Suggestion for your description: "High Quality 3D graphics" comes across like you're scraping the barrel for bullet points to put on the back of the box. To boot, I can say from experience that the ones that put that on the back are usually the shovelware games with graphics that always look like they're one or two generations of consoles behind (i.e early-PS2 graphics on a PS3 game, etc.) Now obviously you're doing this all on your own and I'm not going to hold you to the same standards as a multi-million dollar project. I guess my point is, that kind of blurb invites criticism. It's like a chef bringing you a steak that he proclaims "perfectly cooked" when it's clearly overdone.

Thanks for your suggestion. The title and description of the game in Play Store plays a big part in ranking the game against keyword searches. Hence, a lot of Indie developers like me go a little over-the-board in describing the game :)
Oh really?

Let me quote what Google is saying in their promotional materials: "When you publish on Google Play, you put your app in front of over 2 billion active Android users...".

If they can lie, than he can exaggerate.
