    Hey Yann-
    Still enjoying playing WaWa, but I have two suggestions. First, the backflip is very difficult to pull off. I often end up doing something I don't mean to instead of the backflip. Also, no matter which direction I face, the backflip tends to go right. Making it go left is very difficult.
    Secondly, it would be helpful if the timer was visible. I have no way of knowing how long I have to complete tasks before the level ends. Thank you, and keep up the great work!
    Best, Lobster

    Okay Yann, I see the timer is the green circle. I didn't understand that. But still having trouble pulling off backflips. I pretty much have the controls dialed in now.....

    Ok so for the backflip you have to hold down the bottom arrow of the dpad to crouch/duck. Then the direction of your backflip will be the opposite of Wawa's facing (if he is looking at the right he will backflip to the left etc.).
    To change the facing while Wawa is ducked, just slide your finger to the right or the left (do not release it, you can do it but Wawa will be standing up at a moment).

    Tell me if I am not understandable XD Big weekend of work :)

    A bit. I am playing around with button/dpad size and placement so that may help.I am enjoying the music also, as I am a fusion/ metal guitarist for 25 years.... Very nice. It is obvious you care about the quality of your work, and your fans.... Thank you! It gives me a better appreciation for your game. Get some rest, you work too hard!

    lol It's ok I've slept a bit :)
    Thanks for the music, it's really a pleasure to have your point of view about it! Because people doesn't care so much about music in games especially on iPhone... And I think it's sad :(
    As you noticed I worked very hard on the music which has finally some really cool melodics :p

    For the controls if you've got ideas on how to make them better, do not hesitate to tell me, and I will see if I can do it ;)

    Take care.

    Speaking of music, Yann is it true that some was taken from Feed Me Oil?
    I noticed it right away on ver. 1.0 but That subject was never brought up.

    What ?! o_O
    That's impossible I composed and recorded all the musics by myself! There is no use of anyone else music in the game, that would be a shame. :s

    Oh yes there is definitely something familiar between this two songs! I never heard it before, it's good :)

    I must also assume that the music of the world 1-1 & 1-3 is not the best of the game. My preferred musics of Wawa are the cart music and the music of the sky worlds (1-6 for example) :p

    So it wasn't just me, maybe you played it and it got stuck in your head or something :)
    I actually loved it! The music in FMO has to be one of my favorite or at least in the TOP 5 after Superbrothers of course ;)

    Thanks for your comment.

    Talking about sound,
    I have just finished to record an audio spot for an iOS podcast, but I think that my english pronunciation is not so good. Can you please give me your points of views?

    Thanks ;)

    Okay Yann,
    Here is my biggest disappointment with WaWa: only two worlds right now! This is my favorite game right now, and for 99cents I have definitely gotten more than enough value, but I can't wait to play more! I would be happy to pay more.....

    lol you'll not have to spend more money XD
    The third chapter will be released in late july/early august. I know that it is a long time to wait but, as you know, I make all of this alone ;) And I can't work more than now (about 13-15 hours every day)! It's not an excuse, just to explain why it is so long.

    By the way, thank you very much for your support, it's really amazing to see people loving Wawa, who is like my baby since 18 months :)
