Hello everybody, I would like to announce a new game I am working on called Left Turn!
The art is being used as a placeholder and will be changed upon release.
Please leave your comments and suggestions.

Oh, no!
The pixel boss has locked you in his digital world!
Tap the screen to turn left. Collect all of the coins and get to the end! Help The pixel escape by bribing the computer to let him free.

I would really appreciate it if you helped beta test Left Turn! Sign up here: http://bit.ly/13yJ2u2

    Thanks everyone for the interest!
    Left Turn currently has 47 levels and I am planning to launch it when it has 75.

    What do you think of the current level select (Click play and resume where you left off)?
    Should I keep this or add a level select page so you can replay levels without restarting progress from level 1?

    I am considering releasing Left Turn for free and having an iAp after the 15-20th level to continue the game and remove ads ($.99 for no ads and continue).

    Should I go this way, Charge $.99 for the game, have ads with an iAp to remove them or just release the game for free with no ads or iAp?

    @tgdesign I don't know yet. I've had a few people tell me to keep the art as it is. I was thinking of changing it to pixel art or chalkboard style graphics. If you have any suggestions I'm open to hearing them.

    I really like this game idea. It seems simple to pick up and play -- but it will require both timing and problem solving skills. Lots of potential!

    I'm having one of those, "Doh.. I wish I would have thought of that" experiences.

    I hope this game does well for you!

    Do a right turning one!

    @bjandthekatz good luck with it. It looks cool!

    The game mechanic is so simple but it looks crazy addictive, you could be on to a winner here!
