[One Foul Note]

I updated Rayman but in the game, it tells me it's downloading the new level pack. Except it doesnt seem like it is? And I click tap on it



Also, I realized if you downloaded Middle Manager when it was up on App Store prematurely, you can redownload/update to the official release regardless of region

Yeah, it is a little random. You download the update just to download the levels in the game itself. It does have this progress bar going when you download the pack (took me about 10 secs) so if you don't see that moving then you can assume that it isn't working okay.


Is the Walking Dead Assault game still good if you have like no investment in the story and universe?

 

[GeekyDad]

My Walking Dead: Assault review will be up today.

Bad news: It's not great.
Good news: It's not bad.

News: It is good.

Just to clarify -- IGN or no -- it's still just your opinion, not news, and an opinion I disagree with it. I think it's pretty darn great for an iOS RTS.

 

[Jackben]

I agree with him though and "not great, but good" is basically what I've been feeling. It's worth the sale price and if you're a Walking Dead super fan I definitely recommend giving it a shot. Still not quite enough to convince me to buy any of the planned expanded content though.

some things were best left in the past.

Fuck all the GTA remote control missions, shit was always frustrating.

Since it is officially released only in Canada, is there any reason they'd wipe my data if I use it in the US?

Mine has no progress bar whatsoever and tapping it does nothing It says "downloading" but my connection isn't that crappy that there's no progress...

That's weird. Try redownloading the game.

 

[Pachimari]

Modern Combat 4 will be 1.44GB apparently.

There's also a launch trailer out.

 

[Wario64]

That's weird. Try redownloading the game.

Yeah, just did...still doesn't work, weird. Hmm. I can tap on it and it sounds like there's a confirmation, but just nothing happens. I'll try later

Mine doesn't work either.

Well... now i'm juniored, someone else gotta make the MC4 OT lol.

 

[Jedeye Sniv]

lmao what happened? Is this thread your glorious swansong??

 

[Jackben]

For the Vita scam thread I bet. Gotta be more subtle with your titles and back up your OP with a better argument if you're gonna stir the pot like that, lol.

 

[Jackben]

5 locked threads in a month. I'm not sure why you are surprised chickdigger.

Knights of Pen and Paper has gotten exceedingly boring. I wish I hadn't picked my classes so quick as the pattern of battles has been predictable and sleep-inducing. Can hardly force myself to finish each quest. Just use weaken with my cleric, stunlock enemies with mage and rogue and then hack away.

the dupe I get, no clue why others got locked. The thing is I got jred at like 3am yesterday with no explanation or warning or anything which is the confusing part.

Is knights worth the 2 bucks though?

Yeah it's definitely worth 2 bucks. I am just lamenting that I am stuck in a boring pattern with my play because I bought up all my character slots and recruited early so I'd have to restart with a low level character if I wanted to change things up with the new classes I unlocked. Refuse to restart like that though because the leveling is grindy enough as is. Also traveling feels like a huge chore when you have to backtrack through a bunch of areas to get to a specific place and can't just queue up your destination.

 

[Pachimari]

Catan HD just dropped in price by almost 50%.
Worth it?

11 Bit Studios also hope to have Anomaly: Korea out before the end of the month.

The Woods is out December 7.

Eh, I would agree with the opinion that Assault is merely a good game. It falls short in a few areas to be great, I think.

I'm just pulling yer leg mate I think all those frame and line counting freaks should be banned from making threads too! Digital Foundry is a scourge upon the landscape. SO BORING. And people that make FF music threads.

I should never be a mod.

People love FF music!

Spoiler

freaks!

Very awesome game.

 

[One Foul Note]

If you can get it working, the Rayman update is well worth checking out. Just finished the new world except the dead world level and the levels keep up the Rayman quality. Also you can play as Globox now, or as I like to call him 'the main character of the Rayman games.'

 

[SeanR1221]

Finally downloading Arc on my iPad. Lets see how it is.

 

[Zeth]

Holy shit Raiden Legacy is already out. By DotEmu. iCade support. Includes 4 games.

 

[railGUN]

Does the Free App Slots website run like shit for anyone else? It was okay for me for the first couple of days but lately the page barely loads.

 

[xelios]

Word Wonders: The Tower of Babel is currently free. Played a few hours on iPad and highly recommend getting it to try out sometime.

• Game Center + Achievements
• Scrabble turn-based combat
• Nice music & graphics (quite beautiful on iPad)
• Lite RPG elements: Scrabble version of FFX sphere grid, alchemy and use of items and spells in combat
• Three difficulty modes for battles
• Have seen no reason so far why anyone would need in-app purchases (more currency)

So yeah, definitely check it out if Scrabble combat sounds like something you'd enjoy.

I gave away as many Sonic 4 Episode II codes as I could in the Canada thread, now it's iOS GAF's turn.

Way too lazy type all of these out. Please post which one you've taken once you use one. First come first serve.

Yeah, it's so buggy and laggy even on my ipad 4. My luck has also been shit with the spins. Fuck you NFS most wanted.

 

[chickdigger802]

free app slots also doesn't give a fuck if your phone is on mute.

 

[Lonely1]

Is it just me, of IB/IB2 doesn't play all that well on big(er) screens? I find inputs to be too separated from each other on my iPad Mini. I can't imagine being better on a regular iPad.

So, a heads up on a promotion we are running in our free OREO: Twist, Lick, Dunk game this coming Sunday via Kiip who offer tangible ingame rewards.

For US residents only, they are running a "25 days of Xmas" promotion where every day this month they are pushing premium rewards into a Kiip enabled game or app. This Sunday it will be the turn of our OREO game, and we have the same thing lined up for Slam Dunk King and Into the Dead later in the month.

Prizes include

- Assassins Creed III on PS3/360
- Dark Knight Rises DVDs
- The Amazing Spiderman DVDs
- Amazon gift vouchers
- AMC gift vouchers
- Regal Cinemas vouchers
- Kindle Paperwhites
- Nerf guns
- Jawbone JAMBOXs
- SKLZ Pro Mini Basketball Hoops

All you have to do is play. The more you play, the more likely you are to pick up a prize.

Some pretty cool prizes there I think. You can keep an eye out for each daily app receiving premium rewards at http://www.facebook.com/Kiip

 

[Ministration]

Also Ravenmark is great. Thanks to the dev here for the feedback. Only about halfway through it. Some serious tense battles in there. I would say its like Fire Emblem meets Total War(ish)

Sweet! Let me know if you have feedback about the game, we're always happy to learn how to make the game even better.

We're hoping to push out the Raven's Rise campaign update by the end of this month, which will close out the main story arc of the war between Estellion and Kaysan. Hope those of you guys following the game's progress will look forward to it.

 

[Smiley90]

For US residents only

It's because I called you TikTok, right

 

[Mario]

It's because I called you TikTok, right

Yes, you will be punished relentlessly for that

Kiip do have regular rewards campaigns running all the time in other countries like Canada and New Zealand. They tend to to be for smaller vouchers, discounts and items though, not premium items like this promotion.

Seeing as you are based in Canada, there was a promotion over the weekend giving away 1000 Scene points which I believe is enough to get a free movie pass or drink/popcorn combo. Not sure if it is still running though.

Played the first episode of The Walking Dead last night. Now I get what all the fuss is about. Need to avoid spoilers until I've played the rest!

iCade support! My wish came true.

[chickdigger802]

So I'm thinking of updating the OT with games gaf created (not published). Here's what I got so far.

Balloon Boy
Gunman Clive
Ravenmark
Arc Squadron

I'm sure there was a word game a few pages or last OT, and one where you roll a ball. Anyhow, list them, if ain't garbage, it goes on the list

 

[Zzoram]

King of Dragon Pass is pretty good but so much of what is happening is not well explained and there is a lot of luck to the game.

I've enjoyed the ~8 hours I've put into it but I don't think this is something I'm going to be playing much in the future.

 

[Fuu]

Ubisoft's Babel Rising 3D and Adult Swim's Super Mole Escape are currently free.

Oh man, there's loads! Top of my head, these devs are all gaffers:

Simogo (Beat Sneak Bandit, Bumpy Road)
Halfbrick (Age of Zombies, Jetpack Joyride, Fruit Ninja)
Grumpyface (Wispin, Bring Me Sandwiches, Super Mole Escape)
PikPok (Monsters Ate My Condo, Flick Kick Everything)
Lonely Few (Brainsss)

There's a game I'm forgetting the name of - randomly generated survival zombie game in a tiny town at night, iPad... was pretty good...

I'm sure there's LOADS I'm forgetting, but these are the games I always think of as being GAFfer made. There's dozens of drive-by posts from devs pimping their games too.

Our small studio made Strange Matter (might be the 'rolling' game chickdigger mentioned), which is a sci-fi, tilt, shooter game.

I've just got up to the level with the

Boar

unit, and I just want to pass up my congratulations to whoever did the ingame art work of its unit banner that shows up whenever it attacks. That unit attacked quite a lot in that level but that picture still made me smile whenever its came up.

 

[Pachimari]

So it should be a matter of minutes before the new games go up on the New Zealand App Store right?

 

[Synless]

I had no idea there was a DJMax for iOS! I have an issue though, I am trying to buy song packs and it won't let me, it says I am in offline mode and I have no idea how to turn it on. Any help?
