After watching 1000s of copy cats of outbid app, I wanted to get in on the action too but not by copying it as is. I wanted to give it my own spin. So made own version of it.

Idea is simple: Compete and beat your competition to stay on top floor.

Been designing for 15+ years now and I finally am able to reap benefits of all the 10,000+ hours I've done in product & design. Just in 24 hrs of launch, it pulled in $700+ of advert and ~200k+ impressions on socials.

What a time to be a designer who can build & sell on the internet.

More stats:

- Floors claimed: 54

- Total sales in 24 hrs: $754

- Visitors since launch (and counting): 12,0001

- Visitors from 112 countries: top 5: US (20.9%), India (16%), France (11.3%), UK (3.5%), Germany (2.8%), & rest of the world

Couldn't be any more happier about it.

Lesson: Keep shipping. Over. And over.
