This game is amazing. I showed it to a friend at school who thought it was dumb. 10 minutes later, he wouldn't give my iPod back!
As a UI suggestion for how to handle this, maybe put a toggle switch somewhere in the HUD that will activate or deactivate the glowing nail. Only check for collision with the nail when the nail is active.
While Frand is here . . . 1. Congratulations on a great game! I find myself thinking about this quite a bit after putting down my ipod. I look at a lamp - ooh, that crevice will be hard to wrap through (okay, not quite that extreme). Also congats on being in the top 100 and number 30 something of the games - It definitely deserves it. 2. I have gotten over the non-stickeness part - I don't know what I was thinking, it seems perfect now! 3. About the bug - Its not just that the paint doesn't just spread evenly, there are entire strips of wood left upainted. Please see post 154 for the images. I had it again today - quite frustrating! 4. About the rope going off screen, I still think it would be nice for zoom. HOWEVER, I am used to using the rotate more, and I understand completely if you don't want to implement the zoom. 5. Again, AMAZING game!! It has quickly become one of my favorites for the iphone/ipod touch.
Whilst were passing compliments, Great job on the music too! I downloaded my free soundtrack today. So now I can listen to Zen Bound when I'm not playing Zen Bound! Thanks for the freebie!
Thanks for the feedback About #3, if you notice it in only particular levels consistently, just PM me the level names. I'll see if we can address that in an update.
Kinda lazy so i don't know if this was said earlier, if it was, you can virtually smack me in the face But could you include some sort of "display" option, where you can display the object you just wrapped? So you could put it as a background on your phone or something? Some look sloppy when finished, but some actually look quite nice, and it would be cool to have a display area where you can save and see your completed objects. Excellent job on this once again, thisll stay on my phone for a long time.
Wow, this game is climbing the charts. #54 in the States in the Top 100 with a 5 star average...Still. Congrats to Frand on making such a great game and hopefully this will hit the Top 10/ Top 5 in no time!
God this is challenging but so addictive. Just got to the coiled snake, I'm trying to pace myself hahaa I'm glad there's going to be another 25 levels
