    Anyone else having any problems with this game after the update on their 4S?

    It crashes for me at the Halfbrick Logo loading menu when it boots.

    Great update!

    Two things I’ve always noticed when using a Head Start:

    1. You don’t get credit for brushing past red lights.

    2. You DO get credit for zapper zig-zagging even when flying a pure straight line. I’d expect to log one or two zig-zags by luck, but Head Start always completes a zig-zag mission entirely, no matter what you do (or so it seems to me).

    (I’d report these through Halfbrick.com, but the site seems to be down at the moment.)

    You get credit for flying above zappers with a head start, as well. If that is working as intended, then zigzagging makes sense too, since it's just alternating flying above/below zappers. Whether or not you mess up and go above multiple zappers doesn't matter anyways, so if you go 750m down the center, you can expect that you'll have plenty of zappers both above and below you.

    It does seem odds to me that zapper missions are completed during a head start, but not red light ones. I feel like they should either both count or neither of them (preferably both, haha).

    Yeah, you can get all your items and coins back if you sign in with the same Open Feint/GC account, I believe.
    Missions aren't transferred, though.

    Hey thanks! Glad you are enjoying it!

    We just tested it on a bunch of 4S's with various configurations / iOS's and can't reproduce any problems. If anyone is getting problems, please contact me in a PM.

    I know what you mean, it just seems (hard to be sure) that it’s “too perfect". I think it works even if you fly at the lowest or highest point, instead of through the middle. Hard to re-test—I just have to wait for the situation to come up again! Maybe you’d still clear the “totally flat” high/low zappers, but those aren’t so common that I’d expect to finish those missions every time—and so far, it has been every time.
