    That is a nice take on Star Guard!

    Great graphics. What are the controls like? What's with all the characters appearing at once? Seems manic

    @NinthNinja - You're right! - Star Guard gfx style was my inspiration ;) Great game btw. But I wanted something "bigger"

    @psj3809 - On-screen controls, like other iOS platformers. Those characters appears only on replay, after finished level. What can I say is that replays visible on teaser, are recorded entirely on device - so controls works well I think ;)

    The game looks very fun. Its nice to see the multi-character game mechanic used in grim jogger used in another context (or perhaps it existed even before). There's something quite appealing about this concept :D

    Whoa, this is epic. Definitely a worthy competitor for Grim Joggers.

    Well, there is some misunderstandig I think ;) "Ghost" players are only on replays, showing every try before. You're not control "group" of them... More like Super Meat Boy than Grim Joggers.

    But game is nice after all I think ;)

    I think about iPad version as well ! But iPhone first... What can I promise for sure - iPad version will be just an update to Universal App - so don't worry to pay twice for the same game.

    I also think about adding completely different set of levels on iPad - to better cover its bigger screen... But for all of this I need one thing - an iPad :D If game sales will be strong ( so I could easily buy one ;) ), I can assure all of you, that iPad version will come as well!

    About pricing - don't know yet, but it won't be high, and certainly with a release "initial" low price ;)

    Well, I'm still thinking about final price, but initial price will be just 0.99$ ;) But not for long!

    Release date ? 28 or 29 of September...

    I'll try to post a gameplay video ( by camera for now... ) tomorrow...
    Very nice to see your enthusiasm :D
