Very bad redribbon Well-Known Member Jun 11, 2010 2,799 53 48 entepreanur,programmer #5 redribbon, Oct 18, 2018 the only problem i had with the control is when you have to use the magic marker ability and the position is near the left joystick, no matter what you do you keep end up slides the joystick up instead of moving the ground up. so you gotta move closer to the magic marker position to make it further from the joystick. some first minutes gameplay on Xs Max: Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel psj3809 Moderator Jan 13, 2011 12,964 717 113 England #6 psj3809, Oct 18, 2018 Graphics are pretty amazing. Controls so far (done the intro chapter) are okay but shame you can’t reposition them. But stunning graphics Brightsiderus Well-Known Member Feb 1, 2017 2,233 538 113 #7 Brightsiderus, Oct 18, 2018 Yeah, but that’s a pain, especially later in the game. Also, it’s hard to crouch and move when you run away. redribbon Well-Known Member Jun 11, 2010 2,799 53 48 entepreanur,programmer #8 redribbon, Oct 18, 2018 yeah, just found out on that in later level when i have to create a vine and its located very close to the incline ground, took me some times to make it work. its started to get really annoying for me too shfrost Well-Known Member Apr 9, 2010 432 10 18 Artist Wooded area #9 shfrost, Oct 18, 2018 No mfi? And maybe wonky controls? Wallet on pause. Gambler likes this.

One small tap and you are at the beginning of the level Brightsiderus Well-Known Member Feb 1, 2017 2,233 538 113 #11 Brightsiderus, Oct 18, 2018 Uh... I dunno where this gone wrong. In the end of the game I got 79 eyes out of 75 and 19 pieces of amulet out of 18. After grabbing 19th piece the game freezes Boboy Active Member Apr 10, 2013 36 3 8 #12 Boboy, Oct 18, 2018 Have support MFI controls? Gambler likes this.

But he used a question mark and also hasn’t bought the game so it looks like that was more of an assumption. Iirc the predecessor game Max & the Magic Marker didn’t have mfi support so probably this game doesn’t as well. I’d also be very interested to definitely know if the game supports mfi controllers or not. With the touch controls apparently being poorly implemented I’m still on the fence about pressing that buy button too. I liked Magic Marker and the screenshots of Brotherhood look great but if it doesn’t have mfi support I’ll wait until there (hopefully) is an update that at least let’s you reposition the touch controls. I’d wish Apple would finally add something along a "supports mfi yes/no" line to the App Store game informations. I know there are some lists and SteelSeries even has an app with supported games but none of those are really complete and up to speed. For about every third game somebody here asks about mfi support and just a small info like that in the App Store descriptions would finally fix this issue. dbgraphic likes this. metalcasket Moderator Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze May 24, 2010 11,065 1,342 113 Deepest Circle, Hel #15 metalcasket, Oct 19, 2018 Man, yeah...sometimes the controls are not perfect (even though they’re up to par most of the time), but I’ll be damned if this isn’t one of my favorite iOS puzzle platformers of all time. I’m on 3-2 now and this thing keeps on throwing surprise after surprise at me. I can’t put it down and I have no clue how I’m gonna go through with my “Delete instantly after completion” habit once I’m done with this. It’s so much fun. Taeles Well-Known Member Patreon Silver Aug 5, 2011 1,253 37 48 #16 Taeles, Oct 20, 2018 Love the visuals, voice work, everything looks amazing but when i first read action platformer i imagined Playdead's Inside and Limbo, or a bit of metroidvania like Grimvalor. The touch mechanics at play here, not so sure bout it. Lull4by Well-Known Member Aug 21, 2014 767 313 63 #17 Lull4by, Oct 20, 2018 To me, any platform game without MFI controller support is really a deal breaker, unless there are some cool elements like roguelike, I will wait until the game support it. tekchic Well-Known Member Jun 5, 2009 452 29 28 Female Software Developer Phoenix, AZ http://www.tekchic.com #18 tekchic, Oct 21, 2018 The graphics are fantastic and the gameplay is fun, but I'm terrible at Metroidvania. With the controls, I can barely make it past the very beginning when the monster's smashing up the mountain behind Max. I bet it'd play so much smoother with MFi. FlashbulbGames Member Oct 5, 2016 22 1 1 #19 FlashbulbGames, Dec 18, 2018 Hey guys! We just released an update for Max - The Curse of Brotherhood, adding MFI controller support among other things. I've also submitted a discount that should go live soon, shaving a dollar off the price for a limited time.
