After we released Dino Run, we didnt do many portal submissions actually, since alot of them ignored our requests and an equal number had broken submission forms. We just let the game spread naturally and focused on modding the game for licenses. Most of the money we make through the game are for one-off licenses. So yeah, Ive spent alot of time modding the game, adding API's etc. I still do it now and then, almost 6 months after the game came out... Ryan, sorry for the late reply.

Can you give us a little sense of what happened after dino run? Did you do a lot of portal submissions? Did you end up making a lot of versions/licenses or include APIs? Or did you just fire it out there and move on? Hey Miles!

But mainly, it was adding little features that keep track of milestones and trophies. 2nd Question: I don't think beta testing would affect sponsorship, but Im not really sure as we didnt get this game sponsored. Although I imagine that any prospective sponsor would have no problem with extensive beta testing, as it ensures the game is much less buggy.
