Plinko Plus - TikTok Live Game

Hello! As I mentioned in my reply to your email, don’t worry, it’s going to be sorted out! Just follow the instructions mentioned there :)

Hello! As you may know, all TikTok Live games can be affected by restrictions and no one can guarantee 100% that it won't happen. However, several factors influence the likelihood of restrictions occurring. To help mitigate this issue, I have implemented features such as random/scrolling/turned-off "gift instructions", hiding players' names and more. Tips and suggestions for avoiding restrictions are available in the provided "Help Guide & Tips" document.

If you need further assistance or have any questions, feel free to reach out at livegameyouplay@gmail.com.

Hello! I just tested everything, and everything seems fine. I'm not sure if there were any main server interruptions at the time you tried to connect.
If the problem persists, please contact me at livegameyouplay@gmail.com and attach a screenshot of the issue, I will gladly help! :)

Hello! In the provided "Help Guide & Tips" document, there are detailed step-by-step instructions on how to install the app on an Android device. The installation procedure is the same as any other, involving unpacking the .zip file and installing the .apk. If you have difficulty understanding it in English, you can copy the text and use Google Translate or a similar app to translate it.

If you need further assistance, please contact me via livegameyouplay@gmail.com for faster support.

Hello! Thank you for the suggestion, I’ll definitely consider it! In the meantime, you might want to check out the “Help Guide & Tips” document for some ideas to expand your audience. Suggestions include using “fake” players, lowering the required number of gifts, using a webcam/mic, adding music and more. If you have any additional suggestions, feel free to reach out at livegameyouplay@gmail.com. :)

Hello! I've responded to you in more detail via email, but I’ll provide a brief summary here as well. As stated in the “Help Guide & Tips” document, if you’ve tried to reconnect too many times in a short period, please wait about 10 minutes or use a VPN to change your IP address. Also, I'm currently working on an update that will improve the overall connection. It’s going to be released very soon :)

Hello! I responded to you in more detail via the email you sent me, but just in case I’ll mention it here as well in short:

The "Your IP or Country might be blocked by TikTok" message from the server isn't entirely accurate and I’m working on resolving this issue. If the problem isn’t IP-related, it could be due to one of the following reasons:

- When entering your username, please omit the “@” symbol as requested.

- Make sure you start your Live stream before connecting the game.

- Sometimes the server doesn’t respond if your Live stream is age-limited and may display that message. To test this, try starting your stream without enabling the “Audience controls” in TikTok Live Studio. You’ll find this option at the bottom of the first screen when you press “Go LIVE.”

If the issue persists, it may indeed be IP-related. A solution is to use a VPN, as connecting from a different country, preferably the USA, should resolve this.

Hello,

There seems to be a misunderstanding. I have many customers from Germany, and none of them are experiencing issues connecting to the game.

You might have received a message saying, "Your IP or Country might be blocked by TikTok." This message from the server isn't entirely accurate and I’m working to resolve this issue. The problem may be due to one of the following reasons:

- Sometimes the server doesn’t respond if you set your Live to be age-limited and may give that message. To test this, try starting your live stream without enabling the “Audience controls” in TikTok Live Studio. You’ll find this option at the bottom of the first screen when you press “Go LIVE.”

- When entering your username, please omit the “@” symbol

- Make sure you start your Live first before connecting the game

Hello! I hope the response to your email question was helpful.

Regarding this question, I assume you are asking how to change the size of the video source of the game. In that case, as shown in the attached video I sent for help, when I right-clicked on the main screen inside TikTok Live Studio, you will see "Full screen", and when you hover your mouse over it, you will see "Fit to screen". If you require additional assistance, feel free to reach out to me via email.

Hello! There are several ways to stream from macOS. Check out this really good video as an example:

For other methods, you can search on Google and YouTube. There are various tutorials that will help you out!

Hello! For tips and suggestions, please read the “Help Guide & Tips” document, especially the end of the section titled "Tips". If you find it difficult to understand because it is written in English, you can copy the text and paste it into Google Translate :)

If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, feel free to contact me directly at livegameyouplay@gmail.com

Hello! Yes, it is fully functional when using it only on Android and you don't have to do anything on a PC. It works like streaming any other mobile game on TikTok Live. Just make sure you start your Live first before connecting your Live inside the game.

Hello! The game works flawlessly and you get exactly what is advertised, and even more than that.

Regarding technical stuff, I'm not sure which platform you are streaming from but if it's from PC, you can add different sources, including music, inside TikTok Live Studio.
As for the game's size, it automatically adjusts to maintain proper proportions, so you can maximize the window to any resolution you desire. In TikTok Live Studio, make sure to adjust the source size to fit the screen so it will be displayed in fullscreen.

There are many tutorials on YouTube regarding the use of TikTok Live Studio and streaming on TikTok in general. If you need further assistance, please contact me at livegameyouplay@gmail.com. I would be glad to help you out. :)

Hello! Once you purchase the game, just download it and use it, there are no keys required! Make sure you read the "Help Guide & Tips" provided document for instructions on how to use it and for other guides and tips :)

Hello! The current gifts in the game have been carefully selected based on extensive research to ensure their availability in every country and that they are not "filter" gifts, so it won't look strange as there is no person on the screen.
However, if you wish to change the ‘costs’ of each ball, you don’t necessarily need other gifts. You can simply adjust the number of gifts required for each ball in the Settings. :)

Hello! Thank you for your purchase. I've tested the Android version just to be sure, and everything appears to be working fine. To troubleshoot further, please ensure that you've started your Live session before connecting, and make sure you've entered your username without the "@" symbol. If you require additional assistance, feel free to reach out to me at livegameyouplay@gmail.com.

Hello! Thank you for your purchase. I've tested the Android version just to be sure and everything appears to be working fine. Without more information and what message you are receiving inside the game, please ensure that you've started your Live session before connecting, and make sure you've entered your username without the "@" symbol. If you require additional assistance, feel free to reach out to me at livegameyouplay@gmail.com.

Hello! Thank you for your purchase! Under your purchases at itch.io/my-purchases, you will find the games you’ve purchased. Select this game, and you’ll see all available files. Additionally, you can refer to this link: itch.io/docs/buying/already-bought. In case you still can’t find it, please contact itch.io support via support@itch.io for further help, as it’s beyond my capabilities. :)

Hello! I responded to you in more detail via the email you sent me, but just in case I’ll mention it here as well in short, to make sure you have read the "Help Guide & Tips" document, especially the section on how to connect :)

Hello! Under your purchase (itch.io/my-purchases), you will find the games you’ve purchased. Select this game and you’ll see all available files. Download the “Help Guide & Tips.pdf” file. Additionally, you can refer to this link: itch.io/docs/buying/already-bought.

Hello! I'm sorry for any inconvenience. Rest assured that the application works perfectly fine. You simply need to grant permission, as you haven’t downloaded the app directly from the App Store. Depending on your MacOS version, there are different ways to allow the app to start. Please refer to the "Help Guide & Tips" provided. Under the "Installation" section, you’ll find a short guide on how to start the app on MacOS. If you still require assistance, feel free to contact me via livegameyouplay@gmail.com

In case the solution in the "Help Guide & Tips" doesn't work for your MacOS, follow these steps:

1. Unzip “PlinkoPlus.app” from the “Mac.zip” to your desktop (so without the “Mac” folder, only “PlinkoPlus.app”)

2. Open “Terminal” on your Mac (on the top bar you chose Go > Utilities and you will find “Terminal”)

3. Type: cd Desktop

4. Type: chmod +x  PlinkoPlus.app/Contents/MacOS/‘PlinkoPlus’ (If it doesn’t let you, use sudo chmod +x  PlinkoPlus.app/Contents/MacOS/‘PlinkoPlus’)

5. That should be it!

In case you need more help, check this video (also, it's the same situation for other itch.io game):

Hello! Let's go one by one:

1. It’s available for any country where TikTok is accessible.

2. While a VPN is not always necessary, certain countries enforce stricter restrictions on accessing social media platforms, including TikTok. To address this issue, I recommend using a VPN. However, I’m not entirely certain about the current situation in Malaysia.

3. Generally, LIVE availability is required for an account. While 

criteria for going LIVE can vary by country, most places mandate a minimum of 1,000 followers. If you intend to stream from a PC, you’ll need access to TikTok Live Studio. For Android, streaming is as straightforward as any other mobile game.

4. No. As stated on the store listing only PC, Mac and Android platforms are supported.

Thank you for your suggestion, I appreciate your feedback! Currently, I have set those final scores (10, 20, and 40 points) and scores by destroying other balls in a way that aims to make the game balanced, strategic and to encourage viewers/players to use gifted balls. However, if there is a growing interest in making this customizable, I am open to implementing it in future updates :)"

I’m glad you enjoyed it! Be sure to keep an eye out for the upcoming game :)

Hello! I'm sorry about inconvenience you may have. I haven't cross such a problem and haven't got any similar reports. Please make sure you allowed all permissions required by the app so it can work properly. Also, download the latest version (I'm not sure what version of the app do you use as I haven't got any sale during few hours of your account lifetime, which is very strange).

Please feel free to contact me at livegameyouplay@gmail.com if you need any more assistance.

Hello! As indicated within the game, it appears that your IP address or country might be blocked by TikTok. This can occur in some countries where there are stricter restrictions on accessing social media (especially TikTok). A solution is to use a VPN, as connecting from a different country, preferably the USA, should resolve this issue. This information is also outlined in the “Help Guide & Tips.”

Please note that this issue isn’t specific to my game, it affects all TikTok Live games since they connect to TikTok servers.

Regarding VPN, there are several applications/services available, including NordVPN, Surfshark VPN, and ExpressVPN. Additionally, there are free variants with limited functionality, such as Proton VPN.

Please feel free to contact me at livegameyouplay@gmail.com if you need any more assistance.

I’m glad to hear that you’re satisfied with the game and I’m happy to help out! Also, thank you for pointing out the age-limit thing, I’ll be sure to add that to the "Help Guide & Tips" document. :)

Hello! I’m glad to hear that you’re pleased with the game. 

Regarding your questions, currently, those options aren't available. However, I wanted to share some insights with you.

The current gifts in the game have been carefully selected based on extensive research to ensure their availability in every country and avoid them appearing as ‘filter’ gifts, which could look odd as no person is on the screen. If you wish to change the "costs" of each ball, you don’t necessarily need other gifts. You can simply adjust the number of gifts required for each ball in the Settings. Just to mention, I have a plan to implement this feature in the near future.

As for the users’ names and pictures, they have been purposely chosen to resemble realistic new accounts and not to portray someone who may actually exist. :)

Hello! The "Help Guide & Tips.pdf" contains installation instructions, usage details, and other useful information :)

Hello. I'm not sure what exactly do you mean but if you are using the Android version, make sure you allow any permission asked by the app. This also counts for other platforms (PC and Mac).

Please feel free to contact me at livegameyouplay@gmail.com if you need any more assistance, just make sure to provide me with more information about what platform and what device you are using.

Hello,
At this point, there are no options for follow and share but I could implement it in some way in future updates.

Absolutely! As stated on the store listing, you can reach out to me at livegameyouplay@gmail.com.

Hello! Yes, the game automatically checks the connection every 10 seconds and repairs the disconnection if necessary.
