Designing and iterating on user interface. A natural evolution. Designing and iterating on user interface. A natural evolution. The user interface is a really important aspect to any videogame. In Horizon Chase for iOS we had to find the perfect balance between the objectivity of a good mobile game and the simplicity we inherit from the classic references we took inspiration from. In this interview we talked to our UI artist Leandro Verassani, who explains us how some key menus and screens were designed and their evolution through time until the game launched:
Your game is fabulous. Yes IOS9 is problematic, but IOS9.1 is a different story. It will be out soon and i hope you can fix some stutter that happens when a text shows on screen.
Huge terrible flaw in the game is you can't advance unless you have a certain amount of tokens which is fine but their is no way to earn more tokens if you already raced all your races because it won't add tokens again from redoing a race you have already done. I've been stuck on section 3 for two months because there is no possible way for me to earn tokens now. Please fix this. It's terrible . Great game but what's the point if I can't get further. If it's a bug please fix the bug. I've never seen this in a game in this generation. Again this game is so in but what gives
Sorry, but I think you are mistaken. I don't recall any of the many people who have played this game mentioning this token issue. There's got to be something you are missing...
Not sure if you're serious, but... You need to "High Score" (or tokens as you put it) so that means replaying stages and doing better at them. You'll need to rank First at the race, and pickup all the blue thingies on the race track. If you ace on these 2 requirements you will receive the high score shown in the Track Score. Finishing the race with more fuel also adds to this score which can potentially give a score higher than the max, but the fuel bonus isnt needed to unlock further tracks.
Yephad to delete the game and it started working again. Not sure what the issue was with it but it's resolved now. Thanks to the member who pm me
Fantastic game! Just beat the game with all gold medals. Too lazy to go for pro for all levels. But boy, getting gold on the last normal stage had me sooooo close to rage deleting the game. But whew..finally did it after like 20 or so races!
Slowly progressing through this game, and was dropping serious hours on this the last couple days. Definitely got its hooks sinking deep in me. Fantastic fantastic game.
On Ios9.1 sometimes music stop working and sometimes the engine noise stops. And framerate is not stable on Ipad Air 2.
I haven't actually been back to this for a while I've finished everything with gold and pro bar 1 level I haven't got pro on and I got irritated trying for it and haven't been back since.

Been wanting this one for a while, and now that I have a little extra cash, it was the first game I bought and I was not disappointed! The nostalgia is super thick here, it reminds me so much of old NES racing games that I grew up with. The first thing that popped in my head was Rad Racer, followed by the scene from The Wizard where that kid was playing it with the power glove! Lol! Anyone who is 30+ should know what I'm talking about
Since the last update the Aquiris logo when you start the is only part on the screen on my old iPhone 4s which is still on ios 7.1.2 after that the game runs fine still. Just wanted to let you know
