Wow. I am greatly impressed by this one. The controls are pixel perfect. Well... Square perfect to be exact, and i am playing on the 4S right now. Never have I missed a square i want to move into, and my swipes have been registering flawlessly. Graphics are great, and remins me a bit of Polara for the character, and a bit of God of Blades for the backgrounds, bot of which are runners as opposed to this stealth puzzler.

Think classic Pac-man with a bit more style and great atmosphere. Definitely something i'd spend time on. Only thing im scared of is that the game might run out of mechanics rather than the basic ones from the first 2 stages i've played. Will play more and give more specifics when i get deeper into the game.

So impressed with this. I was lucky enough to nab the first code offered on Twitter a whopping 6 hours ago (thanks again ) and only got to try the game right now, but man, I don't know what it is....whether it's the music, the soothing visuals or just how responsive the game is (or maybe a combination of them all)...it just feels good to play, you know? Like...it tickles my senses in the best way possible.

Off to play some more...sorry guys.

Oh, and of course...no IAPs.

Just about to buy but want to check on controls as someone mentioned swipe which I can't stand!

I thought it was just 'touch' to move to a square? When do you swipe?

You don't swipe. Don't know what EP was on about.

Casket seal of approval?

Played the first three levels and so far it's fantastic. The graphics and lighting are equal to games like Gene Effect, which set a pretty high bar for me (at least as far as games playable on my 3GS). And the music complements the atmosphere. Speaking of which, even with the graphical quality, it runs great on my device.

Seems like each level introduces something new so I'm not concerned with repetitive gameplay. Right now I'm looking forward to seeing how it continues to progress. Touch controls also work great.

Amazing to see what a dev can do in such a small file size.
