- Hi all, so heres my game for the PlayBook, its a plane throwing game, which shows you your distance thrown, also you get stats such as total distance covered, average throw distance and total of planes thrown.
Initally its a single level game, however we are finalising some more levels as i type, additional levels are available to download inside the game itself (no appworld update required) and are apx .5Mb to 1Mb in size per level.
i have put up a little video of it (on simulator as i dont have a playbook yet) on youtube which can be viewed here
its is currently available in Appworld for $0.99

- Hey, you should upload an updated video to YouTube (etc..) of Paper Plane in action now that the PlayBook is released! . I hope to be getting one (very) soon and wanna see you're game in action on a real device (vs on the Simulator). Some good demo vids #JustSaying
Also, heard on Twitter that the RIM crew (or anyone testing/using "review units") had thrown over 100,000 paper planes before release day! That's awesome haha! Are there Leader Boards for distance thrown, how many planes thrown (etc..)?

Alright, bringing the subject back to this thread, I do see you have a video of your game running on the Simulator, but I was hoping for some vid's of it running on an actual device! But, you kinda answered that question by saying it'll be a week or more before you get one too! No biggie.
Also, the Leader Boards feature I mentioned. I get that there are in game leader boards for yourself and the planes we would throw, but my question is are there ONLINE Leader Boards where we (the user) are able to see how far OTHER people have thrown planes? If not, that would be a cool feature
Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com04-21-11 06:54 PMLike 0 - It's gonna be a week or so more for me too unfortunately! A lot of people are saying to wait and blah blah, but to me that's all it is...BLAH! I'm a BlackBerry Enthusiast and I wanna be there thru the PlayBook growth and developement process! That's something I wanna be a part of for sure!

as for a vid of it on the playbook of course if i could i would, i know for a fact it runs smoothly as people in RIM were playing it, and a few people have commented as such since release too, as for the online leaderboard, yes, thats why in the video i click the `view rank online` button (0:48 if ya wanna see) and it loads up the browser, it then shows everyones scores and yours is in red to define your score
there are popup annotations on the youtube video, however these dont show on mobile devices for some reason04-22-11 06:00 AMLike 0 -
as for the scores, the early release (pre-pb launch) had a slight glitch, its fixed now but people who dont update their total still shows no ttheir score, sevrer runs a cleanup script twice a day to tidy it up04-22-11 04:57 PMLike 0 -

for those who dont have the game, iv made an online page to view, works decent in OS6 browser too
PaperPlane Online scores - note, if you go in through the game your throw details are shown in red so you can see where you are ranked, if you go through this generic link that wont be the case.04-22-11 06:46 PMLike 0 - Wow, someone got 168.48m !
How is that possible?
BTW, for your next version a fun feature to consider would be to have the ability to turn on "messy mode" where all your previous attempts are scattered on the floor :-)Last edited by InfinitiGuy; 04-23-11 at 10:34 AM.

also wanna say major thanks to crackberry kevin for pointing out how the bug was occuring04-23-11 10:38 AMLike 0 - Did I mention that I can't wait until I get a BlackBerry Playbook!!
Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com04-24-11 09:59 PMLike 0 - I bought it but it's already pissed me off.
I really suck at it. I can't get beyond 4 metres.
edit: I tried it again and used the flip technique... I'm #192!
This game is stupidly addictive once you get past the learning curve. Good job with the game!Last edited by galuple; 04-25-11 at 02:24 AM.

i'm currently in the number 1 spot with a 149.6 meter flight. it's great being in the #1 spot....but it's def not accurate lol.
PM me and i'll give you more details as to what happened so you can sort it out. dont wanna release what happened here so others do it!04-26-11 06:52 AMLike 0 - just wanted tolet you know there's some sort of scoring glitch that needs to be worked out.
