Me and a few friends run a small company. We do software and design projects and work on our own game titles, however most of the stuff released as of yet has been client work. It\'s pretty much a sideproject for us, having fun with this stuff.

Anyhoo, we did an app for for another company, this kids game based around musical instruments and yatta yatta. Not that great really, but... we get the profit from selling it.

We have a full version and we did a rush job with a christmas piano thing, it was released today and it\'s free... should be an iAd on the main menu though.

So... do a brother a favour and download the free one and maybe... click the ad, I want your money.

here be a link

Thanks man! It was a bad joke arising from me not paying attention when other people were talking, ended up becoming the company name.

Not yet, we try to make stuff so that it can be easily ported. I\'d like to but I\'m not sure this could ever sell enough to warrant the effort of porting it.

Future apps, our own games and apps we\'ll hopefully be able to do Android and Windows Phone 7 versions.

btw Phil, does the ad load on your device? Trouble with being in Iceland is that iAd won\'t load ads unless you\'re in a supported country, so all I get is the developer test ad.

As much as Apple touts iAd being simple and easy, it doesn\'t really want to cooperate with some devices.

hmm, suspected as much. Getting it to request ads is a lot harder then it should be. Really seeing why so many are sticking with AdMob istead of going iAd.

We might, first going to see what we can get done through itunes connect. Apple is really slow with submitions these days, reviews take close to two weeks.

I\'m hoping Google tightens control on Android with Gingerbread and Honeycomb. Right now developing for Android is kind of like trying to hit a 100 moving targets in one shot.

Microsoft did something very right with Windows Phone 7 with their very strict hardware rules, makes things a lot easier.
