Wow!! This update is stellar! The graphics update along with the gameplay balancing make this a brand new game for me. But wow! Talk about being pretty to look at! Will post my 5 star review.

Great job!

P.S. I just posted my 5 star review on iTunes.

Hi!

I'm really happy, as I'm sure is the rest of the team, to see this warm reception.
Ever since we've made the Mac version of Sailboat Championship, we felt the original iOS version deserved some more love. Now both hardware and software performance made it possible. So, there you go! You can play Sailboat Championship like we, and maybe some of you, always wanted it

Don't hesitate to leave any feedback on the new balance of the game. We did our best to make it more appealing, so we're now at a point when it's really important for us to know the outcome. There's nothing more valuable than your feedback on the matter!

Best regards,
Peter,
Infinite Dreams.

Well, I've played some of the early levels that I previously had trouble with, and the controls feel a lot better and they're a bit more forgiving. I find it easier to stay on course, and I was easily able to best some of my "silver medal" times...not enough for gold, but I'm getting MUCH closer (like within a second).

Looking forward to playing some more tonight!

Hi Peter and Artur


I bought this game a few years back when it released.

I struggled for a long time with it. No matter how much I played it, I couldn't improve.

After playing the new version, I am actually able to have fun with it. I am actually unlocking new levels.

Great job. It's extremely beautiful and just challenging enough, but not impossible.
(I just wish it still had the jet ski and airplane levels, as I may have actually unlocked them THIS time)

That was our goal and we are happy to hear that game is much more better now. Especially in balance / difficulty section. Unfortunately Airplane level was removed to achieve better graphics performance on all devices.

Damn i'm impressed ! The video looks great

I love racing games and this ones a 'bit' different considering its boats and also it looks like you have to get the wind direction right. Looks very impressive and not a huge filesize either

Shall be buying this shortly, going to be nice having a different racing game like this
