    Pretty much this. I installed it then gave it 5 minutes with the tutorial. The art and animation is nice imo but that's about it. The game play is alright but doesn't feel that fluid coming from a person who plays lots of side scrollers. Felt clunky almost.

    Hmm, ya, what is he doing on that icon. Gritting his teeth perhaps.

    Of course, only MY subjective opinion, and as long my energy doesn't run out, lol.


    @Lawliet
    Yep, clunky fits.
    That slasher game from that rockband (sorry, don't recall the name atm) felt similar clunky and devided the people's opinion strongly. I loved it...same here...lol, yet!

    Yeah, stage 3-5 could be considered as a possible grind- or a pay-wall...

    Though...i spent everything on premium equipment, enhanced and upgraded what was possible, but the key to success is to be patient and watch the clear movement/attack pattern of the enemies. Clunky stupid sometimes.
    You can't cancel an attack, so you'll have this very vulnerable little moment of no control/movement = disastrous for your character = don't smash the buttons, time them wisely.

    Did not buy a third character slot, so i can only take one of the other allies into battle (switching possible when combo meter is full). They have completely different abilities/weapons and for my liking, there is some real, real cool stuff here. My fun reason to game on.

    Edit: Reached stage 5-3

    Funny coz for as many things I find wrong with it, I'm still playing it. It's like a stubborn twisted obsession. I've been using the first slasher dude and the gun guy. My gun guy is becoming a beast. And about the controls, I agree they are manageable easily. It's def best suited to not button mash. Figured that one out very early on. There's a certain flow to the controls and attacks. It's just a shame b/c for all the things it freemos wrong, it does things rlly well and has def grown on me. I have a love/hate thing established here.

    Lol, stubborn twisted obsession...me too, still.
    Stage 6-5 is the next grind/pay-wall, though i did it on my second try.
    Patience did it, paired with VERY short combos most of the time, waiting for the right moment to strike big, and repeat.

    And no, not a dime spent.

    I'm on 7-4 now and it seems to have a cap on new characters, but with any new skill upgrade my moves get better, wilder and funnier.

    You named it, love-hate.

    Edit: i def love that hammer rock track after a clear stage.

    Edit: looks like the game (normal mode) would be finished after 8-5. I can "easily" beat the boss Meleck, well, at first, but after he's respawn, he is even bigger and stronger...Game Over.

    I flipped the graphic quality switch to "high" on my 6s plus and now the game doesn't boot up. Rebooting phone doesn't work. I only signed in as guest so that mean no cloud saving for me if I delete the game. Hopefully, it's only a bug the devs are willing to fix. Also, every stage there are equipments you can win. Finishing higher ranks get better prizes. Almost all the earlier stage I got s-rank but the ball-in-a-cup gamble at the end meant almost always I get the least desirable item on first try. As many different currencies there are in the game, I am glad there is no stamina bar that limits your play time, which I enjoy.

    May be a bug. This game is fun but seemingly poor programming. I'm on 6s+ 9.0.2 and jb'n. Facebook connect doesn't function. GameCenter hasn't worked properly since like early iOS 8 so you are forced to log as guest. And these are not jb related b/c I have tested on non jb'n 6s. I was up to stage 4 and went to sign in and poof stuck on load screen. Also made an iap to support the game and the dev and that's gone too. Got refund from Apple. End of story, fun game if it decides to let u play. Very thrown together feeling of junkiness to it though. Great half baked and tarnished by inherent failures game at best. A shame and someone shld be shameful.

    For what it's worth, I'm on a 6s (iOS 9.2) as well and was able to switch to high quality graphics and connect to Game Center without a problem.

    That's cool. I haven't had any issue switching to hq graphics but GC has been an ongoing issue with tons of ppl on TA and Apple's own forums. A problem to which they have remained silent and unconcerned with.

    Delete traincrashers. Add this repo to your cydia sources. Repo.insanelyi.com/
    Then install xcon version 41. Reinstall traincrashers and you are good to go. Nothing to set up, straight to playing.
