"The game idea is pretty strong and the execution is also very well done. It can be very tough at times, but if you are the kind of guy who loves to take on challenges, give Tangled a shot." 9 / 10 TheAppleGoogle 5/5 "Awesome - Congrats on a simple yet really fun game!" nobre 5/5 "One puzzling and challenging game - The replayability of this game is outstanding!. Not only do you have 20 puzzles that are enough to keep you puzzling away for hours, but it also generates leveled puzzles randomly. the interface is easy to understand, yet the game is difficult to master. Excellent."

But where is the sound? I guess you are an indie developer and had a lot on your mind while developing the game... I understand coz I am one too... just take a day or two and put in some sounds... competition is stiff and you need to give your game everything you can.... Rudy Well-Known Member Mar 30, 2009 363 0 0 Canada #5 Rudy, Sep 6, 2011 The difficulty curve is something that was pretty hard to do, on another forum some guy complained the 3rd level was too hard ( really??? ) As for the sound, Tangled 2 has some background music. This version is about 2.5 years old but I'be tried to keep it as updated as possible (all the new puzzles from Tangled 2 got back ported to this one) So far Tangled and Tangled 2 are the only 2 games I have on the AppStore and I have a 3rd game (not a puzzle game this time) coming in the next month or so (getting the graphics done and music). I kinda wish I had more time for iPhone programming, but I'm not making enough to quit my dayjob lol BlindingLights Well-Known Member Aug 7, 2011 167 0 0 #6 BlindingLights, Sep 6, 2011 I was half expecting a game based on the Disney film Rudy Well-Known Member Mar 30, 2009 363 0 0 Canada #7 Rudy, Sep 6, 2011 To be fair my game was out almost a full year before Disney announced their movie (and even more before they actually released it) caanerud Well-Known Member Mar 28, 2011 998 0 0 #8 caanerud, Sep 6, 2011 Hmmm. Did you trademark the name for your game? Or could Disney try to have you change the name if they wanted to? Just curious how something like that works. Rudy Well-Known Member Mar 30, 2009 363 0 0 Canada #9 Rudy, Sep 6, 2011 I looked into it a bit when they first announced it, but since I didn't pay to trademark my name there's nothing I can really do. ArtNJ Well-Known Member Jul 13, 2009 3,212 29 48 New Jersey #10 ArtNJ, Sep 6, 2011 There are several puzzle games with a similar mechanic like this that I have tried, including I am pretty sure, this one. My problems with these games seem to be common to all of them: (1) I never really completely figure out the mechanics, and when it gets harder I get really frustrated; and (2) for some reason all of these games seem to have a problem with the controls when it comes to the corners. I see the potential for this type of puzzle game, and I wouldnt discourage anyone from trying the game at free. Its an interesting concept, and it almost worked for me -- close enough that I tried several similar games. Rudy Well-Known Member Mar 30, 2009 363 0 0 Canada #11 Rudy, Sep 7, 2011 What exactly is the problem you're having with the corners? I made it so you can't lose the balls off screen Rudy Well-Known Member Mar 30, 2009 363 0 0 Canada #12 Rudy, Sep 7, 2011 Sale is still on, grab it before it goes back to $0.99! Rudy Well-Known Member Mar 30, 2009 363 0 0 Canada #13 Rudy, Sep 8, 2011 Due to the overwhelming demand for Tangled (it's currently the 24th most downloaded free app) I decided to extend the sale! Get it while it's still free!! jayanthgurijala Well-Known Member Apr 30, 2011 61 0 0 http://exoticengineer.blogspot.com #14 jayanthgurijala, Sep 10, 2011 Nope... not that hard... am in level 11 after say 30 mins of gameplay... I see there are 3 version of tangled out there... are visuals the only difference? why not make it a single game and let the user choose the visuals? That way it would be more easy for customers to buy ur game else you could lose customers who change their mind while thinking which one to buy.... Same here me too... an indie developer not with sufficient income... luckily my day job is also making iphone apps Rudy Well-Known Member Mar 30, 2009 363 0 0 Canada #15 Rudy, Sep 10, 2011 I'm working on 3 new puzzle packs (an Easy, Medium and a Hard), I'm working hard on an update right now Tangled 1 is the original, then a year or so after its release Tangled 2 came out with new graphics, new game mode and music. Tangled 2 Doodle was a small experiment. Over the past year I've been working on bringing the new features from Tangled 2 over to Tangled 1 (things like the puzzle pack #1 is basically all the extra puzzles from Tangled 2) Rudy Well-Known Member Mar 30, 2009 363 0 0 Canada #16 Rudy, Sep 13, 2011 An update has been released, it added 3 puzzle packs and fixed a bug that happened on older devices (and sometimes newer but it was harder to replicate) Rudy Well-Known Member Mar 30, 2009 363 0 0 Canada #17 Rudy, Sep 23, 2011 New update! Get it while it's still free!! It's going back to paid on the next major update - Bug fix - Small tutorial to explain the game - In App Purchase process improved - End screens now shows the number of moves made to complete the puzzle - Major update coming soon!
