About 3 months ago I decided to go independent and make my own games, rather than programming away on other peoples. Today the fruits of my labour was finally released.
Here's some video:
Now I just have to hope it sells well enough that I can carry on doing this and not have to go back to contracting

ADMIN! We got another spammer!
Congrats Mr J. It looks like a lot of fun, one of those maddening yet addictive games you can't put down.
Good luck with it.

That's real cute. Am I seeing that right? It looks to me as if a chameleon is using its tongue to jump around in space. Where did you get the cool sounds? And the artwork is exceedingly good as well. GL

Aye, he swings off stuff with his tongue. The sounds are all from soundsnap.com, and my brother did all the art.

Love It!
I downloaded it onto my iPad.
It is addictive and I love the purple critter.
I'm doing ok on distance but not so good at getting the coins.
I like puzzles that make you think a bit.
I understood the tilting to get him to swing, but not moving the finger to keep him swinging.
We'll see what my grandson thinks of it next time he over.
Great game!

Another happy customer
I just bought your game... my first impression is:
Its a little difficult at first, but that's a good thing because I'll hafta play it more to get good at it. I find my hands block my view of the guy though, so I'm having hitting the spots I want to swing from while also keeping an eye on where he's at.
But it is pretty fun and the distance mode is a great feature. I haven't rated it yet, and I wanna play more first, but I'm thinking I'd give it a 4/5... although I could just give you a 5/5 so it looks better
How much help did you have in making the game?
Have you sold many? Are you making any money off it?
ABE:
So I've played it more and I did get a lot better! And now I like it more... Still though, my hand gets in the way.
Another thing, even in the no-sound mode on my iPhone (that little switch you move over), your game still makes sounds

Re: Another happy customer
Since I'm right handed I had trouble seeing what was ahead of the critter, but just tried it left handed and it worked better.
I made it to 680i and actually got a few coins.
Gives my left hand a work out.
It is a cute game.
