You don't have any radiation shielding.

Why not try surviving under the ocean first? Fail Squad NASA.

Huh? Of course it is art. Look at all the random graphics and movement coming together to form a 3D street animation.

1.) people can take away a lot from the code and animation which makes it a great example of a new art form. The street scene in oarticular conjures up emotions.

2.) just because a group of the Internet does not understand or appreciate art in all its forms, doesn't mean anything at all except they are ignorant when it comes to identifying artwork.


I hope the cops stay non-violent this time.

Good to know that people are prepared for violent, over-reacting police this time around. Bunch of thugs.


Can you share your market research that backs up 100K expected users and your marketing plan for reaching your audience?

Also interested in your overall business plan.


Here are the current steps we're taking to maximise downloads: - ASO - Business model (free app with IAP) - PR (at launch) - Market through previous apps (close to a million downloads in total) - Try to get featured :D (a long shot, but we're at least doing our steps to maximise the chance)

Other than this we're using the Bullseye framework to test figure out which marketing channels which will be useful in the future, as we don't know this yet. But by analysing the most successful ones in this niche, Smule, it's very likely that thekey is managing to build the community around the app. This is one of the reasons we're putting a lot of effort into the community within the app.

100K downloads is totally doable in this niche, but it's hard.

I'm thinking about writing up more about these things on our Launch Diary:

launchdiary.postagon.com

So I'd be happy if you'd follow it :)


Programming is awesome. I noticed your domain says porgrammingisterrible.

Aren't you tired of being wrong all the time? Why are you bothering people who enjoy programming?

Classic troll.


Are you aware that the person who posts a link is very rarely the person who wrote the original post?

If you want the writer of the original article to read your comment you should contact them directly.


Yahoo did this first. They weren't keen on the peanut gallery making inappropriate comments on serious articles.

I have a peanut gallery, I mean Comments button on my website for my mobile apps. It sends me an email and sits in a moderation bin. They are always support oriented so it works out great. This way spam is also directed to my email instead of the website.


Link to article is broken.

Looks like a paywall error.


Fantastic!


Software needs to up its game. Systems should have prevented the requested parameters.

Jet fighters do the same thing: convert control to the flight systems within an envelope.

Both incidents seem to involve ignition, so that seems to be an issue.


Wrong income stream.

Charge directly. The users have control now, better make with the changes or face loss of business.
