My free game (with ads) hasn't made enough to cover the dev license.. I think mobile games are one of those things where you either make the top 10 or languish in purgatory. Made it in about a week: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smashcorp....

just checked, $5 since it launched a year ago :]

going to buy myself an ice cream.
