    Maybe I'll just wait for the Android version. My Game Center is making this game unplayable.

    Do devs get this info...? That would always be an interesting stat.

    Not for iOS.

    What we see is daily active users, which is on par with our other games.
    These bugs are terrible annoying however not widespread like 1 out of 1000 installations. Which is still bad as that is 320 unhappy players.

    Working on the issue!

    Oh, just realized now that the devs are Hungarian. :)

    I really enjoy the game. I don't agree with those, who say the game is too simple. You have to keep in mind what your objection is (sometimes you have a task requesting to avoid red lanes, no crashing or on the contrary, crash into swerving cars, collect repair kits), you have to keep track of your state, whether you can pick up a repair kit you see ahead (if you can spot) and of course not to forget to get back to the sides to tank. I think it is plenty enough, it doesn't have to be overwhelming. The game is super fun and extremely enjoyable after a long working day (of programming :D).
    I suggest not to skip cars/tiers, as you will miss out. With the different characteristics of the cars and speed, they play slightly differently.

    Currently at level 17, distance 33.89k (at the start of lap 8), tier 3.
    Is there a level cap? Hope not. :)
    It would be nice to have a sound alarm and/or screen pulsing when there is a repair kit coming.
    Could have some extra achievements. Interesting, that there is an achievement for unlocking a car, but not for actually getting it.

    It seems to me that sometimes there are no or almost no swerving cars. Thought there are more occuring in the first tiers, but probably is random. Strangely though in the last 2 runs there was just 1 (in 7 laps for both).

    Just blocked the 1000th "player" out of Daytona Rush leaderboards.
    So much fun!

    Kind of like a car based "running" game... I'm not a fan of Nascar, but I'm addicted to this game

    Daytona players,

    There is an update currently waiting for review. What's new in 1.2:
    • Option to select swipe or tap control (replaces current auto detection that fails sometimes)
    • 'Progress lost' fix
    • Game Center crash fix (really! :))
    • Easier to notice Repair Wrench
    • Minor stability improvements

    No new Cars or other achievements? Very sad.

    Note that v1.2 is a quick update fixing the most critical issues.

    The update we are actively working, v1.3 sports:
    • Nightly Races
    • Ability to upgrade cars to a higher tier up to Tier 5
    • Hungarian localization :)
    • Simplifying leaderboards: one for Distance records, one for cumulated Gold (explained later, for now think about it as Reputation)
    • Some new missions related to the new features
    • Still no in-apps and pop-up ads. :)

    I just tried this game for the fist time and WOW! I can't remember the last time I've had this much fun with an endless runner. Plus the 100% free part is super cool, but how does the dev make any of their well-deserved money in it? Anyway, keep up the good work!

    Thanks! :)
    We get about $10 per 1000 video ad views.

    Hmm well your loss because while we're playing and getting updates with new things your gaining nothing? There's no adverts unless you click the button to double your cash earning so I don't see what the big deal is.

    I agree. The ads in this game are done right. I hate, HATE ads! But the way they are done in this game I can live with. It's a good game.

    And devs only $10 per 1000 views that seems really low to me? Is that the going rate?
