Will come back with some impressions since it's a premium game and 98% of people on here will complain it isn't free. Dailon80 Well-Known Member Nov 10, 2014 3,574 66 48 Program Director/Radio DJ Eos #6 Dailon80, Feb 7, 2017 It's not bad still early in the game... I do like how it combines diff gameplay elements whether it's jumping sliding or shooting with your robot friend. Can't explain why but it somewhat reminds me of Altered Beast my fav sega game. Easily worth 2$ and I'm game for anything steampunk anyways. Keeps you thinking and on your toes that's for sure. Glad it's a premium. goodnightgames Well-Known Member Dec 2, 2012 584 21 18 Game Developer New York, New York http://goodnightgames.com/ #7 goodnightgames, Feb 7, 2017 For sure, we're not going anywhere!

AppUnwrapper Well-Known Member Oct 26, 2011 4,062 3 0 http://www.appunwrapper.com/escape-games/ #10 AppUnwrapper, Feb 7, 2017 Is it just me or does the difficulty ramp up too much with the third boss? Didn't die at all until then, but it seemed to require such precise timing that even when I thought I was doing well, I still somehow took damage. Then I got bored of trying to survive when I got to the second stage of it.

This one allows me to receive more input to understand d the gameplay jpgold Well-Known Member Sep 21, 2012 1,818 56 48 Online Ad Sales - Pandora New York, NY #12 jpgold, Feb 7, 2017 I need to play more but agree with appunwrapper. My inital play through brought me to the 3rd world and then I died on purpose just to see what would happen/what was next. Basically you are controlling two characters. The flying robot who takes care of flying enemies by tapping on the projectiles as they come at you. The running girl is used to jump, slide, and punch her way through enemies. It wasn't really described, but looks like weapons upgrade the longer you go without taking damage. Once damage is taken you go back to your base weapons. The controls were ok. I did run into a few instances where I wanted to slide and it didn't register as I was swiping to far to the right. Also, you have to be very precise when tapping the projectiles as they come at you. I feel like there could be a little more spacing between you and the enemy firing the projectile as it feels a little cramped. I know a lot of work went into it and I do not want to sound like a downer, but was hoping for a little more depth...unlockables, weapon upgrades, etc. Will definitely play more to see how it develops. Ijipop Well-Known Member Jul 25, 2012 557 268 63 #13 Ijipop, Feb 7, 2017 Yeah me too. I mean it's not a bad game. The visuals are quite nice, music is good. Controls are not on par for me. But it's really playable. After an hour or so I'm on the verge of deleting it. Well spent 2$. But I won't invest more time in it. I think I'll always go back to Canabalt for a runner craving. Good job dev. But a little shallow for me. Jayg2015 Well-Known Member Jan 5, 2015 3,734 41 48 Male Player 1 Liberty city #14 Jayg2015, Feb 7, 2017 No unlockables or upgrades? Thank you for the reviews now I think I'll pass Bumpygames Well-Known Member Jul 9, 2016 336 3 18 croatia #15 Bumpygames, Feb 7, 2017 just downloaded the game, it looks intersting, Small Game size is a definitive plus today when most of the games are over 500MB of space. Thnx to the Developer for support in Radeem code. goodnightgames Well-Known Member Dec 2, 2012 584 21 18 Game Developer New York, New York http://goodnightgames.com/ #16 goodnightgames, Feb 8, 2017 Hmmm what triggered you getting out of the game? Can you elaborate? Also were you getting hit by boss 3? Can you elaborate on that? Tell me what you would like to see in an update in terms of depth, what stands out instantly as a want? Which projectiles were being weird can you elaborate more on this? So where did you cash out on the game? What was the thing that got you out? What happened with the controls? Says the guy that's begging me for promocodes in PM. Get out. Yep let me know when the video is up we should post it in here. As always feedback is great, keep it coming! We aren't dropping support for the game we plan to keep updating and the more you guys tell us the more we can change/tweak/add so that we can make the game better together. -Lawrence AppUnwrapper Well-Known Member Oct 26, 2011 4,062 3 0 http://www.appunwrapper.com/escape-games/ #17 AppUnwrapper, Feb 8, 2017 I ended my video after a few tries on the third boss. On at least one try, I don't think I got hit, but I took damage (screen started turning red) and my weapon kept downgrading anyway. At least, from watching the video again, I don't see any taken hits. And then the second stage feels way too long, dodging the fireballs. I got tired of it. goodnightgames Well-Known Member Dec 2, 2012 584 21 18 Game Developer New York, New York http://goodnightgames.com/ #18 goodnightgames, Feb 8, 2017 Ok hmmm interesting I'm looking at it right now. I think this is a matter of nerfing the projectiles a bit and changing the collision boxes, that just got added to the list. Ok so stage 4-2 just too long? Adding that to the list as well. sobriquet Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze Jul 30, 2015 1,216 1 38 #19 sobriquet, Feb 8, 2017 You guys are talking about stages. I got ,from the description, that this was an endless runner. That's the only reason I haven't bought it. So is it endless or are there levels? AppUnwrapper Well-Known Member Oct 26, 2011 4,062 3 0 http://www.appunwrapper.com/escape-games/ #20 AppUnwrapper, Feb 8, 2017 It's an auto-runner with stages. Maybe there's an endless mode after you beat the game? (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
