zircon Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Hey everyone, For the last few months I've been working with Firestarter Games on an awesome little iOS game called Globulous, and we're really proud of it. It's a 3D spatial puzzle game; if you've played Tetrisphere you'll be right at home! Jeff Ball and I created all the audio in the game, which includes over 40 minutes of music. Firestarter is now looking for people to help test the game. We'd love if you could take a few minutes to play it - you'll need an iPhone (gen 4+), or an iPad (gen 1+). After you create a TestFlight account and sign up your device, it may take a day or two to get a build. An email will be sent your way automatically when you're all set. Sign up at TestFlight for the Beta Build: http://bit.ly/y7AvAo Once you're done, we'd really appreciate if you'd give feedback via our very short post-play survey: Post-Play Survey: http://bit.ly/JTKu0B Thanks in advance on behalf of the Firestarter team!

Nutritious Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 If I had an iphone, I'd totally get in on this, but alas, I'm an android user. Sounds very cool, though. Good luck with your project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nonamer Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Sweet! I'll test it out once exams are over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jandalf Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 I do have an iPhone and I do have time. Having your music in that game makes it an all sweeter deal! I'm so signing up for testing now! Cheers, NinjaN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BardicKnowledge Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Really, no support for iTouch 3/iPhone 3GS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zircon Posted May 2, 2012 Author Share Posted May 2, 2012 My understanding is they initially sought to release for older versions of iOS but realized they would not be able to properly optimize to make the playing experience smooth. I do believe it will run, just not well (at this point). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmr Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Is there any way to provide feedback outside of the survey? I've been having trouble getting the game to work... When I select Tutorial 01, I see a loading screen (with ridiculously small text) followed by what seems to be a crash at this screen. Running v1.0.1012 on an iPhone 4S.

zircon Posted May 3, 2012 Author Share Posted May 3, 2012 Passed the bug along. First time we've heard about this afaik... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zircon Posted May 3, 2012 Author Share Posted May 3, 2012 JMR, can you reproduce this bug 100% of the time? Does it always crash/not run like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jandalf Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 ehh... Somebody here can help me, please? I signed up for testing and got the required info. Installed the Testfligth web clip and it's profile yesterday. Today, I got mail saying I can install Globulous. Now, when I open the Testflight web clip, I can see the option to install it. So far so good... Now comes the bummer: Whenever I click on "Install", it aks me to install another profile and then revisit that page. I click "OK", install the profile and then revisit the page. Problem is, the installed profile doesn't seem to be recognized. Instead, Testflight tells me to install the profile again and again. I simply cannot install the app itself! Here 're my stats: - iPhone 4S (32 GiB) - iOS 5.0.1 (jailbroken with redSnow) I tried respringing / restarting my device between installing the profile and revisiting the site, but had no luck. Anybody have an idea what to do now? I really want to help you testing! Cheers, NinjaN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zircon Posted May 3, 2012 Author Share Posted May 3, 2012 Ah sorry man, I'm told that Testflight does not support jailbroken devices. To everyone else: if you've played the game, please remember to do the little follow-up survey! It's very important to us in order to gather feedback.

jmr Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 JMR, can you reproduce this bug 100% of the time? Does it always crash/not run like that? Happens consistently. I tried powercycling the phone to see if it improved it, no change. I'm trying removing the game and re-installing it to see if it makes any difference. Also, I'm running a stock 5.1 install, since i forgot to mention that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jandalf Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Ah sorry man, I'm told that Testflight does not support jailbroken devices. It's good then that I just got my spare iPod Touch 4G back from a friend... I'll try to test with that device instead. Cheers, NinjaN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
