AnarKitty Well-Known Member Oct 10, 2010 3,654 0 0 Minneapolis, USA #10 AnarKitty, Jul 24, 2012 Grabbed this one earlier when it went free, and enjoying it. ClawhammerMark Member Feb 11, 2012 19 0 0 Manchester, UK http://clawhammer-games.com #11 ClawhammerMark, Jul 25, 2012 Glad a lot of people are enjoying it! I decided to extend the free period for another 24 hours. Before the 'sale' there was about 700 people on the leaderboards, now there is around 17,000 So if you still haven't had chance to grab it yet, you have a bit longer before it returns to $0.99 Cheers!

Also, love the vector graphics, and all of the game modes. Thanks so much for letting us have it, and I will be sure to give this a great 5 star review on itunes. Edit: my review, 5 stars One of the best old school games out there! And the vector graphics look great on my new ipad. It is fun to play, and there are so many game modes, this is a must buy! ninjackid Well-Known Member May 27, 2010 9,380 2 38 #14 ninjackid, Jul 25, 2012 Sweet! Was afraid I missed out on this one! ClawhammerMark Member Feb 11, 2012 19 0 0 Manchester, UK http://clawhammer-games.com #15 ClawhammerMark, Jul 25, 2012 Thanks, really glad you're enjoying it I'm considering leaving it free for a while longer, yesterday it got 35k downloads which is amazing, unfortunately Apple seem to have screwed up the app store rankings, so any apps uploaded or changed on the 24th 25th aren't being ranked - so HS would have made it to around the top 50 in the US if this hadn't been broken Bit of a shame as it would have been a lot of exposure, let's see if they fix it...

This is a terriffic game, but when I want to play this style of game, odds are I'll play Hard Lines. ClawhammerMark Member Feb 11, 2012 19 0 0 Manchester, UK http://clawhammer-games.com #18 ClawhammerMark, Jul 25, 2012 Fair enough - not everyone likes tilt controls, but the game was designed and built around tilt at it's core. Tacking on some screen controls would be nasty and be even more difficult to control/see the screen; plus there's no nice way of doing it. I'm afraid it's not going to be changed for this game. Sorry that you didn't enjoy it that much, but thanks for giving it a go chess Well-Known Member Jun 17, 2011 436 0 0 #19 chess, Jul 25, 2012 I did enjoy it, and I'm keeping it on my phone for now...hope you'll take it as a constructive suggestion. ClawhammerMark Member Feb 11, 2012 19 0 0 Manchester, UK http://clawhammer-games.com #20 ClawhammerMark, Jul 25, 2012 Thanks, glad you did enjoy it. I do understand some people don't like tilt controls for various reasons, I just have many of my own reasons why I chose to go purely with tilt. I always like to hear feedback/criticisms and suggestions, but I've moved on from this project now and don't have the time available to make drastic changes to it unfortunately. Day job and my main game project are taking up all of my time (plus that "real life" thing ) (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
