    Hi Conner, just picked up my copy. Very nice, glad to see it released! Good luck with it and the adoption! :)

    I like the simple art style and controls, it's a nice way to present the story.

    Hey everyone my parents are flying to china as I type this. I have only had 1 download so far.

    If any of you have an iPad please download today. Also you can help by spreading the word to others you know. here is the link to my website if you would like to share it with anyone. http://www.bigthinkinapps.com

    I you know of any way I can get the word out please tell me.

    Here is a short promo video.



    Any help with getting the news out would be greatly appreciated by my whole family of almost 11. (:

    Thanks

    Conner. I'm very impressed young man. I'm going to tweet this and share around with the hopes of getting you some downloads. Best of luck with everything! Family is what it's all about. Just bought the game and left you a review.

    Hi Conner, a couple things you might do to get the word out is look for adoption focused Facebook groups, Reddit pages, etc and announce your ebook there. If/when you do I would make sure to focus on you, your family and why you are doing this. I think that is the compelling story that would drive people to download your ebook.

    Another thought I have is to do some research and see if there are app review sites run specifically by mothers, I can imagine they would be very sympathetic to you and your story and might give you a review as well.

    If I have any other ideas I'll make sure and post here as well.

    Thanks for the insight. I have contacted 4 app review places that had to with moms and kids. I emailed them on tuesday and have not heard from them. :(

    I can't do the Facebook Idea because I don't have one.

    Thanks for the idea's.

    Hi Conner,

    Don't panic about not hearing back from the review sites yet. Most get so many requests it's hard to keep up. Just keep plugging away, I'm headed off to check out your site.

    Thanks for telling me that, I was not sure why I have not heard back from 15 sites that emailed.
