    I hope they use customizable virtual controls as well, and leave that tilt BS as an alternate control scheme.

    Just tried out the online version. Have to admit that this is pretty sweet. Controls feel very smooth. Can't wait for this game

    The online game is good, in fact so good that changed my mind from maybe to insta-buy

    Dev interview.
    http://theplayvault.com/wp/2011/07/12/tpv-podcast-fenix-fire-interview/

    - Another husband and wife team.
    - They originally used tilt controls *shudder* but then opted for virtual controls that disappear when unused.
    - They deliberately added the wall jump function to let players save themselves when falling off ledges (called that one)
    - Consider their game to be a premium game. Game will be $5. Not sure about any introductory sale.
    - Will be out in a month

    I hate when applications don't specify the exact number. What's the point in saying "over blank # of levels" when you can just state the exact number.

    Nothing against the dev of Roboto specifically, but in general.
