More updates coming! -Streamlined game experience -Bugs fixing -Best score display during gameplay -Added delay when un-pausing -New app icon -Turned up background music volume -Added rate button -Auto login Game Center at start
update is out already. my congratulations to the dev, you've made an amazing runner. actually, one of the best i've played.
Thank you for the update! Could you please make it so I can restart the game quicker and get rid of the beginning swipe to attack start screen before you start moving?
nice job on the mission streamline! i was stuck on "survive the fog 3 times in one run" for ages. also the music turn up! is the faster restart and the tap controls coming next? EDIT please take out the GC achievment screen opening when the game starts. if we want to we can tap to go see them, GC shouldnt be forced
Can anyone tell me what constitutes a "perfect strike" for each enemy? I know that for the jumping ninja it's a swipe up and then right, but what about the rest? Stuck on needing 30 perfect strikes in one run.
Currently the Play again button will take you right back to the game screen right away. The only thing I could speed it out is make the scrolling faster maybe? I will see what I can do. Yeah, will try to remove the beginning slash and see if it flows well into the game. Thanks for the suggestion.
The tap controls have to be tested first. If it goes well, it will be coming in the next update! I'm sorry about the achievement screen, it shouldn't be opening up at the start, it should only log you in. I'll fix this in the next update. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Agree on removing GC opening screen. Unnecessary and just another tap to get into the game. Yeah, we're lazy. Otherwise, great update for a great runner. Loving it.
Sorry, let me help clear it up a little. To get a perfect strike, you have to slash at the right timing and with the correct direction of swipe. The timing to get a perfect slash is to slash almost right before the enemy hits you, it's a really unforgivingly small timing window! Direction for the swipe ------------------------ Swordman - Horizontal Ninja - Up Spearman - Down It wasn't very clear in the game, I'm still working on making it more obvious for players to know where and when to slash to get critical/perfect slash. An idea is probably to have a directional indicator above the enemy.
Thanks for this and love your game. So for the ninja...You just have to swipe up and not up then right? Is the "perfect slash" noted with the black + or the white flash +?
For the ninja you could jump and slash horizontally and it would register as perfect slash, because it's a bit more difficult to do this combo move. The perfect slash is the white flash+. Black flash+ is only critical slash.
Perfect slashes timing: for the samurai when they raise their swords right before you touch them, swipe right for the ninja until you are almost under them, swipe up for the spearmen, jump over the spear and almost at their head, swipe down @opneon, i just unlocked the assassin. He looks and moves so cool, but with his shorter blade it's harder for me to perfect slash without losing a life, even when the description sais it's easier with him.
no worries but is anyone else having problems with the assassin? i dont find him easier at all, the oposite. This lvl 21 challenge 50 perfect slashes with Kuro is just way too frustrating. cant get past it.
Oh I see, is the number too high? Kuro ink mode would make critical slash into perfect slash, I thought it would make it easier to achieve that number, I was probably wrong
