    Adding extra controls

    Also, to everyone who has some trouble with the controls, I currently have plans to add an alternate control system. My goal is to get it done till the official release. If anyone want's to help me test it, I'll provide more promo codes :)

    Alright. I'll help out with the test build. Might as well turn a seemingly bad purchase into a purposeful one. Anything you need?

    Thank you so much :D

    Here's a priority list:
    1. Does it run or crash on your device? Which device/os version are you running?
    2. If it runs, how smoothly is it running? Are there any noticable lag spikes?
    3. Does the controls work properly?
    - Checklist
    + Shooting missiles(are you hitting/missing your target)
    + Screen clutter(can you keep track of what is going on? Are you aware of enemies as they approach you)
    + Dodging(are you able to get out of harms way/are you doding unintentionally?)
    + Challenge(is the game fun/hard/easy? do you like powerups/enemy variation)
    4. Suggestions(any suggestion you might have for improving the game)

    I'll work on the game until it is properly tested and polished for the iOS. I'll do some research to find out if Apple can offer refunds for anyone who got the accidental build. I'll update this thread once I know.

    Edit:
    I did some research, for anyone looking to get a refund, you can do this through iTunes Store. If you go to your purchase history, and press *see all* you'll be able to press a button called *report a problem*. Use this to request a refund. For anyone who wants to help in the testing process, or can't get any refunds, feel free to contact me at [email protected]. I will do my very best to help you.

    Hope this doesn't annoy anyone but grabbed NNAFN677N9FP because I really do like this game and wanted to see of I can do better on a phone (don't think this is very well suited to tablets).

    Also looking forward to updates to this version.

    Will be happy to give any feedback I can - particularly compared to the Android version.

    So when you ll release the final build does this will appear as an update to this version (for everybody that already bought the game) or it will be a total new one that you have to re buy it... I don't know how is working...

    Same version as this, so people don't need to re-buy :) Should we add additional content(like new levels, additional tracks, etc), this will also be done as new versions and not DLC.

    Nah... Refunds never happen to the PH appstore. Especially since im using a debit card and a credit card to purchase. I've requested about 6 or so times to be refunded but never heard anything from them.

    I also have a US account and i got refunded 3 out of 3 times, usually i get a reply from a representative about 48 hours since the request/report has been placed.

    I purchased it already too, so I'll help with the troubleshooting also. I'll PM you with the issues I have.

    I'm with you.

    "Murphy's Law" happened here...

    Too early release
    The icon ain't the same (ugly purple one, saying Savan...scent)
    No screen orientation
    No menue
    No pause button
    No Gamecenter !

    Playing on iphone5, last ios 6 version
    No crashes at all, so far
    Tilt works the best for me, and it's not even that bad (iphone of course)

    Nice to see the Devs here !
     
  17. Would love to help if you need help. I haven't tried the game, but is there a way to add dual stick controls?

    A lot of us were looking forward to it releasing and were seriously let-down by the initial version. It's great to see you in hear clearing things up and working on polishing the game.
     
  19. This game has alot of potential! Just if we get the control options changed, this could be one heck of a game!
