Wanna win a 25 $ gift card? Boxtrip second TestFlight is on the way! For every five active testers from this forum we’re gonna raffle a 25 $ Amazon or iTunes card! (first 30 testers). Just join our upcoming TestFlight and help us with your feedback! You can mail us at [email protected] Aprox. dates: we will be releasing new TestFlight next week. So the contest will be in late October. Terms: - Becoming an active tester doesn’t mean playing lots of hours per day (unless you really love our game, that would be great! ). But it’s more tan just downloading the App and open it once. We want you to complete at least the first 20 missions over 2-3 weeks. And we need you to write an honest feedback review (which doesn’t have to be very long, can abe a paragraph). It won’t take you too much time! - Only the first 30 active testers will take part in the raffle. However, we might consider to increase the number. - If we have at least 3 testers, we will raffle one gift card among them. - We thinking it's more than obvious in this forum, but players shouldn't hack or manipulate Boxtrip data in order to take advantage in a non legit way over other participants. Agaporni Games reserves the right to change the terms and conditions of this offer at any time without prior notice. UPDATE: We're also giving away a 25 $ gift card to the first player able to reach the flipped zone! Send us a video or screenshot!
Thank you for your pattiente. We're sending the TestFlight build today so if everything is ok you'll receive your betas next week. Read the main post for another juicy new.
Codes have been sent! 10 testers at the moment, so if all of you complete the first twenty missions there will be a couple of gift cards.
Can't believe finally completed the Red Stage. That's the best stage I think in this game since you have to beat your brain. Well made! LOL Anyway, can I post my feedback now or should I just wait until late October when the contest starts? I've completed the first 20 mission.
Hi Chain94, congrats! The red area is an inflection point for sure, it me took a lot of time to complete it for the first time (and we didn't have a checkpoint, that's a new feature). You can send us your first impressions and the pictures now, if you have completed the first twenty missions you'll participate in the raffle for sure, you don't have to keep playing if you don't want to, that's fair . But please, if you keep playing in the upcoming days, don't forget to send us an updated feedback (about unlocked skills, areas, whatever feature), we'll really appreciate it. Cheers!
Haha, that's crazy. I even need to upgrade to Hover and Shield to be able to pass that stage. Okay, first of all, I am using iPhone 5s. There are two issues I faced. I am not sure whether it is due to my device or not. You know 5s is quite an old now. First One is double taps sometimes doesn't work. I tried to move from one side to other side by double tapping twice, however it usually dashed once to the middle, and started sliding, instead of dashing again. Secondly, sometimes the box gets stuck sliding to the left. It won't move even though I tap and hold on the right. But it happened only twice anyway. Now, I got two suggestions. First is sometimes I play games with one hand (the benefit of small device ). It might be nice if I can tap and hold and move around the box following my finger. Of course it won't be useful for bigger device. Second is to be able to keep rewards and continue with next mission after completing that particular mission instead of after game over. I used to play Subway Surfers and sometimes I played to complete missions as much as I can in one run. It made me feel excited to get so many rewards at one time. Yeah sure, I'll keep playing it, I am so excited to pass the flipped zone. Anyway, what pictures do you want me to send? The 20 missions completed?
Great job chain94, I couldnt even get to the flipped level without my hover upgraded. Im using a iPad Pro 9.7 and Im also having trouble with the double taps not working. Other than that I have enjoyed the game. The gem doubler should be iAP because by the time you save up enough gems to purchase it you wont need the doubler. The missions are nice also; it makes you wa t to keep playing. Great game.
Great job too toomuchsoup! Keep playing! I have passed to black and white stage, very very challenging! Is it the last stage since it incorporates all previous stage? One thing, about the upside down stage, I think people can outsmart this stage by using orientation Lock and turning the phone upside down. (Like me) Another issue is when I respawned at black stage, the track was empty and I fell directly after hover was finished, However I cannot confirm this since it was only once that I was able to go to black stage without dying. The Jetpack also is not as I expect. I thought the immunity time would be like 10 or something secs, but it is just like 1-3 secs. It is 80,000 gems and it is useless for me. Might as well to purchase Upgrades instead of Jetpack.
Thank you for the feedback, Chain94 and Toomuchsoup! We think all your notes are great, Ill try to address the more important issues: -Double tap issues. Right now, if you try to dash twice its gonna fail because the dash has a little cooldown. It is deliberated and weve gotten used to it but we might consider to change it if many people think its a problem. Beside that, if youre experimenting another issues, let us know (like not dashing in the first double tap). - No side movement issue till you restart the app. Were aware of this problem. In the office it only happens in my device (which is not a good one) from time to time so we suspect its performance related. We still cannot replicate it (it happens in a random way) so were working on it. -White stage. Wow, impressive chain94! Yes, thats the last stage at the moment. Well try to implement a couple of new areas before the white one but probably on a post-launch update. Were conscious that weve more obstacles than traditional endless runners. However, Im a little bit worried that maybe the game is not challenging enough after your impressive record. After reaching that stage, would you keep playing to buy the skin collection (well implement a lot more)? - Checkpoints. Thats a new feature. Considering you will have to watch an ad to respawn, would you use it? - Jetpack. Thats interesting because this is a hard-to-balance item. We want it to be worthy of 80k but not completely OP (thats why you cannot dash when using it). With the current fuel you can avoid 2- 3 obstacles and you can refill it by pulling gems (megagem refills a lot!). We brainstormed another ideas, like using the gems youd collected as fuel. Well try to check it in order to see another possibilities. - Gem doubler as IAP. That might be a chance, as in Altos Adventure and another endless runners. Right now, we want to reward the players who refuse to use the jump skill by giving him more gems. - Power-ups. Maybe the shield and specially hover are a bit OP right now. Would you pay for a small gem fee in order to activate them for a limited number of runs? - Mission flow. We´ll try to introduce more multitarget missions so you can have the chance to complete several targets in one run. I think its the easier way to achieve what you asked for without changing the missions structure right now. By the way, do you think the mission flow its too easy, hard or it adapts to the learning curve? Thanks for your support, cheers!
Pretty cool game. Definately has that "one more go" appeal to it. I like the upgrades & missions, makes for a compelling experience. As chain24 said, double tap is not working. Also reached the flipped zone which is damn tough. Overall I'm not crazy about the colour & graphic style but do like the drifting movement & upgrade mechanics. Great effort guys!! Looking forward to further updates.
- Double tap. I'd prefer to not have cooldown period. Since it is most useful during the flipped stage. I also would like suggest to remove the "tap" and "2x tap" which appears on first time opening the game. Once is enough I guess. Or at least remove that if jetpack is equipped. At first, I thought it is a bug because I could not double tap, but then I realised that on Jetpack mode, dash is not allowed. Check the attachment, I played many rounds with that "2x tap" around. It was quite distracting. - White stage. Yes! Somehow after reaching that stage, the skin changes to white skin (as attached). I love it. But unfortunately after passing the first stage, it came back to original skin. - Checkpoints. Of course I would. Why not? I don't mind with ads as long as they don't disturb the gameplay. - Jetpack. Woaa, I didn't realise that. But yeah, right now I am used to it. Used it to avoid unavoidable obstacles. Good thing it is refillable. - Gem doubler as IAP. I leave that up to you. - Power ups. Of course, without them, I won't be able to reach white stage. But I'd prefer to purchase them as how it is in the game now. Maybe the power ups can be upgraded for one run for a small gem fee (like for example, 10 shields, instead of total shields player has). - Mission Flow. It adapts to learning curve. At first, it looks so hard. But as you play, you will know that it is easy. Just need patience. - Bonus stage. Maybe there should be bonus stage with no obstacles at all with lots of megagems. Doesn't need to always appear on every run. - Megagems. SO far I only see yellow megagems. Maybe you can add more megagems like red and blue megagems. - No track after respawn at white stage. I can confirm it now (as attached).
Good catches, chain, and thanks DJfelix for the feedback! Ww will fix the current bugs and try to see which ideas can we implement at this moment (deadline is really close ) When I talked about skins, I meant the new boxes you can buy. Have you noticed that if you press your cube you open the skin shop? Maybe it's confusing, we'll try to clarify it. Have a nice weekend guys, cheers!
