Interesting concept. I definitely agree with @mlkpad14 about the controls. I think it would be more enjoyable if touching different sides of the screen moved it in that direction. I also think the gravity should be increased, unless the plan is to increase it gradually over time to make it more challenging. Also, I wasn't a huge fan of how the two ghosts bump into each other. But good job, keep working!

I'll definitely change the controls! What don't you like about the 2 ghosts? How would you change it?

March 07, 2016

I'm not a fan of how they randomly change direction, but if that's a unique element to your game, then I would exaggerate it. But I think either the ghosts should be passable to each other, or they should bounce a lot more. Also, I haven't looked at your code, but how I assume it works right now is that the bounce on the ghosts is set and that's how they bounce off the platform, but they eventually stop bouncing. I would make it so that when they collide with the platform, it sets the y velocity and they bounce the same height every time (or set the velocity to a random number and they bounce at different intervals), but that way they don't eventually stop bouncing.

that is actually how i do it i set a velocity and a bounce so they have a unique bounce each time, and the don't stop bouncing

March 07, 2016

Hm, well that's how I would do it. Every now and then they stop bouncing for me. Actually, I think it's when they stack on top of each other. Maybe they downward velocity of the top ghost cancels the upward velocity of the bottom ghost.

do they stop completely?

March 07, 2016

Yes, but they fall over eventually and the top one will bounce again, but the bottom sort of does a tiny bounce and then falls down and I lose.

Ok, I'll take a look at it! Thanks for the feedback! Oh and i really like your puffer chuck game! I'm working on a game with a sling shot now, thanks for the awesome example!

No problem, have fun with it!

Do you think you could write my game bouncy ghost a review on the AppStore? Thanks!

Nice little game! I like the ghost theme, but eventually you should add different themes so it's not as repetitive and to spice it up. Also, I think I'd like it more if you made it like Orb Smash where you switch sides rather than holding down to move. Overall, I think you should work on the details and add some more material and then it would be more worthy of the App Store. You gave some high level competition, so you should really handle yours games with a lot of care. :)
