What is Reddit's opinion of Social Sessions Game?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

I agree with you personally, but statistically, people are still unlikely to spend any money on a game (I just relased a game on the Play Store, so I'm well aware how unlikely people are to spend any money... check it out: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hestergames.socialsessions).

I actually have a Kindle Fire, so I don't have to worry about installing anything with extra permissions. They've also made their Kindle Fire tablets so cheap, that they're getting a lot of people into the mobile gaming market that weren't there already.

I think they're playing pretty smart, but we'll see how it pans out...

I will try it and give you some feedback (I was at work earlier and I haven't actually played it yet), but I'm not really an expert. I am in the same point as you, I have one game on Android that I created by myself, and I'm about to release it on iOS as well. I don't know any real secret to success.

You need to add more screenshots of gameplay. The first thing I look at is screenshots when I'm judging whether or not to download a game, and your screenshots didn't show me anything about the game. Remove the screenshots of your menus (unnecessary, boring), and add a couple of more screenshots of the game.

Good luck! Check out my first Android game that I released this week, too!

I'm downloading it right now. Can I ask why you put it on the Play Store and not the App Store? I only ask because I'm in the middle of publishing my own first game right now (on Play Store, will be on App Store soon)

This looks really fun. Hey, it looks like you're in a very similar place to myself! I just launched a 2 year game project on Android that started out as a silly little idea. I totally agree with your comment that you probably wouldn't have started the project in the first place if you'd known it would have taken 2 years... but I'm glad I did! Best of luck to you man. Feel free to check out my project as well! (iOS soon!)

Yeah, I just released a puzzle game on Android. I worked on it for 2 years. Solo game development is lonely and grueling work, but somehow fun and addicting too. Feel free to try out mine. It's a puzzle game. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hestergames.socialsessions

Available on Android as well: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hestergames.socialsessions

BTW, it's a "freemium" game: 28 free levels, another 100 levels for extra. Just wanted to be up front about it. No mandatory ads. Enjoy!

I was interested in creating it because I'd never played anything quite like it. I'm no artist, so not visually the most impressive thing in the world, but if you like puzzle games, try it. I think you'll find it compelling. It's free for the first 28 levels, then you can get another 100 levels for $1.99 if you're enjoying it.

Thanks! Try it, enjoy it, rate it!

Thanks for sharing your experience. That's really good to know.

I released my first app this week for Android, and I didn't integrate ads, but I'm trying to decide if I should update to include them. I have a "pay to unlock the full game" upgrade after some free levels, but, we'll see. Maybe I'll give the Underground store a try just for kicks. You might get some attention just because it's new and people are interested in it. (Here's my app, if you want to try it out!)

• Project: Social Sessions Game
• Type: Spreading Awareness
• Promoter: Hester Games (solo indie dev)
• Links: Google Play Store and Dev Blog
• Description: Social Sessions is a simple-but-challenging puzzle game with a group therapy theme. You enter a room with a few people with interconnected relationships, and you have to figure who to "encourage" or "discourage" in order to strategically satisfy everyone.

I just launched it this week for Android, and I'm working on iOS now. You can download it for free. Try it out, and I hope you like it.

I like the original concept. It's weird seeing all the different sized pixels. Kind of messes with the 8-bit illusion. But cool nonetheless.

That's awesome that he's able to launch all at once across Steam, the App Store, and the Play Store. I just published on the App Store and I'm working on iOS now (check mine out if you want... puzzle game).

Good luck to your buddy!

Congrats! This looks like a very polished and fairly well received game for your first. I just released my first, and I'm hoping for at least as much success!
