Especially the way the main character doesn't have long white hair. That's the only hairstyle that looks good on men. Wait am I being sarcastic? I kinda got mixed up halfway through writing that. Exact-Psience Well-Known Member Jan 12, 2012 22,664 2 38 The Work-At-Home Guy Philippines #3 Exact-Psience, Jul 2, 2013 Been waiting for this, i guess i wont pass up on the soft launch and pull up the old CA account. C.Hannum Well-Known Member Feb 13, 2011 2,512 0 36 New York State #4 C.Hannum, Jul 2, 2013 Oh yay, another game from Chillingo that can't be officially installed on *any* touch, even the 5G that outclasses many of the devices it is allowed to run on. Sanuku Well-Known Member Jun 14, 2009 11,954 4 38 Austria http://www.touchgameplay.com #5 Sanuku, Jul 2, 2013 I really enjoy it so far more then I could think of. Besides the cool presentation and atmosphere it does feel already in it`s current form very polished and the Game does run very stable. What I totally don`t understand is why the Game doesn`t support the iPod Touch 5 as some have already mentioning. I hope that the Folks over at Ninja Theory will fix that as soon as possible since the Game is running on Unity3D and there is absolutly no reason why the Game shouldn`t run on the 5th Gen. of the iPod Touch at all! squabs Well-Known Member Nov 3, 2012 317 1 18 #6 squabs, Jul 2, 2013 Really? Does it error out saying missing gyroscope or something? If it works on iPhone 4s it will work on touch 5, hardware wise oooooomonkey Well-Known Member Jan 15, 2011 6,307 0 0 Forge World #7 oooooomonkey, Jul 2, 2013 It looks and plays good but I already deleted it as I don't like the freemium energy thing where you can only play 5 fights and then have to wait for it to refil or use gold to speed it up. Yet another reason to hope freemium dies a horrible painful slow and mutilating death some time soon italodance Well-Known Member Aug 19, 2009 1,527 0 36 electrical Tehran-Iran #8 italodance, Jul 2, 2013 noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Its a tap tap gameeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee whyyyyyyyyy i wont get and even pay for IAP's L.Lawliet Well-Known Member Jun 28, 2011 6,391 398 83 #9 L.Lawliet, Jul 2, 2013 Looked cool but that freemium thing is bogus. Plus it won't run on my ipod touch lol... dexter77 Well-Known Member Jan 15, 2011 389 0 0 #10 dexter77, Jul 2, 2013 Looks insane but why a soft launch for a freakin' awesome game like this?? i want it now!!! dexter77 Well-Known Member Jan 15, 2011 389 0 0 #11 dexter77, Jul 2, 2013 Damn....no way, i'm with you, freemium must die!! ..but i'll give it a try in any case when available, i love too much the vindicator's theme... sirrozha Well-Known Member Dec 8, 2010 59 0 0 #12 sirrozha, Jul 2, 2013 Its a shitload of in-apps, the balance is broken, the levels are small to make you buy more power ups. Mysticpete Well-Known Member Nov 26, 2012 365 0 0 #13 Mysticpete, Jul 2, 2013 no ipod touch support? Why??? why cant this game be played on ipod touch..i have the 4G ipod touch and was hoping to play it when it gets released..plz plz add ipod touch support before worldwide release of game! Exact-Psience Well-Known Member Jan 12, 2012 22,664 2 38 The Work-At-Home Guy Philippines #14 Exact-Psience, Jul 2, 2013 Ok so... From what i see basically, it's a simplified Infinity Blade concept, but more similar to Injustice iOS in setup (but more indepth than Injustice). Tap on the left to punch. Multiple taps = combo. Swipes to kick: Swipe on the left, towards the left = mid kick. Swipe angling up towards the left = high kick. And swiping diagonally down towards the left = low kick. Swipe up = Jump. Swipe down = crouch, which also counts as a dodge for high attacks. You can perform all attack types while either jumping or crouching which makes controlling the character a breeze. Swap the word RIGHT to the word LEFT and you have the controls on the opposite direction. This is basically on-rails though. Your character stands in the middle of a room, with enemies at each side. After a wave of enemies (clearing the room is a wave), there is an arrow you need to tap to get to the next area, on-rails style. Controls are nice and fluid. Animations are pretty smooth. Visuals style is nice, but there are visual glitches with the costumes. You can replay any room, floor, or whatever to increase your money to grind for upgrades and items. The premium currency is earned by levelling up your character, or by completing a building/area. Overall a nice game, but im still a little worried about the freemiumness of it. oooooomonkey Well-Known Member Jan 15, 2011 6,307 0 0 Forge World #15 oooooomonkey, Jul 2, 2013 On top of all the IAPs I wasn't to fond of the strict timer for the levels, it forces you to be fast as you can rather than doing cool fight scenes. Mysticpete Well-Known Member Nov 26, 2012 365 0 0 #16 Mysticpete, Jul 2, 2013 hoping it will be ipod 4G compatible before worldwide release! Jazzpha Well-Known Member Apr 26, 2012 776 16 18 #17 Jazzpha, Jul 2, 2013 Here's hoping the soft-launch feedback will get the devs to modify the IAP structure before launch. My guess is they're also trying to figure out what the general attitude is toward as aggressive an IAP scheme as they think they can pull off, and then they'll scale it back accordingly before the main launch. And if there're timers, I'm also hoping there'll be some kind of option to remove them in some way. Guess we'll see soon enough, though. MrMojoRisin Well-Known Member Jul 27, 2012 1,183 0 0 #18 MrMojoRisin, Jul 2, 2013 This looks like Kung Fu Master meets Die Hard.
