You´ll see Jewel Match on more portals soon and also on Mac. :-)

well done! I've been following this one with interest because I've nearly finished my BlitzMax Match-3 game too which will be on BFG shortly.

Looks quite good.

Grey Alien,
I'm looking forward to see your Match-3 game !

Hi Pingus.
I just want to ask you a rude question and it's ok if you don't want to answer but here it goes:

Do this kind of game actually bring in some money?

The reason why Im asking is that Im looking for ways to actually bring in some money with my developements and I wonder if this is a way to actually get something back of all the hours spent on a game.

Pingus: Sure. It'll be on this forum soon. I've already made two match-3 games in BPlus and the new one is in BMax. I played your demo a lot to look at all the details, like I do with all match-3s - it's seems very nice and of course is doing very well.

AJirenius: Let me tell you that if your game gets into the BFG top 10 for 3 weeks, you are making some money for sure. Depends how much the game cost in the first place whether there is a lot of profit.

Ajrenius,

Do this kind of game actually bring in some money?

Ah well, not a fortune, but yes it can (hopefully) bring some money. The issue is to have more than one game to sell, which takes some time ;-/
