Nice read. At least it seemed to help to get you a job. In todays AAA games, the marketing budget is usually higher than the actual development budget. "Make it and they will come" is just a myth from people who confuse luck with actual efforts. Or, like they say in my favourite motivational sports video:  Luck is the last dying wish of those who want to believe that winning can happen by accident... :D
That said, my marketing budget for my upcoming RPG is 0 as well. But I don't intend to make any money with it anyway, because it will be 100% free.

EgonOlsen:
Oh, and BTW: Of course jPCT-AE still IS the leading API for 3D on Android, if you are doing it in Java... ;)

Kids nowadays prefer to use combine-like engines (Unity, Unreal etc) I love lightweight, well documented libraries, like your engine.

Cool, I want to play it already. I will post on my blog and everywhere I can about your RPG when it released.

IMHO, this whole design approach is misleading. This WYSIWYG-stuff makes people believe that they can make a game by clicking and dragging (and dropping...)...and that's just not the case. Just search youtube for Unity 3D-"projects" and you'll find a LOT of "games" where some random dude walks around in some generic landscape (usually created some Unity stock assets)...and that's it. Then people seem to realize that the visuals don't make the game and quit. To use the power of these tools, you have to be a programmer IMHO. But if you are a programmer already, you don't necessarily have to use these tools.

I wasn't aware before that the game is based on Alien Runner and I never expected that some mediocre game like Alien Runner would be able to have any kind of impact on anybody. This is one of these moments that keep me going... :D
