If the dev is here, can we please get more button control options? I'd much prefer the tilt buttons on opposite sides. Also, a sensitivity setting would be nice. I appreciate having an alternate control scheme, but the buttons don't feel good compared to tilt right now. djstout Well-Known Member Jul 21, 2011 2,685 105 63 Sportscaster & football (soccer) coach Taiwan & Japan #6 djstout, Mar 16, 2017 Thanks guys, then I'll get it! Hambo12 Well-Known Member Jul 23, 2012 1,943 28 48 on the internet #7 Hambo12, Mar 16, 2017 this game is really cute the visuals are adorable and music is nice. you can play by tilting or choose buttons in settings. left and right button to move and a jump button. it feels like you're moving the world as you move you collect bugs dumplings etc and you get 3 star rating if you do all 3 objectives for a level there are 5 worlds. highly recommend for the price ROGER-NL Well-Known Member May 21, 2012 4,030 340 83 Male Gamer. THE NETHERLANDS #8 ROGER-NL, Mar 16, 2017 Fun and great looking game, my only complaint is that the control buttons on the left are too big and to wide apart, it's hard to play this way on my Pro, so please smaller buttons and closer too eachother, I can play this way it's not troublesome, I got my Pro on a stand and just put it a bit more to the left so I can get better on those buttons. The game itself is great fun, great song and music, and it looks great, an easy reccomondation.

Mooro Well-Known Member Jul 13, 2010 198 2 18 #10 Mooro, Mar 16, 2017 LocoRoco was one of my favourite games on PSP. This looks like a great attempt to bring it that style of game to iOS. broopa Well-Known Member Jul 2, 2009 49 6 8 #11 broopa, Mar 16, 2017 So far I love it, the button controls are more of my play style, but the tilt controls weren't that bad. I loved LocoRoco and Rolando and this brings back all the good feels from those games. pxlsasho New Member Mar 16, 2017 3 0 0 Lead artist and founder of "Catfishbox" Indie Stud Lviv, Ukraine #12 pxlsasho, Mar 16, 2017 Hi there!

The big thing that it's missing is the ability to turn the world completely upside down so you're able to go back to a place that you've missed. There are too many times when I miss the jump, and I'm pushing the button to turn the world a bit more to the left or to the right, but it's not able to. I guess it would help if the view was a little bit further out so you can anticipate the gaps or what's ahead of you. This also happens when there's an enemy in front of you, and you really don't have enough time to avoid or jump over. All in all, a really good game. Great for kids and adults, and I would recommend purchasing it. UPDATE I just finished the first chapter and I'm changing my review slightly. I am changing my rating from a 4 star to a 3 star. The controls are not great, but they are saying it will be fixed so I will be patient. What I can't stand is how zoomed in you are to the character. There are so many times where you don't even get a chance to see what's ahead that you are either missing a hidden path, or you hit an enemy. It's frustrating to say the least. The music and visuals are still fantastic, and the storyline is made for kids which is cool with me. I just wish the camera was a bit further back!!!!! Would love to know if this would be possible for the devs to do... Pony Well-Known Member Sep 28, 2011 470 0 16 The Netherlands #15 Pony, Mar 16, 2017 From the trailer I already knew this was an insta buy. Having played a bit of Rolando back in the day and having played Loco Roco to death on my PSP, this looks like the next best thing! Gameplay on YouTube convinced me only further. Then I check the price. Are you serious!? Only two bucks!? *SMASHES BUY BUTTON* Misguided Well-Known Member Jan 27, 2009 2,346 19 38 #16 Misguided, Mar 16, 2017 Hi, Oleksandr, just to be clear what I am asking for is to have the tilt buttons separated,with one tilt button on the left and one on the right. Maybe you could even make it so pressing both buttons jumps (exactly as Loco Roco did it iirc) so you only need two buttons. DonnyDJ76 Well-Known Member Nov 1, 2011 1,793 58 48 Male Teacher Hackensack, NJ #17 DonnyDJ76, Mar 16, 2017 Dare I ask...Is this Game Center integrated?
