Hey dear fellow developer, how have you been?
I’m about to drop Gravity Beats into the market and was thinking if unity ads is worth a shoot.
What do you think? Did you try to compare those two nowadays?
Guess I will add both and will play around them server-side to see how it works.
Will really appreciate any feedback you guys have.

Awesome job! It’s amazing how rare it is to see a game with actual solid gameplay here. Looks like a lot of fun.
Thanks a lot GarBenjamin! Hope you will like a game as well. It should be on play market tomorrow.
Still looking for the ads comparison if anyone has any info please share.
Gonna start tomorrow with AdMob, and report on how it goes later.
In game we have two conditions to show ads
1 - if player crashed 3 times
2 - on level end
Was thinking on using both, unity ads (video) on level end
and admob on crashes, donna wanna flood peoples with videos much.
Guess will try this composition some time.
I love it, appealing simple look, great ship movement, and clearly high level of polish - a winner for sure,.
Thanks SpaceMammoth! Really appreciate a nice word on game.
It took a nice part of my life on polishing for sure.
Looks like a great game, is it possible to unlock the golden features without paying? I don’t like the idea of pay more = higher score/easier game.
Yes Serinx! It’s possible to get all the neat features ingame for absolute free.
Just by basically playing the game. It will take you more time of course, but eventually
you’ll be there. I will also throw few promo-codes for the golden ship,
here, tomorrow, after release, so you can have smoother gameplay faster.
Hey guys. How are you doing? Game is live now! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.NLab.GravityBeats
Promo-codes for the golden ship as promised:
-codes were taken
Please leave a messege if you took some, so I will mark it as taken.
Cheers!
Does some of you guys got any success in self publishing?
Did you try services like appbrain.com to promote
your apps? Would greatly appreciate any help on this side!

Thanks a lot for the input. I’ve seen that service but wasn’t sure on how legit it is.
Now I’ll definitely look at it closer.
Looks awesome! Reminds me of old games such as rocketz, wings , Crazy Gravity! Love those types of games
Oh, man. Those were amazing times. I totally fell in love with Crazy Gravity, so Gravity Beats is kind of it’s conclusion.
I was waiting for CG2 for so long, guess too long… But I didn’t try the rockets! Someone already mention the similarity
of them, sadly I missed that game those days.
Adding some entertaining video:
Also, Wings 1.4 was THE game - I remember installing it on many school computers from a floppy

Interesting. Will definitely try it. Also another examples that peoples have find similar to Gravity Beats were games Thrust (DOS) and Sub-Terrania (SEGA). I checked the other one and it really has interesting mechanics - it allows you to shoot. I wasn’t even thinking on how to add shooting before I saw that, cuz lets be serious - we have a gravity and the aiming sux when you start to fall. But they did it very smart way - RAILS. Basically you press the button and attach yourself to them, then you can move into directions like left, right and spin your ship with up/down, as well as shoot, without falling. Amazing solution.
