Definitely an improvement, especially the ability to move the buttons around and the reduced inertia. The d-pad also feels more accurate.

The one issue that I still needs a fix is the "floating character" glitch: sometimes when you land on a disappearing/appearing platform you end up in this static "falling" mode where you seem to float over the platform. You can still move but you can't jump. It's not game breaking, but it comes across as a bit sloppy.

There's no getting around it: Wawa Land is a tough game by design. I think some folks will always be frustrated by it and blame their difficulties on "control" issues. I personally doubt that the game would be any easier on a physical controller. I also find the challenge very rewarding, even if it involves repeating stages over and over again .

So...how exactly to you move/re-size the buttons?..

@squarezero

Thank you very much for your quick answer! (as always )

I am really happy to see that the new controls works well, because I didn't had the time to do a lot of play tests in two days

For the "floating character", I am aware of this glitch since months, but I haven't found a way to fix it yet... The thing is that it is really difficult to test it, because it's a kind of random thing that happens almost never, and after two months of playing you get one...
I will try to fix it in the 1.03 update, if I can

For the difficulty, I think the game will be much easier with the last fixes ! Worlds like the 1-6 where are "tiny platforms" will not be as hard as before
But yep, I want the game to be challenging

Anyway thanks a lot for your feedbacks I keep playtesting the 1.02 update (GameC... ) and I will release it the next week I think.

For the ones who are looking forward on retina display, I will try to add it with the 1.03 update (release in two/three weeks).
