After taking a couple days off to relax, the next update has begun…. Lots of work to do, and I think there are going to be more good things coming soon. What we’re thinking of putting in:
1) New courses
2) More achievements
3) ‘Challenge’ mode
4) Maybe a ’slight’ tweaking of some pars
5) Local multiplayer (may or may not have time to get to this one)
6) Shot addition powerdowns (opposite of shot subtractors)…. I’ve got some interesting ideas for hole designs with this one…
7) practice mode (practice any unlocked hole)
bug fixes
9) possibly an unlockable feature that allows you to change the color of your stickman and/or type of fireball shot
After a weekend of polishing, the update is finally ready and submitted to apple. Some good things in the update including:
4 brand new courses
Pinch screen to zoom out (iphone version only)
Longer more accurate power meter
More responsive ‘Go’ button
More accurate arrows for aiming
A ‘restart course’ button
Improved collision physics
Fixes for background audio
Shot subtractor powerups
7 new achievements
New way to unlock courses
Courses grouped by difficulty
Bronze, Silver, and Gold star rating
Bug fixes and performance improvements
A big update to Stick Golf is well on the way. In the next update we’ll be adding a few new things including:
- 4 brand new courses! (which will include one more ‘beginner’ course)
- A course ‘restart’ button on the menu.
- Fine-tuning aim. (slower movement of the directional arrow)
- Longer and more accurate power meter.
- Shot bonus subtractors!!! (new special feature)
- Slight re-working of how courses are unlocked.
- More responsive ‘Go’ button.
- Wind tweaks in ‘hard’ mode.
- Control button ‘alignment’ settings.
- Various other small things…
Stay tuned…
UPDATE!!
Some screen caps from the next update:
Stick Golf HD for iPad has been approved and is ready to download in the app store! Be sure to grab it while it’s still on sale here!
A quick video of the gameplay:
Stick Golf has gotten some good reviews lately! It’s also been named to the top 3 games of may by Appmodo. Saweet!
Check out some of the reviews here!
So we finished up our last week of beta testing. There’s no show stopping problems, so we’re wrapping up and making our first submission to apple. Here’s hoping there’s no problems, and Stick Golf should be live on the app store within the next couple weeks!
Or course we still could be adding features, but at some point you just gotta stop and roll with it. If things work out, we’ll be adding new courses every couple weeks and trying to get new updates out often. Stay tuned…
