    Hello everyone,

    I have been a long-time reader of this forum and am excited to finally introduce something of my own. I have been a professional developer for over 10 years and wanted a bit of a break from work. This led me to develop my first game for the App Store.

    The basic idea was to create a game that can help pass the time, such as while waiting in line at the checkout or at a bus stop. Each game session lasts about one minute, providing immediate action for the player. The result is an endless runner game with just three controls: a short jump, a long jump, and a clean-the-plate action.

    The game is free to play and features occasional advertisements, which are designed to be minimally intrusive. Additionally, there are in-app purchases available, but they are entirely optional. Everything in the game can be quickly unlocked, and the in-app purchases are more like a "buy me a half coffee" kind of support.

    I hope you enjoy it. I appreciate constructive feedback more than compliments.

    PS: My highscore is 157

    Escape the killer toasters with Toasty. Toast Diver is designed to be played quickly while waiting for the bus or in line at the checkout. The game starts immediately with no distraction, providing instant action.  A super simple gameplay concept that remains consistently motivating: jump short or long and clean the dishes. Beat your high score, get better, and unlock new characters.

    Thank you very much :) I think the big success will never come with the game but I hope I can maybe pass some people's time with it. At least I like to play myself despite at least 100000... times

    Hello everyone, there is a new update, 1.2. In this update a kind of multiplayer mode is built in. There is a global leaderboard where you can compete with other players.
    During development it was especially important to me that the connection to the ranking list is very simple. You don't have to enter a username or password. Your score is uploaded completely automatically and anonymously. It was also important to me to reduce data usage on the phone as much as possible

    Fun game. My highest is 64. Easy decision on the 99 cents for no ads. If I could change anything, I’d make it tap anywhere to restart rather than having to tap the restart button.

    Thanks for your message :) I'll try to release a bugfix patch next week and move the restart button to the bottom or make it clickable everywhere

    The update fixed my only complaint, the restart button placement feels just right. My top score on 1.2 was 82, got a 78 with 1.3. I will get the toast w sunglasses eventually.
