Where's Windows or web versions we are promised? All I can see on the linked page is the iOS one.

tacograveyard 2011-12-20 00:36

The form has Windows marked as a required field. There is no iOS radio button.

tacograveyard 2011-12-20 00:38

My apologies! Released the OS was editable when re-examining the form. Updated the entry to reflect that. I blame it on the 72 hours of brain melting.

tacograveyard 2011-12-20 00:38

Realized... need to stop thinking.

Doesn't run on the iPhone 3GS.

tacograveyard 2011-12-22 14:08

What version of iOS is installed? Has the app been installed through testflight? I only see one 3GS that signed up for testflight and I hadn't approved it yet, but am doing so now.

tacograveyard 2011-12-22 14:19

@VonZippenstein I believe your device has just been added to the provisioning file. (Or at least a 3GS who signed up around the time you left the comment)

vonzippenstein 2011-12-22 14:56

Yup, that did it. It works fine. Testflight was just giving me bad messages. Instead of saying "Hey you gotta wait until you're approved." it said "This device is incompatible."
Anyways, the game is great.
I really love the music and the art.
It is very tough. I couldn't seem to get passed the halfway point.
That paparazzi stun is a killer. Especially right after the lightpole jump.
Fits the theme perfect. Just want to be alone.
I like it.

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! It is definitely a bit hard. If it we had time to make more content we would definitely have slowed the ramp up in difficulty.

Testflight isn't the best distribution option, but I think it is the only option we had for iOS. Next time we will probably build a flash game.

It seems like a fun game, but I don't have an iOS device. I am not familiar with the development tools that you've used, is it possible to release a web based or PC version, so I could try it?

angrygeometry 2011-12-23 23:52

i'm afraid i don't have an iOS device :(

tacograveyard 2011-12-24 03:48

Hey guys, sadly no web or PC version, but I should have time to port it to OSX over the weekend. Stay tuned!

tacograveyard 2011-12-24 15:05

It ended up taking almost no time to port, just had to figure out what OSX libraries to link to. Enjoy!

pierrec 2011-12-25 08:32

I'm so frustrated! This game looks great!

summaky 2011-12-25 15:27

I don't own an iOS device; can't rate. Sorry.

tacograveyard 2011-12-25 16:48

If you have OS/X there is also a port now.

Lovely art. Fun choice of iOS for development. Shame there's no windows build for iOS judging, however.

stargoat 2012-01-03 15:39

Lovely screenshots, unfortunate that there's no windows build.

Hey, really cool! Thanks for supplying a OS X version, I played that one, worked great. When I died it kinda felt inevitable, because there wasn't really a way out, it seemed. But, other than that, top graphics, sound, overall package :)
