First, thanks so much for your comment, I really like to get feedback like this!
I like to find the perfect balance, between getting the user just a little annoyed by waiting and still feel it's ok to wait for a free play. I guess I should lower the waiting time some, because I have already got a negative comment about it in the US appstore. I really don't want people to run away and uninstall the app in anger, but I still like to have the chance to also sell some of those "start the game fast coins".
I now plan to add a third button in the arcade like "free training", so a newbee fast can train for free but without seing points and just under a limited time like say two minutes...?
This is how you play 1D Arcade:
The "scrolling text" is your friend, it helps you along with hints and keeps you company.
You are supposed to hit the green waves before they pass the centerline, and avoid to touch the red or pink waves before they pass the centerline. (Pink Waves turns around and attack you again) There is also one kind of red "depth bombs" (they come from 2D space and enters 1D space) that you can touch but you should not stand on that side when it explodes, because then you die...
The "Rainbow goodie" is good (it also comes from 2D space and enters 1D space), catch it (by hit it with the paddle) and it gives you the ability to shoot by double click. (The depth bomb is for example effective to shoot)
A fun 1D pong game comes up after a moment as a bonusmode, and you are supposed to keep the white balls bouncing and at the same time avoid read waves. (The red Waves in the bonus mode does not kill you but ends the bonus/pong mode)
A golden/yellow shiny goodie thing is good and gives you an extra Life. (catch it by hit it with the paddle) Also a green fast moving goodie thing is good and gives you the Power to sweep up missed green waves. (Catch it by hit it with the paddle)
You can (Even if rarely) win free coins, if you get good points.
Thanks for your time!
