Thanks for XF4Y63N96XJH (middle code). I've just played the first seven levels and it's a pretty cool game. You climb up a tower of blocks, to reach the exit, but along the way some blocks are in the wrong position, so you swipe them to push / pull them. You can swipe the blocks left, right, in or out. And you can hang off the side of a block. The robot has quirky animation as it runs to the blocks you touch and the game is well presented. A good first impression. A couple of minor issues: The hints at the start of levels sometimes disappear too fast, the tutorial text could be a little larger on the iPod and there's a few English mistakes. But, these are minor gripes, as game-play is neat. Nice work!
N3HYKE4MX3JE taken. Thanks a lot, much appreciated! This reminds me of those dream sequences from the Catherine (Katherine?) game on consoles. Let's see how it plays...

Just played through the web demo and I can't wait to try the iOS version and make comments and review it. Great game; I'm very excited about it!
iPod touch 2g can support I appreciate and thanks for the interest in our product 【Robo5 for iPhone/iPod touch】 will be released on 10.20.2011
Managed to pick up the game with a promo. Its great game! I love this so far, just completed the first set of levels. Great challenging puzzler, can't wait for the game to come out for other people to see how great it is. I suggest people pick this game up. I give it 4/5, it isn't perfect, but it's great. It's a simple one-touch puzzler, and I recommend to all that likes the puzzle genre. Just a few grammar errors, but nothing noticeable.
I really am liking this! The puzzles seem just right for the levels and the difficulty increases well. My one gripe is that text on the screen goes away too quickly so sometimes I miss a hint or a tutorial instruction but otherwise really fun. I am saving my full impressions for the release thread which can't come too soon since I want more people to be playing this awesome game!
Looks fantastic! That's a ton of graphical polish, especially for a 3D game. Oh and someone had to post this
Thank you guys. We are correcting our English text right now and will make change to help tip to let it show longer enough. These will come up with next update of robo5.
Oh wow this game looks awesome, I've had my eye on Catherine for a while but haven't seen it at any of my local stores and shipping from overseas is too much for my liking at the moment! (although I talked to someone who said that they would be getting it in soon!) The graphics look so cute as well x_x I'll try pick it up in about a week and post my impressions then
Really cool looking game, I'm not sure that I've seen anything with this type of climbing mechanic before on iOS (though I do now see plasmakirby3 post). Nice snappy animations, looks like a lot of fun. I checked out the web version. Very high production quality! Thanks for the post!
Catherine is a real must buy. One of the best and most "adult" (in the real sense) game i've ever played.
Yeah, I've watched some gameplay videos on IGN and was looking at it before it was released I think I should be able to pick it up at around Christmas!
Played the web demo, and wow! It feels and looks even better than it does in the video! Hopefully the game gets a smooth transition to the iOS because it plays fantastically on the PC.
The controls on the iPhone are great, but I found them to be just the tiniest bit off. Not because they aren't executed well, but because I can't get used to them. You tap on a square to move to it, climb on top of it, or hang off the side. That's fine. What I can't get used to is, to move a box or hang off a different side of a crate you need to hold your finger down for a fraction of a second before swiping in the desired direction. I know why it's been done like that and when I'm playing for fun it doesn't bother me in the slightest. During my (many) speed runs though, it can get a little detracting and I've accidentally jumped off a crate instead of moving to the side of it on occasion. But read that with a heap of salt, since this probably won't bother anyone else. I'm a bit OCD when it comes to speed runs and everything must be perfect otherwise I'm not happy. For all you normal people the controls should be perfect.
