Wow lots of downloads :) Thanks guys!

The free version is just short of the 10,000 mark. If you haven't already tried it please do, and leave a comment!

Thanks for all the support! Walkabout crossed the 10k downloads mark, and is on its way to the 15k mark :)

Try it if you haven't already - the free version has plenty of levels!

Guys i need your help!

There seems to be a weird bug for some people where the game freezes after the first level. If you clear data or reinstall it works fine. If ANYONE has this error, PLEASE PLEASE don't reinstall and get me a logcat. I would be eternally grateful!

This happens in the Lite and Paid, but is very rare.


@sugardeath: LostGarden is credited in the end credits in the Lite and Paid versions. I spoke to Danc before release to let him know :) I have a game menu in the works and the credits will be moved there for proper visibility.

Initially its been a scramble to add compatibility and fix bugs before it became popular :) The menu took a back seat on my todo list. But now its been featured and has become very popular I may just add a 'credits' tab similar to the volume one on the top left of the tite screen, as the settings screen relies on listing some new features I haven't finished yet!

Walkabout works great on it, and at this res it looks amazing (ok i'm biased but seriously)

Hey guys,

Just wanted to let you know the full version of Walkabout is now FREE on get jar for a limited time. Go grab it now! No registration or personal info needs to be entered, there's no ads or any other funny business, just point your phone/tablet here:

http://getjar.com/Walkabout

In case you don't know about getjar, its one of the oldest app stores, and the biggest free app store in the world. They're offering select apps for free. There's some very big names there too ilke Gamelion (Doodle Fit), Konami’s (Krazy Kart Racing), Imperio, Handy Games ‘Guns ‘n’ Glory, Herocraft’s ‘Farm Frenzy’ and TouchType’s ‘SwiftKey X’.

http://www.getjar.com/about/pressre...th-of-free-apps-as-its-gold-program-explodes/

From a developer perspective they pay me a small amount per download. So please go check it out, its free for you, and every download generates me a small amount of money to work on my next indie game (even if you don't like it and uninstall it!) :)

Kam

PS. ignore the '0 downloads' stats there, it only just came out and those stats won't update till tomorrow!

    Hey guys.

    I just made my first android game. Its called walkabout - the idea is to collect all the stars on each level, but as you walk the path beneath you disappears. You need to think about your route or you'll be stranded!

    The market link is:

    https://market.android.com/details?id=com.base2.walkaboutdemo

    Or you can search 'walkabout' in the market.

    Full version is here:

    https://market.android.com/details?id=com.base2.walkaboutb

    I spent nearly a week getting it working well for older phones like Hero, Galaxy i7500, behold. I hope you like it. Comment and ratting appreciated. I have no money for advertising :(

    Great! Please do try the demo first in case there's a compatibility problem with your specific phone. I've tested it on a lot of phones now so I hope its all ok.

    But even if there is an issue please let me know and i'll fix it ASAP!
