So, F is for Falling 1.3 was released last night, and a huge bug got by me, saving of high scores. I had completely redone the high scores to make it load faster, and I must have missed the ‘update high scores’ feature. Not sure how that got by me, but it did.
F is for Falling 1.3 Features:
- Settings menu – just click on the info button
- Scaling difficulty, it gets harder over time
- Better Controls!! You can now select touch or tilt controls.
- Tilt control refinement, the more you tilt, the faster you move.
- Major performance improvements – everything is MUCH smoother
- ‘Play Again’ speed increase, it now resets the level MUCH faster
- Achievements, there are now 7 achievements (hit balloon boy, hit 100 birds, and fall for 1k, 2k, 5k, 10k and 20k feet)
- New Hazard – a UFO
- Hazard Adjustment – Birds don’t kill you anymore, but they do send you into a spin, during which you cannot move
In other news , F is for Falling 1.4 was submitted this morning, and I contacted Apple about a one time expediated review, and I just got an email approving the review, so it should be out this weekend. This is what is in 1.4:
- Bug Fix: High Scores were not saving
- Bug Fix: Player would jiggle when hitting side of gameplay area
- Bug Fix: If you died while spinning, the gameover screen would be rotated
- *Massive* Performance Improvements in switching screens
- Achievement Notifications
- Scoring Updated – Since you’re falling, it now counts down from 40,000 feet.
- Control Optomization – Touch controls are quicker, Tilt controls are even smoother
I'd upload it to the web, but GS doesn't support portrait web games yet
Once 1.4 is out, I'll be back with some promo codes.
