Hello! We set up Boards from gamers (nearly 13 years ago... holy sh*t :eek:) and now I'm going back to games (cos I'm addicted to them :)) I've created a mobile game (my first) and I think its pretty great. But what do I know :) It works on iPhone, iPad and Android (phone and tablets) If you would agree to test it for me,…

Best of luck with it lads, the more game development going on in Ireland the more likely the industry will take hold. Be sure you make yourselves known over at gamedevelopers.ie too, and take part in the latest Irish Games Survey if you haven't already.

right over there at the Eternal Currency Exchange... -->

Ok, so we got like 62 people wanting to test which is beyond awesome. But also too many for me to email personally (which is what I had intended ). We're going to use MailChimp and manage things from there. I'll send out the first explanations over the weekend. Our programmer's infection isnt better today so he's out and the User Test build isnt there just yet.
Anyway in the mean time we'll get everyone set up for downloading it and stuff.

While the game itself is pretty much complete from a gameplay point of view, its still quite an early beta so for example there is no ending yet (you just die ) and the shop doesnt work (you dont need it to, you have unlimited coins!). But the game itself is as polished as we want to make it before we show it to ye.
(Its a careful balance between showing you rubbish... and being so far down the polishing that we cant take any feedback on board..)

I cant tell you how excited we are about this. Just a few more days...
Thanks,
DeV.

It's this Karlh

While looking for that profile I noticed there is also a Karlh2002 which is the opposite for me if it belongs to same person. I originally created balkieb in 2001 but forgot my password so was left with my current username!

On-topic thanks for email Dev and looking forward to the testing!
