Yes if you miss the top bun, more will come. They fall randomly throughout the level. No you don't have to catch every burger that falls, part of the game is to avoid certain ingredients based on the type of burger you are making. There are no lives. Getting the wrong ingredients on the burger just affect your tip percentage, which affects how much money you make, which affects how fast you become C.E.O. but the game ends if you get a bun before you finish off the burger ingredients you need. Getting the same color in a row will not increase your tip percentage, but getting the correct ingredients and not missing ingredients you need to fulfill the order will increase your percentage (this is kind of like the multiplier part of scoops) Overall, worth $.99! and different enough from scoops to entertain you even if you have scoops already.
I think we will hit 100,000 burger served today! woot! Also, whoever pete is with the $611.84 skyburger, I can't believe someone is already close to taking me out of the #1 spot
This is what I find astounding. Taking the figure of games sold so far, you've made a whooping $1881.60. Divided by everyone involved. Peanuts 100-200k is what you should be getting at least for an app like this.
Probably depends on how many people made the game (just 2 vs 1 halves your profit) and what area of the country you live in (living expenses).
Oh come on give us a hint. You are already planning the next Nimblebit game. You said so a few pages back.
I finally bit yesterday and need to give you guys some props on how you so ingeniously you fused the concepts of a hard end and endlessness. Burgers get increasingly complex and huge as you successfully fulfill orders, fail one order and you need to start over with basic burgers. So, sure, you can never lose, per se, but if you can keep the burgers served up appropriately with minimal missteps you will climb up the ranks much quicker than the guy who needs to start off from scratch every other burger. Pretty ingenious design there.
Over 100,000 burgers served, 10 days on the App Store http://www.nimblebit.com/2009/04/sky-burger-over-100k-served/
after watching that video, I instantly bought this. My wife played scoops on her iphone and I was jaelous, this looks even better! played during lunch, WORTH 99c. Hell, the production quality on this game is so good it can easily sell for 2.99. Its about as polished looking as flight control and has a lot of depth. The graphics are great! Game is responsive, you can definitely feel the difference between level 1 burger and a level 50 burger!
