    Games are quickly becoming another art form. Take away the games music/sound effects and you're destroying the vibe the developer set out to create. It's entirely up to the creator whether or not he wants that to happen, and even when they do, the API doesn't come free of charge, it comes at a cost of processing power. Don't give us that full functionality crap because if it were true you'd be able to send SMS messages from within games as well. Something as pathetic as being able to play your own music is such a minor point in the grand scheme of things. Requesting its inclusion is fine but there are a few people here who are doing nothing more than moaning like typical, selfish, spoiled forum brats.

    I kinda laugh at the guy whining about the lack of music. What do you do that you are SO busy you cannot play a game if it doesnt let you listen to music at the same time? Get real.

    Although nice to just do away with the 2x button on the screen, it works perfectly in doubled mode as is. After all; the control placement doesn't need optimising, does it? :D

    I seem to be the only one to find it impossible to get to island 5 without a single coin???

    Any tips on how to do that? In particular missing the final slide where they're all lined up?

    I want to add that I totally agree with the demand for my own music. I have ignored or deleted games in the past for that very reason.
    HOWEVER...
    It doesn't present a problem with this game. I've listened to my own music throughout.
    Just start your music before you start the game. (If that's not working, make sure you close out the game in fast app switch.)

    5 cloud touches in fever mode - does this have to be in the SAME fever, or can you get 5 touches over several fevers?

    5 touches over several fevers. That would be quite the challenge to have to do 5 touches in one fever mode. :eek:

    This is one of the nicest games to come along in awhile! The Art Style is beautiful, and it's very addictive in a simple way. Very nice!

    Finally got the final nest x28. The objectives were surprisingly difficult nearing the final nests. I can't wait for updates with more features, this game is just plain addicting.
     
  12. I knew this game reminded me of something!

    It must be nice to be so wonderful that you all can call me a spoiled brat and whiny twat while acting as if you're the ones in the right because I'd rather listen to news while I do some gaming and at least be doing something beyond purely wasting time. Such a bizarrely twisted sense of values when you'll take the time to slam people for pointing out the reality of what the overwhelming majority expect when it's your p.o.v. that's out of touch and condescending.

    Art or not, nobody gets to dictate the terms by which others absorb their art, and those who try may have their tiny handful of supporters who claim the other's are "doing it wrong", but the rest of the world will rightly ignore their elitist cries and do what they want anyhow.

    Pretty much everything you wrote there means nothing, it's random babble. Are you trying to excuse your childish behaviour by throwing around odd claims that my values are "bizzarely twisted" and elitist with absolutly no rhyme or reason whatsoever? The focus isn't on me, it's on a certain few people in this topic acting like antisocial idiots with all the social grace of a tropical disease. Bottom line: It's not your app. Get the hell over yourself, you can't control the world. Learn what it means to have a reasonable conversation and learn how to make requests politely and with a sense of decorum. If you don't want to be labeled a spoiled brat, stop acting like one.

    So any guesses as to how many copies its sold so far?

    It has over 4500 ratings, so the number has to be pretty damn high.

    But you get to dictate the terms by which someone creates their *own* art, and then call them ignorant or arrogant when you don't get what you want?!?

    However, all of this is moot, as I already re-posted the developers paragraph where he stated that you can listen to your own music, but it didn't work quite right, and that he plans on fixing it in an update.

    I really like Tiny Wings. It's my favorite new app. By the way, does anybody know what the highest level island is?

    Agreed. I've been holding off purchasing because of all the games that don't handle already-satisfied achievements properly when upgrading to Game Center, resulting in broken achievements that can never be earned. Nothing's more frustrating than a broken achievement, so I'd rather just wait it out.

    Any word on when the Game Center update is coming?

    Actually, it's not an iPod first and foremost. That may be the case for you, but you can't speak for tens of millions of users. For me, it's a portable gaming platform first, a productivity tool second, a phone third, a music-making tool fourth, and an iPod fifth. Even so, I don't complain that I can't play play Tiny Birds while I'm mixing a track. Everyone's list is going to be different.

    Your whole argument is pointless anyway, because the dev didn't intentionally keep anyone from their precious Britney Spears album, it was an oversight. Get over it.
