Hey everyone!
I want to know if there is anyone else that started out using the clickteam products and is now developing for the iphone (or similar)?
If so, I'd love to see what you've done and do you have any advice or suggestions for someone thinking to do the same?

I've been working with the iOS exporter, and I personally love it. Apple's method for getting the app actually released to the public, however, is, imho, completely over-complicated. But after you get the hang of it, it's really great.
The first app I released is here -> http://www.create-games.com/forum_post.asp?id=290906, and I plan to get out an RPG and a arcade-type puzzle game in the future.

I'm excited to see what you guys make. Send me a message when it's all up and running in the app store and I'll be sure to purchase it!
Aruthaz, unfortunately the link you gave me didn't work? I think maybe the daily click is playing up. I'll try again later.
and Hagar, I know it's bad but I'm a pretty big apple whore. I have an iphone, ipad and ipod and I bought each one willingly, knowing that they are all practically the save device.... they have a pretty good marketing team.
I've been working on a side scroller for the iphone, I'm very excited about! I might be able to show you some screenshots soon actually.

buster there is a comma in the link that shouldnt be there. daily clicks auto url linking is a bit crap. it turns everything after http or www into a link. so it thinks the comma is a part of the link.

I bought MMF2 Dev + IOS exporter about 3 weeks ago. I'm very satisfied so far. Though I have to say that Apples portal for developers is very tedious to use.
I have so far finished an Ipad only game and I'm having a work collegue of mine doing some finish touches on the menu screen. I've already started on my second game which will be Iphone/Ipad.
Going to be exciting to see how many downloads my games can pull when it hits the Appstore  .

Do you need MMF2 Developer in order to use the IOS exporter?

I don't think so. This is what it says on clickteams website:
"With the new iDevice runtime, a whole new world of creativity is at your fingertips. With this new add-on product several new iDevice exclusive features are added to your copy of Multimedia Fusion 2 or Multimedia Fusion 2 Developer."
Though with the Dev version you get rid of the MMF2 splash screen and some other stuff I believe.

I'm also interested in this.
I bought the exporter, and I made a few demos during the beta testing period, but I haven't made anything to place on the appstore yet.
I'm curious to how well relatively unknown apps sell.
Do they sell 1-2 copies a day? I'd be satisfied with that since you could just throw a couple on the store at 99 cents and make a couple of dollars each month.

With little to no advertising yet, I'm selling a few copies a week, though I plan to try to get the app out more, so I can update you later if you want...
Apparently my thread is broken so the app is here -> http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/jimmy-dungeon-escape!/id467193691?ls=1&mt=8

Ugh, I wish people would spend more time on the presentation of their apps. This is why the store is overloaded with shovelware. I read via the Clickteam Facebook that some guys had over 22 apps on the store, and every single one of those apps looked like something they'd put together in 2 minutes (the 5 star review on every app is the same guy as well).
Please, for the love of not having to sort through rubbish, put some effort into your games. Contrary to what you think, no one is going to buy your 99c apps and make you rich if you spend 2 minutes on some rushed graphics, title screen and icon.
Yes, blah blah blah where are my games etc. but the reason I'm not releasing anything yet is because I want to give the users something I'm proud of creating. The creators can't honestly say they are proud of 80% of these apps being released that are using the MMF2 exporter.
Don't get me wrong, there are some awesome games (Kisguris space game, Megacity HD etc). But there is an overload of shovelware, please think before you excrete something for a quick buck.

How long it takes to make an app does not dictate its quality.
The cheap mmf apps that were made so far were made by amatures. I could do much better in the same amount of time.
Take a look at my downloads, most of those took 3-4 days at most.
I know you weren't talking about me, but I just wanted to throw that out there.
