    My device is jailbroken and I can play the game with my Dual Shock 4 but the layout seems off to me since every button can do something. I was wondering what the intended button scheme was. For science, this is how it's mapped on a PS3/4 controller:

    D-pad and both v-sticks: movement
    Circle/L2: jump
    X/Triangle: attack
    Square/R2: roll
    L1: map
    R1: pause
    select/start: options

    Really great game, guys! It would be great if you could make it so exiting the game in the middle of a session didn't set your current score to 0 tho :(

    There's a bunch of cheaters on GC. What score is legit currently? Who owns first place?
    I'm at 7k+ right now, trying to stay away from bad places like dungeons with trolleys...

    Everything above the 10,830 aren't legit at all.

    I already contact them. They'll be removed soon. Matt has the real top score! :)

    Someone found any other cheaters on Donut Games? I already reported and Mikael removed almost all. :)

    Hey, I know this has probably been asked but is there any word on another game or new levels to the current one? This was so great and I am already missing it. Thanks for any info.

    I too would buy a sequel/expansion without a moment's hesitation. Fantastic game.

    Great game. So the lives are infinite and the only issue if u die is coin loss? I'm not a high score chaser so it's just one long push through!

    seems like this game does not like my Logitech Powershell MFI controller. Only the pause button works :(

    Or if the game closes, but the money comes back. It's a measure of how much loot you can get in one sitting, basically.

    Finally got around to playing all the other donut games that I binge bought after falling in love with this one. They are all very polished, but feel a bit casual compared to my favorite donut games game: Traps n' Gemstones

    If you don't have this yet, get it now!

    Yeah, donut games are all very well done for what they are, but most of them are a bit too simple for my tastes. I've never played a bad donut game, though, even if it wasn't my cup of tea.

    Traps n' Gemstones, though... What a masterpiece! Truly one of my favorite games of 2014, and I'm not just talking iOS, either. I have a particular fondness for metroidvanias, though, so my opinion is unashamedly biased, lol.

    One of the best games this year. If you do not have it yet, definitely take advantage of this awesome sale!

    Bought this a few days ago and man do i feel stupid skipping on this before and choosing other titles for my one-purchase-per-week diet.

    Fantastic platformer with heavy exploration elements make this one of the best on iOS.

    I have progressed quite far already, and am now trying to get that emblem in the long cart ride scene. This part of the game reminds me heavily of VVVVVV's Veni-Vidi-Vici section to get the orb. :D

    Having a blast playing this!

    Just completed the game, but im short of getting 100%. My guess is that im missing those hidden wall-doors that hide collectibles well. Maybe i should google for a complete map. :p

    Overall this game's pretty fantastic, and i feel a bit bad not getting it sooner.

    An easy 5-stars from me.

    A gem of a game to be sure. Not too long and satisfying while your getting through it.

    I think the length could be better, but the game shows i had a blast playing it for a little more than 4 hours to complete the story, and that's not bad at all considering every minute was every bit of fun.
