    Hey everyone, I’m almost finished with my first game “Trick Shot” and I wanted to put a call out to any iOS users interested in some beta testing. By day I’m an artist at @ustwogames but for the last few months this has been my evening project and I think its ready for some battle testing. The game is a really minimal physics puzzler, you just have to throw the ball into a box, should be simple right?

    I think I’ll be ready to send out a test flight build near the end of the week so anyone who’s interested PM me your itunes email address and I send you an invite when its ready.

    If you’re interested you can also follow development @jonathan_topf

    Thanks!

    EDIT:
    Since the front page post I've had a really overwhelming response, I'm going to stop taking requests for this beta to save some for the next one if I do it but thanks to everyone who replied I really appreciate it!

    EDIT:
    I have a new trailer!

    Hope I can pay for this once it's released! Looks like a boyhood fantasy of making up trick shots... come true. I don't play many puzzle games, but this looks like one I'll enjoy.

    Looks great! Keep us posted on progress.

    This seems like it might benefit from alternate goals in the levels (e.g. Collecting stars)

    The graphics look really clean, without details missing from it.
    Hoping to get to test the mechanics! :)

    It may have crossed my mind, saosijs... ;). Yet, Endless Runners do longest path, Puzzlers do shortest path!

    This game is absolutely amazing. It's minimalistic gameplay idea (don't get me wrong the gameplay is in no way simple, but the idea of the gameplay is) breathtaking graphics and addictive nature makes it one of the best games on my iPhone. The game is ideal in either short bursts or in depth long game times, which makes it my to-go commute game.
    The game itself is simple and unique, you fling a ball (only in a certain designated area) by deciding its trajectory and power, in an attempt to fling it directly into a box-possibly without touching the box, although it it touches the box and still goes in you get half a point and still pass the level. So far I have played 20 something levels and am ADORING the game.
    As of now there are NO ADDS whatsoever and no IAP, it is just pure intellectual, physics BEAUTIFUL game
    Thank You Dev for letting me Beta Test this and wish you luck for the game's bright future.
