Thanks. Well, there are so many applications with name Candy, that I don't think they will go through all that trouble.
When we started I didn't know anything about game development, so I guess cocos2d is not that hard to learn. :) It took us around 8 months to make it, though, but mostly because we updated to better graphics multiple times. Btw, last update runs on cocos2d v3, which is a lot simpler and more easy to learn.
Also: be careful of your app name, you might be contacted by King regarding trademark infringement for the term "Candy".
