    Yes it was the latest build. If you read there at the end I forgot to record that time. Haha I was filming for about 5 more tries but I simply couldn't get it to happen again so I gave up. I'll give it one last shot now.

    Also I saw a platform that would pop in over another platform, and it looked like someone karate chopped it in the middle. I'll try to get footage of that as well

    Only trail for now. Perhaps we'll do the main block post-release, we'll see

    That's quite plausible. The bug would have been created when I touched up the ghost walls behavior.

    Not sure I understand what you mean, the game records automatically. You only lose the previous footage when you jump at the start of a game.

    I've seen the broken platform too, only In doom mode. Love the new surprise platforms in doom. Much better not knowing where they'll pop up. I died so many times thinking I could pass under one, only it was flush with the platform below it. Well done...

    Ah! Just saw the bug in code. An angle was set to 190 degrees instead of 180 :eek:

    I'm a little late to the party it seems but I'm thoroughly loving this!

    You know you're playing a good game when you scare the bejeezus out of your cat by screaming "No!" when you die in the middle of a good run! That and I apparently pulled the face of a grinning psychopath when I tripled my best score in one very lucky run!

    I'm by no means good at this game, especially seeing some others astronomical scores, but it says a lot when you just don't care. It's incredibly addictive, it looks undistractingly minimal but still with character and it handles perfectly. It takes a bit of getting used to, granted, but I only ever die because I've misjudged how far I can jump or I've put myself into a near impossible situation.

    I love the rhythmic repetition of certain platform formations, you disappear into "The Zone" and play by pure instinct. The biggest testament of how much I love this game is that I've had eight goes in the course of writing this and it's somehow 6 in the morning. I'm going to be seeing rainbows in my sleep but it's so worth it!

    Sometimes not even the 4 letter word... Just a bunch of random weird word combinations...

    Someone reported this on iphone 5s:

    "i notice as i play the game, the FPS is dropping sometimes in iPhone 5s, still i don't know what i do until the FPS drops below 25 or what."

    Please let me know if you gather more info on this

    I have not experienced any slow down on my 5S but will keep watching.
    Here is a great example of powerups and how they can help. Also my best score to date.

    Looking for a special Power-up to unlock once the player complete all missions.

    Tried flight, but that makes landing too dodgy when timer runs up.

    A Pwr-up spawn boost may unbalance the game.

    A Jump boost might cause more problem than help.

    A No enemy for x time pwr-up, bof...

    Any idea?

    I guess buying only a couple powerups then going for all the trails wasn't the brightest choice haha..

    Hmmmm this is tough
