Submissions for Game of the Month April (AND THE MARCH WINNER!)
Greetings Community!
Apologies for the delay in announcing the Game of the Month for March! We had some catching up to do after Community Love Week!
Without any further delay, we are happy to announce the winner for the GameSalad Game of the Month March...(drum roll, please).....
Congratulations to Mumble Jumble by @Tshirtbooth!
Check out and comment on our blog feature on Mumble Jumble here: http://gamesalad.com/blog/mumble-jumble-gamesalads-game-of-the-month-march
Now, onto Game of the Month April! We are excited, as always, to see your submissions!
A few reminders again about how it works:
Each month for a one- two-three week time period, I will open a “sticky” forum thread for submissions. And the end of the month, the GameSalad team will choose its favorite and announce the winner within the first week of the next month.
We will contact the winner via email within the last week of each month. Each winner will be asked to complete a Developer questionnaire. I will use this information to create a developer bio and to craft a blog post that promotes your awesomeness!
We will feature the Game of the Month in dedicated Facebook, Twitter, and GameSalad.com blog posts.
The Ground Rules:
Submission:
Your game must be complete and published! (We have to be able to play it to know if it is worthy of winning!)
- Just to be clear, this is not a post to simply "announce" an upcoming game.
Apps must be posted within the sticky thread in order for it to be considered
You can submit your app for multiple months (for example: you release updates and would like the game to be reconsidered)
We prefer that you submit with a Youtube video of gameplay/trailer
Contacting the Winner:
In order to be featured, winners will have one week to submit answers to a questionnaire (for us to compile a featured bio).
Preference (if applicable): App has a “Lite” version ready for Arcade upload
Let the submissions begin and keep those great games coming!
Lauren

How old can an updated game be? For example if I update a game with GC Achievements that was originally released at the start of 2010 will it be OK?

** TapCritic: "Sometimes a game is just fun.It keeps your attention, it's challenging, it develops and it has enough options to keep it interesting."
** AppSpy: "A Plinky Game is a game that's one part skill to two parts luck and a whole lot of addictive fun."
** PocketFullOfApps: “It’s not easy being a virtual “plinky-ball” in A Plinky Game with all kinds of deadly obstacles to avoid and thats why it’s a lot of fun.”
** iPwnAge: “If you think Labyrinth is way too easy, this game is perfect for you. Graphics are great, they present everything with top notch graphics.”
** GamesUncovered: “A Plinky Game! is a game that’s somewhat of a fusion of pachinko and wooden labyrinth games.”

And it is under review for the Amazon and Kindle stores.
The last update was just approved and it included GC Achievements, some graphic and performance adjustments and numerous bug fixes.
I'm very fond of this game. It was the first serious game I made with GS.
Edit: Damn, I just noticed I forgot to enable the majority of the achievements on iTC. I hope Apple will answer soon to my desperate appeal

Getting new updates soon now that I have a Pro membership, Like GameCenter online leader boards : )
I am entering my new word game - Wurble!
Wurble is a word game that really challenges your brain to think fast. When the game begins, bubbles fly up the screen, and each bubble contains a letter. The objective is to make as many words as you can from the letters flying up in a certain amount of time. There are 4 modes, 30 seconds, 60 seconds, 90 seconds, and quick shot. In the first 3 modes, you just play for a high score in those time durations! In quick shot, for every actual word you create, your time increases by 10 seconds! For the iOS devices we have Game Center built in, as well as IAP to buy "Freeze time" which enables you to stop the clock for 15 seconds!
The game is free on iOS - and $0.99 on every other device!

In addition to its unique format, this app (designed for iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch) stands apart from the majority of cookie-cutter storybook apps currently out there because of two things: thoughtful, imaginative adaptation of the classic tale coupled with simple graphics drawn brilliantly (animation on every page). The accompanying bonus game (three variations included) is delightful, building memory skills and concentration in a fun way with story graphics.
Available in iTunes App Store - Three Little Pigs - A Play HD

This is my game Cyball. It was originally intended to be submitted as a prototype to atari for the pong challenge, but due to the terrible terms (atari owns your submission/idea even if you don't win) i opted to just make it myself.
Free to play (game haven) Would appreciate reviews from folks too.
Here's my entry for this month, Star Serum
That game shows pure talent and a lot of time and effort went into it, I love it

Good luck everyone!!
I'm sorry but this contest is for GameSalad games only and you're game is clearly not a GS game as its a MMORPG
