Ok, I'll admit I'm one of the creators of Taptitude...but I really do think it's one of the best free games on the platform (WP7). What do you think?
Our goal is to pack so much value into a single game that it becomes everyone's must-have app. To achieve this goal we go about things differently than other games.
First, we update every week with a new mini-game. We're currently at 33 mini-games and several dozen game upgrades. These all tie together with online leaderboards and meta-game features like collecting stars and buying upgrades with coins.
Second, we listen to user feedback and rapidly incorporate it into the next update. I'm not talking about a single new feature two months later...we are constantly adding new features on a weekly release cycle. This is the reason I started this thread, to hear what you think, where we should go, etc...so the game can get that much better.
Finally, we don't care about the money, we just want to make a great game. Seriously...the three of us have good paying full time jobs and this is just a hobby project we work on at night. All the ad revenue goes to food, beer & server costs. This means we don't have to sell out and stuff it full of pandas and ninjas to attract downloads. We can focus on what gamers really want...making the game fun/addicting.
Please, tell me what you think of the game (good or bad), and how we can make it better. We're always open to new mini-game ideas, upgrade ideas, and anything else that will take this game to the next level.
