Anyone got any recommendations for a tower defence game? Preferably one that doesn't require IAP's to beat. I just finished up Kingdom Rush and I had a great time with that.

Sentinel 3 (often free)
Geo defense
Geo defense swarm

Are three very different but great tower defense games.

Super Stickman Golf 2 is coming soon, the new trailer looks nice!

Threw around some mad edits to the OP, let me know what you think of it.

Looking slick! I like the template for the games.

I used to play The Creeps a lot. Only stopped because an update killed my save file one time.

I feel the same way, it reminds me of how iTunes handles things now when you select an album.

re: TWEWY: Live Remix: I don't know, SE has been pretty quiet but it'd be a really big missed opportunity for them not to make it availiable worldwide. I have a feeling it's coming out everywhere anyways .

King Cashing 2 feels like its so short, I already beat 2 out of 3 chapters. Chapter 4 is 'coming soon' but who knows what that means

What's a good controller for iOS? Mainly for emulators.

I bought an iCade Bitty, but the d-pad is very unresponsive. Pressing a direction isn't enough, you have to press and then apply a good amount of pressure for it to register (almost feels like using one of the rare PS games with pressure sensitive buttons). You have to think about being sure to push "correctly" just enough that it takes you out of the game, defeating the purpose of using a controller instead of touch controls.

The iControlPad looks cool, and the upcoming 2 looks even better, but christ are they expensive.

If you're emulating then I guess you're jailbroken, I used a wiimote + classic controller.

 

[Flunkie]

Holy shit! Those game banners are awesome. However, I think it's important to have multiple screenshots. But, if they're interested, they have those on the store anyways. Either way, those are sexy. Appel shud hire joo.

I got a bit of a random question for you guys.

I noticed that even though I only use 3 of the 4 rows available on my first screen on the ipad, everytime I download a new app it will always go to the second screen. Is there any way to fix that?

 

[Gamecocks625]

Friends, is Table Top Racing worth a pack of gum and the precious time it would take to chew it?

I love it. Starts off slow but save up for the GT and money wheels. Great fun. Then you're flying around the track in no time.

 

[Flunkie]

Any sales on iTunes Gift Cards?

I believe that's intentional. Don't know of a way to change that.

Backflip Madness is pretty damn fun.

That was my thinking with the screens, also less bloat. I endeavour to have a trailer for each game listed as well.

Anyway, thanks.

 

[yogloo]

Great OP!
Going to try out backflip madness with all the recommendations in here.

 

[svegis]

Going to spend my buck on this post appreciating the thread.
Even better than the thread from last month!

Great OP!

I definitely think it's worth it. Nailing the perfect backflip down two stories is pretty satisfying =D

 

[Adam Scott Aukerman]

I'm intrigued by backflip because I used to have a weakness for flash games of that ilk about a decade ago, I can't quite tell what the control scheme is though based on the trailer. Would anyone care to explain it?

 

[Tunesmith]

Backflip Madness seems to be the QWOP of... backfliping?

 

[DKehoe]

Just got an iPhone and I'm beginning to dip my toe into the world of iOS gaming. Thanks for the OP by the way, should be really useful.

This probably isn't possible but I was wondering, if a buy a universal version of a game as well as playing it on my iPhone can I play it on my dad's ipad or would it be locked to one user's devices?

On a related note, I imagine Sword and Sworcery works best on iPad but does it play ok on iPhone?

It is actually very possible! You can install your apps on as many devices as you want.

On top of those that were mentioned I had a great time with the likes of Spice Bandits, geoDefense, Towers and Trolls and TowerDefense.

 

[DKehoe]

They don't. I figured that would be a problem. Ah well, as I was asking earlier, does Sword and Sworcery play ok on iPhone?

 

[Cromulent_Word]

Many of us on the dev team prefer it on iPhone, while others prefer it on iPad. I believe it holds up on either device.

Thanks! Been looking forward to getting to play it, looks great.

You only need to be logged in on the same Apple ID during download/install, after that you can sign out again and swap over to the other ID again. Game progress will be independent between the two devices though.

Anyone interested in buying an iCade? It's the "good" version, as seen here:

Hey GAF, I don't play phone games very often, but I noticed a bunch of line drawing free games the other day, I'm sure people know them, they're about meeting two coloured circles in a grid, and taking up all available space, and there are lots of these games, I'm just wondering which game did it first that everyone has ripped off?

 

[EleventhDoctor]

I've just started getting into the Hunters series, starting with episode One. I'm having a tough time-some of the Contracts are Defend the Generators and I just get decimated. I bought a health pack in the store but I never seem to have a chance to use one - and my guys just get destroyed.

The series relies on tactics and replayability with the levelling up of your team. Episode One is pretty basic, once you've gotten a hang of it I fully recommend you jump into Hunters 2 which fleshes out the mechanics a bit and adds a campaign mode. Still play it ever so often, love it.

If you happen to have both Hunters, I would suggest you to play directly Hunters 2.
I consider Hunters Episode one just Hunters 2 alpha.
Hunters 2 has a nice little campaign that set the mood, a more streamlined but more fun and balanced set of rules...and as a whole is a much better game IMHO (I dismissed H1 after 10 days or so...it was 'soul-less' for me, while I spent over 100 hours in Hunters 2 which is my last year GOTY and I still play contracts daily...some of them still wipe out my maxed out Assault Rifle team).

The only thing that mitigated my disappointment for no new campaigns/heroes/retina/iCloud support is because the dev is busy working on Warhammer Quest.

 

[Korosenai]

So I don't understand how the online works in Real Racing 3. I'm obviously not playing these people real time, so what's the point?

Thanks for the heads up, friend. I am downloading Hunters 2 as we speak. I found the first one to be promising, but a bit rough around the edges.

 

[Tunesmith]

You're racing the recorded runs of your friends and other people. As long as you're online every car is another player's recorded run on that track.

Actual real-time multiplayer is slated in an update later on I believe.

While I'm incredibly excited for Warhammer Quest, the developer is notorious for over promising features and updates to their games and never actually delivering those things until the next game thereafter. Thus I'm a bit vary about all the things they've promised for WQ and wether or not we'll actually get to see them.

I don't think those games are 'new' to iOS, but the oldest one I know of is PathPix from 2009. It hasn't been updated in ages though. More recently Hubrix is pretty cool, and I really like Puzzle Restorer (which is a bit different, and also not free

Speaking of which, the first daily contract for today was awesome (rescue the scientits, small map).

Well....to be honest I would be really happy with just a Hunters 2 fantasy re-skin, but I would be lying if all those things officially announced didn't make me salivating (events and in-dungeon happenings in particular).
I didn't even paid attention to the 'future support' things this time (like coop, sigh).
I can't really blame them for jumping on the Warhammer opportunity, but I noticed that since a long while they kept their lips sealed disappearing from every forums.
I want to belive.

I have an unprecedented amount of hype for WHQ
