    Liking the icon, liking the feedback! However, one question you did miss was the introductory sale price. Will there be one, just for one day?
    Thanks

    Can you guys give us a time frame of when you plan to submit? What kind of tournament bugs were you encountering?

    Oh, and how will the practice mode be different from the exhibition mode? Practice shooting, like a tutorial mode? Can't wait for the shoot out mode!

    EDIT: Is there going to be online leaderboards? Openfeint? Any social network implemented yet (Or will it be added in an update?)

    Thanks for the update!,

    :eek: Thanks! I try my best to help everyone, and keeping clean too. Keeping it clean being like stating my opinion, but not making anyone angry...don't want to start fights around here!

    While I realize lots of people have specifics they want to know about the game re: submission, release date, etc., I'm the sure developers are hard at work on the game and making it as good as they can.

    Personally, I would rather them take the extra time to make it all it can be. I'm happy to wait an extra week or two to play it if it means it's going to be that much better and enjoyable to play.

    I also hope they take as much time as needed because I'm a fan of hockey and want to see this game succeed. Releasing a great game at launch can create lots of positive buzz and word-of-mouth - synergies that are unlikely to happen if the game is lackluster to begin with and is improved through updates down the road.

    To the developer - I'm anxiously awaiting this game, but please don't rush it just to appease a few impatient people. Fans of this game will thank you for sticking true in the end!

    Little disappointed about the lack of customization, but as long as the core gameplay is done right I'll be happy. Still planning on buying it, hopefully it will be out soon.
     
  12. Hi

    The idea of the promocodes is to say thanks for the feedback pre-release. We will base it on quality of feedback and interaction in this thread. We'll contact you once we release to arrange a promocode (US) or paypal (rest of the world). Hope this clears that up?

    cheers

    idk if anyone asked this but the puck seems to travel a bit fast in the video is it gonna be that fast on release or will it just take a little time to be able to intercept the puck and such? ok i just watched the video again sometimes it looks like the puck is perfect fastness but other times it looks like you pass it and boom its on the teamates stick like time travel

    controls seem pretty good, but is it normal for the puck to go so fast? never played 'proper' ice hockey
    otherwise looks pretty cool! seems really smooth

    I thought the puck was moving a bit too fast at first too, but after watching the video again, it seems to be moving at around the right speed.

    OK I really like the video, looks like a very fun game that will play well on the iPhone platform. The animations are awesome, the celebrations will add to the realism and give it the hockey feel. I don't feel the puck is moving too fast, but that's just my opinion.

    I'm really excited about tournament mode, tournaments will add a lot of depth and fun, I'm going to enjoy beating the Russians :p
