Bird Copter published to Amazon Fire TV!

blue_elephant

So I made a game, kind of as a test game for amazon tv. It's really simple (iCopter type game) as it only uses the A button to play. It got published yesterday and its free if you want to test it out that'd be great! Hope you like it.

Does someone want to test it out and let me know if everything works okay?

Anyone? sorry for being persistent but I want to know if it works on Fire TV as expected as I only tested it with a game controller on mac. My fire tv is on the way!

I downloaded it to my fireTV a few min ago, but I won't be able to give it a go until we get the kids in bed. I'll let you know in a few hours!

@blue_elephant I downloaded it just now and I don't have a controller so I was just using the remote (which the fire tv advised me not to do) and it worked for two plays then I couldn't get any response from the remote.

@blue_elephant I deleted your app and then re downloaded it. This time I was only able to play the game once and now have no idea how I got the game to play twice my first time.
At the post menu I am unable to press A to restart the game. (or the center button in my case) however I don't know if it works fine on a controller.

@jonmulcahy Thanks!
@kickink Thats odd, it passed those tests according to Amazon. So it goes to the game over scene and then when you press A nothing happens? Let me know, i'll try to fix.

I wonder if this problem is one of the known bugs in the other amazon rejection thread? The one with amazon not working with our apps using the normal controller. When they published it, next to remote, it did say N/A. I don't know.

Thanks guys. Already gotten 60+ downloads which is more than I thought considering it's only for fire TV!
