Taxi Taxi - My first iPhone game now on sale :)

[Qube]

Available to buy here - http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/taxi-taxi/id339657252?mt=8




Fed up never getting a cab?  Can't flag one down when you want?! Well, stop complaining and see how hard commanding a fleet of taxis is!

Work the shopping mall, pick up the customers, contain your road rage, and make the $$$$ to win the game!

But be careful. If you crash your taxis or bump a pedestrian, you're fired!

The think quick, act quicker game from PuzzleBox Games. From now on you'll love your taxi driver!

Move your taxis into their parking slots and pick up your fares.  Be quick as the mall is busy and people need taxis all the time! So don't stop hustling for fares or your taxis are going to crash into each other & the game is over!

Oh, and mind the pedestrians, they don't know any better, but they don't want to be bumped but if they are then you'll lose the game!

Strap in and keep hold of your road rage!



See it in action...

Hey, that looks great. Now that people start pushing great games for the iPhone, I think I should extend the showroom to view App Store games as well...

WOW....this game looks awesome. Well done!!!

I have just seen the video on youtube. This is another VERY fine example of how good GLBASIC is at making iPhone games.

Good job, Qube!

I am glad to see Blitzers finally discovering GLBasic.

Thanks all  - I'm quite pleased with it for a first game.

Even managed to get a review on 148apps.com : http://www.148apps.com/reviews/taxi-taxi/

They gave it 3.5 stars out of 5. Mainly because of the small pause and fast forward buttons. However they did give it 4.5 out of 5 for gameplay and 5 out of 5 for replay value (the important things). Very happy with that 

I will be doing an update in the new year to fix the couple of points raised and also to change over to my new swishy sprite and animation routines. Taxi Taxi's graphics are all drawimage based but everything in the new game I'm doing is all between one startpoly an endpoly - zero breaks for sprites, animation, scaling and rotation (1024x1024 sprite sheets) 

Polyvector is my fave command

You are extremely lucky. Usually they only review apps if you pay for advertising. 

[Kitty Hello]

how much did it do?

[codegit]

Yeah, did you see a vast improvement on sales? (Note: I'm not asking for details just whether it helped or not) tks
