Its weird I didn't notice this thread earlier. I had this in my watch list since the TA Plays video. It looks like good fun and the download size is tiny. defred34 Well-Known Member Aug 27, 2012 1,408 0 0 Earth #3 defred34, Dec 30, 2012 Recommended game! Brilliant no-frills racer/platformer, with short and brisk levels. Nice ambiance with the space theme + aural music. Andy C83 Well-Known Member Oct 20, 2010 3,627 20 38 Over the Rainbow #4 Andy C83, Dec 30, 2012 This game is FANTASTIC. It was on my list for my top 10 of the year, and is recommended to all. Great controls, great level design. The game gets progressively difficult. There's a polarity switching mechanic for score chasers. The game was described as Super Monkey Ball meets F-Zero, and it really is. No IAP.

Exact-Psience Well-Known Member Jan 12, 2012 22,664 2 38 The Work-At-Home Guy Philippines #7 Exact-Psience, Dec 30, 2012 One of the best runner/platformer on the iOS, and definitely worth the original price. jar0d Well-Known Member Jan 4, 2010 530 0 16 Europe #8 jar0d, Dec 30, 2012 His is great. Thank you very much. Was waiting for this sale. Much appreciated. Pman Well-Known Member May 2, 2010 495 0 0 Texas #9 Pman, Dec 30, 2012 Seems like a deal slipped through the cracks. I'm glad I saw this. And $.99 bites the dust. Jazzpha Well-Known Member Apr 26, 2012 776 16 18 #10 Jazzpha, Dec 30, 2012 Quick question: how exactly does this game play out? I've heard it called a runner, racer and platformer simultaneously, but how do those styles all blend together? I'm really interested in taking the leap, just curious. Thanks in advance! defred34 Well-Known Member Aug 27, 2012 1,408 0 0 Earth #11 defred34, Dec 30, 2012 Basically, you have levels to complete. It has got a jumping-on-platforms element, which is ever present in platformers. There's also a color polarity change that adds a little something to the game. Its a runner in the sense it auto-moves. You just control the direction and jumps of the spaceship. It is a racer in the sense you're controlling an extraterrestrial vehicle, and you can aim for the fastest time to complete a level if that floats your boat! Hope this helps. If you're curious, just get in already. No IAPs make this a worthy purchase for a buck! ninjackid Well-Known Member May 27, 2010 9,380 2 38 #12 ninjackid, Dec 30, 2012 Had me at no IAP! Downloading..
