    So it's possible to play with ios 9? I want to try what you say, but i didn't know it was possible. I'm not sure i've understood how to download the "previous" version.

    If you buy it on another device (using your iTunes account though), or even in iTunes on your computer, the app will then show as available for download with in the AppStore on your current device. When you then select download on your current device it will give you a prompt that the app is for iOS 10, but a previous version is available and you can download that. So the option to download a previous version is just a pop up text box. And yeh it seems to be working on iOS 9 on my 6plus but I unfortunately don't have time to play right now, I just loaded it up.

    Unlocked Azazel by accident. Have no idea what I am doing. Lol

    Edit: I have to say. Even though I have never played it before I feel the controls are spot-on. They are simply perfect. Congratulations for the devs!

    Now I am looking forward to drtc and have a great gaming year.

    Already I'm glad I got this. The controls are so much easier than playing on a computer, which is why I rarely play it on the computer. Can someone tell me what the seeds are for?

    Played around a bit on 9.3.3, it works but it's pretty buggy (not a complaint, I took the risk knowing it wasn't supported). Some wonky transitions and doors are invisible in portrait mode. Incredibly smooth frame rate though.

    I'm curious if that's due to the unsupported iOS version or the fact that I'm on an older build. It works okay though, hopefully Tyrone can add iOS 9 support down the line.

    You can share the seed so people can play the same item/enemy round you played, vice versa.

    I'm on ip6+ with iOS 9.1.1 and yeh, portrait mode is bugged. If in portrait then it's like it only shows 3/4 of the room and Isaac can't go all the way down to the bottom. Up the top of the room, a doorway that would be there in landscape is no longer visible in portrait.

    BUT, you and I both are playing on an unsupported iOS version, so maybe that's the trade off -> portrait mode is bugged at least on iOS 9 for now.
    Also in either portrait or landscape, the see through map sort of starts to cover the screen area. Hard to explain, and not sure if that's how it's supposed to be or not. Edit again: if I tap on the default map area in the top right it puts the map back up in the top right and not all over my play area screen like before. But I'd say it's still a little buggy looking around the map. I've never played he game but the map doesn't seem right. Anyway, I'm sure this will get fixed for us iOS 9ers

    When you check the version history, you see that the "initial release" is not the first app version, but the second app version. This usually happens when in soft launch, when a dev publishes a "beta" version in one country prior to global launch. If you do this in an App Store of a remote country in the world, then only a few people download it and try it. Let's say there's an App Store for the South Pole. You publish it there so that only the people you speak with know that it was published there, and they test it.

    Quite possibly, version 1.0 was released to check compatibility with iOS 8 and 9, but it came around buggy and they decided to publish just an iOS10+ version. That's what I believe at least...

    I think you're on point with that. Hopefully they'll have iOS 9 (and 8) ironed out soon.

    How do you compare it to other roguelikes like Wayward Souls?

    I have seen that the game has an upload and download feature for cloud saving but does it also have Game Center support?

    Can anyone explain the difference with touch input 1 and 2? You can set it on options, but I don't quite get what's different.
