That's not an oversight, it's obviously a feature that is designed to frustrate us. I did complete that eventually though. This game requires a tremendous amount of skill and dedication to complete, which makes completing it more satisfying in my opinion.
A "restart from the beginning" button wouldn't change the skill required, nor would just moving that checkpoint to a more sensible place. You'd still have to make the jump clean to get the coin, but you wouldn't get punished twice when you crash, once for crashing and then again because of the poorly placed checkpoint.
I too found this frustrating, but if you are good enough you shouldnt be crashing Never the less a full restart button is need In my opinion. Also we should have a undo button and a past button on the editor.
why whuld you make a game that is disignd to make you angry, frustrated and hate the game. that's bad game disign :O A "restart from the beginning" button whuld be awesome, and make the frustration a bit easyer. realy sux to klick all over the screan. and, i agree with every thing toythatkills wrote.
Actually I find the bike a little too hard to control. Kills creativity when we have to spend all our time trying to get the bike to move the way we want to the exact spot. Hopefully we would see some creative user created levels that reduce this problem and instead focus on having more than one way to complete a level.
We will be definitely updating the editor and adding more things in the future. What do you mean by past button? We will work on adding restart from beginning button. One idea we have now is to make the restart from last checkpoint button to work as restart from beginning if you hold it for 1+sec. How does that sound? We want to have as less buttons as possible on the screen to keep it clean and easy to use We currently have 1000+ user generated levels after only 3 days, so I'm sure everyone will find plenty of levels they love. Will be making it easier to find new levels in future updates. Thanks a lot for all the feedback guys! We read every reply and evaluate it. Good luck beating the levels!
I have a suggestion. Please let us toggle on/off the crowd cheers and bike baron's voice, it gets annoying after a while. I'm really enjoying the game though and I'm looking forward to seeing what you guys do with the game in the future.
ACZG is my first level !! also the "One idea we have now is to make the restart from last checkpoint button to work as restart from beginning if you hold it for 1+sec" sounds great
-wouldnt it be great if you could edit levels on pc then test them on your device,the same way labyrinth 2 does it (i think that game nailed user created levels) !? -also a MP would fit nicely in this game !!
The game looks interesting, but doesn't seem a 100% polished. I'll be picking this up when the leaderboards get fixed and the restart from beginning button gets implemented.
I meant paste button, so you could paste the piece you just used without having to go to the side and drag.
This game is awesome and extremely polished. Controls great as well as looks. And best of all, it's fun. Oh ya and it has a great leek creator.
This had better be a joke That's better than how it currently is, but not ideal as there's just an unnecessary delay. What about using the mini-map for restarts? Allow the player to tap any checkpoint (or the start line) on the mini-map when they crash to go back to that point. Or just put a "restart from beginning" button at the left side of the mini-map which will still mean the HUD looks as clean as it does now, pretty much.
Well, I basically do what previous posters have said -- I nose the front tire up to the slope, then I press the gas. Now instead of pressing the right arrow button at various times, I found I just do a constant, quick tapping of the right button. As soon as that front tire starts going up, give the right arrow a quick tap, and keep tapping it -- all the way up to the top. It doesn't work every time, and you don't want to tap the button as fast as you can. Kind of a quick, methodical tapping. Sorry, that is really hard to describe, but if you play around with that it might work for you. Like I said, doesn't work every time, but I can easily make it over within a few attempts now.
I'm at my limit already, 30% Hard and I simply can't see how I can get any more stars. So depressing.
Loving this game muchly. Two requests: 1) Replays, and replay sharing. I've pulled some insane stuff off that I'd like to see again, and share. Additionally, I'd like to see the countless ways people accomplish the same tasks. 2) iCloud unified saves. I hate being at different points on each device, and my OCD won't let me progress until I've gotten 3 stars first. This is where fun becomes tedium on levels that are just completely ridic. Also, any chance for upgrades and unlockables? I'd really like a more vintage looking bike for the Baron.
now playing hard levels and the one thing is quite annoying, as already was told here if you just press go button then results will be different every time. it's ok for easy levels but for hard levels, which are again not levels but some hard tricks placed on a map, it is different. that was already stated in this thread. but it seems like devs think it's not an issue at all. or it's another possibility to frustrate people?
I don't know how but i think just created the most revolutionary bike baron user level ever Spoiler you should play it multiple times to understand why just check it out : AC76 its called TS3'S - 6paths ,would like to hear your comments
