    I have had this bug occur multiple times in the past. At those times, I wished there was a force SUBMIT button to push my score onto their servers.

    Thankfully it's rare and I let it be.

    I'm guessing we won't see any new content until Pocket Trains is done.

    This game was just a quick money grab. NimbleBit seems to be heading down the Zynga path. Definitely lost some faith in the company after this. Won't be so quick to purchase IAP next time at least.

    I maxed all the characters and can't get more than 2700 kills, this is with kishi leading. Any tips for me?

    Also. I still couldn't figure this out for myself. The shield. Is it also time based? As in if you're perfect it doesn't run out at all? I know if you collide it's like an extra life; but does it get dull because I'm being hit by projectiles or just time running it out?

    The shield have hp. So hit by a few bone, it fade, but still wall-collide protected.

    If someone has an Ouya, it'd be interesting to hear about it ;)

    Downloading it now. Will return with impressions shortly.

    Well, I will say it's been a long time since I've sucked at this game. Everyone back at level 1 for the first time in months!

    - It looks gorgeous on my 55" HDTV! Much better than other mobile ports I've seen, like Jetpack Joyride on PS3. This is high quality pixel art shown splendidly!
    - I don't see an option to scale screen size, and it most certainly does not fit by default.
    - The red gem is activated by default. I see no IAP anywhere.
    - When I try joining a guild (it defaults to #OUYA), there was a server issue. That's probably on the Ouya's end. Not the most reliable.
    - Not a bad port. Controls with either the joystick or d-pad. I figured they would include the touch pad controls too, but nope.

    EDIT! Okay, so there's apparently a daily play limit, which gives you the option to "Unlock full game" for $4.99. Wasn't really keeping track of time, so I don't know if it's time-based or number-of-games-based. Also, there's no way to change the guild. It's #OUYA for everyone playing on Ouya.

    I can only play NQ once per install!

    Hi, I was wondering if anybody has a solution to this problem that has been driving me batty.

    I can only play NQ once per install on my iPad 2. After I make it to the Graveyard level and die, pressing 'Back' permanently crashes it when I try to reenter. Reinstalling it throws me back into a strange, glitchy version of the Graveyard level, and then it jumps into the character select screen before crashing once again.

    I can't get it to work properly, whether the iPad be jailbroken or not. I've tried restarting the iPad, messing around with NQ's settings, nada. Any help is appreciated, thanks! :)

    As far as I can tell from the devs' Twitter feeds, they're busy working on Pocket Trains and have been porting Nimble Quest to several other platforms. But I feel bad for people who get this game on Steam or OUYA, since they're paying for a game that has been all but abandoned. I really don't understand why they dropped Nimble Quest so quickly—especially when it was creating so much excitement—in favor of what amounts to a reskin of Pocket Planes.

    I think they dropped it because serious gamers saw through the smokescreen of a game this was. There's no purpose to playing... no goals... no quests... it's just a reskin of Magic Cube's amazing game Call of Snakes but without fixed levels or the online multiplayer and with having to play an endless mode to unlock the other characters.

    On the surface, this could have been one of my favorite games ever made... but looking below the surface it became clear there wasn't anything worth the time.

    They probably have a pretty good idea of how much revenue and excitement their games are actually generating.

    I agree, and I have a feeling that revenue was a problem with this one. But I also think that their expansion to other platforms is a pretty good indicator for their perception of the game's popularity. You don't waste time porting a dud to other platforms. I just wish they had made some kind of commitment, or even statement, about future content updates.

    Yeah they lock the guild now it seems. Furthermore I notice that sometimes in the Arena swipes are not registered, which can severely harm your score when you're in a pinch.

    Hey, I've noticed that recently as well! Thought it might be memory issues on my device, but maybe it's more widespread. But I still enjoy the game and pop into the arena pretty much daily. Would love some new content once Pocket Trains is released.
