from fermium to premium?

can i do this? i have an app (Elastik) that i released last weak and I'm really saddened by the sales. DOWNLOADS are HIGH but iAP (full game unlock) are extremely low.
i was just trying to create a "try before you buy" within ONE app instead of having lite versions...

should i change my game to $0.99 and have the full game available at purchase?

    Doesn't hurt to try.

    I'd go with traditional way of Lite and Pro versions;
    If your considering making a Lite version; Would seriously recommend Reading this:

    i dont understand why give users the inconvenience of downloading multiple apps. i also read how companies have more sales with iAP. but i guess i doesn't hurt to try right? I'm thinking f adding iADS to Elastik (free). but when users unlock the full game it'll be removed.

    @3xL - I would have a Lite version and a Full version, too.

    Change the game that is available now to paid, then release a LITE version with IAP and possibly iAds. This is what I did, and it worked great.

    do i make the lite version with everything unlocked as well or only the first ten levels?

    also how well did it work out for you

    As I said; I would highly recommend reading this thread: http://forums.gamesalad.com/discussion/42132/

    It answers all your questions,

    actually it doesn't answer any of my questions. it just says "cliffhanger" everywhere.

    i know about this already. also every app is different. thanks for the thread link tho. it was a good read.

    I'm just trying to understand braydon's advice a little better. :p

    Lol, I'm referring to what you asked as "What should I do, Place 10 levels...." this answers all the questions on the amount of levels and what to put in them, glad it helped somehow,
    Cheers,
