Out January. Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel http://toucharcade.com/2011/11/30/ea-interactive-winter-preview-event-titles-from-chillingo/ Hopefully the devs touch up on the controls before release (please no tilt nonsense).
OMG YES!!! I love the game!! Been playing it on miniclip.com and damn, one of my all time favourite platformers! SO EXCITED Thanks EA!
We've been giving a ton of attention the controls (no tilt, don't worry ). Looks like they were using an older build, so I can confirm that the controls have been vastly improved since then
Are you using virtual controls? Please use a dpad for movement, so many devs try that analog stick nonsense and it always fails.
Holy. Crap... I think I'm gonna cry. I LOVED THIS FLASH GAME!!!! I remember days spent on the old PC playing Fancy Pants Adventures! You got an insta-buy from me!!! (as long as the controls are tight)
Just a d-pad, should feel much better than a virtual analog stick. I'm really happy with how the controls feel right now, and I've played quite a few platformers in iOS. Thank you so much! I've personally spent a ton of time testing the latency on the controls, I think you'll be pleased
So there's a dpad for movement. I take it there's 3 buttons on the other side of the screen (jump/ slide/ attack)?
Yep, left and right on one side, attack, jump and slide on the other. Making sure movement is as precise as possible.
Looks AMAZING I wonder if controls work like swipe up to jump and swipe down to slide? Biggest instabuy of whatever month it's coming in xD
Yup! Next week / early March. Sorry for the false start earlier, this time for real! Over the Top's pressed a few backgrounds together for performance, so I believe it'll run on all devices. I'd have to ask them, though.
I believe OtT's experimented with that, but swipes aren't as responsive as presses. There's two big buttons on the right, one for jump, one for slide, so doing both should be very easy and reliable. And thank you very much! I think you'll be pleased with the price
