Asked for my password and then said buy. Automatically I just clicked it. How much was this? ramzarules Well-Known Member Sep 13, 2014 2,112 128 63 Greece #3 ramzarules, Mar 8, 2017 zero. if it was any amount it would ask you, do you want to buy this for X money? as for this, checked it for the art but controls are opposite (gas on the left) and unchangeable. deleted MoluckY Active Member Nov 16, 2012 25 6 3 #4 MoluckY, Mar 8, 2017 Wasn't a fan of the controls myself.

Gotters Well-Known Member Oct 27, 2016 114 31 28 #6 Gotters, Mar 9, 2017 What's with the left handed controls - they are the wrong way round to every gaming convention with no option to swap ? Game seems a bit over sensitive and fiddle to play too. TheGanner Member May 18, 2014 18 0 1 #7 TheGanner, Mar 9, 2017 Seriously, the left handed controls with no option to switch is unbelievably stupid. Hopefully it was just a mistake and gets fixed soon erichate Active Member Mar 25, 2014 32 0 0 #8 erichate, Mar 9, 2017 Thanks for the feedback. We will look to get configurable controls into the settings for a future release. erichate Active Member Mar 25, 2014 32 0 0 #9 erichate, Mar 9, 2017 If players opt-in for ads (rewarded videos) they won't see any interstitials. Otherwise we mix in with x number of plays. For future release, if you support the game through a direct purchase ads will be hidden forever. erichate Active Member Mar 25, 2014 32 0 0 #10 erichate, Mar 10, 2017 FRHD is monetized through rewarded video ads (which are opt-in), if you don't watch any rewarded videos after a number of track plays you will hit a skippable video or interstitial. We are watching this closely but we need to pay for development and ongoing costs somehow. FiloMJ Well-Known Member May 16, 2015 1,407 22 38 Male #11 FiloMJ, Mar 10, 2017 I understand everything, but these skippable video or interstitial, imho, kill the game. Maybe my opinion will help you. That said I understand your needs. Only rewarded video ads would be the definitive solution imho. onemorelevel Member Jun 2, 2012 6 0 0 #12 onemorelevel, Mar 14, 2017 Last edited: Mar 14, 2017 Alternate controls were added in the last update, thanks for all the feedback. An IAP for disabling ads should be coming soon as well. ramzarules Well-Known Member Sep 13, 2014 2,112 128 63 Greece #13 ramzarules, Mar 15, 2017 i gave it another chance. the inverted control is one good step. now i could play on to stage 10 i thinkBUT the leaning controls are way off for touchscreen. you lean too much too fast with only the sloghtest tap. I wonder if you tested it any before releasing at touch screen. The controls in trials type games are EVERYTHING and with the leaning all over the place without sensitivity, it ruins the fun. If you want to work on your game, play Trials Frontier. see the godly controls of the bikes and emulate it. and rerelease your game imo because once you get off to a bad start its difficult to get people back. If it wants corrections in every update, this should be a testflight and not a finished version. Mojojo Member Mar 2, 2017 5 0 0 #14 Mojojo, Mar 18, 2017 Controls confusing me Its a ln interesting game though NaughtHere Well-Known Member Nov 14, 2010 87 0 0 #15 NaughtHere, Mar 18, 2017 I actually really like this game, but having to watch an ad after beating 2-3 5-second levels or in between deaths is supremely irritating and the skip button conveniently works only half the time. It's actually quicker to just force quit the app when an ad starts to load and re-launch the game. So that's what I've been doing. You could have just put non-video ads on menu screens or something. It's really overbearing and before I discovered the force quit trick, I would often just stop playing when an ad started loading. onemorelevel Member Jun 2, 2012 6 0 0 #16 onemorelevel, Mar 18, 2017 Thanks for the feedback, yes we agree that ad frequency needs some improving. The next update will have a remove ads option for 99 cents, and reduced ads overall. NaughtHere Well-Known Member Nov 14, 2010 87 0 0 #17 NaughtHere, Mar 18, 2017 Again, why not make the video ads rare or nonexistent and put banner ads in the menus and pause screens or something else that won't kill the pacing and flow of the game? I don't even watch the ads anymore. I either stop playing or force quit and restart when the same mobile strike ad plays for the 500th time. erichate Active Member Mar 25, 2014 32 0 0 #18 erichate, Jun 30, 2017 Updates!
