OK , so now i know what means commercial 
and ok , in fact it's put on market , but just small one ,and potential buyers won't be a lot compared to very serious games
Are their really any "serious" gamers that would goto a store and buy a game about golfing, or pinball/breakout clone for 4.99? I sure as hell wouldn't, I'de go right for the 49.99 "own your computer with AAA graphics". BUT, there's probably a crowd out their that likes golfing or oldschool pinball/breakout clones...
Edit: Also, there would be no point in adding insanely demanding graphics, because look at the crowd I am trying to sell to. People with average computers. I tested this game on a variety of computers, and it plays good on a few bare minimum computers.

Hi guys my sister and here husband buy cheepy games all the time, in fact that’s where you can find some really fun to play games. I saw the original of this game and it looks like there are some nice improvements. But the game was already fun to play. Since Stansmedia has made it more family friendly he will probably sell even more units than he otherwise would have. If he does a good job marketing. Keep up the good work. Guardian

ohhhh maaan, no way that flippn' spread eagled cat was the BOMB!! I laughed so hard every time I saw it I wanted to puke!! Non violent version? I have to say that if any game was destined to be violent it's yours for SURE!
That freakin' cat LOL I Loved it! That was half the game's charm! Why ruin a good thing?

OK , you'll find buyers ; yes perhaps your concept is so siple lot of us could easily do what you do , or better, so i think 3DGS way can be very simple games ,easy to program , and to do i'll have to try If you could say in teh future if you have sold lot or not , it would be cool and would be a good way to shwo people to make simle fun games and not try to do HL2 but Street Kicker game , that is more work teh nyours perhap have not sold a lot , only few pieces.... it let me perplex !! And i think i talk about another category of people : when you are not a kid , for 5 Euros , or 10 Eur you can have great commercial games like Dark Project 3 game , Deus Ex2 etc .... and people liek me will never pay soemthing for your game and buy the real commercial for 5 or 10 Eur ! thats' all but i admit you can find customers, i hope you will comuunicate how many you have sold it could be a good demonstration , that lot fo 3DGS users could make arcade games than tryign Doom3 and fail

You are just frustrated, am I right? This game in it's revamped version looks even more appealing to the general low-budget target group and I think stansmedia did a great job. I maybe liked the original idea better, but this version will most probably sell better.
TheExpert I think you are rather an exception in respect to your buying behaviour. Children won't buy DOOM3 or DeusEx II, they will go for this game. There are a lot of older gamers that like platform games too and they won't mind spending a dollar or 10 for it either, in contrast to buying a normal retail game from $35-45 , so I think this games makes a good chance in selling well.
Like you've said yourself, "you should try making a game like this yourself" and then we will talk about wether this game beats yours, or not   ,
Cheers

) non-violent (
) but it's good to see innovative games coming out even if they don't have top of the line graphics. Just don't charge as much as the graphically advanced titles.
