So is there ever a point to a Grim Reaper OVER a Vase? I mean they apoear to have an identical effect other than the Vase needs an extra tap, right? Also, unless I'm blind, why isn't the score in game? How can I gauge how close I am to beating a record with no visible score in what is a fun score chasing game?
Yeah we are friends with Kori (he has been playing Muertitos like crazy, actually we are discussing the possibility of him making a skin for Muertitos ) Thanks for helping us sharing the game in other places JCho133, If you post it in another site, let us know Vases are difficult to get on the lottery and also appear in the board. Also the vase main purpose is to push an empty space. Oh yes, the score isn't available while you are playing, we are going to correct that. Thanks for playing!
Your updates sound exciting! Artwork-wise, what about overall themes as well as new head sets? Like an iOS 8 "flat" theme similar to Faif, or a retro pixellated theme or things like that? I was thinking you could be "inspired" by Zelda Majora's Mask without necessarily infringing on the Big N....
Thinking of other modes to the game that can be implemented. Even though I don't like clock based games you could do a 10min challenge, the highest score in 10min (or another time value) Counting down clock which starts at 5min and decreases, the only way to increase the time is when you make a match, match 3 for a extra number of seconds, match 4 for a larger number of extra seconds. Tough challenge mode where there are no bonus items earned, same as usual game but with no pots, wildcards etc. Just some ideas.... Again love the game and the music.
Grabbing this when I get home from work for my iPad. Is there an iPhone version in the works? You are missing out on a lot of sales if not.
Speaking about the game itself, I'm really glad I bought it. Great app and great game...I'm starting getting the hang of it planning ahead to raise my score. One small thing I would change is that the game wouldn't end when you move last mask AND you still have some powers, like the death. I didn't expect the game to end...I would end it in these cases: 1)last push and NO powers 2)last push and manual 'give up' from the player. Besides that, it's really a nice game. I would like a bit more emphasis on the (really cool) masks...with a bit more 'personality' attached to them, maybe via sounds (Threes style)...and a bit more emphasis when new one appears. Art is terrific and needs more 'exposure'. Also, I would make this timeframe a bit longer...usually in 10 minutes you already unlocked every mask...should be longer imho (I'm more a 'discover new things' than 'chase a highscore' type of guy). In Threes it took me days to unlock new characters. I'm mentioning Threes not because the games are similar (they are, but they are different enough) but because I see this one having the same potential. Other things I would add, if possibile: 1) Visible score as you play as already asked. 2) Would be cool, as usual in these types of games, seeing when you actually bested a GC friend score in realtime...maybe with a pop up or something...and a more immediate in app way to send challenges. Other than this...it's pretty perfect...will be a mainstay on my iPhone.
Thanks for all the comments and recommendations. There is something people aren't really using in the game, tap on the animated skull that's on the home screen. We are uploading a mini update today with the score visible in game and removing those annoying notifications.
