Hoorah! I finally got a time of 11:25 However, I think that I also did that run without dying for the first time as well, but I only unlocked the speed achievement on the title screen. Afterwards, I did another run-through, this time I'm positive that I didn't blow up, and it didn't unlock. Did it break when I did both in one run?
Its like playing my gameboy color all over again. Great game, this and Flips Quest are terrific, can't wait for the next in the series...
You cant, the game is designed so you have to play it contianually, no level select screen or anything This IS hands down one of the best games ever for iOS, two years after release...
Saw the thread revival and picked this up. Glad I did. The controls took me more than a little getting used to (mostly jump timing due to the fact that you jump when you release the screen, not when you touch it) but I'm mow determinedly working through my second playthrough. I've already blown my chance to get all the cogs, and died many times, but I'm still working through so I'm ready for attempt number three! Thanks for inadvertently setting me onto this one, Connector.
It only took me 3 and a half years or so but I've finally completed the game with all gears. Speed run is down to 14:47. The Last Rocket remains one of my all time top 10 games on iOS.
Speed run completed, I beat the game in 00:11.45. I should have had the 'beat the game without blowing up challenge' too but for a couple of silly mistakes. That's my next aim.
Ha! Congrats!! I need to reinstall this, I don't think I ever fully completed the game the first time around... =o/
Wow.. Like... Wow. /speechless I think i'll reinstall this one too, since im in the "backlog clearing" gaming mode this year.
Thanks guys. The Last Rocket - Speed Run Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel I'm sorry about the little blip of a few seconds in the final level.
Never even heard of this game, now I need to play it, love these kind of games, watching your video reminds me a little bit of stealth inc and VVVVVVVVV
Nice work Andy. I love this game. Still one of the best games on the platform IMO, and I'm pretty sure you were the one who put me onto it. The <25% achievement took me days. Don't think I'll ever manage it without dying though.
Cheers Bez. I haven't attempted the <25% achievement yet but I can see that it will be a tricksy one. I thought that beating the game without dying would be too difficult aswell, but having played quite a bit over the past few days doing speed runs I now know it's possible.
