    Looks outstanding, but I was concerned about the controls, and Gabrien confirmed my suspicions, unfortunately. Will get it none-of-the-less and try to deal with it. If it's that bad maybe the dev will implement different controls for it. Who knows? Worst thing to happen to me would be just freeing up that space again.

    Hi guys, we’ve been working on implementing an option in the settings for those that wanted to try more of a 1 to 1 control scheme. Unfortunately in testing, the new control scheme caused additional problems with our character movement and the actual design of our levels.

    Our character was designed to have a bit of a glide in order to simulate more of a flying sensation. We truly appreciate all of the community feedback and sincerely want to provide the best experience for everyone. We plan on providing content updates for you guys in the future, and take all of your comments very seriously.

    Thanks guys,
    Robert

    I think it's worth noting that there are sensitivity sliders in the options menu (for each of the modes). That said, I'm gonna stay out of the control discussion...the last thing we need is another Sine Mora thread.

    If 1:1 is not an option, I think you need to increase the sensitivity of slower swipes. Or decrease the dead zone. Or both. I understand what you were aiming for, I just think it needs some tweaking.

    This looks great. Any chance of making it universal?

    Think talks about the control scheme are fine as long as people accept others have different views

    I agree with ones who don't like the controls, it's hard for me to be precise. But i like the game, it's fresh, the atmosphere is great, the music too... I'll play again, maybe it need a bit more time to masterize the controls.

    Great game, thanks!

    Would love to play, but it crashes on my iPad mini. Anyone else having such problems? :/
     
  12. Wow, this game looks amazing, but hearing all the feedback on here about the controls worries me a little. Hmmm... Would love to hear some further comments from people that have the game, do you think we all should buy?

    Update is out and the controls are now spot on. The game's status may now be safely adjusted from "inexplicably neglected" to "criminally ignored".

    I usually dont dig arcade games...but the graphics on this are top notch (UDK again, folks) and the gameplay is really adictive. Sure, theres some probrlem with the controls, but you can get used to. Thumbs up!
    Cheers
     
  17. Can I ask, about the controls, what has changed? It seems to have gone from a controls need help to a recommended buy, but what has changed?

    Well, basically, all the negative points I made with regard to controls previously, no longer apply.
