ArmorAlley200909081 Feedback

[BetaTesterOne]

Hi, Arthur

I tested out version 200909081 and it is working good, just like all
of the other versions. I like the changes you have made to the overall
game. I think the game has become even better than before.

I am kind of surprised that this is still in beta. I would have
figured that you would have finsihed and released the game by now.

Is there still a lot more that you are working on for this game? Are
you still not statisfied with it?

I havent been able to test all of the achievements, because I just
cant get them all, a lot of them are just way to hard for me to get.

The new icons in the game look better than before, but I think that
the helicopter icon for single player should just be a helicopter and
not have what ever that is under it.

and I have seen an armor alley clone in the appstore, but It is no
where near the quality of this game.

Is there anything in particular that you want tested for the
singleplayer game? and will we be able to test multiplayer? - Kevin

Me too.

The last thing big thing I'm waiting for is new sprite art. A sample is
attached. It's due end of this week.

Don't forget you can become invulnerable if you play with a player named
"wizard".

Noted.

The reviews are well with worth reading. And someone else is looking
for beta testers for yet another copy...

Nothing in particular. Here is a list of changes so far for my next
release (probably tomorrow):

* Updated achievement icons.
* Updated guide images for vertical orientation:
** Fixed highlighting and alignment of directions
** Add note about custom orientation
* Battle over fixes:
** If the player manages to continue the game by winning after game
over:
*** Don't immediately give a high score
*** Make this a supported code path.
* Fixed a wrong page guide page showing on fresh installs and from
quitting in guide.

I am going to defer multiplayer, till I see what sales are like. :(

Thanks for your comments!

I see why you want new sprite art.
The game needs to look as good as it can if it is to stand up to all
the critics out there.

Hmmm, I think I will try this, I knew about the achievements name, but
that was the only one.
I didnt look to see if there were more.

I looked at the reviews, and I hope that game doesnt turn people off
to yours.
When I look at that game, I am not even interested in getting the lite
version.
and another copy is being made! Well, it is a good game when its done
right.

Can they take the name Armor Alley or do you own that name?

So we might never get multiplayer in this game? That would be a shame.
I can see all of the possibilities that multiplayer could bring.
I think that It would be a selling point for the game and I also see
people paying more
for this game if it had multiplayer.
