FMV post-apocalyptic horror/thriller adventure from the writers/designers of SOMA, The Witcher, Broken Sword. Coming this year

 

[okno]

I am playing way, way, way too many games at the same time right now, but I just wanted to chime in to also say that Implosion is absolutely worth the money. Gorgeous game with absolutely rock solid controls. If you like Devil May Cry and things like that, get it!

 

[killercow]

Then that sucks man. About 85-90% of the races/events cause it to crash.

I'm keeping the iPad at 8.2 or whatever it is.


YES!!! Restoring worked. It works again. My crack rock is back on the phone!

Oh, I was wrong then Good to know it worked at least, enjoy!

 

[PittaGAF]

Yes, there is a mirror card.

It summons the last card for +1 elixir . So s mirror will summon a 5 elixir giant again for 6

Oh.
Thanks

I can just smell Arena 5 then.

I was curious and never did this before....I watched some ultra high level recorded matches with the in game TV. Insane!!!
I couldn't almost recognize a single unit

Got Space Marshals before, looking forward to trying it later.

Goo Saga is one of those charming platformers that probably compares most to Leo's Fortune. It's not at the same level of that classic but it's got lovely graphics and soundtrack, nice multipath levels to explore and light puzzle elements. It also has an upgrade system and boss battles (which I haven't gotten to yet in the first three levels).

It may end up being on the short side with 19 levels in all but it has survival and speed runs that can be unlocked for each. Also has a level editor, which I haven't messed with yet (this is one reason I probably should have waited for this on iOS as I would expect a bigger community -- there's not a single user made level on Android yet).

All in all a nicely polished platformer. Not too difficult so far but quite enjoyable.

I am ready for another Leo´s Fortune similar game, and the smashing sold me. Nice. Awaiting

Barrier X is DOOOOOPE! Played it all day yesterday. Took me forever to realize the lanes turn red as a warning

The trick to succeed in that game is to always steer left or right, and keep going in that direction, since it seems like the lanes are infinite. Nice game, but not my cup of tea.

Agreed. Implosion is legit. Dat framerate...gotta love it when devs go the extra mile.

Finally we got the fourth chapter out, phew! Has anyone played the new levels or unlocked the new character yet? how do you like them?

To celebrate the release of the 1.5.0 update, I thought to share some promo-codes! Next five people to post & ask will get a code. I'll PM you with the code asp.
(hopefully this is okey, I'll remove the offer if this is counted as selfpromo)

Hi asa, don't need a code but I do have a question.
On Apple TV, there seems to be a bug. When you die and it shows remaining lives, there's no way to get off the screen.

Is this a known issue? Makes the game unplayable at the moment.

Hmm, We quickly looked into this issue and it seems to be bit of a user interface stumble on our part, you need to press right/left side of the controller to continue, it might not be logical thing to try in the situation.
Please try that and if that doesn't work then you have found a legit bug. We will issue a fix in the next patch if so.

Very much enjoying Power Hover (thanks asa for the code!) - I've played the first four levels, but keep replaying to try and get all the batteries on each level. I seem to be awful at the grinding level so I need more practice on that one.

Great fun so far though.

There is one open spot in the Neogaf Clash Royale clan (#20Y9PQ). For GAF members only. Mention you are a Gaffer , with your neogaf user name, when you request.

Sent a request!

 

[OCD Guy]

Out of interest do any of you use controllers to play any games?

I'm kinda tempted to pick up a controller but not sure if it's worth it.

Purchased geometry wars 3 as its on sale and very impressed. A very smooth 60fps game.

 

[Pachimari]

Is Geometry Wars 3 playable with the touch-screen or is it rather uncomfortable?

 

[OCD Guy]

Is Geometry Wars 3 playable with the touch-screen or is it rather uncomfortable?

It actually feels quite good. The controls are very responsive.

I'm playing on an iPad Pro and am using my index fingers (rather than thumbs) as iPad is resting on Smart Cover and it plays very well.

It doesn't use a fixed dpad so wherever you press on the left side of the screen is where the virtual dpad is. Moving around feels very nice. Dare I say it feels like I can actually navigate much quicker than with an analogue stick. I'm still getting used to shooting though.

I wasn't a fan of touch controls in general but since my focus on iOS gaming and playing games like brothers a tale of two sons, implosion etc I'm actually beginning to get used to them. I think my hate for touch controls was stronger on early games that used a fixed dpad location. That doesn't feel right at all.

Going back to geometry wars, I'd say it's well worth picking up at it's current price point. It looks really good with a silky smooth framerate, and there will be lots to do to get your money's worth.

Hi Asa once again thanks for giving me the opportunity to play your game. I like it so far.

My only criticism at this stage would be the framerate. I'm not sure how easy it would be to rectify, or whether it's a limitation in some way, but I think a higher framerate would certainly enhance the game for me.

I've tested it on a 6s and iPad Pro and the framerate is slightly choppy in places, movement isn't quite smooth, and I feel given the game mechanics a higher framerate would help.

Out of interest can anything be done?

 

[Pachimari]

Oh this reminds me, that my mother is bringing her iPad 2 with her on our vacation tomorrow, so maybe I'll buy it for that one. Sounds like it could be a great play.

Any iPad-exclusive games or games that are better played on iPad than on iPhone?

Also just bought Prune.

 

[OCD Guy]

I find a lot of games are better on an iPad due to the bigger screen.

If you didn't know there is a 50% sale on certain "pay once and play" games, transistor is one of them on sale and if you've not played it before I'd say that is a very good game to play on an iPad, and again has a lot of content for the price.

Infact there's also brothers: a tale of two sons and implosion on sale and again they are good games that would definitely benefit from the bigger iPad screen.

Definitely. Once I got an iPad Mini, I can't go back to playing most games on my iPhone, aside from the one-handed games like Card Crawl, Hoplite, 80 Days

Out of curiosity do you or have you used a game pad to play iOS games? If not, why haven't you?

As you come across as someone who seems to play a lot of iOS games I'd be interested in your thoughts.

Also if anyone is into edm music there is a paid game that has now gone free. It's a rhythmic based tapping game https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/party-gods/id1035124525?mt=8 worth trying it out.

 

[infiniteloop]

If the options is there, i use a controller yes. Controller support has come a long way over the last couple of years.

If something would work better with a controller (i.e. Lost Socks), i'll just wait until it supports it.

I play a ton of games on iOS and still have refused to get a gamepad. Think I'm just stubborn in that I want my mobile games to be just that -- mobile.

Also probably doesn't help that I do console gaming and save most of my mobile playing in bed, when my wife is watching something I'm not interested in, on the go or, of course, the toilet .

I've got a steelseries nimbus in my Apple Store basket so I think I'll just go for it. If I really don't like I can always return it.

No, never used a gamepad on my devices. Just never felt a need. Most games control just fine with touch and I think the best mobile games are partially defined by playing best with touch rather than needing an accessory to fully enjoy.

The ones that don't and would probably play better with a gamepad like first person shooters don't have many games on the mobile in the first place, and I'll just enjoy those genres on PC/consoles

 

[Voidance]

Yes, I have the Nimbus. It's a nice controller.

I'll also voice my love of the Nimbus. Great controller. I prefer using a controller where supported but won't turn down well-implemented touch controls.

Harvest Moon Seeds of Memories. Though it's not all that great, just decent enough to scratch the itch.

From Touch Arcade (grain of salt as always):

I've been spending my morning trying to figure out what's going on with the App Store. I've heard a bunch of different rumors from a bunch of different connected people about something big happening in these next two weeks, but have been totally unsuccessful in connecting any more than two dots. Is there a huge surprise game coming out this week? Is there some kind of App Store reorganizing taking place? All I know is more than a few developers were asked to reschedule their game launch away from this week. Which seems... odd, but it might explain why this week's release list is a little more scant than normal. I'm hoping these various rumblings mean we're going to see something different resulting from the App Store leadership shakeup from late last year, but it could just mean another massive game is coming that's getting the Clash Royale [Free] mega-feature treatment? Or it could mean nothing! That's the greatest part about Apple rumors!

I can't see anything too crazy... why not wait till WWDC if thats the case. Still interesting.
