I would love to test out the flappy bird clone for you Email: [email protected] but that isn't my iTunes email. I can test on an iphone 5S and an Ipad 2 both with the latest version of ios 7
Thank you, CrimsonDivine! Either one is fine. Decide which device you use the most and then go to this address from that device: http://tflig.ht/OODise and register it. I should be sending a build over the weekend. Thanks again! Jorge
Hi Jorge, I've already signed up previously for Ice Math Ninja I've been playing Ice Flap Penguin that's out now (77 is my record so far) and it's pretty enjoyable. I'll be glad to help out on version 1.2
Hey Wing Optimus! So you are the one with 77! Thank for joining, noah0706, dreadnok, iANiMeX, vii-Lucky! Don't forget, anyone who wants to join, please go to from your device http://tflig.ht/1ckoeY4 I will have a new build in 2 days or so, PowerUps will be coming in 5 days or so. Jorge
First of all thank to the dev for letting me beta test this game. My impression might not be good tho as I am not a flappy game fan at all. I had flappy bird on my device, but after one run only, I understood that it was not for me, so when I tried this game, also it was cute, well I couldn't play enough to write a proper review. There are too many flappy games and I really think you should bring something new into the genre to make a bigger impact, it reminds me how many endless runner we were getting 5 or 6 months ago, now its all about flappy bird, flappy diver, flappy steak, flappy fried chicken or what so ever, so you should really try to make this game slightly different so that you could get more people. The penguin is a cute idea, make it swims between iceberg or the titanic with Romeo and Juliette
Hi djstout! Thank you for your honest feedback. I am actually a bit "ashamed" to be creating a Flappy Bird clone, but I am doing it to try something new and see if I can use this to promote my characters and my upcoming (more original) games. I am also using it to test a new ad network (Admob). I DO want to make it different than Flappy Bird, hence the idea of power ups and other goodies that will be coming in the next update. I just had to send something quickly to Apple to see if the game and name would even be approved. But trust me, I hate copying, and I will make this game as different as I can "Ice Toss Frenzy" is the game I am building towards, and all the games in between (The Pookie and Tushka storybook, Ice Math Ninja, Ice Flap Penguin, Ice Mash Candy) are my "learning path" towards my "big" game. Jorge
Well there is absolutely nothing wrong about copying a genre and I am sure you'll do great if you try to make it a bit different from other flappy games. Recently some dev made "tiny goalie", the idea is very similar to the flappy genre, but they made is unique and that is why now the game became so popular. I am sure that you will find good ideas to make it unique. Penguins are super cute, adding power ups (by eating fish as an example) could make it better, or maybe just like the tiny wings game, by changing the levels colours (background, obstacles and maybe the penguin) when you get farther. Or maybe by making a really good soundtrack for the game (the reason why I played tiny wings for so long was also due to the soundtrack). To make a simple game isn't that difficult, but to make it special is something else, try to make the game colourful (well not too much either). Having two game modes could also help a lot (endless for scores and story mode).
Hi. It's me! Just count me in for all your future games. Don't even ask. Just send! As a developer you are very creative. It's nice to see how you keep improving. Take care.
Hi Lavender I'll make sure to send you all the builds djstout: I do have a lot of ideas to make it different ... it's just that programming it takes time. But I already have some cool ideas ... we'll see how they come out
Hi Crimson, I sent a new build earlier today and you were added to the list. (only apps that have been setup for your device can be seen in Testflight). FYI, the build I sent today only has minor fixes, no power-ups yet. If you still have problems, let me know! Jorge
I guess everyone is making Flappy Bird clones, because even my clon has clones!!! They came out about a week after mine in Google Play: (mine is better )
Hi All, Just to give a quick update: I have the coding for the 5 Powerups "basically" done, but I still need to do the animations/effects/etc. I am hoping to have a new build to test by saturday. Thanks, Jorge
