    Hoorah! I finally got a time of 11:25 :) However, I think that I also did that run without dying for the first time as well, but I only unlocked the speed achievement on the title screen. Afterwards, I did another run-through, this time I'm positive that I didn't blow up, and it didn't unlock. Did it break when I did both in one run?

    How do you replay a level? There is no level select? (sorry to bump a very old thread)

    You cant, the game is designed so you have to play it contianually, no level select screen or anything :)

    This IS hands down one of the best games ever for iOS, two years after release...
     
  7. Is this game any good? Anyone play it on an ipad? How are the controls?

    Saw the thread revival and picked this up. Glad I did. The controls took me more than a little getting used to (mostly jump timing due to the fact that you jump when you release the screen, not when you touch it) but I'm mow determinedly working through my second playthrough. I've already blown my chance to get all the cogs, and died many times, but I'm still working through so I'm ready for attempt number three!

    Thanks for inadvertently setting me onto this one, Connector.

    It only took me 3 and a half years or so but I've finally completed the game with all gears. Speed run is down to 14:47. The Last Rocket remains one of my all time top 10 games on iOS.

    Speed run completed, I beat the game in 00:11.45. I should have had the 'beat the game without blowing up challenge' too but for a couple of silly mistakes. That's my next aim.

    Nice work Andy. I love this game. Still one of the best games on the platform IMO, and I'm pretty sure you were the one who put me onto it.

    The <25% achievement took me days.

    Don't think I'll ever manage it without dying though.

    Cheers Bez. I haven't attempted the <25% achievement yet but I can see that it will be a tricksy one.

    I thought that beating the game without dying would be too difficult aswell, but having played quite a bit over the past few days doing speed runs I now know it's possible.
