SMAP ACT[ion]

So I've been rather busy. You can tell by the fact that this blog has been vacant of a relevant post ever since Amit and I completed the Hot or Not app as consultants (see "Fall Retrospect") below.

Over the course of the past 3 months in development and the last month in improvement and maintenance, we've worked on and released Epic Pet Wars... which is a Pokemon-styled turn-based MMORPG for the iPhone, iPod Touch, Facebook, and its got its own website where you can also play (epicpetwars.com). Screens:



What's crazy though is Apple liked our game so much that they called Amit's cell and asked us to whip up some promotional material and artwork because they wanted to feature us. The result is this landing page here: Epic Pet Wars for iPhone & iPod Touch ... as well as the full promotional treatment we started getting yesterday in the iTunes App Store.


Our custom decorated app page within iTunes.


Featured in the main app store. Not just in Role Playing, not just in Games, but the top level freaking App Store.

Needless to say we've gotten a flood of new installs since then, the game is doing great, and our players follow our changes to the game to the T.

As far as other things going on... just miscellaneous obscure stuff. I'm going down to socal next week to visit the fam, gonna see pashypit (see mp3 above) in about 2 weeks, probably heading to etd.POP, going to Colorado for a wedding at the end of this month, and the rest remains to be seen. Mich is up here now, keeping Amit and I's poor lost souls company and well taken care of. Good good that she only lives 3 miles from me now .

Hope everyone is having a great spring. I know I am.
