@thanhquan1512: keep calm & wait :P
@unlying: oh, what a coincident. Anyway, this one is in action arcade genre
https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=My+name+is+Originality
+ Spine is used for the animation
+ Free-to-play (IAP)
+ EveryPlay will most probably be implemented
My experience was with 2 games: 'Mashball' and 'Bumbee'. I remember something like 'smash ball/ mash ball' or 'bumble bee' but can't find it on Google Play. So again, keyword is really important.
Btw, 'zombie' seems to be a competitive keyword, let's see by the time Guava7 publish it on Google Play.

I have often wondered if the best strategy is :
- Send people to a page with no screenshot but get them to know that you are working on something so you keep them around until you launch (the risk is that they are disappointed to see a blank page and never come back)
- Send people to a page with enough screenshots to get their attention, but with a smallest window until launch to build anticipation
Have you compared both strategies?Good point indeed.
But I haven't thought much about it (thus not tried yet), I just go with the 2nd option according to my common sense and instinct
Meanwhile, see my mockup design for the credits screen

1) "A Dracula" sounds cool. I like it. Since "Dracula" is (was) a particular vampire's surname, maybe "a Dracula" is one of his ancestors, siblings or descendants. However, I think many people would assume it is a mistake. People expect to see "Dracula" without "a". Personally, though, as I said, I am all for it!*
2) I don't quite understand "Join parties of explosion". It does sound exciting, though! What does it mean?

1. Why is the video Mirrored
2. What is the gameplay about?

1. I used my DSLR camera with a tripod, recording from top down the tester playing the game, but in the oposite side. After that I used the default Quicktime player on my Macbook to flip the video, but everything is mirrored
2. Just wanna show a bit the game in action. Do you find it's interesting?
I did find it interesting, but did not quite understand what to do, the message I guess reads, "you can't bomb target" which I did not quite understand from the video.

1. I use AirServer and ReflectorApp.
If you can bring your laptop next to the user(s!) playing, you can record it in better quality.
But watching the way the player positions his hands and searches for buttons on screen is very important too I totally agree.
Well it depends on what you want to achieve
2. This video might work very well for internal work and decision-making (from customer feedback), but not much as a teaser I guess or gameplay showcase.
Everything happening on screen seems very confusing for a non-player point of view.
Question, do you also make a video of the face of players when they are testing your game? This is something I would like to try (device video + face in sync) to analyze even more what their experience is with the app.

Yeah I don't consider it a "teaser" or some showcase. Just wanna release a quick record of gameplay in the hope of getting some curiosity from users (but I agree I could have done it better)
@OZApps
Basically user can't put bombs on top of zombies, what's why.
