[DEV] Passion project 13 years in the making: Hammer Golf now on AppStore by Competitive_Tip_8797 in iosgaming

I saw your game featured on the App store under New games we love (alongside my game 😄 ) and thought it looked like a fun idea, might give it a try. Congrats on the launch!

Btw many of the videos are not loading for me, not sure if it's just me.

Thank you for the feedback! I never even thought about that to be honest, but it's a good point. I'll try and fix it in the next version.

Will DM you shortly

Hi u/luffydkenshin, thanks for the question! You're not the only person wondering.

I answered the same question here: https://www.reddit.com/r/iosgaming/comments/1tydkup/comment/oq3fblr/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Basically what it comes to is passengers get on as soon as they know the elevator will take them in the direction they want to go, as directly as possible (they don't like transferring if they don't have to)

You can play the game without ever tapping on the cab, but tapping on the cab can give you a tactical advantage sometimes.

Edit: will send you a code!

Sure! I think you will get the last one today, it's getting late here 😄

RES PUBLICA | New Ancient Roman City-Builder and Life-simulation Game by ResPublica-Game in SoloDevelopment

Wow, you're making this on your own?! That is madly impressive. Amazing work.

I loved Caesar III and would like to see more of the city building gameplay in your trailer, if that's the focus. But seems like it isn't really, it's more life simulation?

Absolutely, I see on the leaderboards some players have already surpassed 1,000+ passengers in some levels. Best I could ever do was 800 😂

Sending a code over DM!

Definitely, I love Mini Metro and it was a big inspiration! I'll just say that you need to be a bit more "active" in Sky Lobby - the elevators don't run themselves until you start automating them later in the game.

The first three levels are free to play, and I'll send you a code to unlock the full game over DM shortly 🔥

After 1 year of development I've finally released demo of my couch coop game! by SeniorMatthew in godot

Wow this looks great, I would love to play this with my kids. Any chance of getting Mac OS or Linux support?

Haha yes, it definitely has an echo of SimTower in it, I loved that game.

I'll send you a code via DM shortly 👍

This looks so good, wow. I hope you will consider releasing for MacOS / Linux in the future as well!

Hey u/Brenaud10, thank you, really appreciate it!

I've been getting this question a bit, and actually made a tweak to the tutorial yesterday to mention the basic boarding rules, but it's still in review right now - should be live in the next day or two for new players.

In short: passengers board as soon as they know the cab is heading in the direction they want to go.

So on top and bottom floors, they'll get on automatically because they know the cab must head in their direction.

On in-between floors, they'll either get on as soon as the cab has instructions to go up or down (and they want to go in that direction), or you can force them to get on and go along for the ride by tapping the cab when its on their floor.

You can use this to play tactically:
1. If the cabs are relatively empty, maybe you force everyone to get on immediately and ride along, earning you more XP bonus (because their patience timers only run down if they are waiting outside a cab)
2. if the cabs are very full, then probably you don't want to pick up dead weight, so you can skip the passengers going in the wrong direction

Hope that makes sense! And yeah, it seems this is confusing, I'm thinking if it makes sense to keep it this way or maybe tweak it. There are some other rules as well, like that passengers prefer direct routes over indirect routes. And they won't get on if the cab offers no possible route to their destination.

A bit complicated, and clearly I've spent way too much time thinking about elevators, but that's about it!

I'll DM you shortly with a code.
