After a really intense month, I’m really glad that my app finally made it to the App Store!

How far can you run?

Apple’s review process took almost exactly seven days – and the game was approved and ready for sale just in the nick of time at 7:00 PM last night.

My game is a short and simple, yet addictive game called RUNNIN’. The goal is the use the accelerometer on your device to dodge obstacles and keep RUNNIN. The farther you run, the higher your score.

You can check it out over here: http://itunes.apple.com/app/runnin/id475156262?mt=8

If you’re broke or you don’t have an iOS device to try it out, I’ve also published it for free on the web. You can play the same game (in Flash) over here: http://www.stencyl.com/game/play/2005

I’m really glad with the way everything turned out. Four weeks ago I would never think I would have a commercial product out on the market – I’m really glad I was able to experience the entire development process from start to finish. This is definitely a huge turning point in my game development career.

Thanks, Ludum Dare!
