b0.9.2 Released to Beta Testers
July 5, 2009 - balord | 4 comments
Hey Beta Testers --
Login now to download the latest build of Snowferno (b0.9.2) which is our first build released to our beta testers. We emailed you the login info -- let Ben know if you need it re-sent (or if you want to join the beta program).
We're looking for the following:
- Any bugs, naturally.
- How the level progression/ balance feels. (ie is it too hard or too easy?)
- and really anything else you want to tell us about the game!
Please post your thoughts in the comments section below, or email support@benbritten.com.
We are hoping to have the beta last about 2 weeks. If there are big bugs to fix, then we will do additional releases during the 2 week time. Our plan is to do a "final" pre-submission release in 10 days -- around July 15. After that we will submit the newest build as v1.0 to the App Store, and any remaining issues will be fixed in v1.0.1.
b0.9.2 Known Issues
- The number readout in the upper left is a Frames Per Second meter to gauge performance. This is for beta only.
- Settings > Control > "Post Score" toggle does not connect to the online API yet.
- Online account management stuff isn't ready yet. (Settings > Control > "My Leaderboard Settings" takes you to a placeholder page.)
- There are some text-overlay "story" elements and SFX still missing, but nothing that affects gameplay.
- If you make it all the way to the end, it will be obvious that something fancier will replace the final screen.
