Could be fun..

Could be a good platformer, but the controls aren’t good no matter how I moved the buttons around, mainly the left and right movement, difficulty is quite hard too

Okay

Extremely difficult platformer... obstacles kill you entirely too easily. (Eg spikes kill you if you just brush up against them once, which is too easy to do with crappy controls and random layout of levels) sometimes you respawn and then get killed by laser immediately because you spawned underneath a laser... bad
Little creature dots attack you and you usually have no space to maneuver so you die. Give the character some more health and I can see this platformer being better. As is, its entirely too difficult to be any fun.
If masochism is your thing, you’ll love this game. Otherwise, I’d wait till update that lowers difficulty

Unplayable

Controls are horrid. When you die over and over and can attribute 100% to controls that is not acceptable. Goes left wen I say right stands still when I say jump and just generally doesn't respond the way I want it tool at all on any level.
Hard is one thing. Being hard because you can't control anything is another thing completely.

Hard game!

This is really great game. My only criticism is that I wish the zombie sounds weren’t present and there was music. Highly recommend it though. I also love SpaceGrunts by the same dev.

Okay

Great game but please improve touch controls I moved the buttons really far apart and when I hit the right button it goes left still. Other than that great game!

Not what I thought

This game has a lot of potential but I really wish there was a mode where you could save your progress and keep the items you've accumulated rather than lose everything after losing your 3 lives (which is very easy to do BTW). I suspect that it was designed that way and I just bought the wrong type of game but if the developer could add a mode like this it would only add to the appeal for people like me.

Response from developer

Sadly that's part of the "roguelike" game style. instant-death. However completing the game does unlock items which stay unlocked. (best to avoid roguelike games from now on if you don't like instant-death/replay)

Great Game (Beat The Game)

After playing through the game, I'm happy to give 5 stars. If you like perma death style platformers you'll like this.

Refund

How do I refund my game. It is not at all like I expected for the 2 min I had played

Awful controls

Awful controls ruin what could be a good game. The touch sensitive area above the buttons is too small, meaning you'll constantly miss it and accidentally remain still when an enemy is coming... or worse, accidentally press left when you wanted to walk right.

You CAN enlarge the buttons, but this doesn't fix the problem, as you will still constantly "miss" the buttons.

Just about every 2d platformer I've played on ios treats entire areas of the screen as the buttons. I don't get why this one can't.
