Thank you all for your patience and understanding. Try and enjoy the game shield-free or wait for patch #1!
Another HUGE bug. After playing the first challenge and then starting a normal game again, the level graphics are mixed with the challenge graphics + the sound is missing. The thing is, I would LOVE to play it, since I'm coming back again and again, which is speaking for the game. So devs, please hurry.
Hey, maybe you guys should add a "back" button on the character select screen. I accidentally selected the easy difficulty and I had to restart the game to choose the normal difficulty.
Loving the game. Glad to hear it's just the shields. I was worried that I was jumping at straws with my earlier post about the buckler. Oh and guys i'm the high score for the crusader at the moment . Which i'm sure is just cus the really good players just haven't died yet. lol
This happened to me too and I had to restart a new game - I was in the wall I thought somehow! But if you look at that screenshot it illustrates what I was going to comment about. The character actually shows the equipment changes! Or at least the robes! How cool is that? Even some of the more sophisticated RPG's don't do that!
Amidst all the madness, I'd like to enquire about something that bugs me with a lot of iPhone games... what's with the blurry text? It looks as though the game isn't being displayed at the correct resolution or something, which is a shame because some of these games have so much effort poured into their pixel work and it's a flaw that really stands out. I'm talking about this (view at max size): As you can see, the description text is a fine mixture of pixel perfect lettering and blurry crap. Even if it's a flaw in the engine/iPhone/whatever, I wanna know what it is, 'cause it annoys the hell out of me. Oh, and to the dude that said the animation looked laggy, I agree. It seems as though the animation doesn't get a chance to finish before starting over on the next square, which gives it a strange "skipping" motion. Neither are huge flaws, but they're noticeable to me and probably other people too. Aside from that (and the shield thing) I'm loving it, front page app for sure.
Well, it ain't shield-related. I just crashed AGAIN playing as the fairy on level 1. No shield, naturally. I'm really sad, because I really love the game. The fact that I keep playing despite these numerous bugs should prove that.
Thank you all again for your patience and understanding. Please bear with us while we hash all this out. (especially me, I'm just the artist!) Alright, the current story is: 1.Shields are a definite issue 2.spawning into walls happens after a crash during a continue. So for the time being, just reboot your games. 3. The "challenge mode" tiles thing is an unforseen glitch. As far as I can tell, if you play the main game and avoid shields it SHOULD be ok, but don't quote me because I'm not a coder. I'm just trying to keep everyone as up to date as possible. Blake
Only played as crusader and normal difficulty. The game's been fine since avoiding the shield. Now just trying for a big high score.
Thanks so much for being involved! It is very refreshing to see a development team so active here! It helps to know that you guys are working out the issues and frankly, I for one, am happy to be playing 100 Rogues in whatever state right now, as opposed to WAITING for 100 Rogues!
We really appreciate it! I'm looking forward to seeing this game realize its potential. I think what really worries me is that your team will probably have fixes quite fast, but Apple will take forever to review the update...
Ah man, I just had my first crash. I didn't know what I picked up was a shield, thought it was a bomb or something.
Also guys, everyone has their share of bugs, especially on a game's initial launch... but that's what's great about the App store. Free and convenient updates and bugfixes. So just hang tight, and I'm sure the devs will update and fix their game in short order. But also... keep playing and giving feedback on this stuff! It helps a lot.
Glad to hear so many of you are enjoying it! Less glad to hear so many of you are crashing An update is going in immediately to fix the shield error, and though the loading-in-walls will be safeguarded against. Thank you all for your patience!
