    Wandake does Metal Slug. DELICIOUS.

    I took one look at the trailer for this and knew it was going to be good, then read back through the previous pages to confirm what I already thought.

    Now it's time to download.

    My offer still stands. I've been playing this game on and off all day and i'm not even remotely tired of it. I look forward to ratcheting up the difficulty and giving it another go. The only other game I was this excited to play was gear of war 1. Imo its right up there with the best of them. Kudos to the developer for creating such a masterpiece!

    Yep - i've been travelling with work all week and tracking what look like very poor releases. This has brightened my weekend. Seeing it compared to Metal Slug and Ghosts and Goblins by psj got me. Great game and actually would be perfect on iCade. Well done.

    I think it's safe to say this is one of 2012's best action shooter releases.

    One advice, ask around in the forums if it works on an outdated device first before buying. The devs may overlook to change the description on the appstore. Most of the good looking releases now will probably give the older devices a hard time at reading and playing them.

    Still downloading, but I am wondering if this will be the first ever Contravania. If there is any Metroid in there, it would be the first Controidvania.

    What made Castlevania and Metroid click for me is the vast areas and the exploration involved. This doesnt have any, but it does everything it offers at the highest grade.

    Click report in iTunes at the record of your purchase of the game and say its not compatible with your device and you'll get a refund from Apple without any bother.
    Some games just won't run on older devices.
    And the developer can't really give you a refund from here as Apple actually has that money at the moment.
    But the report in iTunes should work out for you.

    I hate games like zombieville. There are a lot on the AppStore. Not meaning to offend anyone, they are so dull, the gameplay is basically non-existent, graphics are sub par. They are worse than the worst of snes/genesis games. I'd compare this title more to metal slug. Or shank. Far less frantic than MS. No less enjoyable though. Best game in it's genre for ios devices.
    There are a lot of platforming elements after the first batch of levels. Multiple teirs to jump to. Lots of pits. And, a classic, spikes to fall onto and die.
    As for IAP, never felt compelled to consider it and I'm on the second to last level.
    To sum it up, great game. Buy it.

    I was a bit quick to complain about the lack of platforming, it takes a few stages but the levels get more complex as you go.

    I am finding things a bit easy and full starring a level doesn't seem to take any effort, not sure what the metric is being based on? Being an arcade game I don't understand the omission of achievements or mini goals which would prolong longevity, I would love to see these in a future update as well as some extra weight added to the star system itself.

    Still a fun and nicely done game but would score it a fiver if there was a bit more to come back for.
