This is a fantastic game, I just wish that an alternate control scheme could have been implemented for the iPad that would put the buttons a little closer to the bottom left corner. It is certainly playable as is but my hand gets pretty sore.
The Tamer is an absolute beast once you figure him out. One of the key things about him is that you need tons of coins to get his important upgrades. Save your coins for the arcing bola, the flying mounts are generally better. You also need to save your coin to upgrade your armor which eventually kills enemies on dismount and even fires immediately on dismount. That is extremely helpful, especially when combined with tactical dismounts. Another thing to learn is that the mounts have different invincibility frames and the quicker you get used to them, the better you will do.
Could not have explained it better In general all new characters are very different and need some training. They also get harder to use from left to right. So ninja can also be seen as the highest difficulty since you need to plan in advance to survive. you need a strong knowledge of the enemies and bosses behaviours to stande a chance, but once you master her, you will get crazy highscores
So what time does the contest end today? When do I get my prize (Across Age 2 non-HD instead of Oceanhorn)? And where are all the competitors? I'd expect a few more because the prizes are free games. I don't see anyone else posting scores, but I do see a few others have beaten the score to beat. (I know I already asked when the contest ends, but I figured I would just ask again since I also wanted to comment on the lack of other people in it.) Go for it! For your convenience, here are the posts about the contest. (Also see the post they just said in response to my question.)
So, since we only have one winner so far I decided to change the rules: everyone to post an archer score above 35,000 points (same rules for proof as before) until tomorrow (28th of january) 09:00 am GMT has the chance to win the Oceanhorn copy or one of 5 copies of Roar Rampage. Good luck to you all! @Intendro: i will send out your price right now via pm.
I just checked and no, it's $0.99. If you didn't check because you couldn't check: If you already own a game, the Touch Arcade app still says the price (instead of the App Store saying "Open" or a download from cloud symbol.) I think you can look up an iTunes page on an Internet browser too, maybe. ...Yes you can.
Finally unlocked the Ninja and absolutely loving her. She's a great change from the Wizard and the Tamer, my other most used characters. As for the Archer, I still absolutely hate him. I have a pathetic score of 53k with him but I'll pass on entering the contest just because I hate him so much.
I found a few glitches. It looks like you slowed down the overly fast walking animation. That's good. But in boss rush mode, the 3 original characters still have a fast walking animation. When the archer gets hit during his dash's cool down, he switches to the running animation but can still fire an arrow during the cool down, which makes it look a bit weird I guess. One playthrough the archer started failing to do his dash pose. The dash effect in front of him was there, but he was either in a walking pose or animation (I don't remember for sure). Some dashes had the dash pose. Some had the pose for part of the dash, if I remember right. The archer's bow and arrow are positioned slightly too far in front of him when running against a wall. See the picture. You can see it's not attached to him. I just found another thing that detaches it temporarily... Spoiler the dragon's roar that blows you back. The bow (with attached arrow) aren't blown as far. It's even detached with the dash move during the roar. Another archer glitch! See my next post, after the next poster, for it and a picture of another similar glitch (apparently can only add one picture per post.)
Let's see if the Touch Arcade app uploads the picture. It worked this time. Okay, now the post. Continuing from my previous post: Another archer glitch! Boss rush. Shot the imp, looking like I didn't really hit him. It killed him, it said I got the no damage bonus, but no "Imp slain!" thing or character portrait to go with it. The imp seems to be stuck in his "ouch" pose and nothing is happening. ...Hm. *shoots imp again* *he actually dies this time* Huh. And here's a picture of another glitch where an arrow somehow hit. I killed the harpy with that arrow, but it's nowhere close to hitting. It actually died with that hit.
