Really enjoying this. Since I didn't see them specifically described anywhere, the controls are quite elegant with the red circle in the bottom left serving as crouch and roll (basically crouching when falling) and the rest of the screen for jump (with context sensitive wall jump) and jetpack boost (hold down). I haven't progressed very far, so maybe there are a few additional functions. The static ads between levels are quite unobtrusive. And there's an option for a video ad (or nuts) to continue, which is quite fair. I assume that the latter remains even with the no-ad IAP? Also, I didn't see this listed in the game of the week poll. Doesn't it qualify?
Wow, nicely done. I'll be able to play this a bit more tomorrow, but already the tutorial levels are looking great.
Keep going. There's more controls a bit further in, with no added buttons. It's seamless. You will understand when you get there. Also this game would be in the next game of the week poll. You have to nominate it though. I'm definitely nominating it. Billy
Billy, I will happily add you bro. Although I just logged out of Game Center so I can play a few games that don't run on iOS 9.1 beta with it logged in. I'll add you when I log back in. Ryan

Is anyone else having trouble with the continue videos? I've tried three times and either the game hangs and the video doesn't play or the game crashes to the desktop. I've restarted the game and the device. iPhone 5s running 8.4.1 Billy
It's ok. No matter what you do there will always be some small bug that sneaks past the review and beta process. I was only asking to see if it was something wonky on my end. I love your game! Do you guys have any plans for the game down the road? I'd love to see an endless mode. Maybe with some bad guys to shoot. Hehe. Billy
Oh how evil. Yea I just figured out in one part you DO need an inferior suit. You guys are evil lol I left a nice review on the AppStore. Billy
Cheers, Billy & Thanks a lot for all your nice feedback and support! That particular jump is indeed mean as hell... I failed dozens of times before I finally got the idea that it might work with a less powerful suit.
I finally managed to finish the last level yesterday... 80/120 stars in the first run, but I'm sure I can still do better in various levels, so I'm not gonna put the game aside anytime soon. Where are you currently at?
Bumpin' this up with a nice little surprise I just found out about... play level 5 of stage IV with the basic suit to turn the astronaut into a super hero!
This kick-ass Iron Man suit (linked below)! I discovered it by chance while making screen shots. If you enter level 5 of stage IV with the basic suit, you can play the level as Iron Man! https://www.facebook.com/fishlabs/photos/a.155140161188911.24112.104846322884962/920196448016608/?type=3&theater
