    I'm shocked!
    I just woke up its 324am my time bought it right away and I think I might be dreaming haha
    Guess not, I know what game will consume my time today!
    Love the chip tune soundtrack and graphics! It's like a NES version of GTA and to me that's beyond awesome.
    This is an easy game to reccomend especially to GTA fans!

    For those who haven't played it go to settings menu and you can change the graphics to looks many diff ways including just like an old gameboy style graphics, older PC graphics even next gen console... There are tons of these to choose from and each change up the experience so change them up time and time!

    What Metalcasket said. This is excellent.

    I was kind of disappointed with this week's releases, then this popped up. I have never even heard of it, but based on the comments decided to take my chances, and I am NOT disappointed with this one.

    I like it when we get surprise releases. It's much more fun than waiting for weeks for something to come out.

    Was worried I'd have nothing to buy this week, what a nice surprise. Had never heard of this. Plays like a simple version of GTA. Only a couple of min in but seems like there can be hours of fun with this one.

    I literally just had a conversation about 3 weeks ago with the developer about bringing this to mobile and they told me there focuses are staying with consoles and pc.

    Apparently, the iOS version only has retro and 8bit graphics to choose from.

    You do get to change the TV color mode to make the colors fit various gaming systems though.

    How are the controls? I could never get behind GTA style games on phones because of the controls. Is this the same or do you click to move? I always had interest in this game but never picked it up on consoles.

    For those who think this is like gta I don't think so. Besides stealing cars nothing like it.
    So many 90s tie ins it's blowing my mind.
    Spoiler alert
    Back to the future, bill and teds excellent adventure, ect. This game has so much going for it.
    I thought it was going to be an 8bit knock off of gta but boy was i wrong.
    Good story and missions.
    Laughing while playing some too.

    It allows u to use arrows or a joystick type movement in which i chose.
    Controls are not a problem what so ever

    What are the controls like for this? I am not the biggest GTA guy but I like the old ones (never had the chance to get into five really) and this is cheaper than Chinatown plus sounds much different other than premise. I like the customization and progression aspects, but does it control essentially like a dual stick shooter or what? I like DTS but am down for others also. Just wondering since I still have some cash and a game I may have to delete since keeps crashing (H&C2)

    EDIT: it looks like a DST without the sticks lol if that makes sense, does that sound accurate? I see the buttons just wondering if it's kind of like a phantom movable analog stick on the left...?
