Great

Great game the music is great the game is great make more please!

Too fast

Due to the small amount of levels, this makes me be able to complete this very quickly. Because of this, I think this should be a bit cheaper, to make the money’s worth. This is the only reason I’m downgrading my review from 5 stars to 4.

Cute but quite simple

Flocks is a very cute puzzle game with a nice twist in that you control groups of little blue people working together to solve challenges. However the puzzles are either a bit too simple or just off the wall and solved in a way that doesn’t make sense, like the basketball one. Still good and worth the price though.

To easy to fast

Nice art Stile and concept but over way to fast and the puzzles are to easy finished it in about an hour and 3 bucks for that nah

my new favorite game!

This game is very calming yet not boring, very simple yet very detailed! The graphics are amazing and I love the concept. This game is very comforting and beautiful and I absolutely love it!

Response from developer

Hey there, developers here! Whoa, thank you so much, that's super nice :) Messages like yours make it worth it!

Not great

Not amazing, not compelling. Some of the game mechanics do not work the first time you try them leading you to believe you’re doing something wrong. Just a weird game.

Response from developer

Hi! Developer here, trying to catch up. Is there any chance you can send us more feedback on which mechanics are broken or causing problems? We definitely would love to fix those! If you feel like it, please send us a mail to flocks@nada.studio ... Thank you!

Great fun!

If you like gentle, thoughtful puzzlers, you'll love this. You control some little characters on the screen and have to split/combine them to solve problems, e.g. have two people go off and collect a log that's too heavy for one person to lift, and have the single person to and fetch something to hang on the end of the log.

The concept is simple, the puzzles are great...give it a go!

Grafisch nice

Spielsteuerung absolut schlecht.

Fun

I organize my apps by color, and the only reason I got this game is because the icon is yellow/orange. Now I’ve beaten the first stage of levels and love it

Response from developer

That's super nice of you. Thank you so much for playing our little game :)

Stuck

I want to like this game. It looks clever, I want to support developers, and I like that responses are given to reviewers. That is so refreshing. I gave 5 stars.

But either I’m doing something wrong, or maybe the App Store telling me my iPad is compatible was not correct. It’s brutal to move a little person anywhere. If I roll my finger across the objective, the character will move sometimes. If I tap the objective, he’ll just throw something at it. And if he gets behind a tree he’s lost in the forest and I can’t select him and have to restart.

I don’t have a controller but did try with that feature turned off and on.

Darling and lighthearted

The artwork is simple and whimsical, and the puzzles aren’t tough. Mechanic is a little different but straightforward nevertheless. Totally recommended for anyone looking for something new.

Nice

It’s ok in my opinion the levels aren’t really that hard. Completed the game in a few hours

Great game, poor controls

As others have said, this is a great game. Simple and fun concept. It is heavily let down by the controls. They freeze and, at times are awkward. When this causes the player to need to repeat a level, that frustrates them. Testing would surely have encountered these issues for your team and, if you’d fixed them I think you’d have five star ratings.

Response from developer

Hey there! Developers here. We are a small indie team of two, so testing and finding bugs is always tricky; we are biased after all, and it's always hard to find awkward controls that we programmed ourselves. That being said, we have just released a new update that should both fix the freezing bug, and also simplify the split/merge mechanic. We'd love to hear your feedback once you give it a try (feel free to send us an email to flocks@nada.studio). Thank you for playing!

Could be 5!

Need more levels!
In all I absolutely Love the game it’s just a shame about the controls, one minute they’ve frozen the next they just don’t work at all. I pray they fix this before they put additional content out!

Response from developer

Hey there! Devs here! We have just submitted an update that fixes both the freezing bug and the weird controls; splitting and merging flocks should be easier now! We'd love to hear your feedback once you try it :)

Super idea… if I could use the controls!

I love the concept of the game, looks nice and is a good level of difficulty - but the controls are super tricky. I’m still stuck on a level because I physically can’t do what it’s asking me to in the tutorial!

Response from developer

Hey there! thanks for your feedback. We've worked hard to fix controls, and we just rolled an update simplifying the split/merge mechanic (no more slides, just tap on the flocks and select what you want). If you are still stuck, please send us an email to flocks@nada.studio so we can help you and fix what you find broken / tricky to do :)

Fun but a little buggy

Really enjoying this nice relaxing puzzler but I keep getting a bug where the onscreen joystick gets stuck and I can no longer move. Quitting and restarting the game fixes it but it’s a tad annoying.

Response from developer

Hey! Thank you so much for playing! As for that bug, it's been smashed on the 1.0.3 update. Hope you can keep on enjoying our little game :)

GOOD IDEA - TERRIBLE CONTROLS

Looks good, nice level of difficulty, great music.

But the controls, especially for the vehicles, are terrible. The characters are either unresponsive or crazily over-sensitive to the slightest touch.

Response from developer

Hi! Thank you so much for your feedback. We are truly interested on your insight about controls; if you feel like sharing your inputs on how to improve them, or what you dislike about them, we'd love to read you at flocks@nada.studio :) EDIT: We have just released an update fixing the controls. We'd love to hear your feedback on the new version :)

So much painful driving

I’m sorry I really want to like this game. But the controls are lacking (especially driving, jumping off/on to things) and take away from every good aspect of the game because driving and jumping is mostly what player does. By the time I finished some levels I was so frustrated that it wasn’t worth it. Once the developer gets better controls going, this will be a sweet game.
Also, the developers are very responsive so I am sure they will perfect the game soon enough!

Response from developer

Hey there! thank you so much for your feedback. Even though we worked really hard to make all the mechanics, it's clear we have room for improvement there. Could you please reach us to flocks@nada.studio with your detailed complaints, so we can work on them and improve flocks' controls? Thank you!

Good Idea…But Too Vague At Times

Overall the game was a good idea, and I like the concept. However some of the objectives are just too vague. For example, I’m on the level “crusher” where you have to crash a car. And despite the fact that I successfully crushed the car and it passed through the crushing machine, I still fail the level. I have no idea why I am failing the level. I’ve accomplished the objective. There needs to be a bit more to help the user fully understand all level objective requirements. At this point I cannot figure out why I cannot get past this “crusher” level and have just given up on the app.

Response from developer

Hey, developer here! First of all, thank you for your feedback. Looks like you might have caught a bug there, because it seems that you are solving the puzzle as you should. Could you send us an email to flocks@nada.studio, so we can exchange more details and try to find out what's wrong, please? Thank you so much!

Fun but buggy

This game has a lot of potential but it is also buggy to the point where i had to repeatedly restart levels and lose progress

Response from developer

Hey there! Thank you for playing flocks. We'd love to hear your feedback on those levels you found buggy, so we can improve them and make the whole game better. Could you please send us an email to flocks@nada.studio with some examples? Much appreciated!
