For reasons that escape me I have complied a playlist of videos featuring Steven Colbert’s Alex-Jones-parody character Tuck Buckford. They are very funny, though warning there is a fair bit of unsanitaryness in there...

Recapping the first day of launching a mobile app with no marketing budget

Yesterday we began spreading the word that our first mobile app BrainFight was live in Swedish App Store. A big step for us at Remente, maybe not so for mankind. Nevertheless, we are very grateful for the first day results, especially given that our budget for marketing of the app is zero.

We climbed to the No. 1 spot in the category Board Games in Swedish App Store, and on the list of most downloaded free apps in Sweden, we're currently at spot No. 40 and climbing.

Today we're featured in Göteborgs-Posten, one of Sweden's major daily newspapers, and the reviews we've been getting from the app so far have been great!

Then there are of course those things that didn't work exactly as planned. Our push notification feature, that worked great in beta mode, turned out not to work in the live version that was submitted to App Store. An update to solve this was uploaded two days ago, and is currently under review by Apple. We hope those guys in Cupertino will speed up the review process! 

All in all, it's been a team effort, and everyone at Remente as well as the guys at NixonNixon (who helped us build the app), illustrators Karolina and Lisa, sound designer Per and graphic designer Katarina have done an excellent job in creating BrainFight. With BrainFight, Remente is now one step closer to the vision of creating a mental gym for you.

Let the BrainFight battles begin!

Yesterday, Swedish daily newspaper Expressen was talking about the importance of protecting your brain (as seen in the poster above). Today we're proud to say that we have a solution for training the brain, as our free iPhone BrainFight is now live in Swedish App Store. You will find it here. (More countries to come!)

Now you can challenge friends or random opponents while making your brain sweat and finding out who has the best memory, concentration and math skills! Let the BrainFight battles begin!
