iPhone games (also Ipod Tooch/iPad games too)

I've played at least 8 hours today.

Swore at it for five minutes this morning, threw it across room aggressively turned it off in fit of rage.

_tiny wings annoying the hell out of me. never again._

This. Lasted all of two minutes with this game, boring.

this is what I thought about game dev story. then I lost three days of my life to it

179,214 points!! x28 multiplier w00t w00t!

Congratulations! You are a master of tiny wings! Now beat the highscore!

I can't get to island 8 :/ hi score 162 k. I think I've reached my potential.

I kept playing until I beat it. You can do it!

Kairosoft's follow-up to Game Dev Story has just been released in western app stores:

$3.99 currently, will review when finished downloading

juuuuuuuust made it to island 6

it's weirdly perfect, this game. each time i play, i get better, but one round is kinda enough to last me a while

I've been enjoying Flick Kick Field Goal for the iPad (/iPhone?), which is essentially a jazzed up version of that game where you throw paper into the wastebasket, but with some fun modes. Good way to waste like one minute when you're waiting for someone or etc.

yeah i've got flick kick soccer and it's hella addictive/great for the bus

so Infinity Blade is fiiiinally on sale, 50% off! Just dl'd last night, will try this out later.

one round is kinda enough to last me a while

i am in awe of your self-control

Infinity Blade sucks.

Really? After trying most of the big names (Assassin's Creed, Mirror's Edge, Chaos Rings, etc) I'd have to say Inf Blade is, IMO, the most well-developed and maybe even best "video game" for iOS

What about the other one? Aralon?

I hate the controls, I hate the setup, and the technology is only impressive since it's on my phone. fuck a Infinity Blade IMO.

(my pick for best proper iOS video game is probably the iOS NBA Jam, which is shockingly well-done)

TOO MUCH TINY WINGS

getting to island 5 with no fever was annoying enough, getting to island 4 with no perfects is going to make me cry

when I decide to do it

tomorrow

how the hell do you get on island 5 with no fever

What about the other one? Aralon?

Too bugged to be playable, even now. I got about 8 hours in then something happened which meant every chest was empty...including the ones that contained quest items. So that was a complete game breaker, and I couldn't face a restart.

how the hell do you get on island 5 with no fever

easy, you fuck up on purpose.

i got to island 8 and suddenly had no desire to play this game again ever.

how the hell do you get on island 5 with no fever

No, the easiest way is to just hug the ground all the way through. Let up on the gravity a bit in the valleys to build up momentum, but then hug the ground as you crest so you get no air.

You can go surprisingly fast this way!

that's actually how i started playing it at the beginning, when i didn't know what fever was or perfect slides etc.

Still cant get to island 8. This is because of a moral failing.

I just keep playing for the pretty colors.

Actually could anyone explain fever mode to me? Just two perfect slides in a row?

three.

Finally. 8th island. Still need 175k though.

Darkness was right on my ass.

been playing this:

Which is an interesting spin on a tower defense game, to have all the Three Kingdoms/Dynasty Warriors guys as cute little cartoons beating the shit out of each other

Dungeon Raid is the best.

just hit 250k/island 9 on tiny wings, will probably never play again as I probably won't be able to come anywhere close to that.

Nice! I will never even get to island 8, I think.

Ok I started playing Qrank and Words with Friends during my lunch breaks, hit me up

Lot of games on sale today if you have an iPad:

http://toucharcade.com/2011/03/11/ipad-game-sales/

Dungeon Hunter 2 99c today only.

Any good?

Pretty much ready to give up on Tiny Wings bcz trying to get 34sec in fever mode is impossible and pointlessly frustrating.

Sword & Sworcery is really nice. Not challenging at all, but a ton of atmosphere. Very short though.

xp i'm glad i'm not the only one for whom this post

I get so pissed off if I can't hold fever through the first 3 islands.

is a complete mystery. (i did eventually crack the 34sec barrier though.)

I finally beat it last week and would like a new $1 addiction, please

I still haven't gotten 175k. Totally given up.

This game lasted all of two hours on my iphone, precisely the sort of time-wasting nonsense I dont need around atm. btw I am posting this from my kindle for lolz.

would like a new $1 addiction, please

Er, Angry Birds Rio is out.

Angry birds has lost me. I just gave up halfway through one of the seasons ones. Not sure why. It was just time.

It could be that you're just not into the genre of flying bird gravity games as much as you used to be

I wish it'd fucking lose me. xp

That's one of Erikson's Stages of Psychosocial Development iirc

xpost to self

Dungeon Raid got a gameplay upgrade. Now featuring character classes and new gameplay elements.
