Easiest contest to enter... details at the bottom of the post Hey all, james here from RvsW!!!! Starting friday morning Star Pilots will be free for the weekend!! This game spent a long time in development and sales have been somewhat lackluster. It had a good run but died down a little quicker than i had hoped for an ipad game anyways. It didn't get a many ratings for the amount of downloads it had so assume people don't delete it often lol Important to know: It is a specifically a split-screen game for ipad It requires two people, which may be why its selling slow. Also, Its pretty easy to download it and assume how it would play with a friend but, to really get the feel you need two people or it just doesn't work. I hear a lot about adding more levels and I may consider it if it picks up a bit. However, over all i wanted the simplicity of air hockey but with a shooter concept. The game is about the interaction. I also know that if 99 out of 100 people fire it up and say it needs more levels then..... well... Anyways it will be free for a few days so i hope you enjoy it. Oh yeah I probably better give something away.... at the end of the weekend I'll randomly select someone from this thread for a $10 Itunes gift card or one season of Star Trek Voyager of your choice from itunes...

Game looks cool, I'll check it out for free. You should talk with one of the free app a day websites to see if they'll put up your app on Saturday. Should get more exposure that way. goforce Well-Known Member Aug 29, 2010 49 0 0 #3 goforce, Sep 3, 2010 Woo Great! thanks for making it free! =D new game for the weekend! robotsvswizards.com Well-Known Member Mar 29, 2010 563 1 0 Game Development, Music CA, USA Http://www.rvwgames.com #4 robotsvswizards.com, Sep 3, 2010 Thanks I totally appreciate any advice and the post However I can't speak for all of the sites like that but most are sort of scammy. Just making an app free can have almost the same effect due to all the sites and tweets that list the games that go free every day. It's nice that FAAD leaves your game up for a week but most people go there for the free apps and not yesterdays app that is not free anymore. I actually had a game shoot all the way up to top 10 in it's category just by making it free. The real problem is that when you put it back at a buck it goes back down to the bottom of the ranks. The only way it helps is if it is good enough to start a buzz while it's free. Which is rare Because now people have to now about the game to even find it. bone.rate Well-Known Member Sep 15, 2009 528 4 0 3425711888 #5 bone.rate, Sep 3, 2010 Thanks for the game. Been playing it with my bro since morning. secondtime Well-Known Member Oct 19, 2009 1,713 0 36 #6 secondtime, Sep 3, 2010 Thanks - got a code earlier and left a review. Controls are smooth, graphics fairly basic, but well done. I would like a mode to play against the computer. Would be fun for those times when my kids want to do something else. Additional Zones would also be fun and provide more challenge. Perhaps powerups or extra weapons could be in the field and could be a race to get them. Overall, simple fun shooter game.

Just my 2 cents... goiMot Well-Known Member Oct 21, 2009 5,079 0 0 Physician #10 goiMot, Sep 4, 2010 Thanks for the freebie, I'll try it later today (I really enjoyed Buggies, great little game). robotsvswizards.com Well-Known Member Mar 29, 2010 563 1 0 Game Development, Music CA, USA Http://www.rvwgames.com #11 robotsvswizards.com, Sep 5, 2010 Yeah I agree 100% I may keep it free for a while longer so long as it keeps doing ok on the free ranks. Really nothing to lose It broke top 50 over all and top 10 in arcade so that's nice. robotsvswizards.com Well-Known Member Mar 29, 2010 563 1 0 Game Development, Music CA, USA Http://www.rvwgames.com #12 robotsvswizards.com, Sep 6, 2010 ok so ill PM a winner in the morning out of the posts here thanks for checking out the game during it's free run!
