Looks like it could be fun. No Game Center support is a bummer though.

I agree with this.

Very nice animations and solid controls, only played three levels, seems like a nice and polished platformer to me so far.

Played a bit, have yet to try it on my iCade, but look forward to trying.

The on screen controls are adequate, but personally I would have preferred arrows rather than the virtual joystick, you would think you could aim upwards or or downwards with the joystick, but you can't which is a bit of a bummer, as the AI can do this.

The buttons for jump and shoot are very small by default but it's possible to configure the size, unfortunately the virtual joystick also increase in size when you do this, and becomes much too big.

It's not possible to reposition the controls, but the joystick automatically follows your finger when you move it. The buttons doesn't, though, but you can still shoot and jump if you press above the buttons.

I would much have preferred to be able to adjust the default button placement though, especially when playing on my iPad.

Besides my gripes with the controls, I really enjoy the game.
Old school fell is spot on and I'm having fun.
