Actually, jumping from running works just fine with the gesture controls. While running, simply swipe up. You don't have to take your thumb off the screen and then initiate a swipe. Just swipe right from running and he'll jump. Spend a little more time with the gesture controls. You might be surprised how well they work once you get used to them.
TRUE DAT. Ninjas always work alone. Even the ninjas in League of Legends get a -1 hp penalty if there is another ninja in their team.
I wasn't saying it was a bad game, it just isn't what I initially thought it was given the previous teaser. I was just expecting something a little bit... More? Different? I don't know... I'm not harping on the game, I was just excited about it for a couple of weeks prior to release and then it was just kind of snuffed after. I didn't think I would be perceived as a "hater" just because the trailer lead me to believe that this would be something different than it is... I am sure many here have had the experience at least once in the gaming experience...
Hm, I just read your question and thought I would try. I went through level 2-1 (the hardest one I've played so far) and just 3 shurikened it without killing anyone. So it's possible, but I don't think the game gives you anything special for doing it. It did definitely add to the challenge of it, though. Especially against the guys with the laser scopes. You can't ever stop while in their sites or they get you.
With an endless mode with waves like the last stage on the first sector (so the players have a reason to come back after ending the normal stages) this game has the potential to be the best platformer on ios!
I picked this up today and am really enjoying it, I'm using button controls and they work excellently. I'm not that far into yet but I'm really pleased with what I have played and can't wait to work my way through.
Would love this. The combat is so fun so an endless wave mode would be great Also would like a speed run setting where you just need to get through levels as fast as possible without anything to collect.
Just like to add, works on iOS7 Mfi Game controllers also, plays beautifully. . But the Buttons are labeled wrong, also doesn't tell you R1 shoulder button , is the Dash Attack. For some reason the pause button Is a extra jump button (not pause), the onscreen touch overlays are not needed also, so can automatically hide them if using controller? Or an option to turn them off would be good..just needs tidy up a bit In the Next update.
