User Reviews for Sky Dancer: Free Falling

Pretty, but clunky, slow, and awkward

After you finish a run, it takes an inordinate amount of time to start the next run. First it asks if you want to continue, then it zooms you back out, then it leaves you at the main menu, then when you tap to start another run, the animation seems to take forever to get to the point where you’re actually controlling the character again.The devs could take a hint from other games in how fast to start the next run. (Hint: count, in seconds, how long you’re sitting there NOT running in between runs. The ideal would be between 0-1 seconds. Just get me back into the action!I think if the developers had spent as much time on their gameplay as they did on their art, I may have been persuaded to keep the game on my phone. As it is, it has been deleted.

Fantastic

I have played this game religiously ever since it was released. I have some suggestions though. In the old version, there was one game mode where the infinite run got progressively more difficult as your score raised. I think that this still should be an option that maybe starts in normal and then gets harder and harder until it reaches the difficulty of around 1800 ft in insane. I also found a bug in the weekly hunt where if you press the slow-mo button and you die, then you revive yourself, you will have infinite slow-mo power. Also there is a player tip in the loading screen with a grammatical error: “Upgrade YOU power ups to enjoy each fall even more.” I love this game though.

Addictive and beautiful with one flaw

In my prior review (from a year or so ago), I was critical of the excessive ads. It appears they took complaints seriously because paying for an ad-free upgrade is now a thing and very much addressed the problem. There are paid boosts and optional ads, but it no longer feels like pay-to-win or watch-ads-to-win.This game is beautiful, addictive, and it seems like there's always a new odd character to play. It's a lot of fun. It's a unique contribution to the Endless Runner genre.Only complaints:There needs to be a tutorial or at least a "Help" page that describes what some of the terms mean and how you're meant to accomplish them. Terms like "Perfect Grind" aren't self-explanatory and even when you do them accidentally, the notifications are small enough that they're easy to miss - so it's hard to determine how you've done them.Currently, selecting to resurrect your character offers an ad-supported option. This worked for a while but recently it locks the game up about 90% of the time for me, requiring a force quit and relaunch to continue. I suspect it's not connecting with their ad service - but recovery needs to be more gentle. If it can't load, it should probably time out and eventually treat you to a resurrection. At the very least it should return to giving you the option of using stars to resurrect. Currently I'm rarely choosing to resurrect.

I have a hate-love relationship with this game.

This game can be so great and relaxing - the soundtrack never gets old and you never feel pressure.Unless you're slogging through the horribly unfair weekly challenges. You might just barely get past the first chest after using all those free ads and you may still only get some lame power ups instead of the character pieces you're actually there for. And that's IF the free ads work as they should; often it'll leave you stuck in an infinite loading screen and force you to close the game, forgoing any rewarda you may have unlocked earlier in that run.I enjoy the difficulty of the weekly challenge, but I wish it wasn't so much of a grind. We get more puzzle pieces just collecting the regular ones in regular runs for gods' sake! Just make it more enjoyable. Please.

Gorgeous and zen

Great endless runner with different enough gameplay that it's set apart from all the others in the genre, and that's not even counting the graphics. Takes some skill to master but once you do it becomes quite peaceful and relaxing. Challenges and daily rewards give you a reason to keep playing. Would definitely recommend this game.To the devs: Please make the shadows actually follow the light source. Right now, the shadows are always behind you no matter where the sun or moon is. I like that the shadows respond to how the map is situated but that's not how shadows work. Also the sun and moon should not be visible when the map makes a 180° turn. There are several typos that need addressing and please bring back the lore blurbs for the characters. That was a really nice touch.

What happened, I will never know

When this game first came out it was reasonable. The play is not any better than when it belonged to other developers. The scoring system went completely absurd. The dancers cost an obscene amount of money. There is no scoring of stars anymore. Before this game was sold to this band of amateurs one could score coins into the thousands and stars daily into the hundreds. The dancers were buyable as coins equaled cash. Now there is a shard system, each shard costing hours of play and multiple dollars in upgrades and one shard yeah, it takes 100,000 shards at 10,000 coins per shard. An average run only yields about 500 coins. I’ve contacted these people asking where my dancers went years ago when they bought this game and I’ve emailed them several times since then still with nom reply. I have spent a lot of time on this game and money. My purchases have never shown up and I get so frustrated that I am out of energy and just give up and forget about it. It’s not fun when you don’t get any rewards TOPO

Runner's Delight

A very pleasant variation of the classic runner. The environment is minimalist yet very cleanly rendered. I enjoy the day and night shifts during the runs. The music is ethereal and calming which makes it less aggravating when you miss platforms - you almost don't mind at all. The falling sensation is awesome. No jarring crash or splat (which makes the decision to come back and try again that much easier.) The controls or rather touchy when falling - this is definitely for the patient gamer.I do wish one could remain in challenge mode once it has been selected instead of having to return to the start and reengage it.The character costs are rather high and discourage grinding and the lack of variable environments also make it less likely that you'll spend lots of time here trying to accumulate the coins needed to buy the more expensive characters.I also don't see the point of including the "Satan" character - it seems jarringly out of context given such a mellow mood that's being established.Otherwise it's a nice game whether you like a short run or a challenge.

New update gave me my fix

So far, the game is a great art piece with very simple yet fun gameplay. It's visuals are pleasant if not sometimes feeling same-y as you play over and over. Ground play and long falls are pretty perfect and requiring player competence, while short falls that require left or right movement can be the bane of existence due to the sensitivity. I recommend the FREE game, and what they have micro-transactions for are exactly what they should be for, cosmetics. 4.5 out of 5 but that isn't an option. To the devs (if you read this) please consider making map skins. Steam punk, jungle, or even space debris would be spectacular with your art style. Keep doing great work.With the inclusion of relics, my grips have disappeared from my mind while I play. Until I get all the characters and relics, I won't be bored with the game. Keep up the good work.

Fun, but what do I know?

This is a fun game to play. I like the trancy music and the way it feels like I’m really falling and flying through the air. One issue I have, it’s a small thing but enough to make me want to trash the app. If you feel it necessary to have comments such as “you might want make the platform next time” then it would be nice to be able to turn that off in settings. I don’t know where this game was developed so it could be a cultural thing but a lot of people including myself feel it’s insulting to state the obvious, constantly. It’s like being heckled by a stoned, passive aggressive teenager between each round. It would be more to the point if it said “idiot”.And along the same lines, I played the game for the first time for about 20 minutes. I was picking it up and doing pretty well and got one or two long runs in. After those runs I would restart and on the first jump I’m prompted to press the screen with both thumbs to jump... really? The first thing I think is, this game must be calculating and compiling statistics on gameplay comprehension from players all around the globe and it’s just letting me know that my ability to retain the one primary action in this game ranks right around, a potato, or a moron at best. It seems like the game could be really relaxing and meditative but after twenty minutes I was just tense and irritated. Which I’m sure will still linger next time I’m looking for a game to play.

Fantastic

I've played this game more than I've played any other phone game in my life. I am 12th in the world with high score of around 420,000. I think this game is overall amazing. Great art. Great mechanics. Great character design and frequent updates. I really love the new relic system, even more so that the relics stack on each other. Some problems I have are weird bugs at different times. For example sometimes I precise jump and go waaaay further than it should go. Or I can't move left or right. Not often, but frustrating. There are a lot of typos but I don't think the developers are English so it makes sense. I would love to see more characters, more store items to purchase (like revives, coin magnets,etc) and more environments. Otherwise, fantastic game! I wanna be number one in the world! I'm very close!
