    I wasn't going to buy it cause it looks like a simple platformer with a twist. Was I right? I don't know haven't bought and played it. I am taking the dive because of the sheer depth the beginning story had. Your tutor was a wise man and obviously has inside look into the past

    Nice find! And a great game! I only wonder how the Total Worst can be greater than the Total Best :confused:

    Dear Pantsjo,
    Good question!
    Finnaly, Someone ask me about this:)

    Total Worst score is caculated by adding up the worst scores of all levels. Notice, the default worst scores for uncompleted (or unreleased) level is 1106 (not zero), thile the level capacity for the game is designed to be 100 (50 currently avaiable, and 50 more in the future updates). So the Total Worst score should equal to:

    SUM(worst scores of completed levels) + 1106* Count of uncompleted levels + 1106 * 50 (Count of unreleased levels)

    Why? Because if the default worst score is set to be zero, players who leave levels uncompleted would take advatage on the lead board of Total Worst.

    Hope this could eliminate your confusion.

    Sincerely,
    Yang-z

    Good job, by@n!
    That's really surprising!
    I did plan to design a shortcut for level 9, but I thought it was impossible.
    Fantastic finding.

    Hi anabolicMike,

    It's my pleasure to have your comment.
    Thank you for sharing your feeling about this game. You know what, the most fun part of this kind of game is to try every possible path to achieve higher and higher scores. Some path may seem impossible. Some hiden tricks may help a lot. And Even fine-tuning could result in huge improvement.
    It takes time to discover better routes, and new records are always heart-stirring.
    That's my point of view.

    BTW, my tutor would like to say thank you.:)

    Thanks.

    Digging the art style. Cool theme also, using Newton.

    See you soon.:)

    The second update (v1.0.2) is coming.

    The second update (v1.0.2) has been completed.
    It would be avaiable in a few days.

    What's new in v1.0.2:
    -Arrow dragging mechanism has been re-written. Now it targets more precisely the arrow you want to drag.
    -Touch-sensitive area of Arrow is doubled.
    -Touch-sensitive area for launching or reseting is increased.
    -Score rolls more efficiently.
    -The issue of losing settings data has been fixed.

    Thanks Yang-z, that makes sense (I think Newton would agree ;)).

    With all those expert catters playing, I don't like my chances on the Total Best leaderboard, so I decided to completely focus on the Total Worst leaderboard :D

    LOL I had that same idea, also anticipating the arrival of the real catters, but you are better than me at being the Worst :D

    Saosijs, are you a catter too? What's your name on the leaderboard?
    And congrats with several top scores in Newton!

    According to the icon, I think 'Saosijs' is 'Dirk van der Sijs' on the leaderboard:)
