Disregard my last comment, that's kinda how I did it: 2 random power-ups 2 sec longer than normal + 1 extra sec per upgrade up to 5 upgrades. There will also be 3 exclusive trail look unlocked when completing all missions (including hot dog trail hehe).
Just remade the trailer to better represent the current state of the game. Lacked ideas to make a fancier video, so it's as minimalistic as the game hehe
Maybe just some quick shots in there that show each of the powerups and their descriptions..maybe a shot of each tail in action..pop these up during the gameplay and fade them out? Dang a times played or times died counter sure would be neat..show the counter at end of vid..times played=12,211 or some crazy number..it would imply the addictive quality of the game.
Checking in..reports of another close to finishing missions..K has one left..the ever hard get 100 points without any blocks..seems easy but noo.. So by your numbers it takes how long to finish these missions? Hmm..funny thing is I'm almost done wrapping them again #
Saw email for survey, would be cool to somehow see everyone's answers anon of course..just to see how we all felt about game? A thought.
I'll wrap-up an average or something once more reports are in. Right now, we've had about 30% of return. This should coincide with the final beta build.
No emergencies. We just opened the Android beta registration. At worst there will be some cross between the 2 betas, nothing of consequence. Hoping for a release late January, will make an official announcement later.
No hard deadline, better late than never but the earlier the easier it is to sneak last min changes in. I'll probably prepare the (probably) final beta build within 48 hours. Submission to Apple won't happen before another week at least.
The new (and probably last) build is ready! Thanks everyone for your amazing support! 0.8.5 - Hard stats reset: in order to better protect high score submission, data is now encrypted. You should erase the app before installing this version since at best it will reset your data and at worst it might create bugs. Your data will be lost one way or another (sorry for that but that's a necessary step). - Added rewards when completing all missions: a double-power-up and 3 exclusive trails and a trophy in main menu - Added the base for achievements (right now they are reset at every game. That feature will only be completed in the retail version) - Added a second song - Downgraded coin score value to 3 - Added a bunch of social options to share your highscores or the game link (link will only be valid once the game is live) - Removed enemies on upward slopes - Added some sfx, for instance on mission complete - Bunch of tweaks and fixes
Getting closer and closer to launch Beta has started on Android. Submitting to Apple next week hopefully. Here's some of the incoming iTunes pics Also made a new iteration of the icon:
