Bounce Marathon First Release

Gyver

Hi Guys

My first game is now released at app store so check it out and please leave me feedback.

Check it out at app store here: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/bounce-marathon/id494975137?ls=1&mt=8 or the homepage here: http://games.hanssonjonas.com/#home

It is a classic ping-pong idea with a modern twist and it is quite addictive for all who tried it.

I will add it to the arcade later but right now please feel free to use the promos.

My favorite are the Combo score who gives you more points for multiple hits

UPDATE: I just played a game of Bounce Marathon and I gotta say that I was expecting more from the game. You have to figure that for .99 I can get a copy of angry birds or Run Roo Run or Cut the Rope and those games offer a ton of stuff to do with great artwork and addictive gameplay. So why would I choose Bounce Marathon over these for a new app I want? That's something you have to ask yourself while you're developing.

I think there are things you can do with this genre to make it more fun and interesting. Adding obstacles, different style boards...that sort of thing. I think the item blocks are great and the ball psychics are spot on.

I see you're making updates which is a step in the right direction but I would recommend maybe having more to offer up front instead of offering it piece-meal later through updates.

I'm sorry my feedback wasn't more positive but I hope this helped.

Hey Gyver, looks fun. I used Promo M7KWH93AFP4P, I'll give you some feedback a little later when I play it!

Hi Glom

Thanks for your feedback. I appreciate you being honest.

I would really like you to try the update and I will send you a PM a soon as it's released. (It's under review right now.) It contains some of your suggestions. For example a new combo score who give the player a new strategy to collect boxes in a row instead for more pionts. I also tweaked the settings for more optimal ball speed during the game and increased the spawning rate of the boxes for more action.

Obstacles are a good idea and i consider it for a new game mode.

Regarding the different boards i realized during development that a plane background without details was the best for optimal view. So the game only have versatile colors of the background och the bar. Its randomized for every new game you play. And hopefully you don't get bored
