Both Guess What? and Guess What? Lite have received updates. The Guess What? update is pretty routine, but this makes the first time Guess What? was updated. I’m contemplating where to go with Guess What? I want to fix it up, polish it, and make all our customers happy. (I’d also love to attract some new customers. Go ahead and tell your friends!)
I need to know, however, what features people want. What’s going to make this game even better? I’m constantly adding more phrases. In fact, you can always head over to the Guess What? website to suggest phrases or report bugs! Also, we’ve got a poll on the front page right now with some new features we’ve got planned. Be sure to vote for those to tell us what you want!
Thanks!
Chad
See you, Space Cowboy.

Guess What? was an experiment, an introduction, and a valuable lesson. For me, Chad Stewart, Guess What? was an awesome way to get introduced to iPhone development. It had ups, and it definitely had downs, but all and all I’m glad that we made Guess What? It taught me so much about the entire process of developing, submitting, and (slightly) marketing a game for the iPhone / iPod Touch.

To anyone who has played Guess What?:
First of all, thanks for helping to support us. It means a lot to me that people have bought Guess What? I spent somewhere in the ball park of a man-month creating it. A lot of that was entering phrases and it got kind of boring / tedious, but I felt the game would be a lot of fun. Every time I log in and see that the App has been purchased it validates my hard work.
I want to give back to you guys and give you that same feeling of validation. You paid your hard earned buck for this game. Let me put it to work! On the front page right now there is a poll for the next great feature to Guess What? Because we’re doing another project right now, I can’t devote my spare time to getting ALL of these features in the next update. (Which will be the second update. More phrases / bug fixes coming as soon as Apple approves the update I submitted a week ago.) I’m asking you to go to the front page and vote on the feature you’d most like to see in the next update. I might only get to one of them, or I might be able to add three or four. I have a rough idea of how best to implement these, but that first month I spent on Guess What? was full of surprises. Coding on a new platform is tough a learning experience!
Of course, if you have an idea for the next great feature, you can either leave a comment or go over to http://www.guesswhatgame.com and submit it through there (as a bug). However, if you do leave a comment / submit an idea, I can’t promise that I’ll do it.
Thanks again, Guess What? fans!
See you, Space Cowboy.
