    Hi everyone.

    I'm currently looking for testers for my new one-touch twitch/puzzle platformer (thread in upcoming games - http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=195389)

    It's a universal app, and should run on any device from iPhone 3GS and newer, running iOS 5.0 and up.

    I would appreciate it if anyone can spare the time to help test it out. Thanks a lot.

    Thank you everyone.

    I'm really interested now in getting people who have an iPad 1 or iPhone 3GS. If you own either of these I would really appreciate your help.

    Edit: I have accepted a lot of people, so check your emails :)

    Ok, i completed level 1 till 9..
    The game almost got me hooked...

    Pros And Suggestions Of My Point.....

    Pros:-
    Easy To Play.
    Easy Controls.
    Sweet And Simple Graphics.
    Immersive Levels, Makes My Brain A Run For Time, LOL.
    They are getting difficult but i want smoother touch response.

    Cons Or Suggestions:-

    Sometimes, it doesnt jump when i touch, i hope you can fix that.

    (Device is not a problem)..

    And i have mastered 7 levels out of nine, and miss by 0.3 seconds in level 2, and not even close on level 6, can you show how to master those level timings..

    Overall, the game is great, will be on my watchlist, and when is the official release and will it be free..

    Thanks

  14. Hi.

    There shouldn't be any problems with touch response, as it is just using Apple's standard touch events. However, the game won't let you jump unless your box is in contact with the ground (to prevent jumping in mid-air). If you are trying to make a quick landing and then jump again straight away, you might touch the screen a split second before the box comes into contact with the ground. This then feels like it's not recognising your touch. So some of the levels require quick reflexes and precise timing for the jumps.

    I'll get back to you about the release date, but I'm hoping for the end of July/start of August. It will launch at $0.99 AUD (or equivalent) .

    If you are still having trouble beating the times, send me an email or PM and I can give you a diagram or something ;)

    Oh.ok..
    I get that now, i was just continuously pressing the screen, sometimes it would go sometimes it wouldn't, now i will try to break times again..:D
    And it would be great for level 2 and 6 , coz i miss by a split second.

  18. Living Legend: You're in. Check your email.

    And with that, the beta is now closed for applications. Thanks to all testing. Please email feedback when you can.

    Darklord1011: Thanks for the thoughts. Are you talking about level 2 and 6 of stage 1? I will email you about them. Did you know there are 5 stages?

    Finished first stage, I really like it. It sort of reminds me of old school platformers, but faster paced.

    Seems a little shallow though, presumably once you master a level there's only a finite amount of time you can take off your own record?

    I'm not sure about your achievements as well, why have one for mastering each stage, and one for mastering all stages? With the first five it just seems a little redundant...
