Dude, don't worry! You didn't waste your buck, this is probably one of the best bucks I've spent all year!! I've been playing it non-stop since it's release and I've still playing!! It's definitely worth it!
Ok, you can borrow my snuggle blanket, cause it seems like it is getting cold! Haha Well, let me get my stories straight, then this game was made by two developers that met on Touch Arcade, so Mikeg123 is one, and you are the other? So guess I gotta support you guys if you met here on Touch Arcade! Or am I getting my stories wrong again? Haha
This game kicks serious butt. Seriously. It's right up my alley; I love speedruns with my whole being. You guys working on a new project yet? Or just working on support and updates for Mikey?
Tied now! I Think I can improve, I'll try again tomorrow. I literally have not gotten past level 2-3 yet, and as for speedrunning, I haven't gotten past 1-2! Crazy fun leaderboard competition!

This is a GREAT game! And it's no wonder why, with respectful nods to the Mario & Mega Man series. The controls are indeed flawless! (Some of these big name developers need to take a few lessons from Mike & Greg. It's amazing that two Touch Arcade Forum readers can produce a game of this caliber, first time out. Congratulations gentlemen! -Rick
This has only been out a week or so and it is really successful. I really like this game. I spoke to the developer, and he would like to have more story and challenge mode levels.
Oh, never thought of these types of games as being casual. Guess that's it then, I prefer a more hardcore platformer
iCade has been ordered, and I should have my hands on it this Wed! Can't wait to play Mikey Shorts on it (once I get around to the code of course).
Great game, it is a lot of fun, kind of a fast paced Super Mario Brothers race to the finish. I have to say controls wise, it controls the best out of any platform game I have played, also like the retro sounds and music, they are very good. Plays equally well on my new ipad or iphone 4, and the file size is small, so that is a huge plus. I usually don't like platformers on ios because of control issues, but your game handles well and is not frustrating like some platformers get. Can you add an option to hide the joystick controls and buttons in the settings, or maybe make the joystick controls more transparent? This is the only thing that I could think of that would improve the game for me. Great game though, simple, small, and fun! Good job!
I believe he's talking about the developers of Gasketball. Both of the guys who made this are named Mike.
We're really glad you enjoyed the game! Even though we made it so that the controller buttons never cover up the game play, I think we will add an option to hide and/or increase the transparency of the controller buttons. We'll have to hide the buttons for iCade and joypad support, so it would be easy enough to add an option so that users can hide or increase transparency explicitly.
