What a process it is to get a app on the store...but finally it's up there. I decided to keep it cheap($0.99) but I think the game is worth more than that. :D Here is a review that's been done about it already.

just watched the review video!

VERY NICE!

may i suggest though if you decide to add more content make it less simple. Maybe add more types of aliens and different types of guns. That way it has a lot of replay value

oh great price btw

I agree for children under 10 it is OK. Gets real boring fast.

Bob, what I find amazing is you offered to help beta test Super pig but didn't even send any feedback, you instead took a legitimate beta test as a way to get a free game. Not only that but when you couldn't figure out a simple thing like how to remove an app from your iPhone you somehow thought it was my duty to support you in removing it which is a basic operation of the iPhone(Which I helped even though you were rude). It doesn't bug me much that you come on this forum and continue to slander the game out of spite but what really really amazes me is that even though you "hate" the game you would still take your time and money to go on the store and purchase it again JUST to leave a negative review. :rolleyes: Simply amazing....it's apparent you have no idea what it takes to create an application too with such as asinine comment as "It should be free". :p

I enjoy and accept negative reviews because they tell me how to improve my applications but when people just write negative reviews out of spite or pure bitterness it doesn't help anyone.

I'm glad the rest of the 99.5% of you are enjoying the game, keep the feedback coming.:D

Incredible. I'm going to buy this game just because 'Bob' was such a dick about the whole thing.

Looks cute, how do you move the pig up and down?

The thrust button in the bottom left. There is a "training" level that you have to play through before you can start that teaches you the basics.

This developer kicks some ass. He got this great game, and hopefully he will start making more!

He was nice and easy to work with for the beta, and I hope that more games will be out by him later on!

Super Pig is addictive, simple to play, and each time you play, you want a higher score. With the different levels, and the goal to get higher scores, this is a wonderful game to have!

Do not put words in my mouth. I NEVER ONCE said I hated the game. I actually liked the game in beta, but when I asked you a couple questions, YOU became rude and asked If I knew what a beta tester was, and if I didn't understand basic functions I shouldn't have signed up to be one.

When the game wasn't freezing up it was fun, but since I didn't get a chance to play it all that much I decided to buy it and give it a fair shot. I did, and it confirmed my first thoughts. The game has nice graphics, nice sound, but gets pretty boring, pretty fast. My nieces and nephews are coming for the holidays, and I am sure they will enjoy it. They being 10 and 12.

My opinion is just that, and I am free to have an opinion. Don't flatter yourself to think I just bought the game to give it a bad review. That was based on what I actually thought of the game. Others like it, that is their opinion. That's what makes us individuals.

Do you usually give 1 star to apps that you like, have nice sound, and nice graphics? :rolleyes: It's just a major coincidence that we got in a disagreement and my game is the only app you've ever reviewed and it's a 1 star. ;)

You're right, you're entitled to your opinion but the whole purpose of being a beta tester is to pass along feedback so I can improve the quality of the game before it's released. If you thought it was boring you should have told me so and maybe some thoughts to improve it. The only feedback I got from you was "Now I am at the point were I want this off my iPhone. Get it off.".

I don't want to drag this out any longer, I'm sorry you find it boring and if you want your $0.99 back email your PayPal address and I will refund your purchase. I hope your niece and nephew enjoy it.

I have to agree with the Developer on this one too. He has been incredible through the whole process. How many other developers do you see taking the time to post and request feedback to make the experience more enjoyable for the gamer? I think this game is awesome and addictive. For the amount of attention he has given, I would have gladly paid much more for Super Pig! Boboiden...your description definitely sounded like a 3-4 star review. The developer never marketed this as an adult game. It is obvious that you 1 star review is personal, not objective. I personally think that you should change it and let bygones be bygones.:eek:
