Dev comparison: 2 weeks vs 2 months vs 6 months.

In that time Faceball Captain's gone from a janky prototype to near-ready for release!

#steam page setup is fun isn't it?! I've done many Google Play / App Store pages in the past but never Steam... until this week.

All I need to do now is delay release until next year. Then I'll feel like a proper game!

Fond memories of the original game. Mostly because it kept my 2yr old occupied whilst I went back to sleep.

Is the App Store totally dead for most indies now? Is subscription the only sensible way forward for them on mobile?

It's a good game that was reasonably priced and went viral.

I suspect most of these purchases are by people who already own it on another platform

Haven't played the game but looks like one of those cards that either fizzles out or wins you the game (either directly or through snowballing).

Reminds me of Hearthstone's Yogg which ended being the bane of the tournaments at the time

It won't last, but always nice to see a forever game being (temporarily) knocked off its forever position
