WOOT! I guess it will take a while to show. I keep refreshing. Will post some pyramid pics shortly afterwards. Thanks Frand.
It seems to be available on the App Store (at least in the US and Finland). The update mechanism may be slower to notice it, but deleting the old version and re-downloading did get the latest version on my iPhone already.
It's showing up in my updates now. Thanks. Lot of content in this update too I see. Sweet. [Currently 7th on leaderboards for now at least lol!] Couple Pics: Shows a little bit of background.
version 1.2.5 is out: What's new: - Top online scores shown inside the game (both level select and intro screens) - High scores shown after every dismount - One new level - Clear face -button in face selection screen - Your own face can now be selected in the list of Facebook friend faces - Mr. Dismount's Facebook account and Secret Exit's Twitter pages linked in the About-screen - Select scenario -button in the in-game options-screen - Updated OpenFeint leaderboards - New games list under "Secret Exit" -button in the main menu - Frame rate improved on some 1st Gen devices (due to a sound fixed sound issue)
I gotta say, I'm really liking this new version. The simple tweaks to the score display really add to the competitive nature of the game - I handed it over to my wife after trying the new pyramid level, and she was really chasing that high-score. Speaking of which, that Pyramid Scheme level is awesome. I was expecting a simple flat-faced pyramid, so was initially disappointed (IMHO flat sides would work brilliantly, much like the ski-slope.) ..but after trying it a little I was hooked. It's like stairs, but you can push him down in any direction. That adds a lot to the strategy. I eventuallly got my highscore by a head-push to the side ..more variable in the points, coz the arms can get in the way. But if you can get a lucky bounce on the head or two, it works very well. Any chance of removing the Open Feint icon from the App icon on the actual iPhone. It's a separate icon to the one displayed on the store and in iTunes. You guys do such well designed stuff, it's a shame to see that there messing up the clean style.
Nice to see my No.1 Pyramid score is still there, not sure for how long though Great update though guys, please keep adding new and interesting structures/stairs.
Nice update! Secret Exit likes Minigore. How about a crossover? Throwing John down the stairs of hardland and Mr Dismount in minigore!
One feature to consider for a future update please Frand... Could you have it remember where you last had the arrow for each level? That no.1 pyramid score I got today, I knew I'd found a really good "sweet spot" to push him but I had to leave Stair Dismount running all day on my iPhone just so I could keep coming back to it to try that same spot with different pushing power to finally get my score. Yes there is luck involved but also there is a bit of skill in finding a really good sweet spot on certain levels and it would be nice if it would remember the position you last used on each level, should be a fairly simple update I would imagine Thanks again, great game.
So, it was YOU who bumped me from the #1 spot!! What happened to the "overall" high score category on OF?
It's still there, but it's the second from the bottom. Unfortunately we have no way of sorting the leaderboards in OF.
Excellent. And thanks a bunch for all the hard work Ive been playing Stair & Truck Dismount on pc and you'll see me on the Truck leaderboards occasionally. Richard
Does anyone on TA know how this happened? Was there a German iPhone site that mentioned the Lite version? Just yesterday, Stair Dismount Lite was downloaded about 3880 times in Germany, leaving any other country in the world in its shadow by a multiple of about 10. And 160 people in Germany bought the full version too, Danke schön!
I bought it at launch and it deserves it! But I dunno, the germans like cruel games? O r do they download anything that is free? Hmmm... Just read some reviews, they are saying that they want more maps (WTF, for me, there are too many ) and it unfortunately has a 3 star rating... And no major site coverage...
A small request for assistance to the TA community: We've seen a bunch of 1-star reviews for Stair Dismount Lite, all saying that the game fails to start and returns back to the dashboard straight from the first loading screen. On all of our development devices (which includes all the devices yet released) the game works just as expected, we can't reproduce this problem. So, if anyone here is experiencing the issue, please reply to the thread. It would be nice to get some more information on the matter. 1) Does the game fail to start consistently or randomly? 2) What happens if you turn the device off and back on again, and start the game as the first thing after a fresh boot? 3) Is your device storage full (all loaded up with songs and apps etc.)? 4) Which OS version are you running? 5) Does the game still fail to start if you delete it from the device and re-install by syncing from the computer? Thanks to everyone who can respond.
