Coming soon for iPad & iPhone $1.99 & 99c RBOG is an easy pick up and play but hard to master level based puzzle game with 30 increasingly difficult levels

We made RBOG in a few days (approx 38 hours for iPad and 8 hours to convert to iPhone) to test the "Game in a day type model".

I had a lot of fun playing and testing RBOG and i like it more than Bumps!

Load times have been cut with instant restart, no load times for level select, options and tutorial as there all on the same scene.



Out soon.

Darren.

    Good luck with the game Darren!

    It looks great, I will definitely be buying on launch (as I did with bumps)

    Question, how did you handle your curved platforms?

    Curved platforms for Bumps are just invisible rectangles hidden behind the platform sprites and you don't need too many to make it look like it's a smooth curve so start out with a few and add more if you need them.

    Game looks great another title that will have my kids stalking me for my iPhone that's great Darren lol. Hopefully if Chillingo offers there help this time you guys at UtopianGames will take there offer just my thoughts. Question. If someone came to you say like myself or anyone else with an idea and money would your team be willing to work with them on a project? I'm asking beacuse I have some money put away and tax time is also around the corner I was planning on taking a 2 month vacation and instead I might decide to invest the money on something I've been trying to make with GameSalad but am having issues since I'm not that good at it yet. I have not asked for help since I've been using the search like some have said lol but it's also time consuming and thats something I don't have a lot of since I work all day and come home to spend time with the family.

    Very cool! Good job. Now the hard part begins.

    Good luck, the game deserves to be at the top of the list.

    The game looks amazing, especially the zero load times! Look forward to playing it!

    A question for you though, in one of your Bumps levels, the Bumps "float" to the top of a box. How did you do that?

    The Bumps floating in the water was a bit of a headache for me to get the right effect, if i get time today i will make a quick vid to show you how.

    @Devils I'm doing some work for clients atm, pop me a mail over to toyboxuk[at]hotmail.com if you want or come on skype: utopiangames
