Hey guys!
So If you haven't heard yet, I bought full rights to Moon Monkey from Jason Nester. After I had purchased rights, we worked together to expand on the game to add a full store (with costumes, power ups, gadgets, ect.) similar to the JetPack Joyride store. We also added a lot to the actual game. Instead of dying from just aliens, we also added flying meteors and black holes. On top of that, we also added two additional types of aliens. that you can die from with multiple different sizes. We also have some other fun little stuff like a slot machine, ect. At this point, we are officially in beta testing stage, and the game is looking for a release late November/early December. To stay up to date with the progress of our game, feel free to go to the site below!

@Braydon_SFX - LOL!
@BazookaTime - Thanks, not sure what approval times are at the moment.. It's almost that time of the year, so I assume there crazy long.

Would you guys be interested in seeing a video of the gameplay of the app before it launches?

So I just have a little update for everyone.. I've decided to hold off on uploading Moon Monkey until a few weeks after the Xmas rush. I'll be releasing a promotional video around then too.
Cheers

Negative - I think Christmas rush does just the opposite, which is why he's holding out. So many of the big players release not only new games, but put there current games on mega sale. Meaning that people are going to go spend money on that, and the media is going to focus on all of that, instead of the indie games that might otherwise have had coverage. While Christmas may seem like the perfect time to upload a game in theory, its actually one of, if not, the worst time to upload a game for release in my opinion.
