Ask HN: Review my iPhone hacking game. (itunes.apple.com)

5 points by pjw1187 ↗ HN
Hi everyone, I just created and had my first iPhone game approved by Apple. I created a "hacking" game that emulates basic computer hacking. I tried to make it so that anyone can play it. I would really like feedback on the UI, do the hints make sense, what would you like to see added to it? Anyways check it out at

You can email me for a promo code at phillip at boomcollc dot com (I only have 10). Thanks!

and pay you $0.99 for the privilege? No thanks.

This is spam. It is a link that asks me to spend money. Maybe you should have written a blog entry about the experience of writing the game instead. That way you could have done your advertising, have added something of value to the community, and not pissed off the people clicking on the link.

Perhaps make a "Lite" (aka free) version, and ask us to review that?

Or go the Canabalt route, and have the whole game playable (with slightly reduced functionality due to not having accelerometers, multitouch, etc) on a website and then a pay-for download on the App Store.
