First of all, thanks for clearing up what Sanuku may have missed in his initial impressions, and for letting us know that the game is still worth getting. I find tour tone is a bit condescending though, and calling Sanuku names and calling out on his none-native language isnt gonna help build up a rep in the forums. It might just be me, but your choice of words came out as offensive to me, especially when you ended with "Unless you are Mr Sanuku." Calling him your dear friend with that tone isnt helping either. Other than that, again, thanks for removing my doubts in the game.
Well i feel better now about the controls, the 'invisible joystick' thing seems fine. Can you not just 'tap' the right side of the screen to jump ? Frustrating if you have to swipe. That didnt work too well in the He-Man game and thankfully they changed that. Its not a 'show stopper' but just nearly every platform game i've got you press a button or the screen to jump (not swipe). Just want someone to clarify that please !! Thanks (Mr Fussy Platform fan
Swipe on right side to jump in swiped direction. Tapping won't do you any good. Little awkward at first, but you get used to it.
Bought! Still downloading. I still haven't beaten xcom but am near the end (classic mode). haven't even started Gloomy Hollow yet which i picked up the same night with xcom, but i'll be playin Limbo for sure probably after xcom
Hhhmm,since this game is atmospheric I think it's was a brilliant move to implement an invisible joystick..So that it won't bother with the aesthetics..
*facepalm* Ok, Ms or Mr Leanders, swinging that big linguistical whip, but haven't even read the forum rules? Cool. We don't critizise linguistic mistakes here. Let me tell ya, we have a lot of people from all countries on touch Arcade. Not everyone is speaking English as well as you, my dear freund, it's not everyone's native tongue. But you came in, beaching around like that 14-years-old girl I saw just yesterday. Netiquette... I really don't know why you haven't picked up a thing or two on the Internets. Try holding back yer snooty attitude, else you won't stay here for long, I assume. And don't mind my blabbering. I am just some creepy German forum nazi.
Agreed. We should all be happy that we can communicate with people all over the world on TA. [/offtopic]
We're more like a U.N.O. of Gamers. Edit: lol, just noticed that sink or swim is from Germany, too. Never noticed before.
Darn I need another Giftcard... I've been waiting (hoping) for (that) Limbo to (would) hit the AppStore for years. =oD
Ahahha! Admittedly, im a Limbo virgin too. I saw my friends play it, and i did like it, but never really got to play. So now... MY TIME COMETH.
Thanks, doesnt sound too bad. Either way i'll get this game later. Its great its coming out tonight rather than the usual wednesday night (in the UK). Roll on midnight !
Ok first impressions after about 30mins of gameplay. Controls are smooth once you actually learn how to control the kid. Game is indeed creepy, with spiders and hanged men with gruesome deaths. Although blood is black like most of the game's color. I think the game can be finished in an hour if you do a speed run or something
