You had me at bus stops! "This is the trailer isn't it?". Haha.... Good stuff. I love that portrait/one hand play is pushed as a critical feature! Man this type of game brings back childhood memories.
hey Bob, i'm just playing it on my 4S (runs fine) and can tell your game is really good, it brings me back to the old Boulderdash days... sweet!
OMG! That trailer. And the game. Their website refers to them as "Your local game company. ... If you live in Visalia, Sweden." More humor! More pixels! If this is Sweden, where do I sign up?
Thanks for the notification. I will wait til the iPad version is released. Gotta admit it looks good.
Hello again. Just need to clarify a few device issues in the current version. As said, 1.2, waiting for review over at apple, will scale correctly on the iPad and also on the iPhone4s. Playing the game right now and those devices will cut the screen at the bottom so you'll miss a couple of tiles making you play in the dark, but mainly, the "End game"-button is outside the screen when you die. So even though you can continue on the screen you died on, there will be no way to actually reset the whole game, unless you complete it. To compensate, the game is really kickass on the iPhone 5 and up. Also, there are some more detailed instructions over at http://captaincowboy.se/ for people who like to read instructions. I'm not saying I think you people like to read instructions but if you do... there they are. ( So much better than ingame tutorials, right? )
I cannot thank Jared enough for front-paging the hell out of Captain Cowboy. That trailer simply is the best thing I've seen in years on the App Store and I cannot commend you guys enough for that massive middle finger to Free to Play. Amazing. Bought, bought and bought. Hell, I would buy those 5 billion copies if Apple gave us an option to re-purchase apps.
i've seen a few with similar problems upon starting the game. Memory has often been full. It's parsing the entire world into the memory upon start so it lacks a bit failsafe. They solved it by a re-install. Sorry for the inconvenience. In the magical mythical much talked about 1.2 I have optimized the amount of memory used for the gameworld to a minimum which should erase most related problems. And thanks for all your nice comments. I sit here in my little swedish house and like. "Yeah, i'll have another cup of coffee! I'm worth it!"
"This is the trailer, isn't it?" Hahahaha awesome! As luck would have it, I own both an iPad, and an iPhone 4s, so I guess I'll just have to be patient... But wait, I can read the instructions! Does anyone remember games having those? It was half the fun, opening those big cardboard boxes, and delving into the sometimes massive books, containing all kinds of lore and art. The first Starcraft comes to mind. But I digress, excuse me while I get my copy before they run out Edit: Yeah you are, do you realize how many people around the world are boasting a smile because of you? That's gold right there!
Same problem here with Iphone 6 non jailbroken and ios 9.2 but I made the "IT Crowd" rule : turn off and on my device and whouaah ! This game deserves 5 stars ! Great job and pure gem here ! Waiting for the update for correcting all those problems but I'm already in love with it !
So glad this game was front paged so I could see the trailer! Immediate buy and I have been making Capt Cowboy dance along to the bgm for the past 5 mins.
