Please post any feedback on the game as I'm a one man development team and have no friends to show the game!

Enjoying it but keeps freezing while trying to load an ad.

That's not cool, just out of curiosity are you on wifi or mobile? Also would you mind shutting it down and seeing if it freezes again on the ad?

Will check this out on the iPad when I get home. Played the s**t out of the Flash game on the net a few years back.

WiFi and will give it a go bit later.

Restarted it and same thing happened.

I'm on wifi, got up to season 4 and it froze loading an ad after a match. Had had ads before then that were fine but this one froze the game.

I closed and restarted. Was able to play the match (that I had previously played before the freeze.) but froze post match trying to load the ad again.

Other than that really liked it. Fast levelling is good and 5 seasons is pretty generous for free. I'd think about cutting it to 3 if I were you.

Sweet, you'll probably want at least a iPad Air and up I've tested on my 3rd Gen iPad and it's a bit sluggish.

Cool, it should have code to recognise when a ad load has gone bad and continue but I might ad something to override that again after like 10 or 15 seconds. I'll add it to the update list

Cheers mate, yeah I'll probably play with the number of seasons available for free I actually started at 8 and got talked down to 5... but 3 might be the magic number but early on just want people to enjoy the game before I start turning the screws

Using a 4th gen and it runs fine, did have the same freeze on the first ad that a few others have had though. Still just as fun as the flash game.

Hey mate, iPhone 6 on wifi, loving the game but once again freezes when loading the first ad after about 7 games

Edit on above, closing the app and re-opening has allowed me to continue

That's good to know about the 4th gen iPad running alright I was a bit worried as I'd only tested on 3rd gen and 5th gen. I' going to try and fix the ad crashing bug in a update so hopefully be updated in a day or two.

Thanks for the feedback mate, I'm going to try and sort it out hopefully in the next couple of days.

 

[Sidog]

The freezing ad bug should be fixed if you update to the latest version. 1.0.1

 

[SugarShane]

Music is great too btw, has a very retro feel to it.

 

[Mkcaptain]

This is a great fun game. I'm fairly terrible at it though

Thanks, I see you're doing pretty good on the Leaderboards

 

[Cynic]

Noticed a minor issue where the game can freeze if a fielder drops a catch then throws it to the stump/keeper who just lets it go. The ball just sits in the outfield and game needs to be restarted. Only happened twice though.

Oh really? I thought I'd been pretty poor early.

Thanks mate! Just follow the advice of coach Boff and you'll be a superstar in no time

That's wonky as! I've never seen that myself. Just curious on both times how far was the fielder from the wicket keeper? Was it close in or in the outfield?
