Not the smallest game on my iPhone (2.5MB for LED Football) but easily in the top 5 smallest games I have installed. They did a good job coding this and keeping it small. masvil Well-Known Member Apr 24, 2011 420 0 0 #9 masvil, Jan 1, 2013 Indeed. nightc1 Well-Known Member Oct 19, 2012 4,362 0 0 AL #10 nightc1, Jan 1, 2013 After playing this some today, I gotta say the game is awesome! I feel a little guilty getting this free. Maybe I'll buy one of the devs other games. Any recommendations between Gridrunner, Caverns of Minos or Minotaur Rescue?

Athos Well-Known Member May 21, 2011 247 0 0 #12 Athos, Jan 1, 2013 Gridrunner is the best but Minotaur Rescue has single-device multiplayer that's really funny.

Great freebie, thanks for posting! masvil Well-Known Member Apr 24, 2011 420 0 0 #14 masvil, Jan 2, 2013 Gridrunner if you like shutmups. Anyway they are all great games! nightc1 Well-Known Member Oct 19, 2012 4,362 0 0 AL #15 nightc1, Jan 2, 2013 I think I'll go grab Gridrunner. Thanks for the feedback. Sorry for derailing the thread, Super Ox Wars just caught me off guard in how great it is. laszlo_kovacs Well-Known Member Sep 26, 2012 205 0 0 #16 laszlo_kovacs, Jan 2, 2013 Gridrunner all day. I had a similar quandary when I found about Minter's games. That and Super Ox Wars are my favorite. Also got GoatUp, which is fun, and Minotaur Rescue. I'd recommend the latter third if you like Asteroids. nightc1 Well-Known Member Oct 19, 2012 4,362 0 0 AL #17 nightc1, Jan 2, 2013 Picked up Gridrunner after trying the free version. Very nice game too. I can see over time getting all of these games. backtothis im in ur base killin ur d00dz Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze Jul 13, 2009 13,250 1 0 college student (junior) Houston/Austin, TX https://twitter.com/back2this #18 backtothis, Jan 2, 2013 Never been interested in or played anything by Llamasoft.

So sad, cause this would be such a good tv game. Anyone know if gridrunner works on hdmi? nightc1 Well-Known Member Oct 19, 2012 4,362 0 0 AL #20 nightc1, Jan 2, 2013 I tried both games over AirPlay with my appletv and I didn't have any crashing issues. There's a demo for Gridrunner ... maybe give it a try. Side note to that, I can't seem to get used to the Gridrunner controls on my iPhone. The demo's controls seemed better. It's a good game but I know I'm doing something wrong. (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
