ok how the heck do i triple backflip

second rider + big hill + maybe a feather?

Quit after I got to level 39 and can't for the life of me fly though an archway with the wing suit.

this was a bit of a constant for a while - just unlocked the final boarder (level 51). very enjoyable and curiously soothing and unfrustrating. right about the challenges being nicely calibrated.

flying through an arch - although that feels like it should be those roof-tile grinds, you can do it by flying 'through' any grind post (that is to say below the bit where you grind but over the ground obv). it's probably easiest it do it with the bunting ones.

double triple flip is killing me rn

Ooo new Kairosoft game, finally.

stuck on escape three elders. lack patience.

You must build a boat, sequel to 1000000000000 out.

wasn't i supposed to get that for free or something for buying the original? thought i read that somewhere

anybody playing and got feedback? I'm inclined to buy immediately.

def wanna get that

I've been having a ball with Knights of Pen and Paper, and I see that a sequel just came out, so I'll be on that too.

also I'm still backflipping with Alto of course

level 33 on alto

level 26 I think? have to break 5 rocks on a single board, not a big deal but haven't quite hit it yet

level 33 on alto as well.

and you must build a boat is somehow even more addicting than 10000000000000000

aw fuck, going in

i can't stop! heeaeeeeelp

but seriously, fuck that trap that freezes you, that is the worst.

GOTY so far. My boat is huge.

are you (or anyone here) playing it ON IPHONE? I played 10000000000000000 ON IPAD and it ruled obv but I'm wondering how it would work on phone

i'm playing it on iphone. it's fine, i have no complaints

same

Phone for me.

ROCK. will buy

how long does
YOU
MUST
BUILD
A
BOAT
go on for? I am loving it (a bit too much) but enjoyed that finite structure for 100000000 - 'you will be addicted for this comparatively brief length of time, but you will be completely addicted'. YMBAB feels like it might go on for ages.

I feel the opposite! I'm afraid I'm close to the end. I don't want it to end.

there's only one map. It felt too short to me almost. There were only like a couple quests I had to sink more than a couple runs into.

boat is great.

blades of brim is good too -- i sort of thought i was finally done with auto-runners and this has enough to keep it interesting

I finished my boat. Sadness. Too short.

You people all must just live on the toilet to have opinions about so many iOS games.

Train ride.

i do, for real

pixel dungeon, btw

xpost man i wish my train had a toilet

Peggle Blast is SO INFURIATINGLY FREEMIUM, like just let me pay $4 for an entire really solid fucking game! Stop designing impossibly difficult levels and then making me wait 30 minutes between lives w/ the option of spending IRL money on more! This is fucking gross.

I've been digging on Lines. Not very challenging, but mellow and aesthetically-pleasing.

iPhone games help quiet life's microrages

iphone games are good for yr kegels

within the last 24 hours the team behindPac-Man C.E has enabled MFI pads on iOS, which is a great way to play it with butan if you don't have and a Vita and want to play this game on the go (in the "lounging in your hotel room wherever" context or the "on the flight to wherever" context, not in the "on the bus to work" context) this is probably now your best bet. here's an article w/ more info:

https://www.afterpad.com/pac-man-championship-edition-dx-released-with-mfi-controller-support

seriously, the Hori MFi gamepad is worth it just for this game; it is also worth it for Oceanhorn and Bastion and Wayward Sword and Sonic CD and Traps & Gemstones natively supporting it as well. all the http://www.builds.io 3mu1a+0rZ (which somehow get signed and are therefore playable on all firmware versions without jailbreaking) all support MFi too if that is relevant to your interests. it's a really nice pad (despite all outward appearances) and it seriously just works, buy it for yourself next time you need to get yourself a gift or whatever.

I'm babbling now, time for bed

I'd consider it for like 20 but $80 is just like gotdamn! I've just been playing emus on my Nexus 7 and the touch screen controls are surprisingly great, at least for what I'm playing (p much just RPGs, who can say when I try to play, like, DKC at some point)

to anyone out there with an iPad Mini looking for a good physical-button controller setup, I cannot endorse the Gamevice vigorously enough; it's essentially an MFi enclosure that you snap your iPad into which turns it into a Wii U Gamepad minus the console. the ergonomics are phenomenal for laying in bed and playing stuff (I would LOVE to be able to use the triggers to flip between pages in a Kindle book or Instapaper article, or the controls to scroll up and down a long webpage, so that I don't have to paw at the screen as much), and the d-pad & face buttons feel JUST right for 3mulat0rz. I really don't ever want to take my Mini out of this thing; I may actually use it as an excuse to upgrade to a new Air as my new main tablet. the Horipad I posted about a while back is a better choice if you're looking for a traditional standalone controller, but at this point I suspect that I'll only ever use it to play games on an iPad when I'm on the road in the future.

it also gives me another reason to beg 2K Games to make Sid Meier's Pirates a lot more playable just by exploiting existing assets to add MFi support - I can absolutely lose myself in this game when I play it with physical controls (i.e. the PSP or 360 versions), but find touch controls to interfere with my ability to just enjoy it. as far as I know, the only way to play Pirates with butan available anymore is on the PSP version which is only available on the Euro store for some reason, so I'm dying for this to happen. (you CAN play it using the builds.io PSP emulator, although it runs really janky.)

in other news, I've been playing a bunch of Wayward Sword lately and like it a bunch; it feels like a less obtuse La-Mulana (or perhaps a less punishing Spelunky).

That's cool, I really would like to try something like that but I'm not sure what I would play. I end up playing board games and puzzles on iPad because they're the only things that really suit the interface. I don't really game on iPhone, even the 6 is too small to enjoy a game (also constant notifications, from which my iPad is firewalled).

Need something new.

And no freemium shit. Fucking puzzle craft 2, disappointed in you.

Pac-Man 256 is Crossy Road but for Pac-Man, superficially freemium but you can pay a reasonable $7.99 to just turn it into a normal game

I think Infinity Blade 3 is free at the moment? It was a couple of days ago, at least.

Yes, IB3 is free atm.

I dl'ed the new free star wars rpg. It's probably terrible.

I spend way too much time on crap like pixel people. I need to go back and finish Sorcery! 3 and Bastion.

80 Days is mandatory btw.

What's a reliable reviews site besides Touch Arcade? Because I am finding them kind of not reliable.
