Tiny Domination

This game is an RTS in which you build up some planet resources and try to take over every planet on the map.

Flow

Pretty simple and can be boring. Basic premise is to move your mouse over things to destroy them and prevent them from reaching the center of the screen. Great music though. Best I’ve made so far, but it still has some aspects I don’t like. “Unwinnable” – get a high score!

Defender of Avior

Hands-off; you have pretty much no control in this game, but it’s somewhat an RTS. You just gotta produce a lot of units and defend against the enemy onslaught. It never ends, so I categorize it also as “unwinnable” – get a high score.

Okay so all of that was fun, so let’s look at the future. First off is that the Playbook OS update kind of killed my game’s FPS due to a bug that made some aspects of HTML5 slower. I am going to remake this game from scratch, NOT using HTML5 so it actually gets more than 1 fps again. In the meantime, I’ve removed it from App World completely to avoid giving users a bad experience. Sorry about that, it’ll be a while before I get around to the remake.

Also of interest is that I’m working on another game for the Playbook. This one will be my first commercial game and while I do not expect it to be very successful (probably < 50 downloads total with maybe 5 in the first month) it’s a necessary step forward for me. I’m really gonna pull out the polish on this one! I’m also planning on making it a fairly simple and short game, and pricing it at $0.99. With any luck I’ll be done with it and submitting by the end of this month, hopefully a bit earlier.

Keep your goals realistic people! I have pretty much nil budget, much less any marketing budget. I’ll be looking into this more though as I near launch.

For now I need to replace the default wordpress theme. I’ve also disabled comments globally because in the year or two I had my previous blog installation, I had only about 5 legitimate comments, and although akismet did a fairly good job, I still had a lot of spam to clear our manually.
