The Emotion of your Art/Product

In every Art form you communicate with people more or less consciously deepening on your understanding of yourself.
Even if you do very flat art for the portrait objects sake only – you communicate that with it.

The more people can relate to your Art the more success you have.

Keeping your communication as Universal as possible can there for be the key to your success.
All Humans can be driven by emotions, since they sit much deeper in us as everything evolved later.

Emotions can press through that prefrontal cortex construct, what we call our personality and paint yourself fully in the colour of that Emotion. In other words they have to power to fully overtake you.
The stronger your Art/Product can immerse the consumer in that emotion the more of a pull you can build.

Seek for the most simple way to achieve the strongest emotional expression first.

Think about your favourite Song rather than your favourite movie.
They are short but very expressive resonating with your current emotional state, creating that permission slip to discover that emotion deeply with outer guidance and pulling you along, stimulating thoughts and dreams as well as actions.

So as a creator you want to create that product that appeals to a very specific emotion in a broad enough communication form and way to reach as much people as are drawn to it. FIgure out what emotion your product represents, this is an ongoing process and should be redone after you created the basic construct.

As your mental model may not match to what you actually have created.

Once you figured out what you have in front of you try to align every further component to that very emotion, enhancing and supporting that defined emotional core.

Chartboost Statistics 2015 – David Zobrist Indie Mobile Game Developer

So 2.5 Years as one man Indie Mobile Game Developer here is my most recent Statistic update.
I am kind of struggling for the reason that the money pretty much remained the same even tough the Downloads increased massively within the last couple months. It could be related to an overall lower eCPM or that the variety of shown ads isn’t that high at the moment so players are less likely to be interested and interact with the Ad Units. I also switched on interstitial videos instead just pop ups roughly in the middle of the year which co-created the newest highest peak of around $250 in one Day mostly 85% by the game Orcs. A number I would have liked to see more often 😛 But still it felt pretty exciting.

The Daily New Installs / New Players
A lot of them go to the Game PewDiePug which unfortunately isn’t the one with the highest ARPU.

The actually daily Money generated through the Chartboost interstitial pop ups and videos

Since I assumed the videos my reduce the amount of Boot ups since they are so hardly annoyed and this could be another reason for the not linearly rising daily income. But it isn’t also the Boot up look good compared to new Installs and history.
