Everything about this screams classic and takes me back to my youth. psj3809 Moderator Jan 13, 2011 12,964 717 113 England #3 psj3809, Nov 6, 2017 I really like this dev. Played one of his other platformers Mahluk a lot Paid to remove the ads. The graphics I love but the main issue for me is that you cant slide your finger from left to right on the buttons. You just keep going in the same direction. Contacted the dev about this in Mahluk but no response. Still looks great but frustrating you cant slide your finger over the buttons ColeDaddy Silver Supporter<br>Moderator Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze Mar 20, 2010 4,232 131 63 Male Sojourner Washington D.C. #4 ColeDaddy, Nov 6, 2017 Last edited: Nov 6, 2017 I paid for the iap.

Qwertz555 Well-Known Member May 22, 2010 2,318 29 48 #5 Qwertz555, Nov 7, 2017 I always thought that this Dev has a big potential to make a top platformer (see his other games). So far i can't tell if this one stands out, because it's unplayable for me as it is. Sorry, but he keeps making the same mistakes (maybe only for me!) over and over. As already written above, you can't slide between the left-right buttons, you have to lift your thumb to change the direction. A big no-go in my platformer books. And again, he offers no option to rearrange the jump/shoot/... buttons ourselves. Yes, i'm fighting the controls as well and not the enemies on screen. Very pity. As soon as he (hopefully) updates these options, my money goes in his direction super quickly. I like his artwork and 8bit sounds. rhinofinger Well-Known Member Dec 10, 2013 69 4 8 #6 rhinofinger, Nov 7, 2017 I think Ive encountered a bug - I cant get past level 5 (the Eyog boss battle). I fight the boss and he explodes/dies when he reaches half of his health bar. I collect the coins and stuff he drops, the screen fades to black, and Im back at the level select screen. Level 6 is still locked, as if level 5 was still not completed. I recently paid some coins to unlock the Mace, if it matters. Like the other commenters so far, Im not thrilled with the left/right controls either - I sometimes instinctively slide my finger from right to left, or dont pick my finger up as much as I thought, wanting to change direction, but my character keeps moving right. bigrand1 Well-Known Member Apr 23, 2010 4,968 7 38 Geriatric Party Animal California, USA #7 bigrand1, Nov 7, 2017 My thoughts exactly! Im gonna wait til the controls are addressed! # Charliepinkytoe Member Jan 8, 2015 7 0 0 #8 Charliepinkytoe, Nov 7, 2017 Steam Release Will you be releasing this on Steam, and if so will you implement Steam Achievements?..hope to see this on steam soon and good luck, I'm a fan of your games..

Please could you also update the controls on Mahluk.

I am checking Snooptalian Well-Known Member Sep 12, 2009 1,936 8 38 #18 Snooptalian, Nov 10, 2017 Glad you can swipe for the directional controls now. Really hope the option to swap the jump and attack buttons can be added in next. Just can't get used to the way they're setup now. Also achievements via GC would be great too... hyun-ah New Member Nov 10, 2017 3 0 0 Nurse England #19 hyun-ah, Nov 10, 2017 I adore the mood of this one! Graphics and Gameplay are lovely, but like others have said, the jump/attack really REALLY needs the option to be reversed. Every time I died so far, it's because of the controls which is a shame. I hope the dev has the time and will to fix that. serkanos Active Member Dec 26, 2014 41 0 6 #20 serkanos, Nov 10, 2017 Updated level 5 shake problem and iphone X ui problems.The update is probably available today. Jump attack button reverse will be 1.04 update. Thanks for feedbacks (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
