This is awesome. Ghost race against other players is great! I like how it matches you against ghostruns of similar skill levels. I've been wanting a rope game for my phone for a long time! The controls work surprisingly well.
Bugs:
-when the game asks you to rate the game, nothing happens when you select yes
-level 6 doesn't have a name ("level 6")
My suggestions (will edit as i think of more. Edit: this post is becoming a mess):
-add an indication of what place you're currently in (1st, 2nd etc)
-this may be because my rope isn't fully upgraded yet, but it seems hard to get vertical momentum to do fast climbs. I could upgrade my rope with the gems but prefer to earn the coins.
-very smart that you didn't call this "rope race clash" - this leaves the option to add more game modes other than just racing
Comments:
-(just wondering) - how do you currently earn the purple gems other than by buying them? they're insanely valuable compared to the coins. I assume we only start with 200 gems for testing purposes - this is enough to buy all the rope upgrades right off the bat probably. Would be nice to get a free gem when you come in first, or something.
-i love that you can save up to buy new actual ropes too. i'm hoping that that starts your upgrades back off at 0 so you have new stuff to work for
1. add an option to swap places with the d-pad and tapping button (in WA, left hand is tapping, right hand is moving)
This would be nice.
3. add more punishment for landing on walls
Maybe as you gain experience.. I have to say the ability to roll down curved walls and floors is really fun. Perhaps in order to afford the best rope upgrades, you'd have to take stat points off the rope's forgiveness. Alternatively you could have a special meter that gets pumped up when you rope fast/well, which would allow you to roll/hit your head without being punished. Would take some thought to get right. I think most people will want quite a bit of forgiveness, since it's a mobile game.
7. if you land on the ground, add a crosshair that can be aimed with the d-pad which will show where you will fire the rope
Definitely this, please. And the ability to jump!
