Much improved with new controller support
The 3D graphic options do look really nice but they are not ideal for playing this game as you do really need to see the whole level in many cases to plan your egg strategy.
Response from developer
Thank you for updating your review and for the kind words about the recent controller and keyboard improvements. We're pleased to hear that the new control options are making the game more enjoyable on iPad and that you're finding the recreation faithful to the original BBC Micro version. Thank you also for the detailed feedback regarding the hanging ladders on Levels 5 and 6 when using a controller or keyboard. We've added this to our list for investigation. Feedback from experienced Chuckie Egg players is particularly valuable because it helps us identify subtle gameplay differences from the original versions. We're also grateful for your suggestions regarding redefinable keys and for your observations about the different viewpoints. As with the original app, we're continuing to review player feedback and look for ways to improve the experience in future updates. Thanks again for your support and for taking the time to help us make Chuckie Egg even better. — Steve, Nigel and all at Elite Systems.
Fun game but no backbone support
EDIT: please add support for all controllers. Nowadays most people will use Xbox/ps/switch compatible controllers rather than steelseries MFi ones. Also we need to be able to change the keys if using a keyboard on an iPad. The default cursor keys are not great.
Response from developer
Thank you for the review and for the kind comments about the game’s faithfulness to the original BBC version — we really appreciate it. We agree that controller support is important and support for additional controllers (including Backbone devices) is planned for a future update. We’re also continuing to refine the touch controls and menu/UI based on player feedback following launch. Thanks again for taking the time to share your thoughts and support Chuckie Egg®.
