I remember following Touch Arcades posts on this game with interest, but somewhere along the way it must have dropped off my radar until today, when Id noticed it had gone free for the first time. Im sorry about that, because what I have played so far has been excellent, and if you enjoy platformers you shouldnt hesitate in adding this to your collection on iOS. Its right up there with classics like Super Phantom Cat and Mos Speedrun. No IAP/Ads. Heres TAs 4.5/5 review: http://toucharcade.com/2016/12/21/le-parker-sous-chef-extraordinaire-review/
Hi all - we are still around Thanks for the kind words and support! We have released an update to the game that addresses several complaints regarding difficulty: -We have done away with lives. We are in agreement that the game is greatly improved without worrying about lives and being able to continue from checkpoints as many times as you'd like. -Controls should feel a bit tighter, not as slippery. -We've addressed the difficulty of some levels. Additionally, it now has full iPhone X support. We definitely will continue supporting the product, as well as continue work on our next game. Thanks again!
