    Aww thanks! What level did you get to in an hour? I'm trying to figure out the playtime of the game haha. It seems to vary wildly from person to person.

    I just remembered one particular level after I accidentally turned platform the right way

    Well this is a bit tasty, I’m enjoying every minute of this. I’ve been stumped on occasion but never frustrated. Feels like a bit of a timeless iOS classic to me.

    Thank you! I really hope it becomes a classic. Just needs more people to get their hands on this so it actually becomes one. Hopefully.

    If you have the time, please also review the game on the App Store. It could really help. Thank you so much!

    Thank you so much, everyone, for the support and overwhelmingly positive response to Puzzling Peaks EXE. We got featured in the New Games We Love in Southeast Asian countries! Wish it was worldwide, but I am still very grateful.

    really like this having nearly bounced off it immediately as I thought the controls were swipe to spin the platforms, not touch and hold on each side.

    play all games on phone on silent so no clue what the story is but the controls feel like there is something there you have to practice with to get better, you'll suddenly bounce the ball round a level as intended and it feels great, then you'll totally fluke the next one and not know how.

    pretty good game and glad I didn't insta delete.

    Thank you so much for giving this a chance! I'm glad you liked it!

    I'm kinda curious though, what did you mean by swipe to spin the platforms? I can't visualize how it would be like

    I thought the spinning of platforms was possible at different speeds depending on how fast you swiped in a direction (which would have been awful) - so was trying to make them spin faster by swiping harder up or down !

    Like I say I never have sound on for games and don't recall on screen text explaining how the controls worked.

    Haha! I get it now. Yeah. Would have been awful if that was the gameplay. Did intrigue though.

    Thanks for the feedback on the text too. It does appear on level 1. Maybe should be more obvious and a few seconds longer whenever this game gets updated. Thanks again

    Amazing game! About two hours in length. It's more than what it seems. Gave me good laughs and that fake ending got me. Didn't expect the twists too. Well, twists are expected since this is an AppSir game but it really was well done

    Thanj you so much for the review! Twist endings occuring have become so expected in the games that maybe one day in a future game the biggest twist would be no twist at all. Haha

    I'm up to level 95 and this is definitely one of my favourite games this year - gets quite tough when the blue reversed control platforms come in but never got stuck for too long.

    Any plans for more levels or additional content ?

    One of your fave games this year is one of the best things to hear as a game developer! THANK YOU!

    To be honest, we have no plans for additional levels yet because the ending is so definitive. We have to think of something lore-wise for the puzzles to happen again . Still, we're glad you appreciated the game.

    Sorry for the late response, at what part of the game are you on right now?

    I'm up to lvl 99

    Appreciate the reply, more than got my monies worth and not sure where the expectation of endless content for phone games costing £2 came from !

    my theory is that some game devs release games with fewer levels than there were supposed to or have already finished creating, because the promise of more "free" content coming in the future is alluring haha. when in reality it's a marketing scheme. just a theory by the way!

    so close to the end now! please tell me when you finish it haha because
    i had one user who thought it was over, and i had to clarify that he had to stay a while longer and not close the game yet. so i'm worried if this is what usually happens when people play this game, or this just happened to this one user.[/SPOILER ]

    I have a general games folder for most of my games. However, I have a singular folder labeled "AppSir" that captures your entire stable of games. Keep up the great work!
