Yes! Send them to [email protected]. Do you have the crash dumps as well? I can detail to you how to get those by email as well. Thanks!
Hi! I'm guessing you had emailed me recently. Having trouble matching emails with TouchArcade names You can post your impressions if you want!
Thank you very much! Lord knows I'm putting a lot of work into it. Juggling life + dev is a balancing act
Screenshot and trailer smorgasborg! Here it is, my new "The Balls!" trailer! Bask in its epicness (or at least enjoy the cool soundtrack) Screenshots incoming!
When the developer asked me to help beta test this I was a bit hesitant, because quite honestly it didn't look or sound like a whole lot of fun. I decided to take him up on the offer anyway, and I'm glad I did. There's a 90 second attack mode that's okay, but there's not a lot of motivation because you can't really lose anything other than score (no lives, no grenades, etc). The real treat is in the main mode. It's a real fine juggling act between simply tapping balls to keep them afloat and flinging them to keep them alive longer and consequently score more points. Then you toss in the grenades, which are instant death, and the fact that you only have three lives (you lose one any time a ball falls off the bottom of the screen), and it doesn't take too long before things get hectic and adrenaline filled. There are still some minor adjustments that need to be made to the controls and some unfair timing issues that need to be worked out, but overall I think this game has the potential to be in line with such casual games as Fruit Ninja and Veggie Samurai, and thankfully it doesn't feel like a clone of either.
Thank for the great feedback Those two issues you mentioned I am currently tackling this week, lots of work to wrap-up, I'm almost done!
LOL!!!! Just saw the trailer... amazing! Can't wait until it comes out. Great job on the screen shots too. I'm sure this is going to be a hit. When do you plan to release it?
Yeah I had complaints about the old one that it was confusing since it looked 3d and was at an angle. So I just went with some more straightforward and colorful.
I'm aiming to upload to Apple within a week, and from my experience it's about 5-7 days for approval, so end November/beginning of December would most likely be the release date
Any word on the release date? So my son got a hold of the beta version of the The Balls and loved it! Any word on the release date?
Thanks to Epox for updating the first post for me I hadn't realized until much later that I wasn't the owner of the first post! It's updated with the new trailer, screenshots, and some choice juicy quotes from recent beta testers who've posted in this thread. Enjoy!
This app is addicting. I'll put it like this its like fruit ninja but a little harder and just as addictive.
