Rock Racing Game for mobile!

[DW-]

Just picked up the donate version, can't wait to get home to play it. Any chance it'll be available through the Amazon app store so I can get it on my son's Kindle? I don't want him hogging my phone.

bought the donation version tonight. Just sent an email about a issue about no onscreen buttons on my Droid 3

I'm working on a fix now.

I wish it saved what paint scheme I was using after exiting. Pretty minor though.

This will definitely be added in a future update. Thanks.

Any thoughts on making this avail for the Apple products?

The final version will be available on the Apple App Store. We're trying to raise some of the funds with this beta to buy the required licenses (a couple grand).

Maybe have a hi and lo range...so alittle faster through the go fast courses and then have a really low range for crawling.

I'll be tweaking the "drivetrain" in the leadup to the final release. I'll look into something like this.

Haha, damn kids!

Thanks for the donation!

We are exploring the alternative app stores for Android. Each of them comes with their own quirks (the joy of android development). We do want to publish on Amazon's store though, so we are looking into it.

Any one still playing? what are you ranked? what is your favorite level?

Yea, i do a race every now and then, only got to course 3 though...I'm ranked pretty high on 1 & 3 last i played that course. I couldn't figure out course 2, every time i hit the rocks at the end it seemed like my engine would stall for 5 seconds then the tires would start spinning.

So far i like 3 the the best

So, just play'd course 4.

I normally play with the volume off, but i turned it on. tonight The first run music plays but if you restart it is a constant glitching noise. I have a sony go

Also, if your offline and get a high record, it doesn't update to swarm. My time for course 4 is 1:56.041 and swarm is still saying 1:58.something.

And, i run into the checkpoint banners alot...are these meant to be an obstacle? Because i think i'd prefer them to be nonsolid and fly right through them

Finally, a question. Does damage to the buggy affect performance?

Seems to have a big effect on low end power, like when you come to a stop on rocks.

Installed!

The gates are there to slow you down yes, but they will break away after collision in the later updates. And when you damage your car, it effects the top speed, torq, and responsiveness of the engine.

The sounds are all being worked on still.
I have got 1:45 on level 3. but i was downloading so my bandwidth was taken up and my tablet didn't update it. You need a connection to post scores. otherwise it just saves your time in game. make sure you are connected before you try to do a best time run.

Good news on the iTunes. I'll be keeping an eye out for it.

Sorry Harley, I had to get rid of droid, hated it.

Just finished the final level for the desert. Nothing but hardcore crawling! Time 3:30 seconds

with help from nikescar i got this loaded on my "dumb" phone via USB.
it asked me to sign in with some "swarm" deal but was able to bypass it and play as guest.
did my first course 1! bad ass game. wow thats awesome. great looking and playing!
if i had to try to find something to improve, wish the tires had a hair more traction. would like to be able to crawl over some of the stuff like the concrete barrels etc. as apposed to having to bump up on them with a hair of speed. very minor.
also my phone appeared to struggle to keep up when i got some speed built up. (galaxy S1 4g) its empty since im not online, (ie not a bunch of songs, apps, etc like most people), just as the phone came.
i got graphic lag/frame rate drop when i got to moving fast.

cant wait to donate and buy the full version too.:mrgreen:

finished course 1 in a blazing 2:36 first try

Going to hit the playstore now... !!

I'm glad you got it working!

The traction model is going to be worked on before the final release. That said, you should be able to crawl up and over the concrete and other things by applying just a sliver of throttle.

also my phone appeared to struggle to keep up when i got some speed built up.

I have a lot of optimization to do still. I'm shooting for a steady 30fps on devices like yours.

huge thanks!
awesome, as a crawler id love to have the option to be able to slow snails pace the entire course if possible (not careing about score/time obviously) would be great if that was possible with the new traction model i find that as fun or more fun as the fast rock racing. being able to do both would seem like a simple traction mod?

on the graphics, the second time i played it actually locked up my phone and shut it down. the 3rd time worked fine. i will keep testing. also if it helps out i "THINK" it might be the background mountains causing the slowdown. not the foreground car/obsticals etc. i will continue to test and see if my theory holds up.

im working on getting wifi on my dumb phone so i can get the donate version. right now i only have course 1 on the free version. is this because im so slow:lmao:, or because its not the donate version? ie does the donate version have more courses than the free version?

wish this was also available on xbox live too. but i know that would take billions of dollars and legal BS.

also i noticed a banner in the background. it said "Rock Racer: Buggy Version". does this mean a truck version is on the horizon too? or am i reading too much into it.

cant wait to get home to play all night on the phone. Fcking technology. :mrgreen:

Awesome game.. Im rippin it up on various levels...

 

[Nitro_Geezer_UK]

Iv just downloaded it on my Samsung Tab10, its cool. I cant quite get reverse working properly though. I'll get it with a bit of practice.
