After playing the game a bit more, I can say the controls have gotten better and I am enjoying the game greatly. Anyone who likes this should also check out Geometry Dash.
Add me to the list. Love the game on the 360, but the imprecise jumping on this version screws up perfect runs more often than not. Gonna wait for an update to hopefully square things up...
It's funny because I played the 360 demo and am doing better on this, but I don't seem to have control issues like others do. So my impressions are the direct opposite of most here. Just finished the first boss battle and am just blown away by this game. I honestly think this may end up being my favorite auto-running platformer on iOS. It's that good. And so far, an easy decision for my GoTW. Hope devs can help others with the controls because it's a simply fantastic game that no one should miss (provided they don't have control issues).
After clearing out some apps and resetting, I am no longer noticing any control issues anymore Plays every bit as good as it does on the 360. Finished off the first 10 levels all perfectly, and when I croaked, it was my own fault and not the controls. So the only issue I have now is that Game Center isn't working, but hopefully that gets sorted out soon enough...
I finally experienced some slowdown. It happened when I switched to Retro Commander Video on Level 2-4. The frames are noticeably choppy. Regular Commander Video works fine when I switch back.
I did delete and install, restart ipad etc but still I got the same problem, can not start the game all levels including starter ones are locked...
I had a problem with the controls at first, but it was because I had forgotten about the "hold to glide" mechanic, which is essential to make some of those jumps. Since then it's been plain sailing, as you can see. No, the game doesn't run silky smooth on the iPod Touch 5th Gen but I forbear because the game is fantastic. The controls are fine for me, I like that you can choose between Easy, Medium and Hard for each level and when I discovered that you can decide to (spoilered because it's more fun to discover this on your own) Spoiler jump over the checkpoint line for a points boost instead of passing through it, this became my favourite runner this year, alongside Bobbing.
Sorry but I've played this for a few hours and its great but the touch controls are really unresponsive!
Still can not play all levels are locked, I've tried reset, delete, reinstall... Am I the only one? By the way, I am using ipad2 wifi, I've downloaded from Turkish app store and I got more than 4GB free space Please devs help, thank you
Just throwing this out here. Maybe delete the app from your iTunes. And re-download it again from the store (don't worry you won't get billed twice). Just to see if that works
What's the trick to getting the "Tap" collectible in level 2-1? I know where it is but it's off screen just enough where you can't tap it. What am I missing?
Okay, I tried this and there is some marked and precise touch/response improvements. However, I still need to test the other movements' touch response times...
Does anyone know if there are those jumps where you have to be sliding and jumping at the same time in this version? It was introduced in the emerald brine on the PC version
Wow, you actually took the time to play the levels on easy medium and hard? I always just play them on hard to start and I am on the emerald brine, you seem to have put a lot of time into this lol. Do you have all the worlds beaten like this?
