Sweet, it's always great to receive genuine positive feedback on your work. The fact that someoe paid money and was still happy is only better.

What is all the fuss about anyway?

I think this is part of his marketing strategy. "Hey guys, I just wanted to let you know that I made this really cool game that loads of people are buying and they really like it... okay catch you later..."
Just keeping that carrot out of reach eh?

Quote: "UOK Games Copyright 2011UOK Games Hangman:

UOK Games Hangman is a classic spelling game offering over 60,000 words to spell. Hangman encourages basic spelling; basic logic and helps children understand how to use vowels in spelling. Because most words use at least one vowel, it is critical for a child to practice using vowels"

This synopsis sounds a bit odd to me. I hope you don't mind but I've written my own version below. If you want to use it take it, if not that's okay. This is just my effort to try and help you sell more!


UOK Games' Hangman faithfully recreates the classic word guessing game. With a database of over 60,000 words, UOK Games' Hangman is a fun way to introduce new vocabulary, teach spelling and aid the development of basic logic skills.

PS The pine backdrop looks a bit garish to me, is there an option to change it?

the seams in the backround image (the wooden planks, so to say) needs to be fixed, it looks unproffesional =/

Yeah, it should at least be a bigger picture, when it's the same thing placed all over, you can tell.

Make it a bit smoother and I'd buy it.
