To me it is a very tough call. The monster one is probably more impressive in itself, but somehow I thought that we ought to have the plasma sword on the icon, since it is a central item and it fits better with the title.
Yeah makes sense. You could have the running character kinda as a shadow in the background behind the alien dude.
You mean like on the third icon? Or you literally meant a shadow? Haha we'd need another poll set up...
Thanks! Suggestions help us make the game better, but positive feedback motivate us to complete the game! Since that's our only salary, I suppose that should count for something lol.
Yeah like literally a shadow. Kinda zoomed in a faded out so you can still see him but he doesn't stand out so much.
All I can say is this game has my attention...it is going to do well I betcha Endless running games are really hot..and this one seems to be rising above all the copycats..nice! I hope you utilize ingame social media for bragging rights and scores... cheers!
Thanks for the boost! The game is openfeint enabled, and I think they give the users a 'bragging' option. It will be a great game for that since it is skills and adrenaline oriented, although we would not force down social media notifications on players, like some other games seem to do. The game will have something like 40 achievements and at least one leaderboard per level of difficulty (for both story mode and endless mode).
My choices are 4 and 1 respectively ..I agree since the plasma sword is the main deal, the icon should have it in there..
To break that tie, im going to say I like the one with just the sword more. It's the focus of the game, and isn't as cluttered. The other icon will get lost on a full page of apps, it has too much going on, and the colours are similar to sooo many other apps-- whereas the one with just the sword will stand out much better. It's simple, and without any words I will know it's a game about a plasma sword.
I must admit that my own opinion is kinda split in between everyone. The first ones depict exactly what the game is about, a runner with a plasma sword. But the character might lack a little something. The second one even adds to the representation of the game, and I like the look a lot, but it might be a little cluttered. The third one is sharp, simple and perhaps more punchy visually. But I'm concerned that in its uber-simplicity, it fails to tell that the game is a runner and that it makes the game look a bit cheap.
