    Hello fellow buildboxers,

    I am proud to announce my second Buildbox game "Arrow Glide".
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/arrow-glide/id1166418850?mt=8
    The game is simple yet challenging. Tap to change the arrow's direction and make it through as many obstacles as you can!

    The highest Arrow Glide made it on the charts was #60 on Adventure. Now we're off the list but it was pretty cool to see it up there! IMG_2041.PNG

    well done, nice game too. pretty hard but good.
    Also on your background set tile offset to -1, that will get rid of the line where your back ground is joining. or since it is a plain color background set background speed to zero.

    Would be awesome if you could share some secrets with us on how to promote and use social media. Please?

    Thank you, I've been trying to figure out what that was for quite a while now!

    I contacted some popular social media accounts and had them promote the game, of course not for free. I spent a good amount of coin to get it up to #60 on Adventure. Some promoters are charging $800+ for a simple tweet. It's rough out there but hopefully one day hard work will pay off.
