    I finally made a progress with an icon. I have three versions ready and it would be great to know which you like the most. Let's call them from left to right 1 and 2, the last below 3.

    I'd vote for 1. 3 doesn't really fit and 2 doesn't show the octagon. 1 best represents the gameplay and visual style IMO
     
  5. I like number 3.

    Looking forward to this game, love duet game and super hexagon like games.

    I like number 1, but still needs a little bit of work :)

    This reminds me strongly of Boson X, but with its own unique share of obstacles and control mechanics.

    Looking forward to its release.

    Oh, and I like the first icon too.

    Hi Exact-Psience, you are right with one thing. First impression of Octagon is Boson X similarity. I started my game on May this year. But I'm lucky, Boson X gameplay is different so much. Thanks for your post.

    You really need to focus hard to finish levels like this one.

    Congrats, Lukas :) I hope your game is compatible with iPad 2 because the latest version of beta keep crashing on my iPad and unplayable. :(

    Looking forward for the release and hope it's compatible with iPad 2

    I changed data model and stopped supporting testers version a few days ago. Don't be afraid, release version 1.0 will be ok for you. It's optimised for iPhone 3gs and iPad 1 with iOS 5.1 and newer.

    Thanks

    Ok, I forgot to email you, but yeah, since the last update (color gradient added), game was constantly crashing, wasn't able to play

    Pivvot, Boson X, Duet, and now this? Awesome! Looking forward to a new take on a behind the back octagon runner since I really enjoyed Boson X
