## What is Skibs?

Skibs is a minimalistic, psychedelic, infinite runner. Navigate down the endless multicolored wormhole, surviving the skibs, these "power ups" that cause anomalies and try to kill you. If you can live long enough, you just might see some things, as this game is designed to explicitly cause visual illusions within skilled players.

Skibs is a unique game in that it uses geometric art to induce a motion aftereffect. Many video games of today use ultra realistic graphics to envelope players in fantasy worlds that seem like they could be real. Skibs on the other hand does more with less, giving players the option to visually enhance the real world around them.

Play if you dare! Now with leaderboards and extra achievements through Game Center.

### 2/5 — Very fun and unique but has bugs

*2019-04-13*

I really like this game but there are some major issues, which makes the majority of the game inaccessible. Each level has objectives to complete. However, even after completing all of the objectives, it will not advance to Level 3. Also, when you die, tapping on the Home option gets you stuck on a loading screen and you have to close out of the app. There is apparently 28 levels, but that doesn’t do any good when you can only use 2 of them. Hopefully the developers work out the issues soon.

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for your review! It took us awhile to figure it out, but we fixed the level increment error. If you update to version 2.0.0, your level should be set correctly at the Home Screen before starting the game. We are very sorry that this bug affected you, and if everything has improved, we hope you could update your review. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to improve the game!

### 5/5 — Its about to be skibs

*2019-02-23*

Literally bought this when my friend showed it to me because when you start, it says “it’s about to be skibs” in a really goofy funny way. Then I started playing it. This is a great game for when you have like 2 min to burn. Also, its pretty. I would probably add a second song (as the other review mentioned) and some additional work on collision detection. Difficulty is good. For a dollar, its worth it.

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for your review! We have updated the music selection a bit, as well as other aspects of the game. Please enjoy, and let us know if there is anything else we can do to improve!

### 5/5 — Very fun game!

*2019-02-18*

Love the game, very entertaining! Fast paced and exciting

### 3/5 — Has potential

*2019-02-15*

I find the core gameplay to be fun and addictive. It’s beautiful especially when you unlock multiple colors. I recommend the game, but I want to be honest about major areas where it can improve:
1. There are zones near to the left and bottom of the screen where the controls don’t work. Maybe this is an Apple thing outside your control, but you should at least make it clear.
2. It’s not immediately responsive when I crash. That extra time to reach the end after a crash is unnecessary and annoying.
3. The music is extremely repetitive.
4. The “big ship” skib is too difficult— sometimes even an instant game over.

It would be nice, given the fact that some crashes are not my fault, to at least have some extra lives or something.

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for your review! We are pleased to inform you that we took your advice to improve the game. Previous release version 1.1.5 added immediate crash response, and our latest release (2.0.0) has more! We have adjusted the music selection, as well as adding a buffer to the ship enlargement Skib. Every player also has two lives they are allowed to use each run. We hope these updates improve your gameplay experience, and if they do, it would be appreciated if you could update your review.
