top new free-racing - General Marketing & SEO

hi all,
I added new game on google play from around 20 days .
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.menagames.cartooncityracing3d
on sensortower and appbrain I can find it on top new free-racing games in a lot of counters , the last thing it was number 39 in uk and number
78 in spain,
but I still cant get a lot of downloads almost 5-7 downloads a day
can any one tell me what is the wrong with my game ?
Thanks

from my point of view that you need AAA graphics in this kind of game. Theres just too many endless running coin involved games. Just my 2 cents.

Thanks for your replay , but even if it's not so good game , but if it's in new top racing category not make any deferent ?

Have you make the press release and approached app review websites to get your app more popular and to get more downloads.

Gameloft giving away Free EVO Games

http://www.gameloft.com/android/htc-evo-games/#
Gameloft is avertising "HD" Gaming for the EVO, with an offer to get 'Let's Golf HD' for free. I have been trying for days and have yet to see the page do anything other than look pretty.
Any one have any luck actually getting anything ?

That's weird that you didn't get anything. It sent me the text to download within 2 minutes, and now I'm downloading the game itself.
Just tried. I was able to get the free game.

this has been going on for weeks, i hope the change the free game to N.O.V.A
This is awesome, I did not know they were giving away free games. I just wish it didn't take so long to download data once you start the game. It's been downloading for like 10 minutes :/
got mine with in 340 sec of entering my number
got my copy.
also bought asphalt after "testing it" for a while.
does anyone know if we get free upgrades/updates??
if so, how? or do their apps auto update themselves?
Ugh why can't they make it a cool game.. golf is boring in real life and video games.
I browsed to that site on my phone last week, downloaded and installed the bookmark app, then downloaded and installed Lets Golf! right after. Then uninstalled the bookmark app .
I just got the text to get my free copy, but I get this message when I open the link:
"Sorry, but there are no games available for your mobile. If you are using a web browser, please try to connect with your WAP browser."
Can someone just upload the .apk since it is free?

It said that for me at first, but that was because I was using dolphin browser hd and my user agent was on Iphone. Make sure your user agent in settings is Android.
Ah, changing my user agent fixed the problem. This is such a massive rip-off of Hot Shots Golf, by the way.
157 MB is a lot.. crazy stuff.. but i got my SMS instantly
Never got an sms. Ive done it 3 times

Huh...I got my about a week ago from another post here. I just went to the page with my phone and downloaded some installer...then the golf game. Deleted the installer right after.
The game isn't all that bad...it's not great, but I have never attempted to play a game on phone before.
The graphics are mostly ok, the fly overs are actually pretty good. The issue is when you notice the trees with blue outlines. I mean SERIOUSLY!! Who let that person have a graphics job. They just used same trees over and when background is a mountain or other trees...then they all have blue edge where they artist just selected the tree and cut it. BLECH.
The controls are a bit touchy...well way too touchy actually. When you attempt to change the target where the ball will land...the grid shifts around all crazy. Very hard just to shave a dozen feet off the distance but still be aimed at the hole.
The hit controls are weird. The easy version seems to slide up and down at random speeds...the advanced version...well I have yet to figure it out...what is a shank and what is a good hit? No idea.
Anyway...overall it has wasted a good few hours total...but super glad I didn't pay for it.
When will Dungeon Hunter be free!!!!!
Sms?.....just install the bookmark app then it instantly let me do the game app. No waiting for a sms....after starting the game 1st time had to do the 157mb file which took about 45 seconds over my WiFi connection and played the game....super easy(not the game)...now I just gotta wait for group or root it so I can save to SD card.......
I actually bought it some time ago, but the one on the website said "HD" in big letters, so I was wondering if there was a difference, like higher resolutions. I emailed them and they said no, it's same bloody game. So the marketing dept. is lying as per usual.
DOes anyone have any idea how to play via WIFI? I have tried everything and nothing works.
Can anyone confirm lets golf is working for 1v1 via WIFI?

Small update in market

Hey all I have noticed that all apps with a different currency now localize and est dollar value. They all are labeled like this : ~$6.49 and not £ or ¥.
Just thought I would share!
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Great news for developers!
I always had to have a footnote in my apps description explaining how much the GBP£ price was in USD$. Its great I don't have to 'manage' this on my own anymore.
First copy protection, then 14 new countries with new access to paid apps, and now currency normalisation.. Seems like google is slowly trying to fix the market issues..
I just wanna share that my market apps won't show any apps on the home screen...
thats awesome!! about time, it seems unofficial without that

Gameloft Games £1!

Just to let everyone know all Gameloft Games for the Xperia Play are £1 for 24 hours!!!! Get em while their cheap.

Cheers mate, thanks for the heads up :-D

Is anyone else having trouble accessing the links to download the games?
My handset isn't loading the 'nopuk.netsizeonline.com' site which enables you to download the relevant files.

Busy changing their credit card details
For the past few hours the site hasn't worked. I managed to start to download the APK for a game before I was having problems, however it failed.
I can now access the site again, but all games are showing as £3. What's going on? I assume the offer has finished, but I wasn't able to take advantage of it because the website wasn't working... :-(
Also worked fine for me, have an account, so just a simple login and one click buy :-D Got three games...
Regards Dousan...
I got me a fivers worth, thanks for the heads up.
anyone else bought assassins creed and thought £1 was way to much to pay!
ive had more entertaining farts.
Thanks for the heads up, got another couple
Their Support is disgraceful, I have been emailing them daily for the past 2 weeks with zero replies.
I had bought 3 games before I flashed my phone, then lost them & have been emailing support for fresh download links but they are ignoring me. For anyone else with same problem, I figured out a workaround - the initial small file that you download got saved to my SD card under the download folder of my Dolphin browser. I just installed from there & it let me download the 200Mb portion & all is working again.
I bough 9 Games while there £1 haha, i cant get modern combat 2 to work though, it launches the first time to download the data but then force closes, i mite try deleting it and installing again
Lol, I bought splinter cell yesterday.... wondered why it was only £1

Need for Speed Shift Now "Fake" FREE for Xperia Play owners

Go to Xperia Game menu and get it
Will check it later ! I need to write to Gameloft first!
Got the version 1.0.4 from Gameloft for Rainbow Six and this one works ! Finally (Version with the additional 1 MB to download)
Still Sacred Odyssey Not working ...
Update: This game is mentioned Free but in fact it's not a Free games it's a trial Game.
EA might need to check the definition of FREE on dictionary...
EA sucks as usual when it comes to customer care...
EA sucks on making Android Games since Asphalt 6 is at least 10 times better that this "Bip"
Sorry people I really thought that it was free since it was mentioned on the Xperia App and i should have checked this before posting but you know that those company might give some oportunity to download only for a day.
in canada with rogers, dont see it atm.
I am with Rogers but it looks like the trial games like sims 3.
The Tom Clancy one had FREE on the icon.
Do you know if it is a trial?
Edit: I wont kow until I get home and try.
Not seeing it yet in us. Pay or free.

Its free just doesnt say it on the icon. Says on the download page. I hear spirderman is next on the freebie block
Sent from my R800a using XDA Premium App
You have to go into the xperia play app (when you slide the screen up) and select More games on the bottom and it should be in that list. If not you need to update your play app. I had a bunch missing until I updated the play app.
For me Tom clancy and asphalt 6 had/have FREE on the icon and the ones that just say free after you go in where just trials. I'm keeping my finger crossed. If any Canadians can confirm this please do.

Also If someone got the APK of the free version of Rainbow Six that worked with firmware 2.3.3. I'll be grateful if this person could kindly PM me and sent it since my version doesn"t work. (v1.0.1) and didn't have the time to get it while it was available here...
I need the version with the additional 1 MB to download

need for speed has always said free on the ea shop, you buy it in app with a premium rate sms
that explains it. The EA ones are trials and the Gameloft ones are full free games.
Edit: Had me excited there.
I can confirm the Tom Clancy game is the Full Game. Not Demo in Canada. make sure you have a bit of time to DL tho.
And its Fun! heh
Didn't know that sorry But it said FREE for me it was new and never happened before.
I have gone to the EA store and got the apk there. and installed it.
For the moment i'am still working on making rainbow six works and to tell you the truth since now one week i'am writing to gameloft concerning this problem and they seems to have corrected the problem on both games Sacred Odyssey and Rainbow Six but i don't have the update prompt and it makes me mad.
that's why for the moment i was a little busy and didn't have the time to test NFS.
I will do my test later today and post here concerning the release i got. If it's just a Trial i will put that in the First Post and might change the topic too.
Please continue to check it might be a real full version FREE.

i went back to 2.3.3 because people said rainbow 6 and sacred were fixed but neither of them work for me
*reaches for xperia play*
Rainbow Six now works for me i'am gonna check this NFS right now.
Keep checking the thread
Great Rainbow Six WAS actually free here. But the game somehow didn't worked. After checking it again on the Gameloft page it says 3,49€ -.-.
Is it allowed to ask for the working apk here?
Rogers Canada here.
It doesn't say the free icon but it is free.
EDIT: is anyone getting the free trial message?
Sorry thread need to be closed now don't bother posting

Modern Combat 2: Black Pegasus

I think this game is by far the best FPS for the xperia plays gamepad. I hated the controls in this game at first but grew to love it.
I set the contols to: move, Shoot, aim and use the directional pad to move and gentle taps of the rights stick to aim and it works flawlessly and very accurate.

I'm gonna go ahead and dissagre with you. I can't play that for **** whit its controls haha I think BF 2 is far more better Better controls, better graphics and so on But that's just what i think. And Rainbow six has a killer multiplayer
I dont know i think batttlefield controls are hard because you have to sort of flick or else you'll overshoot every time whereas modern combat 2 you tap on the right pad to aim. Soo much nicer to play with and alot more accurate. What setup do you use in battlefield and i'll give it a shot

when buying from gameloft, are the installers individually signed to your device, email, phone number, or whatever to prevent piracy? you see, i lost my installer for Modern Combat 2 Black Pegasus, accidentally deleted it when cleaning my SD card so I'm asking gameloft to give me another copy and I've been asking them for ages and still no freakin solution. they just replied once asking for my details and the receipt and that was 3 weeks ago!!!
so if it's not signed and all copies are the same (among the same phone models), maybe you can share to me your APKs for the Xperia Play via PM.. I swear I bought the game! Gameloft just has a crappy customer support. :[
Gameloft games are tied to your account. You just go to the site on your phone and enter your email and phone #. It gives you a section called My Downloads.
Asking for paid games is against the rules here. Even in PM's
Well i didn't know it was to tied to the account... and the My Downloads page thing using their website isn't working (saying I haven't downloaded any when in fact I have downloaded loads of games from them) that's why I posted in their crappy forum in the first place. I'm not dumb to not know that. In fact, everything in their website that is tied to an account doesn't work.
And I'm well informed of that no-warez rule here that's why I was asking FIRST in my previous post if it is tied to the account because if it's not there's no license thing to it. Since you said it is tied to accounts, then now I know.
I called thier 1-800#(or whatever) and they sent me texts with a direct link. They will answer the phone.
Try that.

each device has a unique ID, and so does each gameloft .apk, at first run, each .apk is paired with the unique id of the device running it, after that, the game will only work on the device it was first run on

If I may ask a followup to this, do you know if say a while from now the Xplay 2 comes out and we want to upgrade, will Gameloft allow you to re-download an app you paid for to a new device? Or once its bought and paired you're done. I realize the physical file is paired, but I wonder if it broadcasts this data back to their server as well.

Yeah thats what it does, thats why you need an internet connection the first time you run a game, the game check the apk's id against the paired ones in the database, and if it comes back as already paired, the game quits or gives you the piracy warning
If I was to say get a new phone I would call and have them issue the games again.
But I believe it is tied to your account. I have flashed my phone and when I went back I had to enter my phone number and email address to download them again.
Hell the controls on the updated version (1.0.0) sucks ****..
controls on v1.0.0 for Xperia Play is so ****ed up, any solution?
I dont want it,hard to target,iprefer rainbow six
This game was out of my phone for months now, until yesterday I saw the game's changed icon on the Get Games app so I decided to try the game again hoping the controls were better. And hell yes, they're a lot better. The game is playable now, except from one bug I noticed that kept me from advancing through the very first mission.
Everytime the cinematic shows up where a burning barrel flies toward the player in slow-mo, the action button appears but doesn't seem to be functional. When I touch it, it disappears and my player just stands there and lets the flying barrel blast him into space dust.
Anyone care to try and report back if they experience the same? This is still a good FPS imo especially now that MC3's aim controls are kinda screwed up too with the new update.
If you're on v3.3.9 or earlier, I can agree that MC2 controls are okay.
If you're on any version newer than that (when they reset the version count to 1.0.0) then you're crazy

Its been a while but IIRC one of the game pads buttons functions for the action button, it may have been X or Square or the right trigger, I forget. I remember having a problem with that part when i first played the game.
Hey bros I have a problem, I played mc2 via online and I am level 72 user but when I finish some game ir says that I am 58 level, and when I start a game it says I am 63 level, can somebody tell me what is wrong with my game.

Gameloft is whats wrong with it. Their server that tracks your games doesn't realize 3/4 of the "badges" i earn, and screws that stuff up too.
