Hi Sink_or_svim Good to hear from you again We're calling it an "endless jumper" so you might be able to guess the answer to your question. It's a mix-up of Tiny Wings and platform games like Super Mario. So basically you control when the main character (Brian's his name) makes himself heavy to bounce higher on clouds. Cheers Anders

PAJ7PJ3PJTJA thanks This is a really nice game. Colorful graphics, simple one-tap controls, missions, full gc-support, 20 rare butterflies to collect, lots of power-ups - all upgradable in the shop. The only negtive thing I can see is the second currency (Gems) to save you after you die. It's similar to Temple Run, you can get them during gameplay or watch a video to get 4 gems. Looks like you can revive as much as you want or as long as you have enough gems. I'm not a fan of this.
JP64YRFAMKE7 taken. Thanks! Btw loving the game. Top notch graphics and gameplay. Not only one level to play but 4. Also tons of customizations for the main character, whale and home. And for anyone complaining about the rare gems. Besides iap you can also upgrade youtr stats so that instead of 3 per day you can get up to 8. Btw does an iap disable the ad? Please tell me it does because the ad that pops up after every play is the only thing I can see wrong w this great game.
Grabbed RTHK634WPXXJ thank you ! Very cute character with great controls and the pixels on your side, meaning, you don't have to be to precise on the clouds. Like that. I'm not quiet sure what's the rocket for, because we play for points and not (yet?) for distance. If we could steer the rocket and grab some points, well that would be another story. Really like this relaxing game. Good luck folks !
Hmmmm... I expected more. Seems to be a standard runner. Not paticularly bad, but nothing new either. You can upgrade the power-ups and can buy clothes for the dude and his whale, as well as houses. I'd prefer upgrades that influence gameplay. The power-ups are also standard stuff: rocket that boosts you forward, a bird that catches you, a magnet and a 2x-multiplier. I would really love to see something new in the runner genre. Also too many annoying full screen ads. Graphics are cute thou. I'll give it another try tomorrow, but I think I'll go back to Jetpack Joyride soon (Lvl 195 btw ) Thanks anyway for the Code.
I was too focused on the b-flies multplier so i overlooked the rockets points we get, oops. Now i'm stucked on mission six 'equip your whale with armor'... ahmm...what do i do again to get that ? Hard-mode is a blast with the 'Badland' style, just gorgeous looking. Already mentioned is buying the leaderboard with gems. I don't and never will like that. One revival is ok but more...dam' business. A reason to see a leaderboard 'one life' for the skilled people. And the most important thing, at least to me, we need an instant replay button, but it might be against the business model, i know. Same queston here, if i buy the doubler or some, will these ads go away ? All in all it isn't something new at all, but it gives me the good mood feeling as Tiny Birds does, and this is never wrong.
Update - Thanks for grabbing codes! Hi guys Thanks for the snappy replies, it is - as always - very much appreciated! A special thanks goes out to Artvarg, sink_or_swim, Pham, extreme472000, Qwertz555, Shan82 & Shyft for grabbing codes! I'll look at your feedback asap and post replies when I've got 'em! Thanks for the kind words though! Cheers Anders
I've managed to have a bit of a play with this and must say I'm rather enjoying it. The artwork is fantastic - very cute and colourful. The gameplay is simple but fun and has that 'just one more go' feel. Great selection of power ups, upgrades and achievements that should keep the average gamer going for a very long while. I seem to be getting a good amount of butterflies and gems as to make me believe that the IAP packs will not be needed although with the butterfly doubler at such a cheap price of 69p it would be rude not to. Unfortunately I'd have to agree with sink_or_swim with regards to the gem revives - this pretty much makes the leaderboards null and void. Also, what is the 'kiip' reward (sorry, did not make a note of it) where you seem to win a real world discount/bonus? I didn't select onto it so did not see anymore details. Does this direct you to some sort of shop to buy physical products? Does this work in all countries?
Regarding gems and leaderboards Hi sink_or_swim, Qwertz555 and Back2Funk Thanks for your feedback regarding the gem/save me system vs. our leaderboard. You're all quite right in that having this system effectively makes the world wide leaderboard less attractive. We've actually considered this quite a bit and found, through testing, that most people primarily focus on competing with their friends and less so with the worldwide scores. Meaning that highscores should be more comparable. On the other hand this doesn't really solve the problem, it just makes it a bit less obvious Our solution (as we see it right now, you're welcome to comment on it) would therefore be: Two leaderboards instead of one. If you use "save me" you are playing on the "save me"-leaderboard and if you didn't...well then you're playing on the "0-gems-leaderboard". How does that sound? We've already planned on making unique leaderboards for each location (there are 4), so we'll probably do this in the same update. Unfortunately we can't make this change before launch (which is planned for august 8th), so it'll have to wait for the first update. But thanks for pointing it out, it's on the top of our list now! Cheers Anders
That sounds like a perfect solution. The only problem with it not going in from the start is what you do with the current leaderboard. If you port it to the 'save me' there may be some true high scores made without gems. But, the other way round and it won't be a true '0 gems' leaderboard. Tricky one.
