    Hi there folks, Yowan from Juicy Beast here (www.juicybeast.com)!

    We are currently working on the iOS version of one of our most popular title, Knightmare Tower. It has previously been released as a Flash game in 2012 and it's also available for the OUYA as we speak. We've had a lot of great feedback so far!

    We still don't have any official release date for iOS, but we're working on it right now. Compared to the Flash version, we completely revamped the game and added a bunch of details that makes the whole experience way better! You can see more about the new version on www.knightmaretower.com.

    Here's some footage of the game being played on iPad. You can see that we completely redid the controls for mobile devices. We've spent a lot of time polishing the tilt controls, and we think the game ended up being much more enjoyable than if we simply had slapped a virtual joystick on top ;)



    EDIT:
    Oh, and just to make sure, the game will also be available on iPhone and iPod.

    As much as I dislike tilt controls, they look to make sense here. Burrito Bison was a blast, so this will be an insta-buy!

    Looking at the video, this is instabuy. Rarely do tilt games get my attention, and this one did it well.

    It's not really like Sonic Jump (or Doodle Jump), since you're focusing more on slashing enemies than landing on them. Falling down won't kill you, but you'll lose a good amount of speed. The main goal is to kill as much monsters to gain speed without getting hit by them or falling down the tower.

    There's also 2 modes, Story and Infinite. You have a certain amount of princesses to rescue before you get to the final boss, which then unlocks the infinite mode.

    And unfortunately, the game can't run on iPod 4 since it doesn't have enough memory. We really wish Apple would have implemented more, since it's a really good device and it's not that old :\ We will definitely let everyone know if we manage to get the game running on iPod 4 though!

    This looks more like a fast paced version of SlamBots rather then Sonic Jump

    Hey Devs, please tell me that it will cost two or three bucks and not
    a ftp crap !?

    Vibrant colors, a gorgeous art style and the gameplay looks to be
    exactly right up my alley. Looking very forward !

    It's priced at $2.99 if I'm not mistaken.

    Found something interesting. A blatant rip-off of Knightmare Tower. Make sure your money is going to the right developer.

    I found a great preview for Knightmare Tower on youtube, and the reviewer said 2.99 and NO IAP. Looking so forward for this one: levels, great graphics, missions, upgrades, power-ups, a premium game with unlockables and an endless mode :D
