    Hey, weisome, the IAP is more of a trial thing.
    The game has the first few challenges for free, the rest is bought.

    We are a bit worried the Jet will be too hard for some. It has quite a learning curve. It might have been better to have some easier Jet levels upfront, however, it is possible to master.

    Don't know what magic you pulled, but somehow the physics and controls feel even tighter than the first JCS. Maybe it's because I'm using the buggy and not the original car? Oh, and the restart on reset setting is brilliant

    I've done like 3 levels already and I can already see this game is a huge improvement and evolution over the first game.

    Off topic: but is there any chance of this game coming to PC? I've seen a lot of quality IOS games being ported to PC and Steam and I really think that this game would be incredible on PC. Besides Trackmania, I can't think of any other PC indies that represent this over-the-top platformer racing genre.

    Yeah I'm slowly getting there. My only complaint with the game is the size of the text on my ipod touch 5th gen. The menu should be taking up the whole screen rather than just being framed in the center.

    Wait so every one of the 120 levels has an alternate version for Hard difficulty? So we really have 240 different levels essentially?

    Yeah, I know. I fully support this method of IAP and already bought the Mega Pack. I'm just worried that others (you know, some of the ignorant type you see on the App Store reviews) might not react kindly to the IAP, complaining that you have to pay to play.

    I agree with Bronxsta. Super-tight controls, great user interface and just an overall upgrade from JCS 1. Earlier in this thread there was a breakdown of the in app purchases, but the only one I've encountered is the $4.99 unlock. Doesn't matter, that's the one I'm buying, but some might not want everything.

    Edit: never mind I see on the store in the game is an array of options, I was just looking at what the AppStore listed ;)
     
  8. Liking the game so far, better than the first for sure.

    Not quite, only Platforming and Time Trial have different geometry on hard.

    So 220 different levels.

    Not including the user levels of course. I noticed a couple new ones have been posted.

    Hmm.. I can't buy anything. The IAP is all greyed out. I don't do facebook so I didn't link the account to it. I noticed I can't change my profile name either using true axis server login. It never asked for a password too.

    Awesome. That's an insane amount of content for $4.99. No one better complain about IAP, because there are very few games where you're getting that much content for $5

    I can't wait to see what levels people make for the Compact and Jet

    It won't ask for a password. It will autogen one and share it via iCloud with your other devices, unless you want to use facebook.

    I have no idea why all the IAP is greyed out and you can change your name, unless you where having internet connection problems. Maybe just try again later. Seems to have worked for others so far.

    Is there once again no gamecenter achievements? I'm not knocking the game or anything, I just feel like achievements in my opinion adds value. It gives you accomplishments to strive for outside of the the general gameplay. Will you be adding it at any point?

    Internet is definitely working. I am using it to post this from my ipad3. I have 4.7gb available so I know it isn't that. I am on 7.0.3 version of ios. Maybe it is related to not updating ios. I force quit the game and started it again but IAP is still greyed out.

    Well, it was an insta-buy for the mega pack, but I decided to go through the free content first and muck around with the level editor. After entering my iTunes credentials for the pack purchase, the game hung and crashed, and has been unable to get past the True Axis splash screen since, even after reinstalls and rebooting my device :(

    Jet is just awesome :p Somewhat practice your skills and get to grips with the flight while using the Compact, and then the jet simply adds in the speed :D

    We will most likely add them at one point. We just decided this game had been delayed way too long already and decided to make some tough decisions and take a couple short cuts such as leaving Achievements for an update.

    Here come the bugs:(

    Thanks for all the detail. The OS version shouldn't be a problem. Logging out of game center and force quiting might be worth a try. Otherwise logging out of game center and restarting your phone might be worth a try.

    App crackers have caused IAP to brake before in True Skate.

    The only other thing I can think to suggest is clearing any iCloud data. It could also be something in the key chain that survives uninstalling.

    I don't like the IAP system at all. If it wasn't for this thread, I would be so damn lost in the store I would just delete the game and forget about it. I don't understand why it has so many options.

    We actually, wanted to clarify the text before release, but we are waiting for approval. Thanks for the feedback though.

    But do you really think that the game needs so many packs? I mean, it has some levels available for free so people can try the game before buying anything. People who like the game will buy the mega pack, and those who don't won't buy anything. If it had to be free, I think that one full pack would be enough, otherwise lite app + premium app.
