Mistakes or blunders do not happen by choice, they are a result of some shortcomings. Each and every user on iOS or Android loves gaming and apparently the number of games played across the users is huge. There are millions of games out there, but not all of them are installed. Shortcomings as we were saying result in lesser downloads. One of the biggest mistakes which is made by game developers is lack of efficient marketing.
By efficient marketing we mean choosing the right channel of marketing, targeting the right audience, right time of follow up, not investing on the unique selling point (USP), poor research, launching on too many platforms and many others. These small mistakes add up to a huge botch which eventually leads to the decline of the app’s popularity and hence user base.
In this article we will take you through the eight most common mistakes which are made by game developers and we will also help you correct them. Avoiding these mistakes will let you have a great launch and henceforth create a successful product.

Inspired by Twitter and the awesome site wtflevel.com, the angry tweets app is here to gauge Twitter's anger level. It measures the level of swearing and reports how mad we are.
It uses a warning system, similar to the homeland security threat level, with different colors representing different threats. There is also a wtf level that is a numerical representation calculated from the intensity of the swearing, and a percentage level of the swearing.
NOTE: this app contains no profanity in it, you can go swear your heart out on twitter.

Download from the Play Store
The main reason I made this thread is because I need help changing the look of the app. I don't like how it currently looks because it feels boring and is not intuitive, since it's hard to understand if you've never gone to the wtflevel site. I need UI suggestions, and help making it more visually pleasing. I'm usually good with this sort of thing... I make themes (ha ha ha) but I'm stuck with this app.
So help me out, and enjoy the anger of twitter

[GAME][4.0+] 3wave

Someone famous once said something like "It's important to remember that our actions also affect those around us". I don't know who it was, but someone had to say that, just because it's common sense and people are impressed when famous people have some common sense. Anyway. This game is based on something like that.
It's called 3wave because your goal in this is to turn every number to threes. And you do that by tapping them. The number you tap increases by two, and those around it increase by one. Three is highest but numbers loop (three hit by wave turns to zero and tapped three turns to one). Pretty simple mechanics, but later levels are quite challenging.
TL;DR If you like puzzle games then give this one a try. Who knows, you might like it.

Update for this is out. Nothing big. I just deleted all unnecessary permissions.
Because this game is so extremely popular I made a wallpaper of it (sarcasm). It's pretty simple and minimalistic but I quite like it. Used it during the development of this game.

Game for fans of the psychology of personality, for those who want to test their intuition, as well as for lovers of news sites =). In fact, the game is not as daunting as it is interesting. Yes, the eyes say a lot. If a person is angry, and it shows in the photo, it is most likely villain. If laughter is rather a hero, but not so simple. The present good people try not to advertise their actions. For example, the rescuer said: "I did not do anything heroic.'s My job." At the same time, history also knows "smiling maniacs" in which "no one would ever think." It is believed that maniacs are no different from other people (as well as the characters apparently). And you can tell them apart? Distinguish between good and evil? The game used materials found on the Internet in the public domain. The game shows real photos, names, dates and cities. According to this data, you can find information online for more details about on a particular occasion (trust me, a lot of fun).

[APP] Social Platform Integrated Into Train Lines

Hi all!
Please note that I'm extremely new to the world of apps and forums like these so if I've done anything that doesn't abide by the rules please let me know and remove this thread if necessary.
The other week I released my first ever app called Junction. Junction is an anonymous social platform integrated into Australian train lines (will be expanding internationally soon).
Here's the description from the store listing:
"Junction is an app that allows you to communicate anonymously with people around you. You can compliment people, start discussion, ask someone a question etc all without putting yourself on the line to potentially be embarrassed.
There is such a stigma attached to cold approaching people that it creates fear when someone is thinking about talking to a stranger. With this app, the potential for embarrassment/fear is removed, which leads to a higher potential for social interactions between future friends/possible significant others.
Also, it allows for a new, unique way to spend your time on the train.
Meet people, share ideas, create a community."
Here is the link to the free version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.socialinfotech.creation.junctionAdv
If you guys want (and could tell me how) I can offer the paid version at a heavily discounted price for you all if that will help to get more people to download it and hopefully rate it high on Google Play.
Here's a few screenshots:
