    Ok let us end the bickering and blaming people. If you don't like this game then people who don't stop writing in the fourms. It doesn't seem to be a tap fest it looks like it requires thought and yes it's a game and the devs took their time with this regardless of what type of game this is.

    You're absolutely right, and I completely apologise for that. My original post was directed at somebody else, and when you replied to me stating that I claimed you called the developers a liar, for some reason I totally missed that you weren't the poster in question. For the record, I wasn't talking about you, but about Cofunguy. Sorry again for the misunderstanding.

    Looks like we both got a little wire-crossed on this one. ^_^

    Found a bug on level 37, if you try to block one of the spinning blades into a corner with the circle with 3 stripes on it, the game will freeze. The 2 tiles overlap & that looks like what causes the game to freeze.

    Thanks for the report! I just confirmed this. It's actually on level 38 (level 37 doesn't have any mallets). I'll put it in the list and we'll address it ASAP. Thanks again! :)

    Um, this does NOT fail that definition. It is a form of play, with a set of rules, that is decided by skill and occasionally luck. What part of that can you argue?

    They didn't promise anything not there. If you messed up and got something not to your taste, that's your failing. You do not deserve a refund.

    Having reached level 31 on my iPhone last night I've now installed it on my iPad Mini, upon launching it has my levels back at the start???

    Okay, just launched again on iPhone and instead of 31, the first 10 are shown, only level 10 didn't have any completed time against it so I've just completed it again and now it shows the next 10 levels as done and I've had to complete level 20 to get the next 10 to show with all my times again???

    Launched on iPad again and they both appear to now show the first 30 done at least - definitely something very flaky with the iCloud sync though.

    Oops, meant to put level 38, sorry. Great game by the way, tricky but satisfying :)

    Here, here! Substantive points can be clearly made with decorum and respect.

    Slight usability issue: there doesn't appear to be any way to get back to the main menu once you've entered a level (if you've selected the wrong level, for example), apart from to actually go ahead and play the level, and either fail or complete it.
    I would've thought tapping on the level number on the left would bring up the menu, but no joy...

    okay here's an honest question critique: so theres 100 levels and thats it? is there any replayability to this game? or will it just sit in a folder on my phone after i beat the levels

    there is endless replayability, and not just in replaying the first 100 levels. there are more than 100 levels. i don't want to give away any spoilers so that's all i'll say. if you want PM me and I can speak more to it.

    Good idea! Pause is something we struggled with, but on the iPhone5 that makes a lot of sense. iPhone5s came around very late into development. I'll add that to the list for possible features in an update. thanks for the feedback.

    No problem. I didn't even realise the iPad version didn't come with a side-menu, like the iPhone 5 does. I just launched the iPad version now after playing for quite awhile initially on the iPhone 5, and yeah, it's quite different! :(

    I'd also put forward the request of separate music and sound-fx options in the settings menu, if you're taking suggestions... :)
    I like to all play my games with the music off but the sound-fx on.
    Cheers.

    Not really feeling this. It might be because I'm playing on an iPhone where the game becomes more frustrating than it is fun. The game isn't bad, but with all the press this is getting I expected a lot more out of it.

    Pretty cool game. I remember this genre being somewhat popular on iOS awhile back, but I never found a good take on it before.

    But uh, is it REALLY worth 3 dollars?? And what the hell, it's going to be 5 DOLLARS soon if I'm hearing things right??? Is this "game" (in quotes because it's being hotly debated as to whether this is a "quote" unquote "game") REALLY WORTH 5 dollars?

    I dunno

    (leaning back and watching this thread get constantly bumped to the top with price arguments)

    Totally worth $3. I didn't regret the purchase one bit. Play it on iPad or the mini... This type of game is better on the larger screen.

    This does appear to be a variation on the make circles fill the screen without touching something else genre that we had too many of in the past. It does look like an improvement on those, but I'm not sure if I want to spend $3 on this. Maybe. Not sure.

    Just to add some perspective to all of this, I just paid over $3 to add bacon and avocado to the omelette I just ate.

    edit: Wasn't even organic or gourmet in any way.

    I'll buy if Semi Secret tells me where the robots that attacked the world in Canabalt came from....
