Finall gonna start something non flower related

[Adam Schmelzle]

Phew!

I've been doing origami flower ports and upgrades for about a year now. Android was so easy to work with that I don't think I really need to work on it much more. I'll be releasing Rose this week(advertising permitting), and any other flower will be dead simple and not require re-coding.

So that finally brings me to the point where I can take a small break to spend time with my new baby(coming soon), and decide on what to do next.

1) I've got the box game that I was working on for iPhone that I could port to android. It's online multiplayer, and the server work was fairly solid(I think).
2) I can port over 'Attack Breaker Pro' to android
3) Port over / new version of 'Attack Chopper'
4) Port 'Attack Brain'
5) Port 'Water Stealers'
6) Finally make the 'Metal Marines' game I abandoned 3 years ago
7) Port and finish the tower defense game I nearly finished last year
8) Port 'Attack Stack'
9) Start something completely different.

I don't know what I want to do. I've got a guaranteed popular game if I make an android version of 'Attack Chopper', 'Attack Breaker', or 'Attack Stack'. Maybe something new though...

After so much work on the flower games, switching to something a bit more core probably sounds appealing to you...
And you can always come back to one of your popular games after that.
Now a more sensible advice would be to check what has the best chance of success on Android. But sensible is boring...
Anyway, choice is good! Good luck!

Yeah, I've been looking at the stuff that gets downloaded, and it's pretty much standard. Action games, brick-breakers and puzzle games get downloaded a lot.

It's too bad there's no public stats on what people continue to play, but that's never been my problem. The only hurdle I ever really face is in getting the initial downloads, so any one of my classic games should do well enough because they fit into the popular categories..
