The game looks awesome. Reminds me of my mini RC cars I use to race against my cousin
Anybody played it yet? Impressions?
I know that it has good graphics and all but with out any type of multiplayer I just can't see me paying 8 bucks for it
Looks cool but not sure its $8 cool.

Just made the plunge, overall the graphics are nice, the game plays smooth, the only thing to get used to are the controls, you use your thumb in front of the car to street and accelerate/decelerate. Overall I enjoy it and now am looking forward to riptide gp and galaxy on fire 2.

I purchased and then uninstalled within 15 mins as I don't like the way you control it, was using a stylus which was better than using a finger but would have preferred an alternative choice for control.

Yes, got confirmation email from Google to advise that my order has been cancelled and I have not been charged. If you plan to do the same, make sure you cancel within 15 mins and also if you download after refunding once, it will not let you cancel again.

Tell you the truth I've never even purchase an app from android market before. Mainly some of them I want to see how it's like before I buy it. I know they're mostly cheap, but still would like a demo. I wouldn't pay for most games since my psp and ps3 is for that, but some useful apps I would pay for. I didn't know they have this 15 minutes return policy. Does it work for all apps? most? I might try it, but 15 minutes is not a lot of time to try out software. They should make it 30 minutes.
For 8 bucks it should have sone kind of multiplayer, so imma pass on this one

Yes i agree 15 mins is rubbish if you truly want to try software that has a lot of features, it used to be 24 hrs but was changed by Google after complaints from developers as far as know. The main thing is that we still have an option to cancel.
Who knows, the game may have been ok if I played it longer and became acquainted with the controls but I was not willing to pay £5 and on top of that they added VAT which I don't think used to be the case because I remember only paying the price that the market showed.
They should of made it like reckless racing which has many different methods of control.
think this has great potential but i agree with the majority, the controls really need different method options, the one you have to use sucks
Reckless racing has HD graphics and cross platform multiplayer with iPhone. The start screen isn't HD but the actual game is. And the price for the game is FTW
So the Reckless Racing Play is the HD version? Does it work well on the Transformer?
I sent an email to the developers of Bang Bang Racing about the control scheme. They replied indicating that an update with different control schemes would be available soon.
My review and comparison to Reckless Racing
I have played reckless racing, and now this. I am a big fan of racing games, especially top down racing games. Both reckless racing and bang bang racing lack a lot of depth and features to make them amazing. I'll abbreviate each game with BB and RR
1. Controls. BB uses a very unique control scheme. You point in the direction you want to go, and the farther the distance your finger is from your car, the faster you go. This takes some getting used to, but ultimately is a very fun way to play. The biggest downside of the control scheme is that since you always have your finger in front of the car, you are constantly blocking some of the screen in front of you. RR on the other hand has multiple control options, but not all of them are optimized for tablet use. There are standard controls with the left/right buttons on the left. There's tank controls with a left button on the left side of the screen and right on the right side. Also, there are some tilt control and analog type steering wheel controls that don't as well. The physics of the controls are also very different. In BB, you have a lot more grip over your car, and in RR, there is a lot of drifting and skidding making it much more challenging to make the turns correctly.
2. Graphics. Both games look very good on the transformer's screen. Bang Bang Racing is a lot more colorful and cartoony, and Reckless Racing is a little more gritty and offers more texture and detail to the terrain.
3. Presentation. This doesn't matter that much, but I just wanted to complain that the menu system in BB is very annoying. You have to select an option and then press next for everything you do (unnecessary two button presses to advance each menu). Also, there is no way to restart a race when you are in the middle of racing. You have to exit back to the main menu and do the whole 2 button press menu to start over. RR menu system is much much better. BB also lacks an on screen map while playing to help see what the next turn is.
4. Gameplay. BB has 3 ways to play. Single Race, Championship, and Time Trial. RR has the same, but is missing the Championship mode where you compete in multiple races in a row trying to become the overall winner. RR does have a delivery mode kinda like crazy taxi where you pick up some stuff and deliver it. This is a good idea, but there is only one map, and it isn't very big, so there aren't a whole lot of different deliveries you can make. It would be a great idea if there was a huge map, or maybe multiple maps.
Once you're playing, there really isn't a whole lot of difference between the two. You race around the track, and try to place first. BB offers a few things like barrels and cones you can run into, but do very little to affect the race. Both games have a few minor shortcuts that you can take advantage of. BB also has a damage meter, and the ability to fix your car by driving through repair icons. The damage concept is a good idea, but I have never have completely damaged my car. You don’t even need to slow down to recharge your damage meter. RR has some areas of the track where you can fall off, and your car will reset. You also have an option of resetting manually if you get jacked up. BB offers no reset option, which is kinda unfortunate because it is easy to get completely screwed at the beginning of the race in a traffic jam.
RR offers multiplayer across android and iphone. BB offers no multiplayer, but maybe they will add it in a future update?
Both games offer different cars to play with. In RR, it's only the appearance of the car that changes. In BB racing, the different cars have speed and grip ratings to make them different.
Tracks. Overall, I like the tracks in BB better than RR. I think RR has 7 tracks (originally 5, but updates have added 2 more), and you can go in reverse for a total of 14. Some of the RR tracks are very short though. BB has 8, and can go reverse for 16. All 8 of the tracks are approximately the same size. I prefer the track design in BB better. It offers a lot more twists and turns, and they are all very good lengths.
Overall, both games are good. I like to play both of them for different reasons. RR's drifting and sliding controls offer a completely different feel, and can be frustrating to newcomers. BB has a better standard steering experience, but the controls can be very awkward for a lot of people. Obviously the price of RR is better if you only want one.
What these games need. I really wish these games would offer a little more depth in the game play. Some things that would be cool to see in a future top down racing game are: power-ups and items, required pit stops for damage and or gas, more car variation with armor and acceleration categories, and maybe even a 2 player split screen multiplayer like how fruit ninja hd did.
With regard to Reckless Racing, the controls are completely customizable so you can change the placement and size of all the on-screen buttons. Bearing that in mind, RR is infinitely better than BBR when it comes to controls.

Ah, you are right. I thought you could only change the size of the button area. You can actually move the buttons as well.

Hey guys, just downloaded this game while it was on sale and it appears to be a fantastic game plagued with a bunch of terrible bugs. For one, the game cannot be quit by traditional means much like Lode Runner and every time I've booted the game since there have been issues such as all white screen, incredibly bugged textures to the point that you can't even see ground enemies, etc. The game itself even when working is very poorly optimized with the circle button taking you back and no fire button with only auto-fire available. I never owned an Amiga and this is my first time with the game; certain elements of it seem very neat like the persistent world aspect and the old-school shooter vibe feels great if you need a danmaku break but I really can't recommend it in such a poor state. Anyways, the idea of the thread is to warn people more than to provide a review of the gameplay but please by all means stay away for the time being and if the issues ever get fixed I'll let everyone know.
It all appears fixed in the last update and I have managed to beat the game and play through it a number of times just to ensure everything is ship-shape. I really love the game and would recommend it highly now.

Pretty cool, but you really need to add deadzone to the dpad, its super hard to aim. Unless thats intended of course.

Thank you, i am glad you liked it
Mmmm...on what device have you tried it? cause the aiming pad should have a small deadzone actually....on my xperia arcS it seemed big enough for a good aiming (considering the pad itself is independent of resolution it should be as big as it was on my phone anyway......the problem now is understanding if it is too small generally speaking even though it seemed enough to me or if is some kind of bug).

i'll take another look at the code to see if there is something wrong maybe in there.....have you tried lowering the sensitivity settings in the main menu? maybe it is just too fast moving for you....i added that slider to try to suit everyone's gamestyle....but probably you already tried it
Good looking game with a lot of potential. If you want my opinion I think you should make the controls at least twice as big, it was tough to get my finger onto the right spot when playing (on a Galaxy s5). Also I think you should either reconsider your fonts to something a little simpler or at least add a stroke (border) to all of your text, especially on buttons. As it is, it's tough for me to read it in a lot of parts.
Edit: Also in general I think you should brighten the lighting and make the shadows less opaque.

Thank you for your suggestions, i'll think about them for sure....you're the second person telling me the font is not too clear....i liked it, but if it is difficult to read i will simply swap it for something else.
On the dimensions of the controls i am not too sure to increase them too much...i tested a pair of other fps style games and they had similar dimensions it seemed to me....i can enlarge them a bit maybe but i think twice is too much
Awesome game! I love the idea it definitely has potential did you do this by your self?? And how long did it take you or your team? Overall the game is smooth and fun but I agree with the controls I think they need to be re calibrated they are a little bit wonky on my Note 3. As for the font issue I don't really mind it i'm not too picky about fonts xD
Keep up the good work!

thank you for your words guys, i really appreciate them
I worked on the game all by myself and it took around 2-3 months to complete....spread the words to your friends if you can, i could really use some more downloads to get noticed since we all know this is a key point in having success in the market
I'll look at the controls and increase the dead zone a bit then if it seems to be a common problem, probably it means that i am the strange one finding them good as they are

Version 1.10 is out:

-bug fixes: fixed a bug causing an incorrect visualization of some enemy model
Hi,
Id like to announce my new game, Magnetic Balls 3D Free
Destroy all of the balls by arranging them in groups of the same color. If you group at least 3 balls it will cause them to explode and number of balls will be reduced. Tap the screen to throw new ball. Throw them smart to group them by colors.
Balls are attracting each other with magnetic force, are affected by gravity and bouncing force. Level is won when you destroy all of the balls. You will lose when there are too many balls in game. Watch game bar at the top of the screen. If it reach 100% you loose.

Thanks. New version 1.0.2 has been released.
Seems interesting, good job!
seems link to be broken!
AA enabling should be great and Shadows: stable feet+4cascades looks nice;
may be graphics configs options could be the solution of quality and efficiency.
