Re: Secret Exit to release games for N900
 
What I have noticed because I have downloaded the game several times the last days cause of firmware flashes is this.

When you go to the Ovi store using the browser on the N900 and click download it seems that nothing happens, but in fact it downloads in the background just not displaying any progress. So when I and probably others click download again and again, the browsers download queue adds up downloads, it all goes slower and finally you get a out of space prompt because many folks don't have the browser cache set to Auto. The largest cache size before auto is 40MB and that's what get full. Set your browser cache to Auto, then try to download the game, then in your browser click on the top menu and select Downloads to see whats going on.

IMO Nokia Store refusing a card that works just fine in other places does more to help piracy than file sharing sites.

Do you plan on sharing the game through a site that actually has a decent payment system?

Here's a crazy thought: How about E-bay? Does it matter if it's not OVI store? Can't you just set up a PayPal account or something? They are yet to refuse a payment from me and I've now made payments on all non-iced-over continents.

Thoughts?

That worked up until 30% when it stopped downloading and displayed the message saying that I'ved reached the download limit and should either buy it again or contact customer care :(

*boggle* there's a download limit? Ew. I bought Zen Bound on seeing all the reviews had 5 stars and I liked the look of it, and I do enjoy it.

But I'd be awfully annoyed if I had to reflash for some reason, maybe more than once, and then couldn't download the files that Ovi knows perfectly well I've paid for, without paying again.

I presume the link doesn't just lead to the file for saving because it shows as 14kb or something in the App Manager?

There's a fair chance it isn't Nokia blocking it, but the card company.
Give the card company a call and ask.

He's right. No excuse for piracy. If you really wanna buy you'll find a way (like use your friend's card and pay him back, lots of ways like that).
And I used to pirate a lot. No excuse, did it because I can - still do sometimes when I don't have money to pay for games but I never make excuses for it.

It's good to know your opinions. I'm still hoping the intended target of my question will answer.

Almost a zen-like feeling to sit and swipe around and around and around... I like it. It will make the commute much shorter (I'm sure I'll miss my station more than once :))

Installed on second try, the first time I used 2.5G and got 8% before I switched to wlan.

Overall, 4 stars.

Regards,
Henrik

It's great to see this finally come to fruition, and i hope to see more great games from Secret Exit. Congratulations on a great initial offering!

I have renamed the thread and am going to unstick it now that it has had good exposure. Please continue to use it to announce new titles and make other official posts
