The last ones added are an improvement, but it was still too frustrating and I deleted it. The devs made a confusing statement last week saying they were stopping development, but then also said they still were planning to update this. Certainly still has the potential to be a great game. AnarKitty Well-Known Member Oct 10, 2010 3,654 0 0 Minneapolis, USA #3 AnarKitty, Dec 8, 2013 Waited for this to come out forever, and couldn't wait to get my hands on it. I hope they really do improve the controls, if nothing else, but it's worth throwing a dollar at regardless if you like the genre. I have no buyer regret at all, personally. orangecan Well-Known Member Aug 9, 2011 2,000 150 63 #4 orangecan, Dec 8, 2013 This had so much potential but as the other posters say the controls just still let it down too much to be a fun play for me.
