    Apple Just released new App - need your help!

    I took a break from my main project to knock out a small little app called Flappy Farm! - inspired by Flappy Birds but with a bit of polish!



    I would really appreciate it if any of you guys who have iPhone/iPod/iPad would take the time to download it and rate it for me.
    It would be great if you played it as well

    It is completely FREE!
    Here is the link to the App Store: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/id853444898?mt=8

    'Arcade Mode' is the ultimate test of skill, timing and patience. How far can you flap?

    Collect and keep track of all Gold stars and coins to achieve the ultimate 100% prize.
    Do you have the endurance?

    hahah thanks guys, and yeah it does get really frustrating.
    I'm a bit immune to the difficulty as I played while coding it and testing etc so I am pretty good at it lol!

    Thanks for taking the time to download and play, I really appreciate it

    Any feedback good or bad is also welcome.

    PS. Don't forget to rate and review the app on iTunes/App Store if you (or partners/kids etc) would be so kind!

    PPS. If you're feeling extra nice you could also like the Facebook page

    I'm working on an Android version at the moment aloogobee, but there is a lot of device fragmentation on Android so it will take a bit longer to get everything ported and looking right on all the various resolutions.

    It is on the way though, and I'll post when it is out - thanks for the interest!

    Thanks to rIKmAN

    I'll put a review on the app store later today. It's well made. One thing I did do was fly the chicken into the "ceiling" in escape mode, it ended that go but I reckon the chicken would have dropped enough for me to flap it through the next gate. Just wondered if the invisible ceiling could go up a little bit?

    If this is merely a side project then what's your main project like?

    Did the chicken go all the way off the top of the screen, or he went off a little and died when he shouldn't have?
    I will have a look at raising the ceiling in the next update for you, yeah.

    The main game is a virtual pet game, but waaaay better than the usual pet apps.
    Can't say much at the moment, but I will post here when there is any news and I am looking for alpha/beta testers.

    I cannot say for sure I will port to Windows Phone, is there a market, I will have to do some research!
    Yeah is going OK considering the only advertising we have done is here, facebook and a few forums etc, we are currently ~250 in the UK Arcade/Family charts, which has climbed a little each day since launch.

    Thanks everyone for your time

    Flappy Farm! is now being featured under New Games on the front page of the Arcade Games and Family Games categories in iTunes and the App Store in the UK, for both iPhone and iPad!

    Thanks to everyone who already downloaded it, hopefully this will get more eyes on it and with it being free hopefully this will get a few more downloads.

    Thanks to rIKmAN

    Have any revenue model to this app? have you got advertising on the app to generate income if takes off could be a nice little money spinner ;-) just curious as I am writing me own apps at the moment.

    Thanks rev

    akimba, yeah I have adverts running within the app. I use a banner ad at the bottom of the screen, although it is placed such that it doesn't get it the way of the game or the the field of play.

    I also show a full screen interstitial advert after a preset amount of deaths.

    its not a lot of money but it is bringing in a little every day atm, I won't know if the front page placing will affect anything til tomorrow as the stats update the next day.
