Deltamon In-App Purchases

This will be an area for discussing both ideas about possible
in-app purchases as well as a "refund policy" (if we even want
one, which I think would be a good idea personally).
Flame has decided we are making the game free, which I like, but
(as with any app) there will be expenses. So, we need to come up
with a way to make some money to keep things up and running! All
ideas/suggestions/etc. welcome! :)

Do it like Geomon? Have tokens or something that u can use to
buy special items or buy stuff with the tokens to finish some
missions faster. And all of the money we make, will it be going
to help develop the game and make it better?

Of course! :) It will also go towards paying off the (if I may
say, lousy stinking) $100/year Apple iOS Developer subscription
fee and, eventually, maintaining our database backend (if we
exceed 100 users connecting to it at one time; see here
HTML http://www.kinvey.com/developer/pricing)
I'm not really sure how easy it would be to implement a virtual
currency system, but I also know that if we just have it in
normal dollars that could turn some players off...the iOS devs
will give it their best shot though! ;)

Ok, and I know for sure that we should have the lowest at 0.99
and the highest at 99.99 because the ratings on half the games I
play, that is the highest and lowest amount in app purchases
cost (I know that somehow we need to make it that when it goes
onto iOS devices that no jail broke users can jailbreak our
stuff) and I know some rich people WILL buy the 99.99 because my
friend buys that all the time on his games that he is AdDiCtEd
to!

$100 in-app purchase? Wouldn't see me doing that lol. We can't
have any trouble from jailbreakers because they'd have to be
able to disassemble our app's code, which is impossible (believe
me-I tried that with the Geomon app but closest I came was
extracting its contents-which consisted of various sounds,
music, icons, background art, etc. etc.). Or find some 'bug' in
the app...tho I'll personally see to it that's as slim a
possibility as can be made. ;)

Yeah, I know I wouldn't buy the $100 but I know lots of people
out there would so they could get a head start in the game

With that being true we would have to figure out what in the
world they would be buying through that range of price. What in
app item would be $100 and what is so less valuable that its
going to be $0.99. But all in all that's just about the prices
in app payments would be

For 0.99 give them a low amount of credits and keep building up
with the more money, then at 100, a lot of credits

I think we probably could easily limit it down to between $.99
and $25 or $50 (if we DON'T use virtual currency, for w/e
reason; >$5 for buying boosting items, <$5 for buying
healing/etc. items [or something like that]) and between $.99
and $99 (if we DO use virtual currency; with say $10-$99 for
buying virtual currency, or something like that)

Virtual currency which you can both buy and collect after bating
agents or wild espers.
