    Just played and wow, what a rush. I love that you swipe different directions to do different things. The controls need improvement a little bit, because they don't respond for me right away. Also, I love how you tap and hold the screen to skip the story :).

    Keep up the great work and I know a true gamer needs this for there time killer games :).

    Wow like everyone else I am pleasantly surprised. Fantastic game and the controls are very innovative and work perfectly. The graphics are very well done too. This is a very unique game and I see it doing really well on the AppStore. I like the whole look and feel of this game. Like the animated cartoon in the beginning and then the tutorial to start off was done perfectly. The level designs are great and offer a wide variety of obstacles to avoid and enemies to shoot as well as having to earn all three badges making each level have a ton of re-playability until you fully complete it. Well done NCsoft!! Thanks for the code I will be playing this for a long time!

    Haven't got to play much (because I'm at work) but I can already say that I love it! The artwork is great and I love the narrative. There's collectables and upgrades. I can tell this is going to be something special. I'll report back with more impressions once I get to sink my teeth in it more.

    This game is kind of fantastic. It can be frustrating and lacks a bit of polish in the visual department, but wow, I really wasn't expecting such deep gameplay. It's like Splosion Man meets Sonic meets endless runner. Really diggin' it. The level of challenge feels steep, yet remembering to utilize all the abilities at your disposal makes most of it possible. Enjoying the upgrades as well.

    All in all, a damn fine job. Folks need to be looking out for this one!

    This game is amazing! It's something different, that really works. I love the controls, and the intensity of all the levels. I'll post something more in-depth this weekend, once I've had a chance to play more! :)

    And it's not an easy game as you progress which is nice for a change. The AppStore is filled with easy casual games but this is definitely a true gamer's game. Well done

    Once you change the weapon, it will appear to the character, even in the main menu. Cool!

    All I can say is I'm impressed by the polish of the game. The controls are spot on, and I love the animations and overall art direction of the game. I have no problems whatsoever with the gameplay, its quite addictive. Its platforming, with swipe controls, and it works!

    I agree that this game is very polished with an entertaining character. The controls work smoothly but for me took some getting use to because I remain unaccustomed to swipe controls. However part of the fun is choreographing jumps to avoid attack which works well. Although I wish the attack options were more interactive than auto-attack it does work well allowing for care to precision avoidance tactics. This plays a bit like a more complicated League of Evil with swipe controls. I appreciate the early release code and am looking forward to more from NCSoft; although I wod be curious to see an alternative control configuration option if it would not detract from game balance. Otherwise a tight knit dodge game.

    If nothing else App Store needs more cats with guns; it's about time felines took up arms.

    If anything, I would say this is a cross between an endless runner/platformer and a bullet hell shooter.

    The most striking similarity is to Wind-up Knight for me, a game that I also loved. (and those of you who are enjoying this should also try)

    Either way, a damn good game for sure.

    Definitely one of coolest, most challenging things to come along in a while. It's really refreshing to see something break away from the glut of runners/platformers. This is the best of both worlds, while still making a perfect fit for iOS.

    Well that just sold it for me! Wind-Up Knight is a 5-star game for me and one of my favorite platformer/endless runner mixes of all time!

    The main difference is that you have more character control on this game than in Wind-Up Knight, which opens up another layer of exploration. Project 83113 is also not timed, so you can take your time and try different routes, search for secret items, etc. In other words, it's much more like a standard platformer and less like an endless runner (level-based or not). The way energy works adds yet another tactical layer -- special attacks deplete your health, so you have to constantly figure out what's best approach to your enemies.

    Though there are similarities, this game has way more depth than Wind-Up Knight.

    I finished this last night and will be working for all the achievements now. I was hoping that world 4 would have 9 levels like the other worlds but it only has 2. I even thought that the somewhat open space in the upper lefthand corner of the world map would be a surprise world 5... maybe room for possible update?? Regardless this is an amazing game, one of the best on ios. I hope to see more levels or a sequel.
