If someone really felt they needed the live version they would have to contact the developer. Apple isn't going to cater to this.
Still in my download history for now. Redownloaded it anyway as I had to get rid of it for space reasons originally. Crappy situation for sure.
Hello everyone, First of all, thank you for sharing your thoughts about our game, we are surprised someone still remembers it after one year. Despite the 4,1/2 stars on TA, the game hasn't been a commercial success as we hoped. Anyway, as you have noticed, we uploaded a new version of The Beggars Ride on the store. This is because, for various reasons (the wrong sale someone of you mentioned is among those), we terminated the partnership with our publisher and were now selling the game directly through our account. Unfortunately it hasn't been possible to transfer the game to our account because we used the iCloud system and it makes the game not transferable in the Apple policy. However, the old version is still on the store, is just hidden, and everyone who bought it can download it. We will NOT remove that version and nor will our former publisher. The 2 versions are exactly the same, so our old and new players will have the same experience, we just removed the publisher splashscreen at the very beginning and a couple of absolutely minor fixes. Were sorry if this new version upload did cause some concern!
That reason is more than convincing and enough for me to redact my previous statement altogether. While I may not intend to come back to the game, I will gladly support you guys in order to own a version of the game you can update freely and to commend you for your transparency and frank post. I cannot say how much I respect that.
Completely agree. I have an enormous amount of respect for honest developers, and these guys just earned endless support from myself after reading their post explaining the situation.
Incredible developer here. They did also mail me with the same info. And personally this is the type of Dev I want to support. I went ahead and purchased the 2nd released copy. Even though there's no change but the splash screen. I do have a code from the Dev also and I would be happy to share it with someone here who feels they need the new release (same game, same version). Just state a good case for why you prefer it and you would have to prove you purchased the original release and it's yours. Anyways awesome Dev. And awesome community here at TA.
I don't have a copy of the original game was always interested but I read in the reviews a while back that it had issues that weren't resolved so I moved on but really do love the look of the game and would really love the code so I can try it out I would really appreciate the offer If not its cool Thank you anyway It's a pretty cool gesture I'll probably eventually buy the game Thanx again Be good
Jumping to conclusions is just more fun. Besides it's video games, not something that is actually important.
While I'm pleased to better understand the issue I guess it's abbot disappointing to think this game won't be upgraded or if it is it would only be for this version and not the original release... just saying...
I'm confused. I bought this January 2016, but this appears to be a different version. This one has a different link on the App Store. What has changed?
Think another dev took it over. Think the original wasnt sadly as successful as they wanted so must have sold it on. Had another go this morning, a really good game
Nah, the actual devs of the game took over it, while it was under a publisher (can't remember who) previously.
There have been no updates since its release. Are there any critical bugs in completing the game? I'm going to try this time.
