Just played the tutorial and button customization is desperately needed ! Agree with the swipe the knife mechanic - very satisfying. Let's play some more...
Yep make sure you post iOS reviews, i often see people raving about a game yet they never leave a review on the app store. The one liners on the app store often look very suspicious, but a decent review with a few words helps other people get the game who might have been on the fence.
Pros Gorgeous artwork Death sound from Doom Guns feel good Melee combat is nicely executed Fun Cons Needs more variance in platforms/all routes Enemies while different lack that little extra thought Leader boards slightly busted, they are there by map but not by default Explosion sound sounds off compared to other sounds HUD needs to be more transparent Overall it's a good arcade shooter/platformer, does need a little more platforming and enemy variation but it's extremely well done. Animations and artwork are nailed, some other areas could have used a bit more tuning, like level design. Worthy purchase, very good but falls short of being a masterpiece. It would be my favorite action platformer that I've played on iOS anyway.
The only thing I'm not liking is the swipe to cut - there's been numerous times I'll hit the jump button instead of swiping. If the jump button's tap area was a bit smaller, it wouldn't be so bad... But other than that, I'm really enjoying this one... the animations for slicing up zombies looks great. =oP
wow, thats some pretty impressive stuff... great visuals, controls AND gameplay (jackpot?) loving the knife mechanics/swipes for my part... surprise of the week
Yeah i'm playing it more, would prefer more platforms to jump on, at the moment its basically fire left or right. Bit of platforming action would really make this game great
agreed... the further I go, the more I want more platforming. =oP Seems to be almost all this one is missing.
Although Star Marine isn't as good as this, that's one thing I enjoyed about that game...more platforming.
I had no idea about this game before randomly finding this thread. The comparisons to metal slug and star marine sold me. Between this and a control fix for flying daggers (submitted today, I believe) it looks like a good week for side scrolling fans.
