Ranked (Games/Family): 32

Downloads and ranking have really picked up yesterday since App Advice article.

Just Pong has been FREE for about a week now, because I'm promoting Hit the Deck Baseball.
So far, it's helping.

Never would of thought a simple pong game would be this big.

Thanks everybody!

One thing I learned, by making your app for free, your app ratings go down.
Before I made it free, it was at about a 4-1/2 rating, now 3.

A couple of people said Just Pong crashes after each game. I tried and tried and couldn't get it to crash.

So, I went over the code, and wow, what a mess(it was my very first game) I changed half of the code and
added some new features that people requested.

Hopefully I fixed the bug.

I read about this rating going low on "free time" also, and I thought it is becaue when it has to be bought, it is bought by people that really wants it, so they are predisposed to it.

On a free version, it is downloaded by everybody, even people that don't like it in the first.
