In a way, it is disappointing to be priced that low... Im not complaining, just saying this deserves more. EDIT: HOLY CRAP!!! SAME ICON AS SLAYIN?!?!?!?! DOES THIS MEAN THE SAME DEVS?!?!?!?!

EvilDucktator ð® Spam Police ð Sep 28, 2011 490 0 0 Walt Disney World Cast Member Brisbane, Australia #12 EvilDucktator, Jan 14, 2016 Only 9 levels though? :-/ Guess it's about a dime a level but that's a little disappointing. Not a deciding factor though if the gameplay is good. At least it won't add fo my backlog with that length. chief78 Well-Known Member Jul 24, 2012 2,317 7 38 #13 chief78, Jan 14, 2016 Holy crap! I was wondering when this was going to release!!

Plus there's a hard mode. Am I right in seeing that your first weapon, at least, does nothing to the enemies on the second level? jpgold Well-Known Member Sep 21, 2012 1,818 56 48 Online Ad Sales - Pandora New York, NY #17 jpgold, Jan 14, 2016 This is old school hard, no checkpoints, and levels are long. Controls are tight, no surprise there. poopguy69 Active Member Nov 14, 2015 29 0 0 #18 poopguy69, Jan 14, 2016 No there's checkpoints. But you lose it when you run out of lives. So far this is really great! First level is a cakewalk, but it really picks up by the second level. I just beat the pharaoh in the third level. The controls are perfect. dreadnok Well-Known Member Jun 8, 2011 4,157 7 38 I came here to kick ass and chew bubble gum I'm ou #19 dreadnok, Jan 14, 2016 Looks like the Mega Man game iOS owners deserved WoodLoaf Active Member Jan 27, 2013 30 0 0 #20 WoodLoaf, Jan 14, 2016 My 5 minute impression is that this plays like a dream.
