I can t see my life on my XR sadly... plus i found very unaccurate so far as many times i m just taping the screen, the game considered it as a swipe and dogded instead of kicking the butt of the bad guy... frustrating...
The developer said the hp update may come out tomorrow, just wait for it. About the combat part, just hold and aim to an enemy to use heavy attack with light combo attack, if enemy doesn’t die, move away to cancel the light attack cooldown then move back to perform another light combo attack, and try to attack long range enemies as soon as possible, you can try to parry enemy’s bullets as well.
That i do know no worry, i m just saying that often when i tap, it dodges instead of attacking. I guess a sensitivity option could be welcomed.
While it‘s not a big love at first sight/play, it is def a „must play again“ after i died. That‘s already a real good thing. I‘m too short in, but i already encountered a few different foes with different patterns/shots/styles. Intriguing. The swipe controls work well and you‘ll adapt quite quick to them, imho. My big complaint goes to the music/sfx department. Having just one button to mute all is simply an absolute NO-GO in my books! Personally, i have problems to hear and get attached to the sfx sounds. Pity! I might report (much) later on my progression. Good luck, Dev!
Excellent review on PocketGamer https://www.pocketgamer.com/articles/079965/immortal-rogue-review/ Great work dev!
While I would prefer more of a "joystick" for controls, having no issues with the swipes. This game also gets better/more fun the more you play and unlock things. I was initially frustrated as I never had the money to get new weapons, but some of the unlocks help with that the more you play.
I’m looking forward to the update to see my hp on the iPhone XR. Still loving it in the meantime though. Could someone let me know if your health regenerates back to full after each “era”? It would help to know that as I try and keep track without the hp bar. Thanks!
Hp doesn't regenerate between eras. 'Managing your health regeneration is a big part of the game, so I can imagine your frustration. I'll let you all know when the fix is live.
You look at the outside of an Indian Resturant and think “it looks okay, I will give it a try.” The manager says “It will cost you $8AUD to have a meal.” You agree and pay. You get served the meal and don’t like the curry taste. You say to the manager that you don’t like curry and would have much prefered a plain hamburger. You leave the resturant with no intention of returning. The manager thinks to themselves “maybe if I added hamburgers to the menu I might get more people to come.” Options, where possible, are always a good thing. I played the beta and struggled with the swipe controls. I found it difficult to use my power attack and often ended up confusing my movement with the attack and then getting killed while trying to activate it. It simply is not a control system that I liked. At least in my case I got a free sample of the curry dish.
Thanks so much for the quick fix! Love supporting devs that are so responsive and obviously care about the community! I feel like I’m going to spend a lot of time with this one!
Sorry to disagree with you, but an authentic Indian restaurant would never consider serving plain hamburgers to cater to the masses. I think your example actually proves the opposite effect, the developer/restaurant owner is staying true to themselves knowing what their best product or service is, and is not going to sacrifice this to cater to every individual need.
Bug found, couldn’t access the rest of the area in this location as all three paths wouldn’t let me go through.
Hard, hard, hard disagree. Not all art is for everyone, nor should it be. This game was literally built around its unique control system, and changing it or even adding different control options would make it a different game. It's not always about getting the most users, not everyone wants to be the Thomas Kinkade of game development, some people actually want to make something interesting and different. In your case you were fortunate to try the game for free and concluded that the control scheme is not for you. Which is fine, as there's no shortage of other games for you to play. I am totally not opposed to free demos or free to try options especially in the case of game's that do something out of the ordinary, like this one. I'm also not opposed to a restaurant giving out free samples so you can see if you like what they're serving before you spend the money. But obviously not all restaurants do that, just as not all games have demos. As an aside, all this talk about Indian food and hamburgers has me thinking that a bunch of Indian spices in a burger patty with some sort of awesome yogurt sauce would make for an amazing burger, so maybe my analogy does end up falling apart in the end
