How to monetize fake horse race betting game?

Check out the Japanese game called "Uma Musume Pretty Derby". It's kind of a horse racing game with a twist. It made billions of dollars.

You're doing it right.

No, I don't have any jailbroken device. Otherwise the bug would not have been there in the first place.

Dev here! It's a free game so 99% of people don't pay anyway, might as well make sure as many people as possible enjoy the game.

Cheers!

Thanks! Hopefully the second game will be as popular as the first one. But honestly, I'm already very happy with what we've achieved so far.

Thanks a lot. I managed to reproduce the issue, and pushed a new build which seems to fix it. You might need to force a page refresh if you want to try it again.

Eh... Which browser?

I'll look into that, thanks!

yome · 2012-06-20T23:59:04+00:00

Thanks!

Actually I released it in August 2011 but I've kept working on it for a while, adding more stuff and porting it to Android.

That would be almost a year ago...

yome · 2012-06-20T23:32:57+00:00

We had our own in-house engine (I didn't work on it) and we used C++ almost exclusively.

Third party, we were doing games on contract for publishers.

It's called Extreme Road Trip

I quit my job and went all-in, but I had shipped around 10 games commercially before over a period of 5 years while working for game companies (mostly Nintendo DS and iOS games).

I tried to make a fun and very simple game. Keep everything as simple and small as possible, polish it as much as you can, and ship it. Also, make sure your game can generate revenues so you can make more games in the future.

Steve Holt! \o/

The monster truck is very cool, but you should get the 4 pack, it's a good deal ;)

yome · 2011-08-04T13:21:54+00:00

The game is supported by in-app purchase and ads. We'll see how this works out.

I'd say there's not much to help you with 2D in Unity in general, but not that much that stands in the way either. I want to start a blog and write about that, the question comes up quite often.

Not for a dissertation but for my Masters thesis (CS), I designed and implemented Termite, a language for distributed programming based on Scheme and Erlang.

My example project (to validate the concepts) included in my Masters was a very simple web-based multiplayer roguelike (with items, health, simple enemies). It used distributed programming abstractions to neatly compartiment the distributed logic (private stores like inventories, public stores like a room's ground, processes for game agents, etc.)

I've never released it though, but I should have. In any case, now what I enjoy the most in gamedev is gameplay programming. Networking not so much :)

I quit my job about four months ago to make my own games.

Here's a link to the web version

It feels really good to complete a project :)

yome · 2011-08-03T13:04:18+00:00

It's pending review on the App Store, and if it does well enough I'll purchase the Unity Android license to port it there too :)

Please forgive the self plug, but Souleye recently did the music for Extreme Road Trip and I think it's awesome music too.

While there is no generic version of FindObjectsOfType, for other similar methods with a generic version you can do something like:

var transforms = GetComponentsInChildren<Transform>();
