Universal Gravity Hook HD - (by Semi Secret)

Agree on both points, especially the twitter problem as the only way out of it is to exit/enter the game.

 

Same problem also occurs in certain instances when trying to edit your account.

 

The keyboard goes away for me on my iPad.

And I also have to agree about the leaderboards -- if they remain top 100, at least get rid of duplicate names. And a tutorial and/or help screen would have been nice. But as someone else mentioned, hooking while you are close to an orb seems to help.

 

Agreed.

At the same time, I don't think the Devs price any of their games under 2.99 (canabalt), nor do I think this game will ever go on sale.

Quite sad really. Really craving this on the iphone, but not so much that I want to spend 2.99 on it.

 

Wow, another gem from Semi Secret, and it plays perfectly on my 1st gen iPod Touch. I'm first place on the classic leaderboard (atm).

Edit: Grr, on the "Today" and "Week" leaderboards at least.

 

Look, I think this is a very nice game. Without question however, overpriced. Same thing goes for Canabalt and I bought both anyway. Sometimes we pay a little extra for things we want. I also count it as a plus that the devs are pricing their games this way out of conviction, (however misguided) as opposed to plain ignorance, followed by a quick sale.

 

I fully support and agree with these opinions about a billion per cent!
Although I really really don't want Openfeint - I'd just prefer for the custom board to be "fixed".

 

Fully agree. I really like Semi Secret's custom leaderboards but I feel they can be improved.

 

I like them too but they never got improved on canabalt so that's why I mentioned the openfeint. It's very frustrating when so much work goes into the game and yet the leaderboards are missing very important features.

I would also play canabalt more if the leaderboards were better. Just the top 100...really? With names repeated ? Not knowing how many people you are competing with, not being able to add friends ....etc

I was so frustrated with canabalts leaderboards and now these are the same

The leaderboards are missing alot of features and do not match the quality of the games they make.

 

True and true. But hopefully if we all make enough noise now - I mean, if we all make enough polite requests now, then maybe the developer will fix these issues now, seeing as this is a new game and is being promoted now.

Canabalt still needs fixing on other issues, never mind the scoreboards, but who knows what's happening there...

 

Heh.

 

Who ever has this and playing it on the iPad, would you recommend it as a good pick up and play game?

 

Yes, but they need a tutorial / instructions.

 

Anyone else seeing this?
In my local scores, my name appears to be alternating between being listed as "BrettArchibald" and "rettArchibald". For some reason the first "B" character has been dropped?
Even the default in-built player usernames are being alternately listed as "Player" and "layer", where the initial "P" character is missing.

 

Great game, but unfortunately the high score tables are messed up for me.





Guess my user name's too long, but it's the same one I use for Canabalt.

 

Could never tell this is from the guys who made Canabalt with that font.

 

what do the red mines do?

 

You die if you touch them.

 

What, the ones that randomly beep for no reason?

There is green ones, which don't hurt you, blue ones, which turn spiky when touched and kill you if your character then touches them. and red ones that beep when you touch them and kill you th4e same as the blue ones, but what else do they do?

 

Semisecret, thanks for a great, addicting, highly polished game. I only wished the leader boards didn't feature multiple scores from the same user. Thanks
