Last Bull level? We're adding a new item in the first content update that should help a little. Last Skull level? Replay the rest of the game and get high scores, and try again every once in awhile so you don't get too frustrated. The last skull level is supposed to be extremely difficult, since Skull is technically an optional level set.
This game is great! I've played nonstop today until my battery was low. I love all the unlockables and upgrades, especially all the different hats. I can't wait for the DLC and any future updates to the game (especially more levels).
I am loving this game. One of my favorites yet for my iPhone. I have never been that crazy about global leaderboards but for this game I have become very addicted to trying to get to the top, mostly because I hear there's a special hat for doing so! That being said, I've noticed that scores I get while I'm not connected to the internet aren't updated to the leaderboards when I do reestablish a connection. I have a half hour subway ride in the mornings and I love playing my iPhone games during the commute, but now I'm worried that if I get an epic score I'll be denied my rightful place on the leaderboards! Is there a chance this could be fixed? If not, I'll just have to play the game only when I'm home.
I like this game. I like it a lot. There are a couple of things though.... 1. I've seen some of the bugs which has seen me enter walls etc. 2. The more I play it, the more glitchy it seems to get. It completely crashed at one point and refused to restart. I had to reboot my phone(3gs).(I had already done this after the initial installation) 3. Ooooh how I would love some of that wonderful chip music during play. A different tune per level set would just be awesome! 4. The controls are a bit kooky. I, personally, would prefer it if the top half of the screen was set for grappling and the bottom half for walking. The frustration of grappling when trying to walk is driving me to breaking point!!! Apart from that, I can honestly say that I'm enjoying this far more than any other iPhone game so far! Bizarre! =) Can't wait for the updates!
We're doing something about this. I'm not quite sure if it will make the first content patch, though, but definitely the second if not that. CC can provide more info on this. 1. We fixed this. Again. It's probably the most persistant bug. 2. That'd odd, most people say it's really stable. I think I've crashed twice in the game, but that was in early beta in the Bat set. 3. The lack of music was a design decision (I figured people would want to concentrate or just play their own music), but it turns out a lot of people do want music. 4. We messed around with the controls a ton, and extended beta because of it. I thought we did make the screen be clearly delineated between walking and grappling areas, but I'll need to check that. It's possible that it got reverted right before we sent it for release or something, as the control areas used to be relative to your character. We're ending the 99 cent sale by late afternoon, a little longer than we were going to have it run. We're just giving review sites a little bit of extra time to cover it. We're also giving Apple a little bit of extra time to approve the lite version. If you know someone that might like the game, and they might like the game more if it's really cheap, this will be their last chance to get it at this price.
Kepa, I think the addition of music per level set would be amazing. Don't get me wrong, the game is fab as it is, but it would just add that extra something if it had a memorable tune per level set, ala, sonic 1. I can still remember each tune from every level set on sonic from all those years ago. Golden Axe too. And Altered Beast. And Outrun.... is there something wrong with me? As for the controls, they definitely seem to be relative to the player. If I'm on a swing and I dismount and then touch the very bottom right of the screen, the grapple hook shoots out again. Can be very frustrating if you're in a tight cavern. Maybe in an update also you could provide an item in the shop, at great expense, that will repel that wretched piranha-mouth-bat thing for a limited period of time, ie, a couple of seconds. Just enough to make that desperate get away! =)
My Synopsis of this thread: 1. Have an option to increase or decrease the opacity of the controls, or to have a different layout of controls. 2.Add some people that didnt like the original controls to the Beta if there are anymore slots. 3. The last Bull level is really hard. 4. The awesome Dev responding to these inquiries. 5. This game is awesome comments. PS, Was the guy who crashed JailBroken? After I JB'd I haven't had any crash even then.
Have you tried using the Shotgun on it? Also, I finally nabbed a #1 spot and got my crown! I was worried that I wouldn't be able to before the high scores shot out of my reach. Hurrah! I have bested The Silver Bull!
Great job! I even just got the crown, and I have probably been playing longer than you you might be the one to rocket the scoreboards
this is because you don't move freely through the air as in Mario Brothers. you must rely on your hookshot to swing you where you need to go. ala Bionic Commando
mebeswordguy, I had the app crash big style and had to reboot. I'm on a 3GS and it's not jailbroken. I second your no.4. It's great to have the Dev here responding to us mere mortals.
I get that, but what I'm saying is that the controls seem relative to the player, not static. If the controls had the option to set the top half of the screen as the grapple hook and the bottom half as walk, then I would know for certain that when I touch the bottom right of the screen that my hat wearing hero would walk, not attempt to grapple.
