Remember this classic on the Gameboy Just bought it after watching a video on youtube of it. Seems very polished, high production values. Big animated intro. Controls are left side movement, right side jump (phew as i panicked when i didnt see any buttons on the preview screens) Just met the 'blob' for the first time. Has some voice acting. All good so far, like i say its very polished. Look forward to playing this more later Yeah sure it is as i checked out the youtube videos first and it seems the same as the Wii. Well worth picking up Dailon80 Well-Known Member Nov 10, 2014 3,574 66 48 Program Director/Radio DJ Eos #4 Dailon80, Nov 17, 2017 I have it on Xbox One used to have it on I think it was NES when I was a little kid Good platformer If you haven’t played it before it may take you a minute to get it down but it’s a good game and a classic Had no idea it was coming mobile I’m surprised psj3809 Moderator Jan 13, 2011 12,966 718 113 England #5 psj3809, Nov 17, 2017 Yeah like it when we get these surprises ! Actually ahem got a bit stuck on the first level then realised i had to go back on myself ! But a really nice surprise, really enjoying it smes3817 Well-Known Member Oct 15, 2009 1,122 10 38 Massachusetts, USA #6 smes3817, Nov 17, 2017 I'm pretty sure this was developed by WayForward too, which makes me that much more excited. dukat111 Well-Known Member Mar 23, 2010 514 94 28 #7 dukat111, Nov 17, 2017 How are the controls? psj3809 Moderator Jan 13, 2011 12,966 718 113 England #8 psj3809, Nov 17, 2017 Still enjoying this. Apparently it has 60 odd levels which sounds a lot. Surprised there was no PR for this though. Didnt have a clue it was coming out Boboy Active Member Apr 10, 2013 36 3 8 #9 Boboy, Nov 18, 2017 Mfi controls Have support for MFI controls? Saucepolicy Well-Known Member Patreon Silver Feb 18, 2009 501 4 18 Crispy ex-game developer #10 Saucepolicy, Nov 18, 2017 Yes, this is a port of Wayforward's Wii reboot. The NES version was designed by David Crane, who created many of the original Atari 2600 Activision games such as Pitfall. y2kmp3 Well-Known Member Jun 25, 2010 1,784 3 38 #11 y2kmp3, Nov 19, 2017 I, too, am amazed by the appearance of this port and am surprised why this has not garnered more media attention. I wonder if the prior release in the Wii has dampened the enthusiasm, but I seem to recall that the Wii reception was actually quite good, so I am puzzled by this. boydstr Well-Known Member Sep 25, 2016 155 11 18 Male Gamer Netherlands #12 boydstr, Nov 22, 2017 I ask the same question some days ago but nobody replied so it seems that it is touchscreen only it should be great that any new released game has controller support. Brightsiderus Well-Known Member Feb 1, 2017 2,234 540 113 #13 Brightsiderus, Nov 23, 2017 Great game! Got it for free in the majesco twitter contest james.miller Active Member Jul 5, 2016 40 0 0 Dropout!

Played the original on nes. Plays great and controls are excellent! Im so fed up with freemium games, unless they have a one time buy in to get rid of ads or something like that. Baron Cappuccino Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze Aug 1, 2011 266 14 18 Member-Owner Steampunk Cafe, LLC Plainfield, CT #16 Baron Cappuccino, Nov 24, 2017 I used to love and hate A Boy and His Blob on the NES as a kid because it was such a cool premise to me but so beyond my ability. Ive added myself to the list of fifteen or so people in the world who know this is now on iOS. Cant wait. squirpe Well-Known Member Oct 15, 2008 163 1 18 Software Developer Honolulu, HI #17 squirpe, Nov 24, 2017 Ahh what a nice surprise. Bought straight away, great so far. Hope it does well.
