  • Work so good with controller!

    So I’ve seen Apple Arcade recommend this game to me so I decided to download it because it looks like it would be good and it actually was it was very fun but the controls were a little tricky so I decided to use my Nimbus plus controller and it works so great I haven’t experienced any bugs or anything my only downfall is that it’s kind of hard to complete all courses in a level but overall it is a very fun parkour game and I’m looking to see cool updates in the future!

  • Love the game, one Issue

    Hot lava has been a blast! i have been hooked since i downloaded it on the app store! there is one major problem though, once you get inside the school area, the game glitches and your character drifts to the right/left. it has been pretty annoying to go through the harder courses with this issue, please fix this soon so we can all go back to enjoying this fantastic game!

  • Amazing mobile game but…

    At first I thought this would be a crappy and a bad parkour game but I was very wrong. This game is amazing and the graphics and levels are beautifully made and very true to the 90s. My only complaint is there are a lack of levels after you’ve played for a couple of hours. Me being a completionist I like to unlock every item and beat every level but the fan made levels just aren’t fun in my opinion but the actual game levels are super fun. But if you have Apple Arcade and just like sandbox or parkour games then this one is an absolute must download it is so much fun by yourself but even better with friends.

  • Great game! It’s just…

    I love playing this game. Everything about it is what every phone game should be. There is just one problem…

    When I play with my BackboneOne controller, the game will run smoothly for 10 minutes and then my character will lose control. I’ll end up jumping, running backwards, etc. I know it’s the game because my controller works without any problems with any other game/app.

  • Game plays great. Problem with controls

    I feel like I’m fairly decent at this game already. No record winning times or anything but just feel like I’m decent enough. But I just recently wanted to try out the boost jump and idk if I’m missing something or not because there’s no strafing unless you’re on a controller? Like how am I supposed to move side to side when my only options are forward and back. Changing where I’m aiming mid air doesn’t give me any speed, nor does hitting perfect jumps

  • Needs way more improvements

    This game is fun but the physics are terrible the jumping is terrible everything to the controls. When I want to jump I have to stand still for about a second which is annoying when I need to keep going. This game is much more improving and if you could fix those controls to make it so you can jump continuously I would love that. Also we need a setting to make it so you can do different types of controls like joystick controllers. It is broken and hopefully most people agree with me I’m giving us a one out of five stars. Please can you make it so at least you can jam multiple times it’s fine if you keep the thing where you cannot have just please fix the jumping. I’m keeping the app where I’m not gonna play until the update is here. I am going on strike.

  • Touch controls are absolutely horrendous

    Riddled with glitches, no alternate movement controls. The current movement controls are the worst I’ve ever experienced in a game before. The forward and back arrows have huge tap radiuses meanwhile left and right have the thinnest tap radiuses I’ve experienced. Probably less that an inch of to trigger left/right movement. Also sometimes you just won’t jump, nothing blocking your character’s head or anything, but can’t even get off the ground at all after doing the animation to start a jump. Bad design, even worse controls. The premise is great, execution was the worst.

  • Hot lava is a great game but could be better

    When I first found out about hot lava on my computer I was instantly hooked and was happy when I found out it was on the iPhone for Apple Arcade. But when you start to play the game you will notice some small issues that can get a little annoying. For one, my jump button sometimes randomly disables which can get annoying but pausing and continuing seems to fix it so it isn’t to bad. The second thing is the controls. As a game that I’m assuming was ported to the computer and with how much you can do the controls are actually really good, the only problem is that they are invisible half the time and I have to guess where to put my finger to jump instead of crouching and vice versa, but I’m sure a quick change by putting symbols or something to indicate certain features would make this easier. Other than that the controls are great and I appreciate the gyro controls since I play games like splatoon which made it feel similar to other games I play. Lastly is something small but as a 100% achievement person I’m a little annoyed about the “play on MacOS” and “play on TVOS” achievements since I don’t have those nor would buy them just for this game. All in all though this game is great and the little references to other klei games such as don’t starve and oxygen not included are awesome, keep up the great work!

  • Love it

    First off I love this game I love the comics the achievements the characters (my fav is Hazard btw) and I love the speed in the game. A few problems I have are these, first I have a hard time getting the controls to work. One time I used the controls and i didn’t move or anything. It could be that I was sweaty and my phone didn’t respond but it just stopped. Also I feel like when you get the pages it’s really hard because you have to find six pages in every map but it’s like a lil hard to find so I can’t really read it. Maybe like make 2 or 3 pages to find but like I really just wanna read the comic. That’s all so far I love it and I love the game. 😀
