    Nope. But that's irrelevant: there have been plenty of games I've beta tested that I thoroughly disliked.

    I'm not trying to pick fights here. I simply think that our understanding of what constitutes good game design is pretty different. And that has little to do with pretty graphics.

    BTW, when I have a real conflict of interest I'll let you know. (That's why I rarely comment on anything by Crescent Moon.)

    There ya go Eli, and don't forget your giving up sarcasm as well! Anyway, I take your reviews for what they are, an opinion. Sometimes I agree and sometimes as in the case of shadow gun I don't. Either way I enjoy your reviews, and I know the points you bring up are always valid, it's that I don't always see the points as important as you do.

    Anyway, I am picking this up tonight based on squares opinion, and will enjoy the review tomorrow.

    Phosphor Games here- exciting to see all these impressions! We are big fans of the Touch Arcade community, so this response is amazing to see on our first iOS game!

    We finally started a developer diary if anyone wants to check it out – here is a cool thing for anyone to try: If you build your character with a focus on ranged and defense skills, you can beat the entire game with just using the crossbow – no sword required. We really wanted to let players chose what skills they want to use to win the game. You can check out more on this here:

    Any quick first impressions from the new batch of US App Store-goers? Even just a simple "Holy crap it's awesome" or "Need to spend a bit more time with it".
