Flashout 3D - (by Jujubee)[Universal]

[Rudi]

Now i bought The Game and I regret it. The touch controls are not playable. Just left/right arrows or touching left,right on the screen. That's what I want.
Virtual Joysticks, swiping around does never really work. After playing some minutes, the finger starts to sweat and then it's impossible to play.
Why is it so difficult for devs to understand that? This is a touch or turn device, virtual sticks never really work.

Apart from that, the music is great, the graphics are great but it runs a bit to jerky on my ipad3. And yes, it is a wipeout clone. No problem, when Sony don't gives us the real one. We've got so many Mario, Breakout, Pacman clones here. So what is the problem?

I dont find the joystick too bad but yeah ideally i would love a simple left/right button either side of the screen.

But i'm sure the devs will listen and might do something in a future update. I wouldnt go OTT and delete it instantly or regret the purchase.

I actually prefer the joysticks... I dunno how cluttered the bottom or mid-center of the screen would get with all the buttons involved if they did add a left/right edge scheme... With racers I generally prefer tilt on the smaller iPod, and a wheel/slider/joystick on the bigger iPad though... I'm not a Beans Quest type control scheme racer fan at all...

But in all fairness... And because I was told numerous times by numerous people (including the devs - yes, multiple forums members and multiple developers) in another thread to quit my bitching and stop whining, play the game as is and STFU because my opinion about controls doesn't matter - and that I don't know what I'm talking about even though it's MY damn opinion....

I FULLY SUPPORT YOUR DESIRE FOR WHATEVER CONTROL SCHEME YOU ARE MOST COMFORTABLE WITH. Good news is, Jujubee's a great Dev team, and actually listen to customers instead of blowing them off telling them they don't know what they're talking about - so chances are, we might just find out how that scheme would play out. I'd personally be interested in seeing if they could pull it off, considering all the buttons that are involved. =o)

It isn't a hundred percent smooth but not sure its framerate or something else.

Good

Career and upgrades
Track design
Vehicle designs
Wipeout like

Bad

Disappearing kills behind 2d sprite explosion
Over lit areas on tracks
A bit washy, needs deeper contrast
Vehicles swapping through pillars in garage (just a quality issue)
Badly clipped and compressed font used in help
Lack of weight and impacts on vehicles
No vehicle shadows (even just texture)

A decent Wipeout like racer, but some things need a bit more attention and polish. Not quite what I expected.

Thanks for sharing that. Looks amazing (and 60 FPS.)
Holding off on this one and compare the two once it comes out!

I tried the game and deleted right away. It felt very boring to me and the music wasn't music at all, just a couple of techno notes. I've played wipeout and loved it but this game is lightyears behind wipeout

It was soooo convenient for games like cod zombies (waw).

Anyways, I'm downloading this game the second it comes out

Sure, I will drop the info when the multiplayer will come. As for bluetooth - if the game gets popular, everything is possible.

Sure thing, we will be developing the game and working on it in the forthcoming months so you can expect many changes and new features!

We did a lot of tests and for some testers the game was too hard. Anyway the first two cups are really easy, so you can get used to the controls and how the game works, but from the third cup the game gets harder and harder, with the highest difficulty in the "Velocity Cup" (last one obviously).

Granted theres the odd 'gripe' about no smoke after the missiles, the machine gun isnt great but like the other poster said its $1.99, its brilliant for that price and its version 1. Give the devs a bit of time to look at constructive feedback and make any amends.

I'm very very thankful its out, remember seeing this ages ago on the upcoming thread and thinking it looked amazing. I've got my own 'wipeout' game now on my ipod i can take anywhere with me, for that i'm very grateful.

Thanks for this and great you're enjoying the game! As mentioned before we will surely be still polishing the game and as you remarked it is only the version 1.0, so a lot of stuff is coming!

On a related note, Repulze looks dandy awesome! Looking at that, I can immediately see the speed, better graphics and of course smoother gameplay (60 fps!?!) and banking! Hell yeah

Yeah, left and right screen controls would suit this game better for touch fans. Like the touch controls you get with Asphalt 6 and 7.

Yup, agree, looks great, but I don't see any other ships on the racingtracks, so I believe it is some kind of timetrial. If you put other vehicles on the track it requires a lot more processing power (physics) and of course this affects graphics.
