Someone wrote an article about Outwitters being a financial flop

Take all the current teams and maps, add in the new ones and release it as a new app. Call it Outwitters 2 and charge $6.99 for the whole shebang, no IAP. So all the 550k Scallywags can keep what they already have. Only new, paying users of Outwitters 2 will get all the latest teams and maps. For anyone who paid money for Outwitters, OML can send them a code to download Outwitters 2 for free, as a thank you for the support. Then I would also take a vein from Hero Academy and make the icon look more like the cartoony, in-game art to catch the eye. It's proven that it works.

Excellent way to handle this... +1 from me. I bought the entire team packs and will be buying a few bases to support OML, but this sounds like a better way to go. Only Q I have is the price point. $6.99 might not get many. Maybe $3.99, but if 50% of the free users convert, then that may make it profitable. They could also phase out standard Outwitters after about 4 months I suppose as well...
