### 1/5 — Straight up doesn’t work on iPhone with LIDAR

*2022-12-27*

The first game, Snowball Toss, is completely broken on my iPhone 12 Pro Max, and I know this because I’m able to play the game just fine on my Pixel 7 Pro, which doesn’t have a LIDAR sensor, so maybe that’s why it’s broken? 

On iOS, if any rings happen to spawn (only 1-2 max per round), it is impossible to throw a snowball through them, it just bounces off no matter how you aim it. 

Niantic is doing some really cool stuff with LIDAR (see: Scaniverse) but it seems like they forgot about us for this game

### 3/5 — Game loading up

*2022-07-14*

First time downloading this game and there a problem with it. It gets as far a 97% loading then stops it dont do anything else. Please sort it

### 5/5 — To Niantic

*2022-05-15*

I just want to say glad to see y'all making your own app games and keep up the great work . I can't wait for playperidot to come out in the u.s and worldwide. 

I know peridot is going to be amazing and create hybrids for years and a long time. Please leave peridot up for like ingress and pokemon go because I'm totally going to play that game forever.

An please put pre order in app store because I would love to play🙂 and us in Michigan would love to play it badly.

Keep up the great work and if y'all make more ar breeding games in the future it be great. Like a dragon breeder.

Idk if u see this but my idea for peridot is add a dot with 2 heads. A lion mane . Fangs and different eye colors  oh and muscle and let people see nearby players pets walking on street. An a feature that let you add nearby players automatically to friends list.

Can't wait to play peridot

### 5/5 — Is there more

*2022-04-23*

So I played the first of the levels but what do I do when I finish
