Nice! It's funny, but I was just reading about a similar game being built, but this guy took 16 months and spent $58K building the app. Here's the post http://forums.makingmoneywithandroid.com/income-reports/16351-expense-report-wordsearch-hero.html http://forums.makingmoneywithandroid.com/income-reports/1635... where he talks about it. His game isn't exactly the same, and definitely has a lot more going on, but there are some similarities for sure.
- quiqueqs 12y agoWow, $35K just for graphics work, and cheaper than the actual development. Definitely something I couldn't afford hah
- dmix 12y ago35k? That seems like a big, risky investment considering he doesn't even have any developers or designers in-house and this is his 3rd app. Although maybe he prefers doing one-offs? I'm not super-familiar with the game scene.
- med00d 12y agoIt seems like this is sort of a "hail mary" for him. He's hoping to make $600K over the next 3 years and he's planning on spending a ton of money on ads.
- cocoflunchy 12y agoThe thread is from march 2012, and his app has between 1k and 5k downloads. I doubt he made a good return on his investment... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rhs.wordsearchhero https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rhs.wordse...

- cocoflunchy 12y agoOops, you're right.
- computerjunkie 12y ago> but this guy took 16 months and spent $58K building the app Wow. $58K is a lot of money for an android game.
