Ghosts and monsters lurk inside his magnificent custom painted flying saucer, but Eileen, the new ninja in town, is at the right place at the right time and so she gets to go on an adventure that is as nostalgic as it is NEW.Inspired by really good classic games like Ninja Gaiden, Super Mario and Metroid, Mystery of the J-Werewolf was designed to be as comfortable as holding an old NES controller, but also to use the modern features of iOS devices in unique ways.A classic platformer made by someone who played lots of them. The old meets the new in this new spin on 2D sidescrollers!==================================What people are saying? Do you really want to know? Yes? YES YOU DO!=================================="a great job at feeling modern while still being very retro" - 148Apps (4 stars out of 5!)"it looks good, the sound is a treat for anyone who gets off on nostalgia, it's fun to play, and it has a talking dinosaur" - Slide to Play (3 stars out of 4!)"music to the ears of anyone who’s been waiting for a retro iOS game that actually captures the spirit of retro game design rather than plopping pixelated graphics over bare-bones gameplay" - iFanzine"its often hilarious writing makes it worth a download even without the deliciously classic gameplay" - AppoliciousYou can see a gameplay trailer on the Support link (or http://is.gd/jwerewolftrailer)==================================This game is Retina Ready for iPhone/iPod and iPad. Sure, since it's pixel art, all you get will be larger pixels. But, hey: at least we're safe from horrible, blurry interpolation!==================================As of 1.06, J-Werewolf has 3 touch-screen control options and supports Joypad and some other popular joystick hardware. One of these options should really fit your needs. PLEASE, try them all before writing a review. The controls in J-Werewolf are fine!

Good game, wait to buy it. syntheticvoid Well-Known Member Jun 20, 2010 14,504 124 63 Musician & factory worker. a[V-O-I-D] http://apparentsymmetry.bandcamp.com #4 syntheticvoid, Mar 17, 2012 Agreed. It's very upsetting. DON'T GET IT WHILE IT'S FREE!!! Wait until you can help support this amazingly supportive and talented developer. awp69 Well-Known Member Oct 30, 2009 8,249 0 36 Greenville, SC #5 awp69, Mar 17, 2012 Sorry guys. Guess maybe I shouldn't have posted this. I haven't been following the main thread mainly because I knew (at the time) I couldn't play it. Picked this up when I saw it free only because I've been spending too much lately on the AppStore. BUT I will definately be sure to support this dev on his next effort! Even though it's free now, I hope it gets it some more attention, word of mouth and future sales. Seems pretty damn good so far and deserves it. Royce Well-Known Member Mar 22, 2011 4,239 179 63 #6 Royce, Mar 17, 2012 By all means if you would pay for it then wait. It's a great game, well worth it's normal price. However, if you aren't sure you would otherwise pick it up, get it now. I'm sure this free promotion is an attempt to boost downloads and ratings to help future sales, so it all helps. Just remember to review in iTunes if you pick it up and like it. hotbarlo Well-Known Member Dec 22, 2011 58 0 0 Game designer São Paulo, Brazil http://walljumpexplained.com/jwerewolf #7 hotbarlo, Mar 17, 2012 You guys are the greatest. Seriously! : ) Weirdly, after the last update, I've been getting a few days with 0 sales total. That's a new low. So, in hopes of getting some reviews and ratings, I decided to give it for free until monday. I hope this is the last time I have to do that. Last week I even sent Apple an email. Every time I see a platformer that is *clearly* a worse game getting feature in New & Noteworthy, a little part of me dies. Hahah! Don't feel bad about posting it, awp69. The idea is to get as much people as possible to notice the game, and you're helping with it! Thanks! awp69 Well-Known Member Oct 30, 2009 8,249 0 36 Greenville, SC #8 awp69, Mar 17, 2012 I'll definately leave you a review on the AppStore (it'll be under sbelli69). Great game! Hope this promotion does bring more attention to it (so you raise enough money to make Episode 2 ).

CygnetSeven Well-Known Member Feb 6, 2010 7,580 27 48 #10 CygnetSeven, Mar 18, 2012 This is an amazing platformer from an amazing developer. Not your average mechanic, lots of new elements. And humor? It has a butt load of it! A lot of character and I am proud to have it on my phone. Having said that, I truly hope that anyone who grabs it free give the game an honest review in iTunes. Support the indies, give them some love! Sensei Well-Known Member May 30, 2010 82 0 0 Teacher, writer Japan http://www.famicomdojo.tv #11 Sensei, Mar 18, 2012 Sorry, I downloaded it without reading the thread first. I was sold from the first pic. But I will leave a great review. I hope this game takes off. Looks like a lot of love went into it. Exact-Psience Well-Known Member Jan 12, 2012 22,664 2 38 The Work-At-Home Guy Philippines #12 Exact-Psience, Mar 18, 2012 Getting it for sure. Will let friends know of it too. Im sure some of their friends will get it too... Hopefully when it is already priced so that the "free-ness" becomes fruitful hotbarlo Well-Known Member Dec 22, 2011 58 0 0 Game designer São Paulo, Brazil http://walljumpexplained.com/jwerewolf #13 hotbarlo, Mar 18, 2012 Hey, guys! Someone just made a review complaining about the lack of a map and the space between buttons on the default control setup (classic large). THERE IS A MAP. But it only is accessible around the second boss fight. Trex gives it to you as part of the story. And there's no space between buttons in any of the controls. In the classic large setup, since the buttons are graphically small to not get in the way of the action, it may look like there is, but there isn't! I hope you guys are enjoying it! : ) Also, if any of you guys experience a bug with the game freezing on the pause menu, I would love to hear about it. It seems to only affect a few people who upgraded from 1.04, but I'm still looking into it! Oh yeah: if you find any gramatical errors, please, tell me about it! I'm not a native english speaker and I want to get rid of every single broken english in the game. Thanks again! medianotzu Well-Known Member Nov 21, 2009 3,803 9 36 #14 medianotzu, Mar 18, 2012 It's such a shame this game hasn't received the recognition it deserves. Hopefully this promotion will get it some more attention. Really an excellent metroidvania for iOS. AnarKitty Well-Known Member Oct 10, 2010 3,654 0 0 Minneapolis, USA #15 AnarKitty, Mar 18, 2012 Ridiculously great game, and a fantastic piece of work from a devoted dev that deserves to make a bunch of money. awp69 Well-Known Member Oct 30, 2009 8,249 0 36 Greenville, SC #16 awp69, Mar 18, 2012 Submitted my 5-star review. What a blast to play. Love the graphics, story and wicked sense of humor. Haven't finished yet but am already hoping for a sequel! hotbarlo Well-Known Member Dec 22, 2011 58 0 0 Game designer São Paulo, Brazil http://walljumpexplained.com/jwerewolf #17 hotbarlo, Mar 18, 2012 So glad you guys are liking it! : ) The reviews are coming, so I'm thinking about letting it be free for a few days more. I don't want to be one of this devs that regularly put the game for free and then paid again. I think this disrespects the actual buyers. But well, yesterday alone it got 600 downloads, about double the total sales. Pretty cool! Oh, yeah, again: I'm open to suggestions. I want to make the best iOS platformer and so I want to get rid of anything that isn't good enough! Thank you all! awp69 Well-Known Member Oct 30, 2009 8,249 0 36 Greenville, SC #18 awp69, Mar 18, 2012 Awesome! Glad to hear you got a lot of downloads and they help spread the word about this great game....and you get some sales after the free promotion! jumpman475 Well-Known Member Aug 31, 2009 1,899 0 0 Student Ithaca, NY #19 jumpman475, Mar 19, 2012 Just got around to downloading this...must say that this is one of those games that is just deceptively fun. I'm loving every bit so far. Thanks for the sale! 0-FeliX-0 Well-Known Member Sep 25, 2011 3,573 0 0 #20 0-FeliX-0, Mar 19, 2012 Really sad to see this one go free.
