Nobody is paying for that subscription
sick
Good game but bad subscription method
You ruined it
Another game ruined by GameClub
It's not about anything the developer did. No, the developer of Wave Wave is actually in the process of making another entry to the Wave Franchise as we speak.
GameClub as a publisher has an inherently flawed approach towards indie developers for iOS. How and why? Well who wants to be pay-walled by a subscription that gives you unlimited to tons of games you didn't ask for all to play A SINGULAR GAME WITHOUT LIMITS OR RESTRICTIONS?!
Many other developers have watched some amazing games tank in rating, reviews, and more because of shady and garbage publishers like Playond or GameClub. They do nothing but harm the developers and the users trying to play the game by making nobody want to download the game.
For example, this had happened to WoblyWare and the creator of Daggerhood.
Even as someone who has unlimited access to the game due to my previous purchase of Wave Wave as a paid application, GameClub is genuinely even more intrusive with the fact that it has random pop ups, their obtrusive interactive logo that's in the way of every UI element in the game outside of main gameplay, and the fact that they removed the link to the original developer's Twitter account.
Wave Wave and its real developer are what really made the game a masterpiece. Publishers like GameClub and Playond are really what ruin games.
If you're an indie developer looking for publishers, i recommend you check out Crescent Moon Games; that's where games like Daggerhood went after they got hurt from people like Playond and GameClub.
Not Playable
Edit: Thanks, developer for responding. I was able to get past the subscription pay wall. I still don’t get the fact that you only have 10 MINUTES to play the game when you just want to play the game and don’t want to subscribe. Just allow people to not to do the subscription, I just want to play the game, it’s fun. Stars aren’t changing at the moment.
Response from developer
Wave Wave is totally free to try with no need to sign up — email entry is 100% skippable. No subscription is necessary to try out the game (though full access is only for subscribers) — just press the "no thanks" options, and you'll be able to play the game to get a taste of it. If you're having trouble, we're happy to help at support@gameclub.io. We also offer a free trial (that you can cancel at any time) so you can play as many of the games in our library as much as you want before spending any money.
So sad to see another one go
Ya don’t get this game
Response from developer
Wave Wave is part of a larger game subscription service called GameClub — all-you-can-play access to a large library of curated games (including Wave Wave), with hundreds of hours of gameplay within the subscription. Though full access is only included with a subscription, we're committed to letting everyone "try before you buy" — to play enough to get a sense of the game free of charge. We also offer a free trial (that you can cancel at any time) so you can play as many of the games in our library as much as you want before spending any money. Hope you take a look at our other titles to give them a try!
Addictive but pay wall ruins it
Really?
Response from developer
Everyone who bought this game prior to this update will continue to have full access to the game without starting a subscription. It sounds like this free upgrade benefit did not work for you — please write us at support@gameclub.io to get it straightened out.
