Hey, busy week, but let me answer your questions real quick, and I'll give more information over the next few days.
First off, yes, PSF Career has been submitted, and reviews can take 7-10 days (or longer, but let’s cross our fingers), so I'm really hoping it'll be available before the big game! It is a separate app, but hold on, I'm either going to make the two games a bundle so you can get a discount, or I'll just lower the price the first week (I like the bundle idea from what I've read).
Second, pricing – I’m reading up on Apple’s “Bundle” support to see how I can discount it for owners of PSF. If I can, I’m going to bundle “PSF 2014” and “PSF Career” (which means you get a discount if you buy both). From what I’ve read, that means that current owners of “PSF 2014” will get the career game at a discount. I’m putting “PSF Career” up for $5, but the bundle will be $8, which means that current owners should be able to get the app for $3. If I’m not able to get the bundling to work, then I’ll just lower the price for the first week and let you all know.
Third, Android. I have to take a mental break here, but then I’m going to research Android again. I had two approaches last year that I thought were going to work, and in fact, I put in over a month of work converting the app to one library just to try this, to no avail. Android is very, very high on my list of priorities - very high, trust me!
Finally, the game itself. I've taken tons of feedback from people and worked closely with a couple of die-hard career fans who tested my app and gave me constant suggestions, and I think that, if you're the kind of fan who enjoys lots and lots of stats and history, then you are going to love PSF Career!
In the next few nights and this coming weekend, I'll work on screen shots and some videos so you can see what I'm talking about. I'll also post some short details here. Thanks for your patience and support, and it'll be worth it!
Why a separate app? To give people flexibility in purchasing only what they want. Career play, with all the screens, logic, stats, options, etc, has grown to be a whole new game, and my test audiences tell me that I’ve nailed it! I’ve decided that releasing “PSF Career” as a separate app rather than an in-app purchase is the fairest way to give each crowd what they want without having to buy something they don’t.
If you want to coach any team in single games, single season matchups, or turn-based multiplayer, then “PSF 2014” is your app! If you want to take over as coach for one team and add in player aging, roster management, drafts, and multiple seasons, then “PSF Career” is for you!
