Universal Alto's Adventure (by Snowman)

  1. I would be concerned about mis-swipes. I love the simplicity here. I think if we could also swipe besides tapping, I would quickly get annoyed with the game.

    Gosh, this game makes for some awesome moments.

    An Elder was literally an inch behind me, and I barely picked up the Hover powerup to get a little bit of speed ahead of him, then went into a slo-mo backflip over a chasm, picked up a magnet in the center of a big sphere of coins over the chasm, then all the coins got sucked in, and I finished my slo mo backflip and left the Elder in the dust.

    It was amazing. Wish this game had Everyplay

    just landed the two-triple-backflips in one run, as soon as i got out of bed even :) i was stuck on it for the last 2 days... I did it in the first 5k meters too, picking up speed early on, scarf glowing white, landed the first triple around 4k meters and the next very soon after, in two thankfully very long steep slopes. I must have crashed like 30-40 times trying to pull it off.

    Unlocked Paz, smashed 3 rocks as him and switched back to Maya immediately, not looking back.

    Yes, and it has been said many times before.

    That being said the similarities are only on first look, side facing endless snowboarding game which you do backflips in. Once you start playing you realise they are actually quite a bit different :D

    Well Maya is fun and handy, but I always die here. How in the world can you pass this chasm? You can't always do a backflip before it so that you would have enough speed. Help..

    The right point to jump here is when you are under the left most coin.

    Hello. I'm not English user so I stuck in level 39 about a day, 'Fly through an archway with the wingsuit'.
    I don't know what mean 'archway' in this game.:confused:

    Gain speed before the jump by making backflips. You can't know when the jump will arrive, but you can accumulate speed from the very beginning.

    Jumping over Chasms always seems more difficult with Maya than it did with the default character.
     
  11. I can't test it myself, but these are the only "archway" I can think of that we can actually go through. I've seen others, but they're just scenery....unless the wingsuit changes that somehow?

    Yep that definitely seems like the archway the quest is referring to.

    Loving the game; I just had my best run with Maya :D

    Was going to say this as well. Just noticed on my last go that you actually go behind the pillars, so perhaps it's actually an archway that you go through. Difficult to tell from the perspective with have...

    Hi! Congrats for the game.
    I'm not a endless runners fan but I'm having a blast with your game.

    Two things I would like added:

    Being able to tweet screenshots of the game, it's soooo beautiful.

    Being able to see when I surpass Gamecenter friends scores in game: maybe a flock of birds when I pass a score, with the name of the friend on top of the screen for a moment.

    Anyway great game.

    @devs: there's definitely a bug with showing the wing button when transferring savegames using the cloud :(

    just wanted to post my best run yet, [​IMG]

    I'd love to see more stuff added to the game, maybe gardens, maybe patches of firebugs at night, maybe gusts of wind blowing forward or backwards affecting your air time

    but its ok if they don't game is perfect @ 1.99 and i want them to make bank.

    Just unlocked Izel and she's awesome! Love the steampunk style! :D

    As for jumping the chasms with Maya it's really more difficult, because she's slower and doesn't build much speed at downhills. What I try to do is pull a backflip whenever possible (she can do it even at the small/medium bumps) to build speed and keep it high.

    Nice. I was stuck on the "3 backflips in one run" objective all yesterday then got it today on my first run. Haven't tried Paz yet.

    Speaking of objectives, are any of you having issues with GC achievements unlocking for completing those? Apologies if it's already been addressed.

    I really like your idea of seeing your friends' scores!

    i really can't get the backflip over sleeping elder. I tried to backflip over him as soon as i see the !, and i tried jumping before the ! appears, as soon as he appears on screen. The missions doesn't check it in either case.. Help?
