Love it !!
Really enjoying this Game/Sim? I don’t mind the tight views and almost think the author purposly did this to add another degree of dificulty making things that are too easy, a bit harder. I have been through the 27 levels many times now and have mastered all but 1. I have the iPhone version too but the screen is just too small for me and my fat fingers. I like the game on my iMac and hope to see more levels and /or have the editor available for the iMac version.
United StatesViewpoint!!...
This app frustrated me!!! It’s fun and has great potential, but… 1) The viewpoint as you try to manouevre the crane is totally arbitrary and often what you need to see to operate the crane properly is blocked or too far away for any real detail. 2) This app really needs a proper controller to operate it - I was trying to do it from a keyboard and…. Nawwww!!! Not really successful!! That said, I like this app! It’s fun and, with some modifications, it could be really great. The concept is very good - fun, fun, fun!! - so I do hope the developer will spend some time and improve at least the viewpoint aspect. Maybe a split-screen / dual viewpoint approach?? I totally accept that it is up to me to buy a controller if I want to get seriously involved!! But, for free?? Do try it!! It deserves a trial!! 😄
United StatesDoesn’t work.
I started playing this game on my 15inch MacBook Pro 2.0 GHz, and my 13inch MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz and on both of the laptops the game crashed when leaving to go do another application, it caused many problems. It may just be the software we are using but, don’t get until you get new software or a new game update.
United StatesI cant download it…
download is broken
United StatesControls?
I've played this game on mobile before, and it is amazing. It is very fun and there is nothing like it. However, what I do not understand is why the mouse controls replace the reliable buttons. For example, on the first level, you need to be slow and steady to make it into the parking space. Using the mouse provides no deadzone so that you could easily stop and breathe. This problem is pretty much seen on any of the other levels. Mr. Stolk, please add an option to use only keys for this game, and the Mac version can also step up as an amazing game. If the controls are fixed, I will give this the 2 more stars it deserves.
