Downloading now... ramzarules Well-Known Member Sep 13, 2014 2,112 128 63 Greece #3 ramzarules, Feb 1, 2017 looks good but way too frustrating for me. Having to restart after a minute or so every time got old in 10 minutes. Can't relax and enjoy it, no matter how good it looks.

Amazing job! new_ipodtouch5G_owner Well-Known Member Mar 16, 2015 386 46 28 Canada #5 new_ipodtouch5G_owner, Feb 1, 2017 Just had such a wonderful flashback to my youth. When the local pizza shop first opened in 1982, Zaxxon by Sega was the very first arcade game they got. Man, so many quarters well wasted, and the best pizza anywhere. Good luck with the game, it looks great. I will definitely give it a try. paulkane Well-Known Member Sep 6, 2012 1,102 0 36 Library automaton Denver #6 paulkane, Feb 1, 2017 When you tap for another game, you shouldn't have to then tap again to start that game. Also, it would be nice if you were able to tap anywhere on the screen and not just towards the top. Aside from that, your perspective is limited when you get to certain obstacles. I couldn't figure out where I was suppose to be. It should be more clear where you have to move to get around the rock or whatever. And finally, I must be really use to opt-in ads, because the forced ad was a bit surprising. Although the ad did come right after I had already decided to delete the game, so good timing? MoHeyNow Well-Known Member Dec 15, 2010 51 0 0 #7 MoHeyNow, Feb 1, 2017 Haha got some total Zaxxon vibes from this one as well! Sank a lot of time into that one.

Acumen Well-Known Member Apr 15, 2011 266 0 0 Kindergarten teacher Germany http://www.acumen-design.de/blog #9 Acumen, Feb 2, 2017 Hey guys, I'm the guy that was responsible for all the artwork in the game. We are really happy that overall the atmosphere gets positive feedback. And while I never had the chance to play a round of Zaxxon I definitely have a nice reference picture of it in one of my countless folders We would love to hear what kind of scores you guys can get and whatever other feedback you might have. We actually thought about including a zen mode, with less obstacles and no scores, but were ultimately putting that on hold, depending on how well the game was received. We are really proud of the word that was spread for our game, unfortunately it didn't convert in any kind of feature yet, for us. Still we had a long journey behind us and it feels nice to get noticed for it If you are interested in some wip pictures you can hop at my twitter handle @fabi_smith and check it out. Once again, thank you for your very open feedback so far and keep it coming ! And a special thanks for the coverage by toucharcade. It already feels like a small lifetime achievement for a tiny team like us. ramzarules Well-Known Member Sep 13, 2014 2,112 128 63 Greece #10 ramzarules, Feb 2, 2017 So much this. Most of my losses are because the path splits, i take one exit and then suddenly crash because that path is close to impossible to get out from, while the path i didn't take has the wider exit. I also agree with your other points, namely faster restart and forced ads, but what made me decide to delete it was this : split paths where one is the correct-but you can't know it. If this gets any kind of update in these directions, will be eager to re-download. EggYolkeo Active Member Jan 8, 2014 28 0 1 #11 EggYolkeo, Feb 2, 2017 Nice game! I can see spending more time with it. Thanks for making it! Since you mentioned Alto's Revenge: it would be great to hear some swooshing sounds while flying and steering. The feel of flying would be greater. And ambient sounds, wind and water. I would love to be able to turn the music off actually, it's too new age I think. Maybe add the shadows of some little fish in the water? LOL, sorry going overboord! Being able to jump up and down by swiping up and down would be nice also. forsakenxe Well-Known Member Oct 23, 2014 709 0 16 #12 forsakenxe, Feb 3, 2017 I agree on lots of points here: Restating should take one click only. Forced ads are really annoying but IPA to remove Is only 1€ so I feel fine about that. The game feels a bit empty, couldn't put my finger on it at first but after I've read some comments I think the lack of ambient sound from your plane and the one colored world lets this game feel "blank" in a way. Also I think that that there is a bug which lets the game stutter when. New scenery of ad loads in, which leads to early demises. I will delete the game for now because of it (its incredibly frustrating to pla smoothly and then there is a stutter and your dead). Latest live iOS on an iPad Air 2 which was complete resented about 2 weeks ago. So shouldn't be me, even restarted.

Rather frustrating. Deleted after a few tries. The graphics and everything looked nice. KeKhan Well-Known Member May 28, 2012 1,381 43 48 #14 KeKhan, Feb 4, 2017 Looks like my kind of game so I downloaded. Love the art and it seems fun but I instantly deleted it. I will never ever ever play a game that has ad banners in the game space. Insta-delete as soon as I see it, no matter how good the game looks. It's like having a commercial constantly running while you watch TV. Can't enjoy it. Sorry, and good luck! AkosMakovics Active Member May 16, 2016 26 0 1 Software engineer student, indie developer Hungary http://www.akos-makovics.com #15 AkosMakovics, Feb 4, 2017 Thank you for your comments on the game! At the moment, we are working on an update, which will solve most of your issues. First of all, we checked the pieces where the path splits into two, and made sure that every possible route has the same difficulty. We are also working on a relax mode, where you can enjoy the scenery. No points, no coins, no distraction. And finally, we are working hard to remove the performance issues, so you can enjoy the game lag free. AkosMakovics Active Member May 16, 2016 26 0 1 Software engineer student, indie developer Hungary http://www.akos-makovics.com #16 AkosMakovics, Feb 7, 2017 Version 1.1 is now available in the App Store! - Improved general performance, since some users were having some performance issues. - Tweaked the difficulty in some level pieces. And we wanna thank everyone for downloading, and playing our game! That means a lot to us! ramzarules Well-Known Member Sep 13, 2014 2,112 128 63 Greece #17 ramzarules, Feb 7, 2017 Last edited: Feb 7, 2017 Checked the update. The good news is that now split paths aren't unfair. sadly that's the only good news. Because 1)restarting still takes two taps 2)game still stutters a bit (iphone 6s+) 3)banner ads still right where the controls are. But most importantly, with the obstacles coming every second you can't do anything but focus on the obstacle and move move move move constantly. It's a game like Appsolute and Ketchapp put out -tap tap tap lose, try again. It's NOT a game where you can spend some seconds and say whoa, look how beautiful the background is like in Alto - because at that moment you have crashed, nor is it a game where you can feel bliss chaining trick moves together through a slowly changing landscape- because there are no trick moves. This is my opinion, but thanks for trying with the update Akos! I think this is more a game for the tap tap crowd than Alto's crowd, due to the reasons above. forsakenxe Well-Known Member Oct 23, 2014 709 0 16 #18 forsakenxe, Feb 8, 2017 Yup. Downloaded it again as well and the stuttering is still there (It feels like it happens when a new ad is loaded in). So deleted again and waiting for more updates (You must log in or sign up to post here.) Show Ignored Content Share This Page Tweet Your name or email address: Password: Forgot your password?
