A few minutes into this game, and so far it looks and controls brilliantly! I haven't even thought about controls, they've just worked. That's awesome. Only thing I've noticed is that the music is amazing so far, but could have used some SFX for the intro. I'd love to hear rain, thunder, waterfall, wind, crackling fire, and maybe muddy footsteps. I'm a video/audio editor, though, so I work in VFX and SFX more than most.
Good that they're still in the game. At least there's that. I tried again, I'm not being given them. I'll try every day and night... It just isn't giving them to me... I want my free hats! From what little I played so far, I am excited to keep playing.
Haven't received any of the early-buyers hats here either. iPad 3, the OS before yesterdays update (haven't done it yet). Absolutely loving the game. My one control-related suggestion, is when using the pro-swipe mode, it would be nice to tap/hold to charge your attack without stopping movement.
Question about hats: Are they loot drops from bosses, common enemies, found in the destructible items in the environment, found in secret passages (which may or may not exist), and/or granted through achievements?
I have the newest ios that came out yesterday and still didn't get the early hats, so it's not an "old ios user" problem.
I have no words for this game. It is truly amazing. 5 stars is so few for it. I really have no words. Really well done devs. Truly outstanding work.
Hats are exclusively found in the big chests you come across. They no longer drop from enemies as they did in Mage Gauntlet due to the chaos a hat drop would cause in the middle of a fight, which is unacceptable in a permadeath game. Regular chests have a low chance for a hat, but the golden skull chests found at the end of mini-dungeons and mazes are a guaranteed drop, with a chance for a rare hat.
Controller support is my most wanted item. Love the pro swipe, but having trouble getting off specials with the right timing. I think I'll shelve this until the controller support update and play something else in the meantime.
The controls are elegante but I'll admit I would take 3 virtual buttons for attack and specials, as long as they are customizable. It's tricky to get the timing right with swipes. The option would be nice. Other than that, amazing game.
No hats... and just out of curiosity, can you beat the intro? *edit* I would also like buttons for specials, swipe just doesn't work when I need it too.
anyone else has issues with gamecenter achievements not showin? in game it shows i unlocked a few achievements but in gamecenter shows only one ach. unlocked is not a problem, just curious to know
To the devs: I noticed the first paragraph mentioning the intro price and that it will go up with each update. ***in the description this is clarified with the statement that all updates will b free for fans. Just a thought to add this to the top of the description*** I think that will get more people to buy in up front so u guys can kill it thru this weekend Downloading tonight....gotta wait for pay day, but so damn anxious to play!!!
I hate the blasted guard dog room. I've ran into it twice now with my rogue. And the dogs can jump through the jail cells like haxorz. You can do it too though with the Slick Kicks.
This game's amazing Definitely met my expectations (exceeded them really). I agree with a few other posters that an option for 'special' buttons would be nice to have. Played on iPad and iPhone and both versions are great (played 2 hours this morning before work ). If you have the $5 to spend this one is really a no-brainer. Heck I'd pay $20-$30 for this one.
Hey there ! Just bought the game ! Big fan of Mage Gauntlet, I waited for this "sequel" for a long time now The little intro ended up pretty fast during the "boss fight", I was a bit confused and didnt understand what was happening, especially because you start your adventure without any transition right afterwards... Nevertheless, the gameplay seems cool ! Also struggling sometimes with the mage to get the right input for the swipe actions, but nothing too annoying. On the other hand, I didn't get the "early buyers" hats Oh, and I play on a ios 7 4S iPhone, and it runs without any issues !
Has anyone found any Mage Gauntlet-esque secret passages in this game? The closest I've found is a destructible wall with one of those statues behind it, but it wasn't very secret since I could see the statue before I destroyed the wall.
100s?? Wow. I played 3 hours and only got 3 hats. But that's some great replayability. The box for hats seemed small so I was guessing like 30 hats when I first saw it. I guess I was wrong.
Mage Gauntlet-esque secret passages are gone (the ones where you had to hug east/west and south walls), but there are still destructible hidden paths like the one you encountered.
