I haven't played it yet but I guess that a lot of tears and sweat will get me to 90 maybe, but I can see you have left enough horizontal space for scores that will run into the thousands, millions, billions, brazilians even!
Gameplay video now available The quality is pretty poor as the camera I used wasn't the best - sorry! However there is a nice long video of all the features and levels of Taxi Jam here! Cheers guys! Ringo nerv media
When I first read about this game I dismissed it as being yet another traffic management clone, of which there are an increasing number in the App Store. But going by the video which I watched today, TaxiJam does actually look like being really good. Hopefully it will be available soon.
Thanks Thanks Moggy, Posts like that really cheer us up whilst we are at the hands of apples review process - hopefully it will be released any day now and we will be able to start dishing out the promo codes. Cheers, Ringo nerv media
Thanks for the video! Thanks for the video! First, I like the vertical splash screen! Great! second, gameplay looks great, managing multiple taxis seems to be working great, and it looks very different from other path drawing games. Last question, does it support multi-touch (moving 2 cars at the same time)?
Multi touch Thanks for the feedback jeep, again apologies for such a low quality video. We did investigate multitouch during dev time, but found it to be too difficult to use when this feature was turned on, and as such decided to turn it off altogether. Thanks for the posts. Ringo nerv media
Update Hello Guys, Just a little update. Still no word from apple I am afraid - it has been in review for two weeks now, and we are still waiting - Lets keep our fingers crossed for a release sometime this week. Cheers, Ringo nerv media
That's good news for the less gifted among us, starting with me! Patience, there's quite a few things held up in the pipeline at the mo, so it should come out at some point ....
I love management games like these. I just watched the long video with all the features of this game and the graphics looks lovely, but I don't see the real challenge yet in this game? The traffic (police cars, firetruck ect.) doesn't appear that often in your sample video (after playing 1:20 minutes long, the firetruck appears), which makes the gameplay look rather easy? I do love the multiple taxi's though!
Challenge Hi ChiJuku, Thanks for your comments, we spent a lot of time working out the dificulty ramping throughout each level, and during the video the levels were not played out to the completion of the ramping as it was more the features of the game and the method of play that we were trying to get across. We hope that when the game is released (if apple ever get it through the review system limbo we seem to be in) the ramping will be easy enough to engage first time players but also hard enough to keep you trying to beat your last score. The beta testers we have on the game certainly seemed pleased with what we have done and we really hope you will be too. We look forward to hearing your thoughts once the game is released. Cheers, Ringo nerv media
