1 star reviews

Definitely, I get a constant stream of daily downloads. I cant say the same for iOS. The downside to android is generally they dont pay.

@Blacklight, yep its definitely a problem I havnt been able to solve. While the gameplay is simple (once you understand it), getting to that point isnt as obvious as it could be. Better tutorial might help. You got the right idea though, you are indeed supposed to hit the left/right before you hit the direction cubes, but since the path is constant (never changes order), you can hit it multiple times to queue up future moves.

 

I had a one star review from a Russian fellow who said he liked the game but as it only had one track He was only going to give it one star.... after a bit of though ( I was a bit annoyed at first but you have to let this pass) I responded explaining that I intended to add more to the game if it did well on downloads and ratings and even asked if he had any suggestion to make the game better.

What happened next was quite remarkable, he changed his ratings from one star to five. The morral of the tale is don't respond negatively ever and try to read between the lines. What I realized is that his disappointment came with him wanting more of the game so it was actually very positive, but if I had stayed annoyed or made a bad replay I would missed the positive and still had the 1 star!!

hope this helps you a bit Mr James and well done on getting your game out its a big achievement.

 

Yeah I've had a one star review that included the text 'very cool'.. not sure if that person thought it worked like golf

 

If you're still planning to update it, some way to cancel a move would be good. Maybe by tapping it's icon on the top left part of the screen or something.

Also, the beginning part gets a little annoying after many plays. I just do 9 taps and then have to wait what seems like forever .

 

yeah, ive had that feature requested once or twice. The original suggestion was to swipe it to get rid of them, but I dont think ill introduce that.

as for the intro, yep other ppl have complained about that as well.. not sure i'll do anything about that either though. There used to be no moves at all while you were running under the title. The intention was to allow users to spam as many moves in as they could remember. I can get to about 40ish then I have to start playing by reading the path.

 

Maybe you can repurpose it as a Brain Training Game and find more success. Seems like an interesting way to improve your memory.
