    You again? MinuteQuest has been added to the original post; but without picture due to Touch Arcade accursed 30 picture per post maximum. Thanks.

    It's a rare week when more than 30 games worth listing in the original post come out.

    I heard the developer of Plax is a real nut.
     
  7. Okay, I nominate Plax then.

    Me too! Plax is challenging, to say the least. Keep getting my arse handed to me, but keep coming back for more.
     
  9. Yes, my friend, jcho is kicking our booties. But tonight I will play for one hour and hopefully dethrone him!
     
  10. This iPad only is friggin bs. Not in this forum or voting. I'm talking with games
     
  11. Actually Botanicula is one of the best games on ipad. But I know an ipad only game won't win here, so I will vote for Plax.

    Actually, bezircle, lethal lance, super frog hd, and many others are good too.
     
  12. I'm talking about iPad only games. I don't get it? You just cut your business in half if not more
     
  13. Yeah true, but some of us ipaders like it cause face it, ipad gaming has more real estate and can have better games potentially.

    Indeed. I was considering trying to get my wife to play one side to try and beat you guys:). She doesn't like gaming though.

    I am persistent and will keep trying. Gonna try it on the iPhone. I think it may be easier to use peripheral vision, and less thumb movement...as you mentioned previously

    This is another week I took to look at my back catalog and finish them all.

    Bit.Trip is gone, and so are many more games, only 13 games remains now.

    Only BADLAND, Duet, Futuridium EP, Leo´s Fortune, Out There, Worm Run, Slayin´, Threes!, Impossible Road, Tilt to Live 2: Brimstone Pinball, Glorkian Warrior, 1001 Attempts, Wayward Souls and Darkin remains now, with Adventure Beaks up next to completion and all my iOS back catalog will be dealt with...

    Edit: Darklings feels reaaaaally paidmium, and the star rate is veeeery low. Shame. Replaced by Glorkian Warrior: Trials of Glork -in its AppStore form-, and starting from scratch for the... 6th time? Its a lot of fun anyways :D

    And 1001 Attempts never left was always on a subfolder of a subfolfer, so hidden I didnt find it until now...

    What do you mean back catalog? Do you mean back logged? So you only focus on several games at a time? That does seem like a good idea. I usually just wait for a long road trip or a vacation and just play the crap out of a couple of games. That's what I did with bastion ,super hexagon, and bosen x

    I mean all my iTunes library, every game I bought and I found good enough to finish it. I focus on a couple games at a time, and go between them. A little bit of that, this and I keep progressing. Its a healthy way to progress. Your method also works nice on that occasions :D
