Nice! Reminds me of retro games...

I just downloaded and tried it on my LG Optimus One...
It's quite satisfying actually, feels like an Action RPG, although its just a platforming game.

However, its pretty punishing at times -- kinda reminds me of Demon's Souls!!

And my phone has a semi-multitouch screen, so... it gets really hard to control, even with the accelerometer..

Anyway..
Thanks for a great game!

P.S. Gave you a 5-star rating on the Android Market

Thanks for the feedback and the rating

My only complaint is that it is pretty hard to see whats coming at you. The overlay of the attack/jump buttons are on the same level as the ground. I see that you can see through them, but I felt that wasn't enough.

I found myself hitting enemies without even knowing they were there, so I found myself moving a little forward and stopping, moving some more and stopping. Which I don't think is how you intended to have the game played.

I would suggest finding a way to handle this, maybe a different layout on the screen, right now it seems the buttons make up 30%+ of my screen(I have a G2). I notice some games make the buttons completely invisible after a time, reasoning being is that you learn where to press the screen. (although those games usually have less buttons then you do).

Overall it was a pretty smooth game, nice graphics and animations. Good job!

Thanks for your feedback. I'll solve this problem in the coming update.

Pretty frustrating game haha.

Could there be checkpoints in the game?

And sometimes when you get hurt and you're flashing, pressing the jump button doesn't execute the jump. I've died a couple of times to this.

Can I ask what game engine are you using?

Hey thanks for your feedback. I have been asked to keep checkpoints by another user too. I'll try to do something about that. I did not notice the jumping while flashing issue before. I'll definitely look into that. Thanks for your feedback. Can you please leave a rating on the market if possible?

May I also know what phone you played the game on?

Hey. This is my own custom engine/framework

-I gave the game 4 stars its not bad for a free game, but the controls are kinda in the way while playing. It ran flawless on my glacier.

Thanks. Do you think that the in-game buttons are unnecessarily big on your phone? Or is it just that the layout gets in the way?

Right now the buttons scale along with everything else in game based on the size of the device's display. So on a tablet it would be really blown up and kind of far apart I guess.

I am thinking of keeping it a standard size irrespective of the device's display size. In other words, the in game buttons would be the same size on a huge screen and a small screen.
