    I am very looking forward to it! Will it include the white wolf only or will there be more animals/spirits/gods in the future? Could be actually cool to add some divine attack (maybe one of those Shinto or Buddhist gods could help us for a special attack)

    Pretty fun game but nothing new here, just one more meaningless runner :)

    Are there any differences in the swords you can buy or are they cosmetic?

    Not a huge fan of "runners" but digging this for a quick pick up and play.

    Really loving this game, but have 1 small gripe. As score is based entirely on distance, there is no incentive when attempting to compete for scores to actually attack enemies - it's best to just run along the ground and jump the occasional gap. This is frustrating as the attacking element is the most fun aspect of the game but it is best to ignore when competing on the leaderboards.

    A possible solution to this would be a scoring system which rewards players for combos and kills as well as distance.

    Other than that though the games animations and art are fantastic and even the revive system feels fair and non-intrusive. Also wondering how to get the flair thing.

    Totally whole heartedly agree with this solution. Spot on! I still haven't gotten a damn flair thing lol. I did make it almost to the end of the second area though.

    Enjoying the game, but I feel like I'll never be able to buy anything in the shop. I already made it to the last stage shown the trailer (red background on the roof with demon samurai), but I didn't reach the boss. :(

    All my runs only got me about 15,000, which isn't much.

    I found a small bug that I'd love you guys to fix. I twice in a row got more than 4 hearts (life) but when I took the heart, nothing happened and I still had 4 instead of 5, which was so annoying as those hearts are already too rare and hard to get.

    WTH.....? This thread just magically popped up. I've been waiting since last week to see anything on this...glitch?

    Anyway, been playing for a week and am in love with this game. An all-around fantastic endless runner with nice timing-based slashing. And the art style is spot-on to boot. I cannot recommend this enough. I went ahead and got the coin doubler to support the dev after like two runs #

    Thanks guys!

    @jbsib That's definitely a good idea that we will look into. We have noticed that several top scores don't have a high combo, so switching it to a total score would be great.

    @djstout Hearts actually cap at 4 at the moment :)

    We've been hard at work this week on an update. We've solved some issues that caused crashes which will be included as soon as we can get it in the store.

    I think you should rise the cap to 5 or 6, maybe add a special item to let us start with an extra heart

    Finally reached level 4 which I like very much, not too sure what comes next but if you're going to add a few level (or a boss mode) would be so great to see a level in a temple (or shrine) with all those Buddha/gods

    Has anyone figured out how to get a flair? I have played and played and have yet to unlock one. Also has anyone had issues with the cat idols? I've gotten multiple ones in several plays and at the end I can only choose one chest.

    Any help with the flair thing would be greatly appreciated.

    Yeah we're all really buzzing about the review! Definitely nice to see it rated so highly. We're still waiting for the crash bug fix to be reviewed for the app store. Other than that, we're working hard on a huge content update for SB. We'll share some specifics as we get closer to releasing it!

    For the cat problem, the ones with a yellow outline require 2 cats to open. That's not very clear, but that will be changed in the big update coming.

    Aw, don't want to spoil exactly how to get the flairs, but poke around the market at night (real time) when it's dark.
