Hi, Budbrain. Sorry for my bad first impression. Actually, i'm a beginner (hobbyist) game programmer and just wanna promote my app. If this is a wrong place to it, i'm really sorry and please feel free to remove my post.

@BudBrain For someone with such a limited posting history, you're not the best person to be welcoming a new poster. If you'd checked the rest of the Mobile section of the forum, it's actually preferred that developers be up front about who they are and promoting their games; what isn't welcomed is the type of posts that we used to get, where a first time poster would make a new thread telling us about this "awesome new game I just downloaded!"

So, yes, give your opinion on what you think of a game that someone links to, even if you happen to think it's crap, but don't go telling people not to be honest about what or why they're posting, that's what more regular posters have put a lot of effort into stopping.

@BudBrain someone with less then 20 posts shouldn't judge anyone's first post. For now watch listen and learn

It's sound advice

How can you spam with one post?

He's promoting his game, on a games forum. Nowt wrong with that.

I've downloaded and installed the game but I'm stuck at the select mission screen. Mission 1 has a bright green circle around it but I can't select it, when I tap on controls it does nothing either. All I can do is scroll round the select mission screen. I'm using a Galaxy S4 btw

Just downloaded it, you double tap the screen buddy.

I've tried double tapping nothing happens. I'll try uninstalling and re-downloading see if it helps

Hi all ! First of all, sorry for the confusion caused by my post. I've seen some others users that also has few posts promoting their games, so i thought it wouldn't be a problem.

wayneh, some users have reported the same problem with samsung s4. Unfortunately i coudn't find any friends with s4 but i could borrow a tectoy tablet that had the same problem and i've just fixed it and released at 1.2.4 version (may take some couple of hours to be updated in google play). I'm not 100% sure if it's really fixed with s4, so please can you try and feedback me again ?

crwoody, as i'm a beginner, only now realized how difficult is to develop for multiple devices and to promote the app ^_^ ... Anyway, sorry for the inconvenience, can you tell me if at least the game shows the title screen ? Wich device you are using ? I'll try my best to fix the problem.

Thanks Sid-Nice, YenRug, Ashleyfiddes, twelveways, OptimusPube for your support and also thanks to BudBrain that helped to make this post little bit commented

!

I have to say it's a cool little game, not bad for a first attempt.

All working fine now on my S4. As said previously not bad for a first attempt, plays smooth, tilt controls well implemented and very responsive just not much meat to the game as such. Good luck with your developing future

@Salaman My post didn't "tell him off", in was sound advice.. grow a pair already.

@twelveways "How can you spam with a single post" - Google the first sentence of his post, you'll find multiple 'copy and paste' instances on other forums by the same guy. Relevant, yes but looks like spam - it could be done better. Again, sound advice not to do so.

@ono-leo You're welcome, though I wouldn't be too pleased with this being the #1 conversation.

@wayneh More than 11 now Though being a member for 10 posts seems more polite than bursting through the forum door with an advert? Maybe the worlds gone mad, I dunno

So much angst, just calm down and breath. When you've settled in a bit you will realise how things work around here. If someone is out of line the regulars will soon jump in and explain how things are done. Make a few friends and chill rather than telling people to 'grow a pair'. Oh and download and try the game and leave some feedback

Wait, postcounts matter now?

Does this mean I've finally achieved something with my life?

BudBrain, you will do my bidding.

As this is your first post, it makes you look like a spammer.

Also, I'm guessing the 1 feedback your game has received (a massive 5/5) was left by you?

I'd suggest you come back to the thread tomorrow, re-read this post you made, and your subsequent posts, and see why people might be picking you up on your 'post count' issue.

If having less than 10 posts means you can call someone up on how they should or shouldn't post, I'd say that their first post being about their game is equally fine.

And you were extremely judgemental about the 5/5 feedback being left, and quite passive-aggressive with the comment. As are remarks like 'grow a pair'.

The original post was polite, openly stated it was his game (when many don't state that) and to the point.

Back OT, I'll give the game a go ono-leo, to reward the honest pushing of wares rather than the stealth posts we usually see.
