Tap Tap Revenge 4 Surges To #1 On The App Store With 25,000 Downloads Per Hour

Last night around 11PM, Tapulous released the latest version of what is one of the App Store's most popular franchises of all time: Tap Tap Revenge 4. 18 hours later, it became the top application in the App Store, marking the sixth time Tapulous has held the #1 spot since the App Store launched in summer 2008 (TTR1, TTR2, TTR3 as a paid app, then again as a free app, TTR3 Boost , and TTR 4). Tapulous�founder Bart�Decrem says that this game launch has been "twice as fast, and twice as big" as TTR 3 was in the same time span. The launch of Tap Tap Revenge 4 comes around six months after the company was acquired by Disney for an undisclosed sum. Decrem, who now serves as SVP and General Manager for Disney Mobile, says that the game is seeing around 25,000 downloads per hour right now, which is on par with what it saw on Christmas day last year (app downloads see a major spike on Christmas as people try out their new iPhones and iPod touches, so expect this number to surge even higher this year).
