Hi everyone,
I've been working on a new dual n-back game. It's called "A Life worth dying for" and it will be releasing next Thursday, July 3rd 2014, for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch on the App Store. Android and PC/Mac releases are also planned for later this year.
The game will cost $2.99 when it's released, but I have 10 free promo codes left to share a preview of the game right now. Please take one only if you're actually going to play it. Also, if you wouldn't mind sharing your impressions here, I would appreciate it.
This isn't your typical n-back game, so you should check out the website first to see if you're interested:
If you have an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, you can grab a promo code here, before they run out:
Background about the project:
I stumbled on DNB about 2 years ago and was immediately fascinated with the game mechanic. However, I found that every game I tried was quite difficult and, to be honest, pretty boring. I couldn't play them for long. So I challenged myself to create something more engaging.
I realize that my game deviates from standard DNB practices, so I'm not making any claims in terms of validity (my marketing materials do not promise to make you smarter). My main goal was to introduce DNB to a wider audience, not just the enthusiasts. So I had to make some sacrifices to increase engagement.
I'm also an artist, so inevitably this game is a personal expression of myself. It may not appeal to everyone, but as the graphic designer Tibor Kalman once said "when you make something no one hates, no one loves it."
