    I've been going back and forth between this game and Soldner-X on the PS3. Just - makes for a strange morning.

    It's interesting that the original game designer no longer owns the rights ot the game, and presumably had nothing to do with porting it to the iPhone. I found no mention of the iPhone version on his website.

    I love it! As for me the best game for iPhone!

    Looks good, however how come this is medium-priced while featuring less levels than the computer version? Storage is not a problem, I suppose. Perhaps they couldn't make the rest of the stages run at a decent frame rate.

    An instant classic - gameplay + cuteness + I just love those backdrops

    The PC version does not offer 6 levels, but 4, like the iPhone version which contains just everything the PC has to offer.

    During the later stages of play (on the iphone) the game will crash, and is not saved. No sense to keep playing. Have other people experienced the same?
