This is a very special game. Although it isn't too shiny and eyecatching in the first place, it has true potential to become a new cult game. I wish you good luck with this!

Maybe you should now concentrate on how to sell this, how to bring the idea to the masses.

Yea, just be persistent with marketing and this game should be the next tetris. I am yet to buy it tho *blush* but i will soon.

If you were able to make a phone version of Geom, it would make a fortune!

*sniff* I downloaded V1.2 but I don't have any trial time left from the previous demo :(

Thanks people.

We are looking at porting this to mobile devices but don't have any experience in that field. Any helpers?

@VIP3R, I am trying to find out how to extend demo licences - I'll pm you if I get it working. Or you could purchase it :P

If you download the demo now the trial period should reset if you had version 1 installed

I'd like to buy it Tim but Mrs VIP3R is very strict about me buying games :)

I could do a serial swap for some of our software though ;)

Porting it to mobiles could be tricky. There are a few languages that are dedicated to doing this, but the API's of phones can differ slightly causing compatibility issues. Then there is the marketing side of it which is another kettle of fish altogether.

I would try and sell the IP to a large mobile games company while keeping the rights to PC versions yourselves.

you can become a member of motocoder , thre motorola coder community, they give away free tools for their mobiles.

Thanks for the advice, i've done some research and I can't believe that there are different requirements for different phones. I may try selling the idea to one of the biggies and see what comes of it. At least that way I get a load of cash upfront which will finance the next Indiepath title.
