    Um, this game is showing up as being $2.59 on the NZ App Store (for me) while it's advertised as $1.29 / 99c; is there any reason for this?

    Thanks :D

    As I mentioned befoer, a key feature is to be able to listen to music while playing. I am sure I am speaking on behalf of everyone when I am saying we should have this ability in the next update. (plus i wanna listen to cinderella man by eminem while playin. Imagining my vlambeer char is singing while killing enimies and stuff...yeah. If you never heard of this song go onyoutube and check it outits great)

    I agree with you on the music feature. Nowadays it is expected in a iPhone game. As for Cinderella Man, I would rather listen to Kill You, Till I Collapse, Lose Yourself, Buffalo Bill, Till Hell Freezes Over, etc.

    I STILL LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH!!!

    Anyways, an awesome character to be able to play as would be the League Of Evil agent. That'd be awesome!

    Edit: Oh now it's showing up as being $1.99 :( I only have $1 worth of credit atm :/ Guess I'll have to wait.
    Interesting though as I tried to buy it within an hour of reading the TA review where it was (and still is) listed as $0.99 :/

    Edit 2: Now the TA link has changed to $1.99. :/ Guess I'll be waiting for a sale.

    You can listen to your own music while playing. Play your music, then run the game (it should pause your music). Then just open your multitask switcher while the game is running, go to the music controls and tap play. Your music will still be playing when you return to the game.

    why does the disc gun get so much hate? it's fun to use, and while i kill myself with it more often than not, it usually makes me chuckle. i have a bad habit of picking up a box and immediately firing, and i really only notice it when i quickly get a game over from getting a box. when i don't kill myself right away, i like seeing how many baddies i can get with one shot, or doing some fun acrobatics while trying to take out multiple big guys.

    getting better at using any gun (and yeah, i do hate the dual pistols, and don't really care for the flamethrower) is part of what makes the game fun, and it adds to the requirements of getting a high score. it's all about risk and reward, and you can reduce the risk (of getting the next crate and a potentially crapy gun) by learning and playing better.

    my high scores aren't much, but i'm happy so far: normal - 51; smft - 23; ambush - 5.

    Because when it bounces off the wall, there's quite a large space that it doesn't affect.

    This. Personally I kinda like the disc gun (exception being when I accidentally shoot it), but it's really weak when the enemy is up against the wall. The hit radius with the disc gun just isn't there....

    I like the disc gun. If there's any weapon I find useless it's the dual pistols.. :/

    Yeah, those I find the worst. I just wish that it took only 6 kills instead of 8 to kill the big enemies with 'em, since after all it takes 2 to kill a small with those, and the ratio with the revolver is 1/2, while with the dual pistols its' 2/8. Hope we can drop it to at least 2/6 to make it a little more reasonable and less useless...

    I think that weapons are balanced, every has pros and cons. Dual Gun is useful too, it is weak, I admit, but it is quite effective against small monsters, it can be helpful in situations where they come from both sides.

    Disc Gun is also nice, but need some experience and care.

    Flamethrower is very nice on PC, probably the best weapon, but on iOS ( because of lack of "jump&fire" possibility ) it's a way weaker.

    Minigun is not as nice as it looks like, it is quite weak against big mobs, and need a space for effective use.

    Mines, it is fun to place them, but in overall you could be in danger when you have them for too long. Especially when the next crate is on top platform - it is quite tricky to get it with mines as your weapon. This and Katana are those I want to replace ASAP.

    Grenade Launcher is also not-so-nice, you could miss your target and then... could be hard ;)

    Small thoughts ;)

    Ehh, got a new highscore of 107 in Normal mode! I'm very proud of myself :p Ended by being sliced by the disc gun.

    if the mine limit is reached, can the mines start to disappear after trying to put another one down? because I was just playing, and I had mines payed down on the bottom of the stage, and once I got up, hitting fire gave me the click of a mine deploying, but no mines appeared.

    BTW, who plays the game in portrait mode? Without icade, that is.

    I unlocked the ninja yesterday but it is not available on the character select page ?!?!
    Today I unlocked the robot and that one appeared.

    I have the ninja achievement but it is not selectable. I cant unlock a second either... Any suggestion to play the ninja? I was looking forward to seeing that one!

    But... it's a ninja! You shouldn't be able to see it :)

    <sorry, couldn't resist ;) I believe Vlambeer mentioned something a few pages back about looking into it>

    Yeah apparently it's a bug. You can still play the ninja when character select is on random, however we can't exclusively select to play only as the ninja yet. Next update should fix this I'd say
