Hello Fellow OcUKers

I've just released a game for iphone and must say damn it feels good to be a gangster

I'd love it if you guys could play it, give me some feedback on your experiences and leave a review if you like it.

EniGmA1981 · 15 Mar 2011 at 07:25

Hi, thanks very much for the promo code, let me give you some feedback.

Graphics and sound, I like them both. They both have an old school feel to them, and I really like this. I especially like the music, did you compose it yourself?

Gameplay; While there there do seem to be quite a few physics based puzzle games on the iPhone, I haven't seen this concept before so it's nice to see an original game here.

I've only done the first 3 levels so far and I like the way it's gently ramping up the difficulty curve, I think as long as it doesn't suddenly get too difficult too quickly then you'll have plenty of people after extra levels or even a sequel.

Here's a few small suggestions for you next update, I'd add a timer at the top and also have the target time visible, when you are playing the level. This way you can see how much you need to panic when you get close to the target time. Maybe also have some sort of visible warning as a part of the level when you're close to one of those inescapable holes... but you could be nasty and have a few stars hidden down these holes.

Overall, good job and I think it's better than a lot of the apps I've seen on the store.

Thanks for the feedback man, love it.

Its funny about those holes. I hear that a lot.

I found that playes didnt realise they could go back to the checkpoint often, So i put these holes in that they player is pretty damn likley to fall down, in order to learn the skill of using the checkpoint.

They only really feature on that one level but really seem to annoy people. Maybe change it to just 1 hole instead of two?

I wish I had an iPhone so I could play this, it looks so addictive

Dave85 · 17 Mar 2011 at 02:13

Looks awesome let us know when its on android were lacking cool games

No problem, it's the least I could do.

I'm up to level 14 now and it's getting harder but it's still a good learning curve and I'm really liking it... I'll try and give you some more feedback once I've got a little further if you like.

Also, if you want some more feedback, you may want to post a link to this thread in the Apple section of the forum, as unfortunately most people in this section use Android phones (

), whereas most people in the Apple section had iPhones/iPods/iPads instead.

Maybe try the 'Essential iPhone apps thread'...

I know the level you mean now, as I only remember getting stuck in the holes on 1 level while I think that falling down a hole or off an edge on other level resulted in you falling to your doom. Maybe 1 hole would be better, or maybe have the 1st hole the type that you get stuck in, and the 2nd hole a bottomless pit which brings up the 'quit, checkpoint, restart level' menu when you fall down it - this way you know that you can go back to the checkpoint weather you get stuck or if you die, so to speak.

It is addictive, it's probably my most played game whenever I have a some time to kill...

Get a 2nd hand iPod touch if you're already got a half decent phone, you can run most iPhone apps on them and they're pretty handy for downloading and listening to podcasts also...
