Is this a direct screenshot? If so I don't think I'll double dip, looks incredibly blurry.

[Sidzed2]

Hi all, I just saved between chapters (when prompted) and quit. When I restart the game, it puts me back halfway through the chapter I just completed - anyone gave an idea why I've lost so much progress???

[CambriaRising]

I urge everyone who did not get this on DS to pick it up. It is a steal for $10 and keeps you guessing until the very end.

Also, do not use a walkthrough, it makes it so much better.

[Wrestlemania]

Does anyone actually have save sync working? I don't want to play about with it too much just in case I lose my progress

Did you see the "Tap to resume" screen when you restarted it? If so try selecting quit from the menu and select continue from the main menu.
This happened to me once before where the auto-save that is in place for if you close the app and need to resume it got behind when I actually saved, but once I actually selected continue from the main menu it brought me back to where I saved.

Yeah, which button I need to select to sync progress to iCloud? Thanks.

Just download it yourself, it's free. The graphics are crisp and clean

[Mr Touchdown]

I just finished the original DS version

What exact problem did some people have with the final sequences? Game was amazing throughout. Ending made me want to crawl into a ball of emotion, like most Shu Takumi games seem to.

[Crub]

Really sad they're using a blurry filter for the graphics on units with Retina display. Would have looked so much better if they simply scaled the graphics.

[StarCreator]

Found a graphics glitch in Chapter 7, after the first Fate Change - a foreground sprite doesn't get rendered completely. Wonder if this happens in the DS version?

Presenting as a link for those who haven't gotten that far and don't wanna see yet.

That didn't happen to me in either the DS version or this version. I wonder what caused it.

It has to be after the first Fate Change. The outline is from when after the crash, the goons are hiding under the table. When you don't trigger the fate change, they obscure that portion of the trunk when they hide. If you trigger the first fate change but NOT the second, the goons have relocated to the other table and are hiding there instead.

Out of sheer curiosity - can someone screenshot what the journal looks like on iPhone? It's one of the few places where the game actually seems optimized for iPad and I'm wondering how they did the interface on smaller screens.

[jokingbird]

I am chapter 8, but someone may have spoiled the game for me. This might be a spoiler so please do not read unless you have finished the game:

Are you a cat? And is the other ghost a dog?

Here you go:


And while I'm posting screenshots, I guess Sissel gets a new ghost power in this version that wasn't in the DS version:

He has the ability to go on Twitter whenever he wants despite being dead.

[Emitan]

I'm assuming when people say "the dance" they mean Bailey's Panic Dance?

It's... amazing.

I hope whoever spoiled it for you has life insurance. Not going to confirm nor deny what he said for your sake though.

Thanks, looks like it's exactly the same. Was thinking it would be too small to read but guess not!

And yeah, I had a laugh at the placement of the Twitter button. Obviously I want to post on Twitter instead of rewinding time. Sissel obviously has his priorities straight.

[LiK]

What does the Twitter functionality do? I haven't used it because I don't want to accidentally send out spoilers or something.

[StarCreator]

Pretty much exactly what you'd expect. You can write a message to post on your Twitter account. If you use it in-game, it pre-fills the text entry box with some nonsensical notation that's supposed to indicate your position in the game.

Since the game doesn't target iOS 5 it uses a third party library for its Twitter functions, the credits for which take up 1/4 of the Help section (Matt Gemmell, wherever you are, we hardly knew ye). It also requires you to enter your Twitter username and password on first use each time you start the app.

It was an off handed comment, but I cannot tell if they were messing with me. It just seems too unlikely and would ruin how I have been feeling about the story if true.

I came here just to see if anybody had this issue.
I installed the game on iPhone and iPad but they don't sync, tried every option many times

[Nori Chan]

Why are all the achievements, 4, 44 and some involve doing 444 of something?

just curious

[Emitan]

4 has something to do with death in Asia. It's kind of like the number 13 being unlucky here.

[the chris]

4 has something to do with death in Asia. It's kind of like the number 13 being unlucky here.

The number four is pronounced the same as death in Japanese, the characters used for writing it is different though.

[Tain]

I didn't realize this was out.

currently bugging the hell out of my ipad-owning GF to get this.

[StarCreator]

Also, just noticed all the achievements are worth either 4 or 44 points. 4, of course, can be read "shi", or death. pfffffffft

This is, of course, also probably the whole reason why the rewind time is 4 minutes in the first place. gdi japan

Also, the total value of all achievements is 444. I hope there isn't anything else because Japanese number puns get old pretty fast

[Riposte]

hahaha, that's amusing to me. Almost tasteless in terms of being a blatant addition, but funny.

I am going to inaugurate my iPhone 4 with this!

Btw how does it run on iOS5 on the iPhone 4?

Fine. Haven't noticed any issues on my phone besides it being a bit laggy when you resume it for a few seconds and the volume bugs out if you get a notification while playing.

[StarCreator]

What's annoying is, the lagginess is for the most part programmed in. The game has no trouble rendering at 60+ fps for certain sequences, yet most animations in the game are capped to around 15-20.

However, I have noticed that, on occasion, the game starts stuttering seemingly without explanation after it's been running for a long time. Force closing it then restarting it seems to make it run normally again if this happens.

[Emitan]

The lagginess I'm talking about is when you resume it after multitasking the game stutters until the "Welcome back" message from Gamecenter appears.

[StarCreator]

Ah... on an iPad 2 there isn't really much of an issue if I multitask (note I don't use the multitasking gestures since they don't play nice with jubeat) - I get presented with a "tap here to return to the game" screen and everything's normal from there on out.

[Fuu]

The lagginess I'm talking about is when you resume it after multitasking the game stutters until the "Welcome back" message from Gamecenter appears.

Unfortunately this seems to affect pretty much all iOS games with GC support (iPhone 4 here), so much that I actually have to take the stuttering in consideration when I resume action games like Super Crate Box.

[rbanke]

What happens with the IAP if i buy it on my iPhone, then later redownload on my wife's iPhone? The apple IAP faq says that some in-app purchases are redownloadable and some aren't, but I didn't see a way to determine which are and which are not redownloadable.

What's up with the saving system? I beat chapter 1 and loading the auto save took me back to the mid point the chapter. I don't understand how the save system works. Do I have to reach a checkpoint before I stop playing in order to avoid replaying an entire section again?

As near as anyone can tell, the autosave is kinda busted. Just skip the prompt and press Continue instead.

Is it safe to stop playing whenever I feel like it and resume from that exact spot when I decide to jump back in? I only saw the save option at the end of the chapter, it would be great if I can save anytime.

You can save at any time by clicking the book icon in the game.

Better on iPad or iPhone?

[Trojita]

I've been enjoying it so far. I think I'm on chapter 5.

Missile's the best!

[LiK]

iPad. nice big screen is more comfortable to travel around and enjoy the visuals as well.

[Papercuts]

Was slowly going through this game an episode a night, absolutely amazing ending. I feel bad for waiting so long to play it now.

Everybody buy this.

[Pagusas]

yup

You guys made this seem awesome, when it was overall nothing special or interesting. Sad :(

[nyong]

This might just be the best game I've played this generation. Mind-blowingly good stuff. Anyone who's holding out, just download the first few chapters FREE OF CHARGE and try it out.

Are you insane?

[Neuromancer]

Just got the game tonight and it's kind of awesome

[Papercuts]

I think his reply was specifically to Bailey's dance, not the game itself.

Which is still insane, but still.
