I'm curious how others are gathering feedback from players about how their game is played. What purchases are being made, how long a typical game is, where people are dying, etc.

I was curious if there was a good solution for HTML5 that will also translate over to a CJS compiled game.

As my game grows closer to being finished, I have started testing it on mobile devices and overall I am pretty happy with the results using CJS. I just want to see if I can optimize anymore. Here is my numbers in debug. The only reason the FPS is lower is because its running in debug, on a normal PC, it runs 60fps file.

Looking at these numbers, I am guessing the image memory is my biggest concern, but I'm not really sure what is bad for the other numbers.

Thanks all.

codah When you die you should get a little Tombstone asking if you want to use your golden brain, did you not see that? How did you die?
kbtbc Thanks for the kinds words. I am trying to keep the game below the 50mb limit for google play. Right now I am at 34mb not including any added Google play services, and monetization. Once I finalize that, if I have room for more music, I will do that .
I really appreciate the feedback.

Plus, what takes you 2-3 hours to make is great for you, I can't do that. That's why there is a market.

Exactly what fldr said. The prices are actually pretty low for royalty free stuff. GUI packs on places like Graphics River will run you 75-125 dollars for a commercial license.

It's going to take a little while for the store to balance out, but people selling on the store should not underestimate their hard work.

I think the store economy will take a while to settle out on pricing. Right now, no one really knows what to set prices at.

I have the same question as shinkan, my paypal address is different than the one I use for the scirra website. Can you add a section to the profile to put in a paypal email address?

I'm working on a new Jam now through The Game Makers Guild. We are finalizing the details, and I'll have website for it up soon. It won't be C2 only, but it will be HTML5 only.
