Don’t know why but this looks just short of tempting to me #ponders Decent upgrade tree? Or just three ships? chengchisang Well-Known Member May 25, 2018 119 31 28 #4 chengchisang, Mar 7, 2019 MFi controller support? psj3809 Moderator Jan 13, 2011 12,964 717 113 England #5 psj3809, Mar 7, 2019 Just bought it as i love the dev and its cheap as chips Controls work very well, its obviously a portrait game. Let go of your finger to jump, couple of control options (i've just gone with 'absolute'). Looking forward to playing this more later Lull4by Well-Known Member Aug 21, 2014 767 313 63 #6 Lull4by, Mar 7, 2019 The game just got Silver review (4/5) by Pocket Gamer, congratulations!

This pass will mostly be focused on making the unlocks a bit easier, but I'll also doublecheck on the GC functionality (had a report it wasn't working). If you have any other fixes/tweaks you'd like to see, definitely let me know (and if it doesn't make this update, I will probably do another early next week). Luke Anotherkellydown likes this.

I absolutely love this style of game and you really nailed the sense of speed and dread (Sandworms). I was coming to report that Game Center isn’t showing any scores, but glad you already knew about that. And that’s my only “issue”. Plays like a dream! I can see fans on arcade style games liking this one a lot. Awesome job! Andy C83 Well-Known Member Oct 20, 2010 3,630 25 48 Over the Rainbow #9 Andy C83, Mar 7, 2019 Have only played the Silicon level so far, with the default controls. Smooth as silk. Have unlocked Behemoth for Silicon but haven’t given it a spin yet, looking forward to it.

Does anyone have any tips for getting past the giant steel worms? I think I managed to get past one so far (and it seemed like it was more luck than skill). Every time I try and get past them, even with jumping, I end up hitting them. Thanks! radiangames Well-Known Member Patreon Silver Sep 24, 2011 158 60 28 Game Developer United States http://radiangames.com #11 radiangames, Mar 7, 2019 Version 1.04 was submitted. Here are the changes: * Decreased unlock scores for pretty much everything * Fixed GameCenter leaderboard issues * Jump sound changed/increased * Increased volume of some worm sounds * Turned off GIF recording on some mid-level devices (default, can still turn it on in more options) Still mystified by the review comment about the sound effects. The jump was too quiet, but everything else seems to be working fine for me. Also open to suggestions for adding for more variety/depth. Thanks!

Sorry. Do other portrait mode games have it? I'd have to get a new controller, but if this is a common thing, I can look into it. anthony78 Well-Known Member Nov 13, 2015 3,125 703 113 #14 anthony78, Mar 7, 2019 Thought the TA review of this was a little harsh. Controls are perfect and no complaints about the camera angle either. Fantastic game!
