Gigaputt on the iTunes Store

Gigaputt, our new golf game has been out for about a month now and has sold decently. We were featured by Apple for a week, which boosted our sales 10 times over. But as many app developers know, the iTunes Store is a giant haystack. It’s worse than finding a needle in a haystack. At least a needle is made of different material. This is like finding a strand of hay in a haystack. You can find the ones on top but finding ones in the middle, well that takes some real perseverance and digging.

Here’e the skinny on Gigaputt:

With the flick of a button Gigaputt transforms your neighborhood into an exciting 3-hole mini-golf course, complete with popping manholes, treacherous fire hydrants, and giant coins.

I plan to have a more detailed post-mortem on the design decisions behind Gigaputt available very soon. But in the meantime check out the game. The post-mortem will make a lot more sense if you’ve played!
