This is really nicely done!!! Controls are sublime and work at treat for me, the graphics are fluid and beautifully retro.

Really well done

Thanks bloodline
With your experience in game-development it warms alot to hear such great feedback

For those interested, the game features 4 ingame control modes:
1. Relative Direct touch x2 (default)
2. Standard relative touch
3. Tilt
4. Joypad

In addition external control devices are planned later on this spring.

Hi Fryguy

You're right about that one and goldencode is really going to make the port shine on Android. You're in for a treat  :afro:

I don't doubt that my 2nd Gen iPod sucks and probably doesn't handle input as well. It was nice and snappy when I bought it, then within a few months an iOS update turned it into Windows 95 running on a 486. I almost feel like Apple is purposely screwing over older hardware and not even requiring apps to actually be certified on older hardware. It's amazing how few things work properly.

Could be an iOS version problem. It requires at least iOS 4.0 which has been tested to work :idea:
