Question about resetting

JacobGeary

Hey everyone,

I was just curious if there was a way when testing on your ipod to reset it so its like you have never used the game before.

I have a bunch of load attributes on my main screen so when I open the game it loads all the levels I have unlocked, my scores, etc. I just need a way to get rid of these to make it as if its my first time playing the game. It does this when testing on the computer but not when testing on my ipod. Any thoughts??

Also can I change my gamesalad account name?? haha or is this permanent?

Delete the app off your ipod, then re-synch to load it back up. Every saved attribute will be reset.

Or put a 'reset button' in.

My game 'Gravitrixx' has one - essentially it:

Changes the saved attributes to 0
Saves the new value (0) of the attribute.

Do this for every attribute.

It's a pain, but it works (and is a handy feature for players too).

Alternatively, you should be saving a new version every few changes you make. When you want to test with all attributes at their default value, save as a new version and put it on your ipod.

Hope that helps!

edit: By 'new version' I mean iteration - i.e. Gravitrixx1, Gravitrixx2, Gravitrixx3 etc etc
