Sock Slider iPhone Game (FREE)

[keepnix]

Hey all,

I'm new to all this (i.e. Macs, iPhones and touchArcade) so please let me know if I'm posting in the right place or not. My first attempt at an iPhone game just got approved by Apple/AppStore (on Halloween ) and I'm looking for some folks to test it out:

Why is your game not available to first-gen iTouch users?

Thanks Devilishly Good for posting the game description and screen shots that is great. And, wow, that was quick. How did you do that so quick?

One thing I really don't like about the app is the advertisement right below the PLAY AGAIN? YES OR NO. Do I really have to view this every time and be careful not to touch the link?

@Ipodfan15 Good question. I didn't realize it wasn't targeted at 1st gen iPod Touch. I'll take a look at how to configure it for 1st gen iPod Touch. Would you be up for testing and Ad Hoc build on your 1st gen ipod touch? If so, I'd need your UDID here some info on how to get it:

You can just PM it to me. Once I have that I can make a special build for you and you'll be able to try it out on your 1st gen iPod Touch.

Looks cool. I think my six year old will love this one too! Thanks Keepnix!

@freedog Thanks for the feedback about the ads. I tried to keep ads off pretty much the entire game since I wanted to avoid blocking out any of the usable screen real estate during game play. In contrast, a lot of games on the iPhone seem to either block out the top or bottom through out the entire game which effectively reduces one's usable screen size. I figured the "game over" screen was pretty out-of-the-way.

wow, I am terrible at this game...my record is 3 in a row on easy...it just seems so inconsistent on sliding, sometimes I barely move and others, the boy goes flying off the screen

I got a bug report and I'm trying to narrow down in what situations this "half circle bug" occurs. Has anyone else seen this problem?



If so please let me know what device you have (i.e. iPod Touch 2nd Gen? iPhone 3GS? and amount of memory). And when does this happen? does this always happen? Any help tracking this down would be appreciated, thanks.
