Calling all Blind gamers. I am working with a game production company to develop a game similar to Audio Defence. I guess I got tired of waiting around for someone else to do it. My game is called The Circus Masters Revenge. You guessed it. Instead of zombies coming at you. You will have 23 different kinds of circus performers that are trying to attack you. This game is still in the early stages of development. My first time attempting something like this so I am being very very picky. I don’t care if the blind community wants to play this game or not. I want to play it because I am a blind gamer that misses this type of game. I have to admit that when Somethin Else left iOS. I was really upset. I never even got to play the night jar. They definitely were ahead of their time as far as game play goes. Atleast on a mobile platform. Nobody since has even come close. This is where I want to succeed. Not just for all the blind gamers out there but for me. If you are interested in a game like this. Let me know in a comment. The more gamers interested in a game like this will help my game producers understand how important this game will be to us. I even got Marty from the blindfold series interested in this game. He is helping me understand the business side of this adventure. So when this game is developed and you enjoy it make sure you thank him for helping me out with the process. I will keep everyone updated on the progress right here. Thanks for your time. I will try my best not to let you down.

Game testers
This message is for game testers only. I wanted to share this with you because it will make sense during gameplay. I hope that you guys have fun with CMR, because I do. ha ha. Good hunting to everyone. CM says, You better bring your A games. https://youtu.be/d3Fr434jEps
Nice song
I wish tomorrow was Friday.
only one day guys!
I know we stil have to wayt, but we can do it.
In india, we say: wayt's froot is sweet. so only one day!
Very sorry
I was just informed by the team that Apple needs more time. They do not work on Saturdays and Sundays. They will send you invitations for Game testing on Monday morning. It is out of my control. I apologize. I was very excited for all of you to see what we have accomplished. I hope you’re not too mad. I am very frustrated and ripping my hair out right now. I will be a cranky pants until Monday morning. Sorry guys.
challenging?
hi, how long does it take to beat this title? i completed all the arenas in audio defence when it was out in like 20 minutes lol, does this title have levels? achievements etc? just curious. that doesn't surprise me about not working the weekends.
weekends
surely when the game was submitted you received an e-mail, stating that the team did not work weekends to aprove the test flight build?
It really should be on the weekends
Well.. This is totally unacceptable. Can't apple send the invitations out on Sunday, or even Saturday? You're having us test it on a schooldays? School, day. Wow. How can I test it on a schooldays in the morning. um, not gonna work.
First the kickstarter. Now we postponed it to december 7th. Now that got changed to a schooldays? December10th? Nah, unacceptable. I'm looking forward to testing.. But if this is gonna keep going on then I don't know now. I will not quit, but come on, please, how can I just test it on a schooldays.
No problem
I completely understand company policy and at Eric Jeffrey 11 come on dude Joseph has no control over when and when not Apple decides to approve CMR .
Hey Erick, don't have a
Hey Erick, don't have a tantrum and throw all your toys out of the pram, its a few days delay, chill. as to it being a school day, you don't have just a single day to test the game, you have several weeks in fact, as betas of apps usually don't expire for a few months, its clear you have never done any testing before. also, its just a game at the end of the day. and remember apple actually deals with serious apps not just little games for us so they actually probably think of a working week rather than a school day. frankly grow up.
I have done testing before
I tasted Feer.
Meant to say testing
I tested feer
test
I would really like to be a beta tester.
Sabrina
Sorry Sabrina. Tester list is full. Maybe next time my friend
Testing
The testing period is usually for a fair bit of time, so people will have plenty of time to test and give feedback. Also, some people also have work all day during the week too, so can't play during the day. There is however this thing called evenings. They work great.
testing list question
Hello. Did i, with an email adress [email protected] get in the list?
I want to
Hello, I would love ′to beta test this game. My eemail is [email protected]
Game Testing
I am sorry buddy. If you are not already on the game testing list then you will not be able to game test at this time. Game testing list is full. We will have a second round of game testing after the first of the year. I will start over asking for testers at that time. Keep checking back on this forum for updates. Thanks.
seriously do we have to have
seriously do we have to have all this hot air cluttering up applevis, all these wanabes whining I want to test I want to test, can't we give this topic a rest till the game is actually ready for release?
I have never known a topic on applevis that has had so much hot air 99 percent of which isn't worth reading as its mostly people saying the same stuff either the game will be great, I can't wait for this amazing sounding game, I am going to kick your ass, etc, I want to test, game is delayed I am having crowd funding issues, seriously 6 pages of well not much worth reading. I get the developer wants to keep the community informed, but seriously this topic was started about a year ago and its all mostly talk. I know there is a game, but how many times do people have to be told no more testing spots, and when there were spots people should have been told to just contact the developer directly, instead of posting emails openly to this forum, your really inviting yourself to be spammed here.
actually maybe applevis should have a policy on this, telling people to contact developers directly if they want to be involved in testing and such.
Agreed
I agree with you Alex. No reason to get frustrated buddy.
Well, guess I have to weight.
Well.. I guess I will have to weight. Hopefuly Apple reviews it, and we can test it. Since they promised Monday, then, ahh well. A few days won't hurt. But it's on a school day, so I mean, yeah, might have to test it in the evening. And Jessy, you are funny. Thanks for that, kind one.
I go to school too.
Hey arec! I just want to tell you my friend that just wayt for ffew days. I also go to school, and I am also excited. I don't know who commented, but I am agree with him. it is not in MRJoseph's hand. just relax!
Monday will be awesome!
I can't wait for Monday! It will be awesome to finally test the game and give my feedback. I am definitely looking forward to it!
It is timeyys
I just received an email from the project manager for CMR. Apple has confirmed Monday morning. They apologized for any inconvenience. Mental Vision also apologizes for any inconvenience. This being my first time as a game developer, I was unaware of situations that could arise. It is my fault for not being educated in the launch process. This is not an excuse but, a learning experience for Mental Vision.ggzggg I promise it will never happen again. I hope you can understand. We will all grow from this experience.
You should make a bata trailer or something, excited!!
Hi, you made a kickstarter trailer. That was great. Now it's time for Mentalvission to make a release trailer for it. Exciting!!
Testing for the game
Hi. Does that mean that everybody who has signed up for the beta testing program will receive their invites when this game is released? I’m sure I’ve already given you my email address anyway.
I am so very happy
I feel like a little kid on Christmas Eve. I am very happy. You’ll find out in the morning why. Ha ha.

Thank you, my friend, for giving us the chance to beta-test this game which I know will be excellent. Eagerly looking forward to download CMR And have tons of fun playing and testing.
Thank you, Joe, for making this happen.
Peace.
No problem
Somebody had to do it. I’m just grateful that I could.
I’d like to give thanks to the circus master himself.
Well circus master. Thanks for letting me test this game.
Response from the Circus Master
No problem Eric. You will fail. Hee hee!!!
No no i will not
Oh i or not. Tell circusmaster that I hope there are epic weapons that we can use with Epic sounds .
playing
Hello. how this game looks like and what is the content in this game? Do i need headphones?
Instructions
Just follow the instructions and you’ll be fine
Re: instructions
Are the instructions in the game?
Can we download the beta today?
I followed the instructions, although I already have testflight installed on my phone, opened it and I see a redeem button and the app I'm already testing. I've also tried uninstalling testflight and reinstalling it with no luck.
where is it?
i thought this beta was due today.
Testing
Apple will send invitations to you Monday morning. You will want to wear headphones. Hope you guys have a lot of fun playing.
Ah ok.
Thanks for clearing that up.
It's very exciting that I'm going to be testing this game.
I really enjoy the VR part of the concept of the game.
To the circus master who thinks I will be failing the game
WellI do great shooting. So I don't think I will fail. Haha to the circus master. But anyway, this is really exciting..
Another apology
I have to apologize again. I was doing some research on Apple. I just found out that internal testing can only Max out at 25 people. Internal is mostly the development team. External testers maxes out at about 10,000 people. External testers means all of you. My apologies too the eleven plus, interested testers that were turned away. I know better now. I feel very bad. Like I said before. This is my first time developing. I am being educated as I go. Looking forward to everyone’s feedback. Happy hunting.
Everybody makes mistakes
Nobodies perfect, but I know you can do it.
no worries
No worries, everyone makes mistakes. And... look at it like this... you'll have more people testing and giving feedback, which is great. As for the beta testing on munday... happy hunting to all of yoll. This is gunna be great!
levels?
i found audio defence farar too easy, how challenging is this title? instead of all the i'll shoot you and all that rubbish, lol how hard is it to play if it just say 2 levels of swing my phone bang bang hit them dead, i've won no challenge.
More hot air
Thank all of you guys. You are all becoming my family. I appreciate your support. I am very grateful to all of you.
release date?
Hi,
I am a bit unhappy that I didn't apply for testing, but I have a question:
When do you plan to release the game, I mean if nothing game-breaking that takes longer to fix is found during testing?
I might
I might give this game a try once it's been released.
