How Much Are Ouya Games Making?

[boredgamer]

It would have to be the most successful exclusive, not everygame on OUYA, even GameInformer did a review of it and gave it a 9.0

You can hate me for saying this, but I don't even understand how it got so many sales with such a high price tag, and such a high review score. There are way better titles on OUYA, maybe not many at the time, but definably now, and to me the game just wasn't that great. I played the demo twice, and couldn't find a reason to justify the $15 price tag, or even keep the demo on my system.

I also don't like seeing it as the game devs look at when looking for whats successful on OUYA.

It's because they went the extra mile. I remember reading that the guy behind it payed an artist or art team to make the graphics. Many Ouya games just don't do that.

It worked out well for him. But it doesn't guarantee anything. I paid for graphics, music and sfx for my game and it may have barely broken even (that's upwards of 5+ thousand dollars.) Not complaining, just saying. I'm doing the same thing with the game I'm making now, except the people I'm working with are more like friends... I'm paying them but we all enjoy what we're doing and stuff. Seems much more fun that way.

I just refuse to credit the gameplay for originality, because its not, and there have been better incantations of the game that will never receive proper notoriety. I've heard of reviewers and players crediting smash bros and golden eye as inspirations for the game, which are far off from the original titles this game represents.

Like I said in the other thread, I really feel Ouya is making a campaing for Towerfall, trying hard to sell it as a killer-app for Ouya.

IMO Bombsquad is better than Towerfall in nearly everything (Including price )

If your game is good, you should get it out on other platforms. RED wont be only on the OUYA - its relative success in terms of the size of the market means we would be fools not to. Dont focus on OUYA alone - maybe soon the playerbase will be big enough to warrant such tactics, but for now not at all.

I think it's awesome that 6 weeks into launch there's are two indie games being argued over which is the killer app
