    Hi everyone, our next game Snake Towers is ready for beta. Yay!

    The game still needs features, polishing and balancing. This is where you guys come in to the picture! We really hope you will help us make this next game even better. (Our previous games are Daddy Long Legs, illi and Bike Club).

    Updates:
    0.1.3
    0.5.0

    The story
    On top of the tallest towers in the universe lives a snake. Endlessly wandering around, looking for shiny objects and upgrades, in order to prolong his short existence.
    Slither from tower to tower looking for gold pieces that make your tail grow. Find rare gems and power hats to help you on your journey. But beware of the cursed towers, they will challenge you with reversed controls or shaking grounds, just to name a few.

    Are you looking for localization? I can help translating to Brazilian Portuguese.

    Oh how I love Denmark, Miss Denmark of course and the two singing sisters in a band called First Aid Kit very lovely voices they have and good music I have all their albums and lets not forget Set Snail with their new game that's coming Snake Towers.

    Just played half an hour and I really love it, as some might now I love colors in a game and the colors in this game are gorgeous so is the whole art style.

    Your Snake goes from room to room and every room has a different task and you need to go back sometimes to clear something or make a pattern with your snake for 10 extra points and so on.

    Today!

    Hello everyone! Thank you to everyone that has signed up to the beta and tried the game!

    [​IMG]

    Just to let you know about what we have been working on today
    General performance optimizations
    Restarting the game should be a bit faster now, especially on newer phones.

    Controls
    The controls for this game is tricky business, and we have listened to your fantastic feedback, we are tweaking it along the way.

    New Speed Hat!
    If you wanted a hat that permanently made you faster, then now you got it!

    Overlays & UI
    We have tweaked some of the hit areas for some of the buttons, and have made a settings overlay, so far you can only enable and disable sound, but it is a start! :)

    More
    Various small bugs and fixes, if you find any errors, please let us know!

    Hopefully these updates will be pushed tomorrow :)

    Have a great day!

    Snake Towers is a great adaption of classic snake.

    I've really enjoyed beta testing it.

    We have been busy! :) A new version of the game is out, please check it out and let us know what you think!

    Changes
    Performance
    Faster load & restart times on newer devices.

    Controls
    We have tweaked the controls, the game doesn't queue as many moves as it used to, and you know have to lift your finger in between moves, hopefully this makes it less frantic! (thank you for the feedback everyone!), also, we have tried lowering the boost speed when swiping twice. (Thanks Landon O).

    New "Wings" Hat
    We have added a wings hat that makes you move faster overall, so everyone that likes to go fast can still go nuts!

    Overlays & UI
    We have tweaked some of the hit areas for some of the buttons, also, the buttons will make a sound now when you tap them.
    The settings overlay now has content, you can disable sounds if you want, or Disable the double swipe speed feature (Thanks Lee J)

    Gem
    The gem now has a fancy new shine.

    Obviously we havn't been able to implement a whole lot of your feedback yet, but we are working hard on getting around to you all/responding.

    Next Features
    We are going to be looking into last minute direction changes. We have received multiple suggestions on this, so this will be the first thing we are looking into. Hopefully we will also be able to update some of the game audio, since we know this is still quite... Meh :)

    0.1.4

    [​IMG]

    Back from a great weekend, with a few more tweaks and updates. Nothing major this time though :)

    Changes
    Controls
    We are still tweaking controls, we have added a small margin of error to peoples moves, in case they swipe too late. We hope you guys will give us feedback regarding this, is it better or worse? The snake has also been been made a tiny bit faster.

    UI
    You can now tap the top UI elements to get a better idea of what they mean (Thanks everyone)

    Bugs
    When getting the Jitter Curse, you would permanently be faster afterwards, this has been fixed.
    Text for the wings update is now correct.

    0.5.0 - release is looming!

    [​IMG]

    WE ARE ON TIME!! Launch is August 9th! Woohooo.

    OH MAN! So much new stuff.
    We have been busy. So busy even, that we can hardly even remember what has happened since the last time this was updated. Lets try and list it all.

    iPad
    Everything now looks awesome on iPad too! Just check this out!

    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    Skins
    We have added skins! They are given to you in eggs, which you unlock in parts as you play, and by buying them from the store and the collection screen using gems.

    Here you can see the skins
    [​IMG]

    UI
    We have added all the functionality to unlock skins, choose skins, combine skins.
    The shop has been added.
    Lots of various small improvements has been made!
    More hints are added. The fundamentals of a system that ensures you wont get the same hints all the time is also coming soon.

    Ads
    We have added ads, we know, we know, nobody wants ads, but it is a necessary evil in order to keep the game free.
    We have however added a GREAT ad removal system, if we do say so ourselves. If you choose to buy ad removal, ALL ads are removed. Even the rewarded ones. That means the first revive is free, getting an extra egg is free and you get free gems every day! We feel like this makes the game feel like a premium title, for a fair price!

    Localisation
    We have started to localize the game for 5 languages, English, Spanish, French, Italian and german. More will come in the future, and implementation is still ongoing, but, you can switch to your preferred language in Settings.

    Graphical improvements
    We have added further polish to the graphics of the game. Still not completely satisfied, but we are getting there. One step at a time :)

    Balancing
    We have balanced the gem costs of various things, and made some rooms more difficult.

    There are certainly a ton of other changes that we have made, however, it is hard to remember it all.

    We hope you will leave us a bit of feedback, and obviously, that you like the changes.

    Have a great day.
