Pre-ordered and been waiting for this one. Assume we won’t be seeing until 11p est? psj3809 Moderator Jan 13, 2011 12,966 718 113 England #3 psj3809, Feb 5, 2020 Does look great. Mega man style clone. Roll on 11pm GMT (ish) Royce Well-Known Member Mar 22, 2011 4,240 180 63 #4 Royce, Feb 5, 2020 Actually it’s not even out in NZ yet so it looks like it’s not a normal 11pm whatever your time is release. Maybe they’ll just pull the trigger worldwide at some point. Hopefully it doesn’t mean it won’t be out today.

The release date is not announced yet. It is called Moon Raider. It feels more polished. https://twitter.com/cascadiagames/status/1161122412467032066?s=21 Royce Well-Known Member Mar 22, 2011 4,240 180 63 #6 Royce, Feb 5, 2020 Not sure if there’s something wrong with my NZ account or if they’re just not releasing there but this has appeared in other AppStores (Australia, several countries in Asia) so I guess it will be 11pm. boydstr Well-Known Member Sep 25, 2016 155 11 18 Male Gamer Netherlands #7 boydstr, Feb 5, 2020 The second game looks really promising nice color palette en sound effects. Royce Well-Known Member Mar 22, 2011 4,240 180 63 #8 Royce, Feb 6, 2020 Oh wow the controls are so awkwardly placed on iPad as to make the game completely unplayable. I guess I’ll try it on my phone. Edit: It’s a million times better on the phone. psj3809 Moderator Jan 13, 2011 12,966 718 113 England #9 psj3809, Feb 6, 2020 There’s an update out now which says the iPad experience is improved Makara Nou Well-Known Member May 29, 2019 563 152 43 Male https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9mojIWbYFolADF7ZwPJQxA?view_as=subscriber #10 Makara Nou, Feb 6, 2020 @Royce I played with a controller. Seem decent enough. Haven't tested the touch screen yet. @psj3809 there's a bug with ipad screen ratio. The dev just fixed it cascadiagames Active Member Sep 30, 2013 29 10 3 #11 cascadiagames, Feb 6, 2020 There will be a 1.0.3 patch that will shrink the controls on iPads. I’m submitting that in the next hour. Sorry about that!

But in the menu, it's new game, load game and load game cascadiagames Active Member Sep 30, 2013 29 10 3 #13 cascadiagames, Feb 6, 2020 There’s no settings screen at the moment. That’s the same as Ammo Pigs. On desktop games, I enable a settings screen for resolution, full screen, etc.... What settings are you looking for? cascadiagames Active Member Sep 30, 2013 29 10 3 #14 cascadiagames, Feb 6, 2020 Aha. Now I see. It’s allowing you to see the desktop settings. Ok. I’ll put it in the backlog for the next update. Thanks! Royce Well-Known Member Mar 22, 2011 4,240 180 63 #15 Royce, Feb 6, 2020 Awesome, thanks! cascadiagames Active Member Sep 30, 2013 29 10 3 #16 cascadiagames, Feb 8, 2020 The 1.0.4 update was just released. It will: - un-blur the lava - fix the “window citizen” bug - remove the duplicate “load game” option on the main menu That’s in addition to the 1.0.2 and 1.0.3 updates that fixed the iPad controls.

Controls are much more responsive without the floatiness. Jstorm Well-Known Member Feb 2, 2020 1,082 474 83 Male Employed Earth #20 Jstorm, Sep 11, 2020 Still feels like the game is stuttering. I don’t know if this is due to the game actually slowing down, or enemies not having enough animation patterns. (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
