Great logic, haven't thought of that, although I guess devs who released all-done versions of their apps don't experience any of the issues. You see, it's the first game I've ever written (my day job is working on real-time market data distribution software) and I fix a lag here, add more levels, or a new feature and ooops, the frustrated users who couldn't download, install or experience crashes start rating ASFP. > Everybody's expecting lots of Android phones to be > released this year, and each one will bring lots of lovely new users > checking out what's available on the Market. I guess you're right but I was worried the game will get worse and worse ratings because of the infamous "Force Close" issues, hence this post. > Right now your game is > number 27 of all paid games, and if you take it down that can only > hurt your momentum.
