    I forgot kick serve slow... Could you put it on Y?

    Maybe power serve is too effective, especially on the second serves. It should be more risky, in my opinion.

    Think slow kick should work on Y in 1.2 already.

    Could increase error on a power serve if used on 2nd serve..

    I don't know if it is possible, but it would be nice, when MFi support will be "official", an optional dead zone for analog stick with a test screen. A touch of class. :)

    On my Gamevice it is too small. I'd say it has no deadzone at all.

    I've now asked if v1.2 can be expedited to review.. (even if it's not granted, there's a chance of it going through by Wednesday anyway). As soon as that's done I can fix up the MFi support properly.

    Really hope so. If any reviews I get are based on 1.1 I worry the difficulty could harm scores.

    Mind you, I've got 1 iTunes review from a player with 1.1 who says the *lack* of difficulty means he might not stick with it. He's won 30+ matches but only 4 tournaments, so not sure how he can come to that conclusion. Impossible to keep everyone happy..

    Once this version is out and the WW availability kicks in, I'll be working on :-

    A few AI bits,
    the controller config screen,
    pop-ups for the button layout for MFi controllers (so I can announce it properly in the store text)
    A better season summary / trophy room.

    These will naturally take a little longer so the 1.3 Update will not be quite as quick as the first few have been. But please keep the suggestions and feedback coming, it's really useful and if anything urgent pops up, I'll obviously address as soon as I can.

    Beginning my career. really like the options to set my custom guy up. lots of room for extras here in future updates like more colors, sweat pants, cool designs for wacky rackets.
    Just learning the basics right now. Serving takes some time to get used to doing.

    I think he was playing quick matches with best players like Mac.
    I am pretty good with tennis games and yours is not easy for sure.

    A difficulty option could help with rookie, normal and hard

    Looks like my request was granted so I can hopefully update to 1.2 in a few hours, and in good time for Wednesday..

    Question​
    Does everyone lose at the beginning games.
    seems like my guy is overly slow and can't get to the ball ever.
    does this change the more you play. does your guy get progressively faster and better

    This is part of the reason why I'm getting 1.2 rushed through. v1.1 had a bug which meant the AI was hitting the ball harder at you than it should. You player will improve as you earn skill point stars and add them to him in the skills screen. You get 2 for doing the daily challenge, and 1 every time the post-match reward bar levels up.
    Also the game starts out at a reduced play speed (17% slow), which can feel a bit slow if you're used to this type of game, but each time you win a match it increases towards it's proper speed.

    Cant wait ^^ I still managed to win 2 tournaments but I lost too many point and went from 19th place to ... 36th. But it was a good training, I drastically improved. What will include the 1.2? Will it fix the button?

    Yeah, I think a while with v1.1 will have improved your reactions :)

    1.2 does have slightly larger shot buttons, and now removed the space between them and the edge of the device (on a phone) so it should stop you missing the button by pressing there.

    Also, I've taken the little arrows off the button images. They looked a bit ugly and you don't need a constant reminder that they are swipable for the different shots once you've played the tutorial
