    I didn't get a build yet, guess I didn't make the cut. Game on for the both of use, Pocketnova!
    If nothing else you can respond to the Test Flight e-mail and that will notify the developer of your feedback. The developer might respond with better direction, I know he's active on the forums. Some of the more interesting betas are those with subgroups here encouraging more interactive discussion.

    Well that sucks that you didn't make the cut... You have a fantastic beta testing history! Maybe you'll be added later on? Anyway, that's a good idea! I always forget about the feedback part.

    Pocketnova - can you reply to the test flight email? That should be the best way. If not you can PM me or iEvilgames!

    I do like the idea of a sub group and opening it up for discussion, i'll chat with the guys in the morning to get their feedback.

    Thanks for testing :)

    I just PM'd you with the link. You should be able to try it! If there is anyone else who hasn't got a build yet but signed up to our Testflight let us know! I think we have everyone now but just in case!
    Thanks for the great feedback already guys!

    GooHoo Playtesting discussion

    This one is for all the playtesters, we have been getting great feedback on the project so thanks for that!

    We have had a couple of PM requests from playtesters to have somewhere they can compare notes about the game. We were thinking 2 options. Either a closed facebook group or keep the conversation going on this thread. I think it would be easier to bring up some thoughts here, we are happy to discuss things openly with everyone, and if you don't have an FB account then the other option is a problem!

    Anyway be great to hera your thoughts and we can come to a decision!

    Thanks again!

    You can create an Invite Only Private Social Group on Touch Arcade; I would discourage public beta discussion because it might tend to highlight flaws or feedback may be critical in nature. Facebook might work too but agggh... it's Facebook.

    I'm not sure if this link to create a Social Group will work but you can access this feature by clicking your user name in upper left.

    ^This^ + some unimaginably high number.

    I notice a tendency among less experienced testers to dump WAY too much info in the thread, and stuff that should not be public knowledge before launch... it's called Beta for a reason...;):D

    I'm down for whatever. I've even had a bunch of testers in recent months just exchange PMs...

    I will beta test.

    I have not been on toucharcade for a few years since the jailbreak section shutdown but have beta tested things before.
    I will most likely find something as minor like graphic cutoff or possibly as major as forces pushing objects through each other.

    Thanks for the feedback everyone, we'll assemble the last few bits of information and set up a private group on touch arcade as undeadcow suggested.

    Thanks again for your time guys, really appreciated!

    Apologies for not leaving any feedback yet! I am trying to play as much as I can, to get some good feedback/bug reports.

    That's not a problem Pocketnova, we are still evaluating what we have received so far and making changes. It's still early stages as far as were concerned, thanks :)

    I've sent out an invite to the play testers to join a social group for goohoo. Let me know if things don't work out :)
    Cheers!
