I need for beta testers for a scrabble like Windows Phone 8 game

[Ivan Crojach Karacic]

Hey guys!

I have developed a scrabble like WP8 game and would like to test it out in the wild before I release it to the public. You could help me by downloading the app while it is still in beta. Just send me your MS account you have on your device and within the next few days you can expect to get an email with a download link

Thanks!

Edit:
Just to convince you I am not someone who wants to steal your ID and do some damage, you can check the apps I have built by searching for "Crojach" or "Ivan Karacic" in the Windows Phone store. Also "Emoji world" (all versions) are my work (freelancer job)

Just a tip, I think more people should be interested if you tell more about the game, and maybe post some screenshots :wink:

Was a bit in a hurry so couldn't post much.

In essence the players are presented with a grid of 8x8 letters. Two players play in turn by swapping two letters and getting points for completed words (per turn you get points for the word which give you the most points). The player with the highest number of points wins the game.

There are three ways to end the game:
- A certain number of points is reached by one of the players
- A certain number of words has been created (by both players combined)
- A certain amount of time has passed (up to 9 minutes at the moment)

As said, the player with the highest score wins. Here is also a screenshot

Thanks to some awesome feedback the app is getting better and better

Instead of awarding you with only the highest score you now get points for every word you create with a single swap.

This is how it looks like now


If someone else wants to join there is more room for you guys to help me get this app be as good as possible before launch. Just send me an PM or comment directly here or send me an email with your MS LiveID to wp.developer@ymail.com

Are you able to play against an AI opponent? Can the 2nd player be another person on another phone etc?
I could test it, but it means I would have to play with myself, lol

EDIT: I've pm'd you.

 

[Ivan Crojach Karacic]

At the momment you will have to share your phone with another person to play a game but true multiplayer is on the way (but will probably not be in the first release). Also a single player mode is in the works where you have to score a certain amount of points to pass to the next level...

Everyone is bored from such games, and they fill the store. Try something different. Like a totally new idea, example: a human game, where in some levels you have to move food through veins, other you have to maintain the body temperature, others play with the senses (i dont know how). Something like this. Btw that's a great Idea that I think I should keep to my self lol, but I'm no developer soo.

This is my first game so I start out basic. We have planed to "dive deeper" into the body systems but encountered problems with white blood cells which attacked our probes after the have been implanted. Until we solve this problem you can have a go with the game I try to promote

hehe sorry for the negativity, but seriously you just described a fun game I don't know if its available for other platforms hahaha send me a link I would be happy to test your game out.

Another update coming towards you guys. I have added a single player mode now. You can compete against the clock to reach as many levels as you can. At the moment it increases by a factor which increases the difficulty but I plan to enable "combos" for multiple created words with one "wiggle" as well as completing words in subsequent "wiggles".

Hope you like the update!

N.B. the update will go live within the next two hours and then it might take some more time for you to be notified. If you want to speed the process up just regularly follow the link I sent you over the email

Let me know if you find something!

 

[Ivan Crojach Karacic]

The beta phase is over and I want to thank everyone helping me to improve the game. I will let you know when the app hits the market so that you can grab a free copy of it after which the app will be a paid one (collecting money for a server to host online multiplayer).

Thanks again guys and I hope the next game will be a success in beta participants as well

need tester ?

 

[Ivan Crojach Karacic]

Hello again,

Wiggle is now in the store and I just want to let you know you can download it on the link below:
Wiggle | Windows Phone Apps+Games Store (United States)

It's been fun making it and I will do my best to make it even better.
It will be free for a limited time (only for the next few "Christmas" days) so grab it as quick as you can so that you will enjoy multiplayer when it goes live next month hopefully for free.

Thanks to all beta testers for downloading it and playing with it.

Happy Christmas,
Ivan
