[Closed] Coming soon - The Circus Masters Revenge

heard your anchor podcast and keep up the good work:)

Hello. I'm very happy and excited that you are making a game like this. There are not too many games on the Appstore like the one you and your team are making. If you want blind users to test this app, you can use a app that Apple made called Testflight. Also, have you considered making the game cross platform? Thank you so much and hope everything goes well for you. :-)

Lol. didn't ya state that you were going to launch the game in 8 weeks, like, 2 weeks ago? Lol. Hehehehehehe! It's all good. Take all the time you need. I'm sure it's going to be kick ass when launched!

Any idea on a release date?

I agree that it would be nice to know the release date by now.

A podcast is all well and good, but there are some people (myself included) who would rather just look here on the forum for a release date.

I didn't register on apple vis just to end up on Spotify lol.

For the people who didn’t listen to the podcast, if everything goes as planned they will submit to Apple for approval on July 11. Then, by July 16 it should be on the App Store.

Should be just in time for my birthday which is on the 23rd.

any sneak peek for the game will be fantastic...
I am looking forward to it though

Hello. Just wanted to know whats the cost of this game.

Hey! I loved the podcast. I hope I could play this game soon. I can't wait.

Hello,
With all respect for the time and effort you are putting into making those Podcasts: Could you please just answer the questions in writing? Some of us do not have the time to listen to hours of audio. I personally dislike most podcasts (so much Blah Blah in them...)
@Maxi asked about the cost.
You send her a link to an episode which is more than AN HOUR long!
Not sure if I am making myself clear here. By all means: Keep making podcasts, but please don‘t expect us all to listen through all of them.

I have to agree, its a good way to alienate potential players by just saying listen to my podcast and a good way to seek attention. the time taken to write such a message could have been spent just answering a question directly. I must admit I am getting board of all the hype surrounding this game, over 500 comments, and I just have a feeling being honest at best this game will be a 5 minute wonder, but once completed there won't be incentive for people to keep replaying it or for updates to keep coming out. anyway its supposedly only a week till the game goes live so not long for people to wait. I wonder if maybe adverts are displayed when the podcast is downloaded which maybe some sort of payment is made for when they are displayed and that's why the developer is directing us to podcasts and other media.
Its great he's passionate, but I just don't think there is any way the game will live up to the hype and be as amazing as everyone is hoping for.

The game will cost about 3 or so dollars. Could be a little more or less, but around that price range

Really guys? He's making podcasts for a good reason. I understand that you don't have time to listen to audio for a long time, however seriously? You can't just listen to a podcast just to get the answer..

To the commenter who thinks that the game will not "live up to its potential", wow. Why would you be bashing such a creative developer???

I’m curious to see what they will do differently from audio defense. I was a beta tester and I saw some stuff in the shop that was definitely not in the audio defense shop.

I have been anticipating the release of this game for a very long time. I didn't beta test but I will be purchasing the game once it's on the app store. There are certain game genres which don't appeal to me but I don't believe in bashing the developers just because their games don't appeal to me. Honestly, these people who continually criticise should think about developing their own games. Give me a shooting/arcade game and the occasional puzzle game and I'm happy.

to be clear I am not at all bashing the developer having any new game is great.
what I was meaning with my comment was that people need to have some perspective, its great we are going to have a new game of course it is. But considering how its been hyped and hyped and hyped by the developer and the fact that its going to be priced at $3 or whatever it was people shouldn't be expecting a seriously detailed game like I don't know heros call or papa sangre. Sure its going to be fun I am sure, but its not going to be like sighted games out there and so on. I mean look at how gold gun really hyped itself up and how that all turned out in the end. though of course the dedication and challenges that have been overcome to get to this point are certainly considerable and I imagine most people would have given up before now.

I for one can’t wait for this game to be out. Trust me, I’ll be up very early on the morning it is released just so I can grab it off the App Store. I know people have said this before, but I just want to put in my two cents. Thank you so much for making this game for us. As someone who did test, I thought it was great. But even before that, I believe it was going to be awesome. It’s different from anything I’ve played before, and oh my Gosh I am so excited!!!!2

I tested it and it was awesome! I can’t wait till the full game comes out!

thanks for your reply. I am certainly not angry, disappointed or anything else you might imagine, it sounds like you don't like anyone even suggesting your game might not be up to all the hype your the one getting sensitive and angry and being unpleasant. I am realistic. I did enjoy audio defence when that was an available game. But unlike a lot of people in this community my life doesn't souly revolve around games. I am approaching cmr with the idea that its going to be very similar to other previous games in terms of mechanics style etc the way it has to be played. then once I buy it I will find out what its actually like. also I must admit the low price is also causing me to keep my expectations under control, as other games are usually much more expensive, and I have generally found the lower priced games tend to not live up to expectations. I am sure you have spent a lot on making this game but I doubt it cost you $50000 or £50000 to make, as if it did there's no way you could break even on it at $3 a sale especially once apple takes there cut. Of course I support new game developers, but considering the quality of most of the stuff out there its rare to find anything that comes along that istruly acceptional hence why I say to everyone don't get carried away thinking your going to have some kind of really epic game that will take you years to complete.anyway not long to go now, then everyone can make up there own minds not just the testers. although I am approaching cmr with an open mind and uninfluenced by adverts or hype, and its great someone is making a game I am not someone who thinks that an accessible game diserves automatic praise, if its great then of course yes it does, but what it deserves is honesty both good and bad. But I do fully intend to buy this game and see if the hype and over 500 comments has been worth the wait. as I have said before I fully support that you are creating a game, many people would have given up ages ago and not stuck with it like you have. I am looking forward to giving honest comments based on honest impressions. Your certainly right that blind people are the best to judge what they will enjoy playing, what makes for great accessibility and a great game though, and it is truly acceptional to find someone who is blind looking to create a game especially in the ios space so I am of course supporting you though.

I'm in agreement with Alex, I think. I certainly won't bash the dev, but i do wonder how well this games novelty will last after it's been downloaded a fair few times. Some may find replay value in it. others won't.

Also in regards to the podcasts, I will also agree that not everyone has the time or inclination to listen to hours of audio. If I ask a question on a forum, I don't need an hour long discourse on the subject of my question. A simple answer will suffice.

... is in the eating. Joseppie, you are a man with a dream. Don't get defensive. Rather, make your dream a reality so we can know it for what it really is. Rather than talking about it, sublimate your hunger for attention and do it! Do it with all your passion! The doing is what requires your energy. It is all right if people don't see results for a long time. You do not owe anyone anything. Only by talking too much, and setting unrealistic expectations, do you get yourself in trouble and increase the pressure that rests upon your shoulders. Show, don't tell! And in the end, if you made your dream come true and everyone loves it, the attention will be an added bonus. But if nobody likes it, you will still have made your dream come true, and that in itself will make you a very happy person!
If you are thinking about replying right now, don't. Put that energy into your project.
Cheers Perry

Hi.

Hmm, I honestly don't know what to think. Surely, a new game which sticks out of the shit pile we have for iOS nowadays excluding some of the more intrikit games, I have the distinct feeling that the preaching done by the developer are all big show and words to mask the ccontent of a possible, and I say possible small game. I learned long ago that hype is good on one hand, on the other it's always good to keep a sceptical look on things and not jump onto anything which might like look the next big thing.

To those who bring out their bashing arguments. There is a quite huge differents between bashing a developer and publicly asking questions or critisizing something. What this comunity needs to learn is that we shouldn't take everything what we are offered like a dog to whom you throw a bone. If the blind gaming comunity, especially on applevis would not shout down every kind of critizism if some comes up, we wouldn't be stuck with the unteenth bopit remaster or the crap pile which is blindfold games.
And, the second thing, some of the people need to think before writing and shouting around hey, stopp bashing the dev! I have noone seen bashing the developer here, just asking questions and discussing if the game would be able to reach the bar the developer said for himself.

So, now to the developer. You said when you started the threat that you produced the game for yourself and not the comunity. But now you state that you produce it for the comunity and not yourself. So, what is the truth there?

Also, you are not the first fully blind developer of apps, there have been many of those before you, so you won't get that crown.

How can I be notified when this game comes out I am very interested on playing a game like this

We'll post it here

I was one of the testers for this game and, in my opinion, this game is great. I am very tired of people spilling there negative vives all the time. Complaining for one thing or complaining for another. The point is, it seems as if they can cannot achieve happiness without administrating rations of negativeness into every comment. The truth is, Joseppie, do not feel like you owe anything to the blind community. You owe it to yourself and that's it. If you are happy because you are making your dream come true, that's all that matters.
Lastly, I am very happy for you and I know that Mental Vision will accomplish great things. Keep up the good work, my friend. Do not let that dark clouds cover the sun above you. Always defend your dreams. They are yours and yours alone.
Those people who are complaining already, I dare you to come up with your own games and show us how awesome you are.
Be grateful that somebody is making a game which is different to the cards, numbers, fruits, text games, etc.
I, for one, will be buying this game as soon as it is available in the App Store.
I am here waiting for the awesome games that those Who complain all the time are about to come up with. I will buy your games, too. That is, depending on how perfect they are. LOL.
CMR will be great. It is already great.
Frankly, it makes me laugh when people complain about the price of a game. Whether it is too cheap or too expensive they will always have something negative to say. Come on.
Just keep doing this and, very soon, there will be no developers willing to make games accessible anymore.

Well said
