    Congrats on the feature! Game idea and concept is brilliant a long with the visuals. Also loving the zen like atmosphere, the 0 gravity and zen like atmospheres go hand in hand

    Thanks for all the support everyone, this is such a great community!

    Hit around 50,000 ios install, and ~3600 Google play installs so far-- the game is yet to be beat (which I get a slight sadistic satisfaction from), though people are getting closer.

    My feature ended Thursday, so likely things will drop off now. But it was a decent run, and more than I could have hoped for.

    Nice graphics. The art style fits the game play.

    Just as everyone here has cloned everything. From platformers to bounce games...i mean....BB presets themselves are clones. Seeing as how BB is limited in what you can make. My game Tundra is a bounce up game just like Color Switch...without the color switching. Is it a clone? YES! Because you can only make x types of games within BB. BB is basically a clone maker. Look on game showcase on bb site....tons of Impossible style clones. Nearly every isometric game is a clone. All flappy style games made with BB are clones. Once someone figures out a new way to use BB, it will NEVER be the only game like it. Everyone will make that style of game.
    I even remade Force Escape....granted i credited @brouleau [http://buildbox.com/forum/index.php?threads/ship-defender-force.12093/] but still....there is not a single game you can make with BB that is NOT a clone of something that has already been done. Even if Force Escape is the first game ever like it, it now becomes a new game type and will be remade over and over forever.

    I disagree. I think that even with Buildbox we can create new games that are not clones of others.
    You just need creativity. :)

    Sure sure....theres a few small tweaks you can do. Buuuttt nearly every featured game is a clone. Nearly every game in showcase on BB site....nearly all apple featured games that where made with bb. Of course you can come up with something unique...here and there. Force Escape did it. Ive done it a bunch of times. But its very small in numbers. Thats why BB offers presets that are clones themselves. In the end, out of all games that have ever been made with BB....only less than 5-10% are unique. Rest are clones.

    Broleau has gone with Homa Games to publish Force Escape.

    How's it working?
