Speedrunning Being the first official person (non developer/play tester) to finish the game, I thought I'd give speed running a go. Using the right tricks and shortcuts you can finish the game in less than 15 minutes. I did it in 13:26, but I was a bit sloppy and I think it might be possible to do it in around 10 minutes if you don't mess up anywhere. Granted, that run resulted in the grand total of 13 diamonds, so it doesn't really bring Captain Cowboy much wealth or glory. Possibly a good cardio. That said, the first playthrough I did took several hours of exploration, and even then I was a bit lucky...
This is a simple game on a grand scale. It's so beautifully realized because it's such a pure concept. Very well done, please make more games!
Wow, holy crap! :O 13 minutes is simply amazing! I've personally done it in roughly an hour or so and I thought that I held a good tempo, but shaving 45+ minutes off that is unreal.
Wow, 13 min is freaking amazing. Haven't made it to the end myself, to many other good games I'm playing in my unending back log.
I'm supporting you guys... As soon as 1.2 is live. I'm a proud owner of two iOS 7.1.2 oldies: a 4S and an iPad 3, so I'll buy as soon as the good scaling version for the 4S is live for now, I'll add an "I want it" tag in App Shopper and subscribe to this lovely thread EDIT: funny, description says "compatible with iPhone 5 or later", but you're undoubtedly fixing the scaling for the 4S. Nice one, thanks for that.
i love how the music turns more distant while the Cap flying through no-gravity zones... have you noticed that? great touch of class!
Thats exactly why i love this game even after completing it. The mood is arguably the single thing that makes this game replayable after a hard day of work!
I hadn't, but I did spot the change in underwater sections. Still trapped in my self-made prison, waiting for 1.2 to drop so I can continue! Damn you, Apple review team. I've had other apps (e.g. OneDrive) that have had two updates since it was submitted. Show some love for the little guys!
I'm really hoping the update won't mess up that savegame. It shouldn't and I even have a hard time getting my savegames off the units when testing, but if it would. I will buy you an ice cream. Just mail me your adress and you will get one. Then it could be rejected as well of course. If that is the case... I will be keeping that ice cream.
I've got some bad news; it doesn't run very well on my iPad Mini 3 at all. I know it works great on Bob's iPad though. Please report performance issues if you encounter them.
I've played very little and I'm going to sleep now, but on my 4S it seems to perform as good as the videos I've seen. Will play a bit more tomorrow and see how it goes.
