Hello Everyone!
I've taken the liberty of creating a Fantasy Football (NFL) league for XDA this year since I have not seen one at all and I thought what the heck, why not make one.
The league is with Yahoo! and it is a custom league. If you join you can see all the rule (points, playoff dates etc.) It is all very fair and the rules make for a great league and a lot of fun too.
The Live Online Draft is August 4th 2008 at 9:00 PM EST. I know the people on this site are all over the world, so If you really to join but the time is a bad time, let me know and I can talk to other people in the league to work out a better time.
If you would like to join, click the link below. If you have any questions PM me or send me an e-mail [email protected].
The MAX players is 16 so HURRY UP. KICKOFF FOR THE NFL SEASON IS SEP. 4th!!!

The new treasure hunting ability is awesome!
if you want to get extra gem points when you register
When you register,
in referral code, put "4xq8n"
This will ensure that "both" you and I get extra 100 gem points.
Gem points are good for buying items in the game.
how does this game keep track of users? i mean if i wipe my phone as i often do, how will i get my profile back?
New update just dropped. Added a lot of basic alliance stuff and.. you'll love this warsng, the ability to restore your account to another phone(or more likely wiped phone) thru a user id(your ref code) lord name and a password.
I actually play this too. Since I moved from windows to android. add me if you want 5fyk8
I do not know if this has been posted before, but Armed has been released about a week ago. I've been playing it like crazy ever since. Has multiplayer, turn based, etc. CPU AI is pretty hard too.
Check it out here.

It still has a few bugs which may result in crashes every now and then. But it's very stable most of the time. At least for me. Its developers are working hard on some updates that address the bugs/crashes and add new features and maps. I for one don't regret spending 4 bucks for this - in my opinion - awesome game.
I haven't played/test it. I mostly just did some research of reviews. Seeing a good many people say it crashes during start up. They can't play the game. So, just a friendly advisory!
Try powering off your phone. It also has issues for region not being in English/US. So if that happens change your region I think. Otherwise, just wait for the fix.
I love the game, and $4 is nothing for this.
Hi guys.
I'm one of the developers of ARMED!
We're first time smartphone developers... we did a little Java phone development in like 2004, but most of our experience is in PC and console games. Try as we might we had some crash bugs... most of them related to non-US regions.
We spent alot of time before release testing the stability of gameplay... we ran thru hundreds of thousands of automated games driven by special stress test AI, but we made some rookie mistakes in other areas... like not testing the game in different locales.
It also doesn't help that it wasn't till yesterday that we got our first stack traces from Microsoft.... that was almost 2 weeks since our game was up on the marketplace. That's way too slow for the pace of moblie development IMO... we've learned our lesson there are have integrated Bugsense (google it... forum won't let me post links) for the next release.
Anyway the 1.1 release just appeared in the marketplace and it addresses all the bugs we knew of as of a week ago. I'm sure we'll find more, but at least the locale and a couple of dumb crash bugs were squashed and should make it playable for everyone.
Thanks for trying ARMED!
i like the graphics and control. Keep up the godo work.
Are the price depends on our country that we are residing or it's in standard USD.I mean for all the apps in the markrtplace.
Question to the developer:
I am an indie developer with Full-time job, and have my own game on Marketplace as well. How do you promote your game, and do you earn something for all hard work you put into the game ? As I see it right now, it would be really hard to make a living from it.
My game is free (with ads) and recently I added non-ads version of the game for people to donate something, or to disable ads.
What I found out is that from ads you earn ~0
Btw. As I said before your game is really an Eye candy
@Ttblondey
The developer has control over pricing in each region individually if they want to set them.
In our case we set the price for the US region and let it automatically set the equivalent price in all other regions.

I sort of agree... it depends on your app/game. Most of what i see on the marketplace are things one could build in a couple of hours or clones of other apps/games. It is hard to rally users behind you if you don't have a unique and high quality product.
At the current sales/ad rate we could not support our entire company (6 people) with ARMED! sales on WP7 alone. We could support one employee... but not 6.
To me this is a victory and shows the potential of WP7 in the future considering that its only 1%-2% of the smartphone market. With the push MS plans to make over the next few months i expect our revenue to at least double if we can keep the attention of the audience with updates and improvements.
That all said... we are looking at ports to other platforms to maximize revenue from the ARMED! brand and core tech. We're not ready to disclose what platforms those are yet... but it won't be Android.

We're struggling with our ads as well. It is all new territory for us, so i'm giving it some time before i pass judgement.
Our 1.0 release was missing ID_CAP_WEBBROWSERCOMPONENT which seems caused the ad network to not show near as many ads as it could. Still even after fixing this in 1.1 on my personal phone i still don't see ads at times which is really confusing to me. Still i see ad revenue improving, but its barely enough to by coffee for the office.
There is money to be made with ads... people are doing it now. Also WP7 often has a higher revenue on the same amount of impressions... but you have to get impressions.
If your game/app is not attracting users then you won't make money with ads. You need to be seeing 50K to 100K impressions per-day to really support yourself with ads alone. Most developers do this by shipping several high quality apps... not just a single one.
Looks very nice!
better then most of the xbox live games. you, sir, are a hero!
Great game, amazing graphics
I already posted a short review of the game to support you guys:

We're trying hard here to build ARMED! into a fantastic game. It really does help our motivation when people praise and especially buy the game.

its nice and amazing
V1.1 work great , wish more and more item will join feture version.
I did the try on this I like this gamethat said I didn't have any issues with it at all. and when I do a try to use if I like it I'll buy it if not I remove it this game has been bought! I had a ball playing this. and didn't get bored at all with it. though It drove me nuts at times...you know when you don't play it well... over all the game is nice and nice work done on it by the Dev team....it's well worth the money....
Looks really sweet. You should consider porting it to tablet enabled Windows 8 computers seeing as the beta goes live in Feb. Then you would be the first indie to have head to head between phone and tablet
I am happy to release my first 3d game, and also my first paid game. It has been in development for a little bit now and I am hoping to get some feedback on the game. Let me know what you think.
Description:
How far can you make it in "Snowball Run", the winter themed endless running game. Dodge and jump over countless crates to make it as far as possible and beat your previous scores.

Hay!
I'm gonna say you something you'll not like)
It will be really great to see free version to try out physics and to know how it feels.
Screenshots are OK, but there is no video or other way to find out how it works.
Sorry man, I know you was expecting something different, but this is the best thing I can tell you.
I think you need to let more people play your game instead get some paid at your first try..
Greetings!
last year i been making my the first and the only Android game, it's called "i Wanna Save the Fox".
It's currently available on google play!
Game is easy to learn, but hard to master. For patient hardcore-lovers.
During playthrough your main guy will die a lot . Fox dies from collision of any obstacle, mostly from spikes, then you start from last save-point.
Features:
- Good mobile controls;
- Over 30 hard levels to beat;
- Boss battles;
- Secret items;
- Many locations: dungeon, forest and other;
- Classic needle-platformer arcade interface!
Inspired by i wanna be the boshy, you can feel hardcore on your cellphone now!
So, here is the game play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Malander.mws
Look forward for your feedback, fellas!
we made a really simple trailer, check it out
