Amazon is having some big sale where you can get $135 in paid apps for free. None of them were that interesting except for HoS Elite! fallen and Cory Trese did you guys know they're giving it away right now or is there some clause in their agreement that lets them do whatever they want with your game without telling you?

We worked with them. Developers who participate receive additional promotional consideration but forgo all revenues associated with the sale. So while 50,000 people downloaded the game during the bundle, we didn't generate any revenue.

Guess I can still rebuy the IAP characters.

50,000? Wow… how many do you usually sell? I'm assuming it's an awful lot less, or you'd be living in the Bahamas now.

Everyone goes in for the free bundles - easy to grab all the apps and then decide what you do or don't want!

As a note for all the Amazon users on the forum. This is an ideal time to post a review for Elite HoS. You can get the "Amazon Verified Purchase" tag and promo the DLC characters in your review. Just a thought...

Is there any way I can transfer my save from the other (pay for each installment) version to this complete version?

echo1 - sorry, there is no way to transfer saves between the two games.

You should try to change that. It was annoying, escaping the Baron twice.

dragolord - there was never any intention that people would buy both games. The apps do not work like Star Traders Elite where you need to upgrade. If you defeated the Baron in Free, then purchase the IAP episodes, etc. Its not something we can change now.
