32bit

Apple announced all apps should be 64bit back in 2014 so not sure why this app is still 32bit 3 years later.

Nice pixel art

I really like the pixel art and things like the dissolve and reform pixel animations when you die.

Control options

I really like this game as a child and I still like it now. This game is pretty much an exact duplicate of the PC version from my childhood. The only thing I don't like is the control options. The on screen toggle just seems in the way and the other method often doesn't let you move right to the edge of the screen. I have a Bluetooth keyboard for my iPad and I wish there was an option to use the arrow keys on the keyboard as a control instead.

Fun/needs work

To the Dev's: I seriously hope you don't give up on this game because it has the potential to be a super fun one! In my opinion, the only thing that's frustratingly quirky is the controls. The graphics are pretty good, the game concept is fun and its challenging enough without being too difficult. If you update the controls I think you have the recipe for a fantastic game. I for one will return to give you the rating this game deserves. Thank you :-) ~Shine~ from WA, State
