I had that problem at first - and then once I realized that the jump mechanics don't trigger until you let your finger off the screen (as opposed to triggering right when you touch the screen), it became a lot easier to control.
That still didn't help. Still stuck on the zipline on level 5. I can't believe people are praising the touch controls for this game... Sure, they work for the first few levels but you will slowly realize they are terrible. And it is not the touch screens fault or my fault. It's the developers fault for not testing their game before they release it. I tried it a hundred different times and it keeps jumping at the wrong time or making me fall... Has anyone really beaten level 1-5? Unless your incredibly lucky I don't see how it's possible. Edit: Ok, I finally beat it... Sheesh that was hard. Hope their aren't anymore zip line levels in the game...
Yeah - beat 1-5 - I'm on 2-3 right now... but trying to find the hidden exit in 1-13 before I go on...
Inspiration, I understand...but did you really have to lift all those quotes from MaXplosion's reviews and use them in Ms. Splosion Man's screenshots? Damnit, that's taking things too far! *folds arms* I...err...I think it's best I leave this thread before someone who's not aware of what I'm talking about decides to pelt me with exploding gummy bears. *runs away*
Attained celebrity level in 1-11, every level done in world 1-2 (Normal or secret) and now starting world 3. I found that the ziplines are a bit laggy so i just tap before I reach the end of it.
And finished! Some levels from world 3 were really hard... And don't get me started on the last boss, that was ridiculously funny XD Now I want the maw or comic jumper on IOS!
Congrats!! I'm still in the middle of world 2, but went back to 10 Tier all the world 1 stages. =oP And yeah... ANYTHING else from Twisted Pixel on the iOS would be a friggin dream. =oD
Got celebrity status on 2-11 today. That one is easy for me and it only took one try per upgrade, but there sure are a lot of tiers before celebrity. Also, started on level 3 and it's a bitch, but it's starting to click a bit and I'm about half way done. I wasn't sure what to think about this game right off the bat, but damn if its not one of the best games on ios. According to gamecenter I am ranked in the top 25, but that doesn't make much sense to me since I haven't even finished the game.
so would you give this more than 3 out of 5? looking at the first page of the touch arcade review section this has the lowest score... hell even sonic dash scored better!
Do you have plans to remove the "pay to unlock levels" scheme and the heavy IAP. This is not what I was expecting from Ms.Splosion Man.
Twisted pixel I'd love to see if an update is coming soon in terms of removing the freemium model from a premium game. Its a brain-dead pay structure that I hope you change in an update very soon.
I can enjoy this one now, and its a lot different to what I played on my old iPhone 4, anti-aliasing, welcome! And those speedy loading screens, and all, another game to enjoy without drawbacks
Agree with that. Also at nearly a gig its HUGE for a platformer. I remember when Fancy Pants came out at a silly size (about 600 gig) and the update changed that to about 240 after lots of compression.
