    Initial imps with MFi controls... It's fantastic. At first i thought it was weird that the directional buttons werent utilized for movement, until i figured out the up button is used to talk, and everything became clear.

    I really wish the menus get MFi support too, but this is already highly playable now. The only real downside is when opening maps. You'd need to touch the screen for that.

    Hey Exact, glad you are liking it so far.

    I am planning on making all the menus and map supported by the controller in the future, I am just not sure when I'll have time to get it all working. I thought I'd release the in-game support as soon as I could so that you guys could enjoy it sooner! :)

    I probably should have mentioned in the update that the D-Pad UP is the interact button, good catch!

    As for the iPhone version, I am pretty sure Apple would not allow me to release a game that requires an MFi controller and I think there are too many buttons on screen to be playable on the iPhone.

    Thanks so much for the MFI support! I think I might start a new game just for this! :) Since we don't need on screen controls when using a controller, any way you could remove the buttons and make the game full screen or at least larger? That would be my ultimate fantasy :D

    Thanks for the update and for making it happen. I'd actually bought the steam Mac version while I was waiting but look forward to playing this baby on the go.

    Why not try just sticking the game on an iPhone and have people beta test it for you over TestFlight? There's no loss in that, right? If everyone finds it unplayable, forget it.

    I think it would fly on a 6+ or a 6s+.

    I just bought it and I don't even have an iPad to play it. Just going to hope it goes universal or Apple TV.

    Please

    Excellent idea, where do i sign in for that beta, please?

    I bought this brilliant game on release day, because i had an ipad mini back then. Now both are gone :(
    Never finished it...but one can have a little dream.

    Mfi/virtual control issues

    Love this game. But I have two issues.

    1st is that with Mfi controller, the y button will not fire the auto laser. It works great for the shotgun, but will not work with the auto laser.

    2nd, the mech suit level on the way to the electrobot, the mech suit does not jumpsuit enough to get through the level. It can't reach higher platforms.

    Would love a fix. Thanks.
