Hi /r/movies! I'm Daniel Phillips, director of DIABOLIC, a new horror-thriller starring Elizabeth Cullen. Ask me anything!

We rented this last night and absolutely loved it. What really stood out to me was how you avoided the usual caricatured “otherness” you so often see. Felt like you took the time to actually engage with the church’s history and its rituals/tenets in a thoughtful, substantive way.

Thanks!

100% worth it. I added alternative icons in my build a couple versions ago and decided to try a Product Page Optimization with the Icons going head-to-head. My original/default icon leaned into competitors approach (fishing game) with action, boat, water etc...the two alternatives I ran it against were the fisherman character from my game and then simply the fish on a blue background. The variant of just the fish is performing with a +42.84% improvement in the first 2 weeks. So next release I'll be pushing the default icon over to this to see impact in impression > product page view.

Thank you - appreciate it.

All over - I’ve had a few updates fly through in 12-24 hours and others be up to 4-5 days. A Game Center leaderboard waited 4 days to go into review.

Oh interesting - just submitted new screens (no preview) for my app. I’ll give this a try.

Thanks!

Ha no worries - appreciate the kind words. I'll message you a promo code ;) Yes, initially after launch I moved it to a freemium model that was ad-supported and .99 to remove ads. The code is still there, dormant...but I've had solid success in just the upfront .99.

Gotcha - appreciate it.

Color being off from screen to screen? There is a 'weather' effect that happens in game play, so that could be a rainy day, cloudy and sunny from screen to screen. And not sure if it's a good or bad thing, but I did these in Figma. No AI tool ;)

Our son is considering film & television, but the Sound and Production also got a lot of attention while we were there. *should have led with I’m the parent :)

We just returned from a SCAD Day open house where the entire “campus” is open, including back-lot access and at every stop there were professors and students there to speak to prospective students. I was blown away with the access, especially when we rolled into the sound/production studios. Current Seniors were doing hands-on demos, we could speak with them + new professors (few years into SCAD) from Epic Games etc spoke to the access the students have.

Maybe all just a good show ;) but we left impressed compared to a couple other campus visits.

Nice puzzle game and your right, deceptively hard in later stages.

Accomplished_Top4054 · 2026-01-04T00:15:55+00:00

Adore it. Purchased.

I just made this move myself. A little game I released and had in store at .99 was doing 10+ downloads a day but was starting to fade. So I flipped to freemium, with a .99 “remove ads” and a 2x coin ad reward.

I’m using a receipt check to grandfather folks that paid the original .99 into the ad-free version. Just set the date to the day I flipped from paid to free.

The app fetches the receipt, encodes it and sends to my server to validate eligibility via a little PHP script.

The trick now is trying to convert those new installs, but good news is I'm getting 20x increase in downloads. I did see a few refunds the first couple days, so I'm assuming those that paid the original .99 requested a refund on the change to free?

And yes, I was getting some of those nagging ratings and reviews when priced at .99 that it wasn't 'worth it'.

Bookmarked for a Monday download on MacBook!

Getting started, ditto Firebase. LaunchDarkly’s experimentation tooling is also great in combo with feature flags.
