Very disappointingly awkward, touchy, and difficult controls — couldn't even finish the tutorial. Developer, if you can fix this deal-breaking problem let me know. I’ll download it again and update my review. If you need control problem specifics, I respectfully suggest an update and some thorough beta-test play-throughs by non-biased casual-play gamers before you push out an improved version. Good luck, thanks in advance, and kudos for your ongoing efforts. I’d love to be able to give your adventure both another go and more ratings stars…👍 P.S. The Developer’s website link, PharosFables, seems broken, netting only a “server can’t be found” message, at least when using mobile Safari on my iPad Pro 10.5” running iOS 15 (other known sites are connecting fine…)……………………………………………………………………………………. ***Developer’s 7/30/2022, response via email is pasted in here: "Thanks a ton for this feedback. It looks like there were some cert issues on my site that I've had to work through, but I have an updated URL under App Support that should resolve the problem you were experiencing. As far as the mobile controls, I was originally inspired by SNES controls, and I tried to mimic my non-mobile version of this game as much as possible with the touch controls. If you have any particular examples of mobile platformer games you enjoyed the feel for, please feel free to share them with me, and it could be a consideration I do in the future with the game. If you are still interested in playing the game outside of mobile, I have it available on Steam, and if you hold off for a little while longer, it's currently in the works of getting marked down to being free on there. It also should be available on Itch very soon as well."
