    Funny thing, just now having gotten Impossible Road, I'm not that excited by it. Guess maybe after games like Boson X and Octagon, it's just not holding my interest. It definately IS hard. But almost to the point of not wanting me to put effort into it. At least in Boson X and Octagon, I feel like I can make progress by going at it just one more time. Here I might manage to hit six gates and it's not giving me the same satisfaction. The road comes so fast it's next to impossible (guess that is the name of the game) to stay on it for more than a few seconds and IF you're lucky you might land on it again.

    I don't know. I'll play it some more for sure.

    I never got Impossible Road because, although is is insanely beautiful, I didn't see myself staying with it very long. Still haven't gotten Expander either. I am replaying Bobbing (no thanks to this thread) and doubling up on the blood pressure meds! >.>

    @Cygnet - So many games! And I thought that list was almost done.

    Anyone want to sift through that and single out the twitchy/crazy hard ones?

    Also added Endless Road to the list in the meantime
     
  8. VVVVVV's coming to iOS?

    Please tell me this is true...

    So Iron Frost is fun but the ads are so annoying. Deleted.
    SquareScape reminds me of Quell
    I didn't enjoy LILAM that much
    Biolab Disaster is awesome, shame it wasn't expanded
    ---
    On my wishlist, One Tap Hero, Bean's Quest, Manuganu, and Kung Fu Rabbit.
    Not sure I get Deflex and Crumble Zone from the trailers

    Edit: huh, I already had Bean's Quest. And it's from the Duet devs. And it's awesome.
    Think I'm going to get One Tap Hero next

    Awesome Super Boy HD is a highly addicting, highly challenging platform game.

    You control a small character called 'Awesome' across multiple levels. Players must guide Awesome to the end of each level avoiding buzz saws, spikes and crumbling blocks.

    If 'Awesome' is killed he restarts the level immediately with unlimited lives.

    Awesome will run all by himself so all you need do is tap anywhere on the screen to charge up a jump and then release at the precise moment.

    Will you be able to beat them all?

    Meant to mention, not to step on anyone's toes, but Manuganu is a fantastic, very well polished platformer that I enjoyed immensely. But I'm not sure if it fits in that "hard as nails" box. Might take you a few attempts to complete everything (in fact, I think there are some levels that you must do twice to take the correct path to gather the items you need). That said, it may not be easy, but I'm not the greatest gamer and I didn't think it was hard at all in comparison to the other titles we have listed.

    Well I haven't updated the list yet, because not every game in Hoggy's post fits the twitchy, reflex criteria. For example, Nihilumbra isn't that kind of game.

    Hurts Donut is an insultingly difficult game. Really all you need to do is tap the screen and make the donut not run into things. Unfortunately you probably can't do it. It will most likely make you feel like a useless, no talent loser. Still, that won't keep you from trying again and again. Hurts Donut is a platformer/obstacle game with two episodes of 25 levels each. Good luck.

    Kung Fu Rabbit is indeed a classic. The hardcore levels are insane!

    They Need To Be Fed 1 & 2 were not mentioned, I think.

    Kid Vector is another tough platformer I enjoyed. Looks great, too.

    Favorites from CygnetSeven's list: Bloo Kid (one of the best platformers on iOS imho, great soundtrack too. Can't wait for the sequel), Sunshine, Relic Rush, PolyRoll (fantastic Sonic homage. Clash Force from the same developer is another easy recommendation).
