Very original design and concept

Looks great! I like the French "twist" you put on it. I still like the original Rocks! trailer the best, but this is a close second.

Definitely one of the better games you have released this week.

Good luck with sales!

JoVe

Thanks!

I'm going to go eat 5 different types of raw cookie dough in hopes that I don't wake up in the morning.

*Uses psychic powers*

I see... I see... A tower defense game, NO WAIT! A train trax game in the future!

*Collapses on the ground*

Are you asking for a serious critique or countering GR remarks?

This trailer was better, I like the gameplay. But you really breezed over Paris, I mean that city is rich with centuries of history.
Do you think you can add more photo's to the slideshow, so we know a little bit more about Paris?

I haven't pictures for it!
And I live in The Netherlands.

I agree with Andrew. Everybody is familiar with the Paris landmarks. It would be nice to see some side streets and lesser known buildings.

Sure. I think you need to work harder at taking a template and really making it your own game. I know there are some great people who make some great templates but you really need to use them as a starting point for making something that is truly yours.

Everyone has their own creativity and I know that you can do better.

You at least should change the art up or even the theme. Using a template is fine, but it would look better on your part if you changed at least something up. Putting the flag at the menu screen isn't exactly "making it your own"

I have change this game to my one.
The pictures are the things that I had in my head.

I have change it very much!
This template stands also without changes on the App Store(From someone other)!

I would make more pictures as I am in Paris!

I think it works better matching 3 or more items like in my original template.

I understand you but than must you touch very much the mix button!

firemaplegames

I agree with JoVe that making it match three would make it too much like this game already on the App Store: http://itunes.apple.com/app/cookie-match/id452640357?mt=8

Even though I'm sure that the trailer for that app doesn't contain any photos of Paris, you still don't want people confusing that version with this French one.

You might even try making it "match one" to change it up a bit.

Or maybe save that for the sequel later on in the week. I can already envision the trailer for it.

This thread is killing me!

I had see that one later.
I think match one is too easy!
Do you think?

You can use less cookies for eg if you use only 3 cookies your more likely to get a match.

That's also possible!
Thanks for the tip, I would think about it!
P.S. I like your Tower Defense template!

Dang! It's a shame someone beat you to publishing the template to the AppStore, and that you had to go through the hard work of adding a French flag to the title screen to make your version unique. I really feel your pain...

At least you put some small effort into making crap yet somewhat amusing videos.

On a slightly different note though, it's a great template from Darren/Wayne, and was worth the purchase just to see how they worked out the logic for the actors. Now then, maybe if I stick a German flag on the splash screen and give the chef a little Hitler moustache to give the game some cultural authenticity, I could be onto a winner!...

JoVe

As you alone would destroy this game don't say than something!
I have change many more!!!

Download the game and see it!

Can we look forward to a French Tower game!?

Hi. I submitted a game using DBA match template. New theme and art, help Screen, score and highscore with gamecenter, and particles. I think it is ok.

@Dhondon: Priceless!!

I wonder how many devs there are in the app store now publishing templates?

If it's more than 0, it's too many.
