MY NEW GAME : Wheel's Now on App Store

oxhey

My first game in now on the app store.

The aim (as of version 0.8) is to collect as many points as you can in the chosen time limit.

There are cool characters to choose from (pixel people).

The game currently has a freemode and no story - but thats changing soon.

My game is here - http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/wheels/id538445359?ls=1&mt=8

It would be cool if you could play it and give some feedback.

PS. Im aware of the timer bug , Iv submitted version 0.9 which should be updated soon.

I think you should change the screen shots, because I don't think that many people will pay for a game if they can't even see the gameplay.

Yh , i was think about that , but tbh the last screenshot sums up the gameplay for now . Theres not really a "story" .


Im thinking of adding a system of unlocks - or levels.

E.G certain amount of points = xp or something like that

enough xp = new character (as of yet character have no benefit other than looking cool

Any other suggestions are welcome

Yeah and the overboard on your name and copyright screams amateur.

you might want to change the icon as well it does not looks like a game icon.

The other, BIGGER issue is that in one of your screenshots I can see two characters which looks like they came directly from Tiny Tower. I hope it is not true, because if it is, it is illegal.

@EatingMyHat saw that as well.

The characters are not taken from tiny towers. I created them in photoshop and have the layers psd file to prove it. They look similar because of the 8 bit style.


What would you make the icon

@oxhey
I just looked again- did you add more shots?

You are in dangerous territory with your character style being so similar to the Tiny Tower characters. But even without that, you can't use the Doctor Who name or any other existing characters without a licence.

Maybe change the names to something similar, so it's a bit of a parody?

Okay , i know that . As of version 0.9 these are the changes being made:

1 . Removing character names
2 . New Icon
3 . Less copyright stuff ( only on the splash screen)
4 . A splash screen
5. Fixing a timing bug

I don't like the menu, you should change thee buttons because they are not enough visible, and don't make the hole menu gray. In the screen shots put the best screen shot first ( the one of the gameplay)

crazycam99

And custom fonts but that is not important.

oxhey

The menu isnt grey. It looks nice .How are the buttons not visible enought?

Anyway iv sumbited the 0.9 update - when that comes out , i look forward to hearing ur opinions. Then if you still dont like the menu , we can work on it
