The Dreaded Waiting Game

So people have sometimes said I do not have the best timing

This proves their point.

I decided to push the first version of my app onto the appstore, a day before the new iPhone and iOS was released!

So not only did everyone want to submit updates for the new iPhone, but also updates for iOS!

One week down and no word yet, the app still has the status of "Waiting For Review"

Let's hope apple are able to clear the backlog and get my app on the store this week!

Peace out

Sunday 15 September 2013

Version 1.0!

In what has felt like forever, version 1.0 has been uploaded to the appstore, ready for approval

This version is totally free, contains no ads and is a hell of a lot of fun to play!

TEAM BURCHER WOOHOO!

Game Engine Update

Hi All,

Unbelievable I know, but it appears that I have now completed the code for the underlying engine that will run this iPhone app!

If you could stop laughing for a minute, that would be great! :)

Next 2 weeks it is all about game balance and graphics, to actually make this thing look playable!

2 weeks to go, WOOHOO!

Dudtastic

Such high hopes, and such a low end result

The new developer we hired, total dud.

It now appears that I am going to be doing the coding myself (HAHA).  This is going to be _VERY_ interesting

#gotfail anyone?

In App Purchases

The new developer we hired is working out really well so far

The priority task was getting the in-app purchases (IAP) working so that we can actually make money!

Even though the app will probably be free to play, IAP will give the player some assistance

This is the last major milestone before we look at adding polish

Happy times!

Final Module Commenced

Hi All,

Well we were able to find a really solid app developer from the Ukraine who has taken over the project

He has fixed up a couple of bugs which is great and also started on the final module!  IAP is the first item on the list and should be completed by weeks end

Exciting stuff!

Sad News

Our senior developer has moved on this week, which is really sad news for us

He has done a wonderful job and we wish him all the best in the future!

No app update this week, we are trying to find someone to fill his shoes

Cya next week!

Pawn Shop Tycoon - Milestone One

Have you ever wanted to run your own pawn shop?  To feel the thrill of buying exotic and rare pieces of history?

Milestone one has been completed on our Pawn Shop Tycoon iPhone app!  This milestone allows ingame characters to try and sell you an item!

Below is one of the many items you will have the option of buying!


Be careful though, while some items might generate a HUGE amount of profit, others will be lucky to break even

We are very pleased to announce that milestone one has been completed.  Stay tuned for another update next week
