I downloaded and played this game for 1 hour, couldnt put it down Very solid controls, music, and levels Almost seems impossible to be able to get 3 stars in certain levels, some requiring 20-25 perfect jumps but it's still a very fun and challenging game, id say the best of this week unless someone can suggest another?
First rate effort all around. Very good controls and wicked fun mechanics. And no IAP. Can't thank you enough.
We beta tested Mikey Shorts with several kids (which turned out to be amazingly helpful). One of them was a 7-year-old girl (now 8). She had a lot of fun with the game even thought she didn't really play for high scores.
Just hanging out at the top of every leaderboard no big deal Except 1-1, tied for first. Can't crack it. Anyway come and get me EDIT: Just took 1-1 back.
Oh my goodness this isn't good. I'm officially addicted and I can't put it down. I swear this is the first game where Ive only played the first level for like 30 minutes straight trying to beat peoples' high scores. Great game guys and simply wow. Really is fun for everyone, from casual to hardcore gamers alike
Just you wait ONE week. I was asked (and I happily agreed) to hold off at least a week before competing on the Leaderboards since I was a beta tester. So come next Thursday, I'll give you a challenge Edit: heh heh Maybe I can play after all Mikeg? (Boardumb = beta tester). I can't just let Boardumb win it all!
Beat Jared on two of the levels in 6!!! Woot woot! But man you are good! Edit: nvm you already beat my scores
Mikey Shorts doesn't currently support iCade. But we plan on investigating support for a future update. Will be a good excuse for us to get iCades!
GOTW stuff... thank you DEVS! thats why i like to call iOS gaming as the "great return of gameplay" (something i was really missing since the good old C64 days)
You know it's a great game when you get hand cramps! Ow my hand hurts its funny you press harder thinking it will make you go faster...this game is perfect! Thanks to the devs for making this. I hope Apple features it because it deserves recognition.
Alright, I knew this would be good...I just wasn't expecting it to be this good. It's a rare thing for me to say these days, but this makes me feel a kid again. Putting aside the whole superb speedrun aspect of the game, everything else just lives up to expectations, and hell...surpasses them. Love the exploration, the graphics, the music. Easily one of (if not) the best platformers on iOS.
I totally agree... This game was built to be played on the go. For me this is the best game this year. Why? Because I've been playing the game non-stop for 5 hours, and yes my hands hurt as well No other game has compelled me to play this long and for that it's the best game this year!
This game is so fun! I love the replayability (trying to get the shorts and all coins, then trying to get the three stars for each level). The challenge levels are great too. I love how you can just go from one level to the nexf in an endless run, so to speak. So many levels I just simply ran out of time - and some are really neat and fiendish - I just want to try them again.
I don't even know what to say at this point. We are completely blown away by everyone's positive feedback, and happy that you all are enjoying the game so much. Loving the leaderboard battle going on at the moment. Fun stuff to watch! I think it is about time to try and get some sleep. Hopefully we can get Mikey Shorts climbing the charts!
Exceptional! Literally could not put it down until I three-starred the story mode. The controls, gameplay and level design are superb. And I still have the entire challenge mode ahead of me. Great surprise tonight, thanks Mikes!
They work really well... if the default feels uncomfortable you can change the layout from the option screens. I found the default to be pretty good.
