Hi Vern,
This is too funny.....A couple of mths ago, I was finally able to find an email address for Pop Cap Games, http://www.popcap.com/
as I play their FREE ONLINE games while waiting for a new CM from MM, to complain about the games freezing up/glitch of some sort. I told them my age and my preferences and stated the nothing on their site came close to MM, and that I not only bought your game, not only became an addict as well as all the other wonderful forum members, but it immensely helps with left and right brain stimulation as well as memory, and that they should check it out. Well, they pretty much said the same thing that Big Fish Games said to you, and GET THIS....THEY PUSHED THEIR
I have played Peggle before.....no big deal. Yes, I have played games from both these game sites, and yes, the only reason that I prefer their Hidden Object & Puzzle Adventure is because they DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING THAT COMES CLOSE TO YOUR AMAZING, HIDDEN SECRET ROOMS, PUZZLE, ADVENTURE, STRATEGY AND SKILL GAME.
I explained to Pop Cap pretty much that the above is the reason that I have not purchased any game from them as the games end up being very boring after a while. And that your MM game is always offering a new twist. As well as this amazing CM forum and great member participation.
Vern, this is just a suggestion, but I think that you are dealing with persons who have an entirely different buying games agenda and perhaps they already know that you would not sell out to them.
It would be great if you would submit our age groups, genders and our testimonials as to how great this game is and that we are now all addicted to it.
If I knew how to set up my own web site, and create those search engine links thru Google, I would swamp the search pages with MM just as other Game sellers do, with a direct link to you when someone wants to buy. You do not have much exposure out there.
Whenever I talk to Apple Care, which sometimes is often, I always promote MM to the Care Assistants. btw: they never heard of it!
I even put a post on the mac forum, promoting this amazing creation of yours.....but alas, I am the only one who has done this on their site. If more of us did that, then there would be more posts and replies, chats about the game and all.....this is what creates exposure. My one sided post is lonely on that site.
Remember, your MM game is not PC friendly, and most employees play games at work on PC's, when they can, without getting caught or on their lunch break....so posts & chats on the mac forums would help create a demand for the game with Mac users.
Those game sellers cater to PC's and only in the last recent year or two, made most, not all of their games Mac compatible.
There are a lot of new Mac owners that post on Mac Forums, asking for games that others could recommend. Check it out under category Apple Games -mac, iPod, computer games - not for console games
