    Just as a heads up: The update for Super Crate Box iOS that fixes issues with the game crashing after the load screen is available right now. Thanks for your patience! :)

    Loving the game but have to say the A/B buttons on iPhone need some tweaking. I'm constantly missing the fire button which is getting me killed, frustrating as hell.

    Nice!

    Just unlocked Ambush mode and I love it! High score of 9, so stinking tough.

    High score in Normal is 53, definitely improvable for me.

    Wow I thought my 43 was good! It's interesting to see the the difficulty never escalates. That means after a lot of practice, your scores will rise dramatically.

    I have now played 133 times and my highscore is 7. This is the mostest awesomest game that was ever invented!!!!!!!!!! Muffin Knight was cool but it lagged on my 2nd gen, and this does not at all! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO awesome! this is great buy! the best buy of the year! my favorite game of the year! (and yes i know that it is the 5th day of the year).

    Now my highscore is 9! (still low compared to other people) :(

    In its current state, I just can't see all of the hype. It's fun for what it is, but IMO what it is is a pretty shallow experience. The controls are ok, not great. I think a game like this needs great controls. It doesn't have the progressive nature that brings me back to another shallow game, Jetpack Joyride. The price is right, and it's fun in small doses, so I don't regret the purchase, but it's certainly not a game changer or GOTY material. I don't even think it's GOTM material.

    The iControlpad (in iCade mode) still doesn't work even with the new update! :(

    The controls are working well for me on the iPod BUT I hate how I can't see what is going on at the bottom level most of the time as my two hands are blocking most of the action.

    Any possibility of scrunching the screen just a bit so the controls can actually be underneath (if only partially) the game screen?

    My high score is 207...on the PC version :(

    Hope the jump-shooting issue is fixed by the time I get my iPod back!

    I really wanted to Like this game, and it's a solid effort well worth the dollar, and hopefully it will mature with updates and content down the line...But I know Muffin Knight is the "clone" to SCB , but in my opinion it is superior in every way, controls, depth, content, graphics, multiplayer...I am not sure what I am missing here or what the excessive hype is about, but it's a fun game, worth the buck but really not much under the hood...

    Ok, I have a quirky bug. It happens on my iPod 2g, but not on my iPad - so I don't know if it is because of the old (slower) hardware, or because of the iPhone version.

    Scenario:

    - First map
    - Get flamethrower
    - Go to center platform
    - Hold fire as long as you can

    Shortly after you start killing some monsters (i.e. stuff starts happening on screen), when three small monsters fall from the opening, sometimes _one_ of them will drop directly to the center platform, skipping the top one.

    Edit: I was just testing it out again, and it happened to me once immediately as the level started, and another time when I wasn't in the center platform.

    I will assume that it is related to frame-skipping/system chugging and collision detection.

    Could you look into this?

    Cheers,

    Paulo
