Mr. Jump from the independent studio 1Button collected 6 million downloads in 6 days
The minimalistic runner, created and published by an independent team consisting of only three people, once again proved that mobile device users love easy-to-learn, but difficult-to-play games.
However, it is equally important to understand that the project immediately after the release not only received a feature from Apple in the “Best New Games” category, but also the main banner in the gaming section in the App Store in 140 countries. Therefore, millions of downloads should not be surprised.
The game is developed on the original engine. As the developers noted in an interview with TouchArcade: “we use the native SDK, because we (apparently, to program it, – approx.editors) like it.”
1Button also told our colleagues that ad remover as an IAP in their free game does not work well (however, advertising in the game cannot be called intrusive). IAPs that allow you to buy keys in the game that give access to new levels are much better.
UPDATE:
Cult of Mac developers admitted on March 23 that they earned $74 thousand on advertising, $5 thousand on IAP.
