F is for Falling 1.3 was just approved, and it’s a massive update:
- Settings menu – just click on the info button
- Scaling difficulty, it gets harder over time
- Better Controls!! You can now select touch or tilt controls.
- Tilt control refinement, the more you tilt, the faster you move.
- Major performance improvements – everything is MUCH smoother
- ‘Play Again’ speed increase, it now resets the level MUCH faster
- Achievements, there are now 7 achievements (hit balloon boy, hit 100 birds, and fall for 1k, 2k, 5k, 10k and 20k feet)
- New Hazard – a UFO
- Hazard Adjustment – Birds don’t kill you anymore, but they do send you into a spin, during which you cannot move.
This update addressed many of the complaints on iTunes, the jerkyness movement and the slow load times. Please update your reviews once you have played it. You can find it in the App Store here.
I’m wrapping up work in version 1.4 and it’s even faster / smoother than 1.3. 1.4 is going to be a big hit.
