    Hey guys,i got 2 questions:
    - you can't capture an enraged monster?
    -when i try to pummel down a monster's health to capture it,and on my second draw i get a good hand it destroys a monster. Is this intentional? I'd probably like it better if i had the choice if i wanted to make use of the super power it unleashes or capture a monster with my hand.

    Maybe it would be a good idea to include in the help section a monster capture page. My daughter was sitting with me when i was at the tutorial franticly tapping my Ipad so i only have a vague idea what i'm doing^^.

    Great questions. I will add a monster capture page in the help section.

    1) No you cannot capture an enraged monster. You get one chance per monster you face to collect their card.

    2) The cards are all random, so you're unlucky at that point.

    Until we fix up the help page, you can tap through the tutorial again :) Although even there it might not explain enough..

    Thanks for the feedback! We're already tinkering and figuring out the next steps :)

    Cheers,
    -Brian

    Apologies for not posting an update in a while, it's been taking some time to get the next build out b/c we're doing our best to optimize the game to the point where it will run properly on iPod Touch 4 as well as iPad 1.

    Hoping to get something out by the end of this week.

    Thanks everyone!

    So far, I am really enjoying the game. I like the Pokemon meets poker gameplay. Very fun. Good luck on future builds! :)

    On the new build that came out today I had something happen I'm uneasy about. I know capturing cards has been retweaked to be a little easier, but I just captured a card with a high card hand while trying for a flush. I think that may be a little too forgiving.

    Hey Esuna,

    Great feedback! We tweaked it so that every capture attempt has at least SOME chance of capturing. Depending on what card you got and the circumstances (monster HP), that chance could've been as low as 0.01%. It was probably more in the 1-3% range, but I don't know what the exact inputs were.

    If that is happening regularly, we've screwed up. But you were extremely lucky!

    Cheers

    Thank you for all your interest! We are entering the final phases of the project, so we are not accepting anymore beta testers (except the last guy that just got in 5 minutes ago hahaha)

    Cheers! We will continue updating the build and taking all your feedback!

    I was really worried about that capture as it was my first try on the new build. I've been relieved of my fear after playing a little more.

    Sorry for the delay, our programmer (yes there's only 1) came down with strep throat so work has been put on hold for a while.

    He's getting better though so will keep everyone posted!

    Thanks!

    Programmer sick? I may have had a few too many, but that's what I call a bug in the system. Ba dum tss.

    But seriously. Get better. Strep sucks, but it's better than scarlet fever.
