Does anyone else have experience with this ? I know Germany and Austria might not be the biggest Markets, but i can’t help of being proud about that. But maybe all of this is just a matter of good marketing work … i don’t know, i’m just the coder . But could anyone share some experiences of having his game exposed by Apple like this ?
Nice to see another fellow austrian here on the unity board
PS:
Found out that “Penguin X Run” is now featured in 100 stores worldwide ( mostly on iTunes Home, which means itunes frontpage i guess ? )
The Lite version itself got featured to on 55 stores in the “New Noteworthy”
I guess i have to check back with some people if this is the result of pure luck or some bigger marketing effort…
It’s not luck, it just means Apple likes the game. Had 3 games featured myself, that’s always a nice thing (but not always enough to make a game a big hit unfortunately).
Sometimes even being featured won’t get you a hit. Watch the first day’s sales like a hawk and be ready to drop the price to get maximum number of sales you can. Number of sales in a 7 day period are the most important thing as your ranking, if high, will lead to more sales long term allowing a gentle price hike or leaving as-is.
