Is it like Spelunky? coloncruncher Well-Known Member Mar 14, 2016 76 2 8 #6 coloncruncher, Aug 10, 2016 Loving this game. Don't usually like Rogue-like games (hate losing progress), but this is so tight and so fun I can see myself playing this a lot. It feels like a Ravenous game for sure, so if you like any of their other stuff I would say go for it for sure. My only gripe so far is that I get some graphical glitches fairly often (iphone6Splus). Quazonk Well-Known Member Mar 30, 2011 1,102 4 38 #7 Quazonk, Aug 10, 2016 It's nothing like Spelunky, it's an auto-runner with dungeon crawler elements. LordShad0wz Well-Known Member Nov 19, 2014 4,280 1 38 #8 LordShad0wz, Aug 10, 2016 Let's do this! It looks awesome! I'll post impressions later this evening after I've had a few hours with it. I love those Ravenous art style graphics! Also nice decision to have it procedurally generated. That's some awesome replayability right off the bat! The only thing is you should have a gameplay video on the AppStore or here. I always look for the video.

Isn't this 2016? I thought game controls would improve by now, but it seems the more developers want to dumb them down... Zaraf Well-Known Member Dec 17, 2009 413 4 18 #16 Zaraf, Aug 10, 2016 This game kinda seems like Downwell. ravenousgames Well-Known Member Dec 20, 2009 695 0 0 Game Developer Canada http://www.ravenousgames.com/ #17 ravenousgames, Aug 10, 2016 We've made enough true platformers (League of Evil, Random Heroes, Devious Dungeon, and more) and did a lot for the mobile game industry in terms of touch-screen platformer controls. We need to mix up the formula once in a while which is how we came up with Tiny Rogue and this. ravenousgames Well-Known Member Dec 20, 2009 695 0 0 Game Developer Canada http://www.ravenousgames.com/ #18 ravenousgames, Aug 10, 2016 We will look into the flickering line issues.

DJEmergency Well-Known Member Dec 10, 2012 100 0 0 USA #19 DJEmergency, Aug 10, 2016 Yes and those games are amazing! We need more like them this day and age... Most if not all developers are releasing these auto-runners and I'm very much tired of them. Plus we need more support for MFi game pad games... Boardumb Administrator Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Apr 14, 2009 8,964 880 113 THE BOSS Sacramento, CA #20 Boardumb, Aug 10, 2016 It's not "dumbed down" it's just a different type of game. That's like saying a 3rd-person shooter is dumbed down because it's not in 1st-person. Autorun platformers can be just as challenging and even more so than a traditional platformer. See: Lost Socks, the Rayman trilogy, Wind-up Knight, and many more. Trust me, iOS has PLENTY of traditional platformers. It's my favorite genre, and on my phone currently I have roughly 80 traditional style platformers, and those are just the ones I've deemed super great enough to keep installed. I've played many more than that that I end up deleting after beating. I agree we can always use more good platformers, but I don't agree it should be at the expense of a developer compromising their vision for the game just for the superficial sake of having it be a "real" platformer in certain peoples' eyes.
