VVVVVV would be an excellent addition --- Saw this in the Upcoming forum: http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=210152 Looks like our kind of game
Sifted through my app history and came up with this. Some Platformers Kung Fu Rabbit - a classic Hungry Master -so fun Electro Master - same Don't Die Robot Wants Kitty - awesome sauce Karoshi Pixel City Skater Platform Hell Pro Kami Retro Unpleasant Horse Katana Jack J-Werewolf - one of the best metroidvania style games Brain in Jar - quirky runner, gets overlooked Cheese Man - wild fun Bloo Kid Sheep Goes Left Bean's Quest Kale in Dinoland - one of my faves Unstoppable Jake One Single Life Android Biolab Disaster - an amazing demo Bit 1 Gravity World Tiny ARPG - like Spell Sword Rocket Riot Squarescape One Tap Hero - got hooked on this for about a month, love it Raptured! Polyroll Super Tiny Leap Trauma Ted FiveADay LILAM Crumble Zone - insanely good Iron Frost Sunshine - great game Captain Nova Relic Rush Cyto's Puzzle Adventure Towelfight 2 - great great great Gravity Duck - VVVVVV like Ninja Striker! Super Bunny Land Manuganu - overlooked and awesome Nihilumbra - amazing Jack N Jill Tiny Death Rico Other Mentionables RPG Snake - I just love this take on snake, fun stuff Fish Moto AeroDrift - great little platform racer Deflex - a Minter classic, tormented the hell out of me, one of his toughest Box Cat - should be on list! Explodables - good and twitchy Slide Road Junk Punk Magnetic Shaving Derby Dumb Ways To Die I realize not all these game will fit into a twitch based genre but thought you might like gleaning through some fun ideas.
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
Yep. Its been coming soon for all of 2013. I'd like to think we're nearing the splendid torture its sure to bring us.
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

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.

For example, Nihilumbra isn't that kind of game. Lazer Kat Well-Known Member Sep 29, 2013 2,596 0 0 #437 Lazer Kat, Nov 22, 2013 That list I just posted. Check those guys out.

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.

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). (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
