Anyone able to suggest any games that are either infinitely better on iPad, or are iPad-only? I have a third-gen I want to get to know better

Plague is much better on iPad because the map is super easy to read. It's the game where you make your own disease, name it, give it symptoms, and try to wipe out the world.

 

[soldat7]

Also Blazing Stars is on iOS-

Anyone got it? Is it a good port of the NG original?

It's great. Be sure to turn off the video filtering for all pixel glory. And pick up Metal Slug 3. DotEmu rocks.

 

[Ministration]

Ravenmark, Arc Squadron, TikTok games (Flipkick etc), Helium Boy, uh.... Let me remember more... uh... there's more.

Lemme add Gunman Clive to that list. My favourite GAF-made game so far (but then I haven't played Arc Squadron... gotta change that soon).

Neat...but Metal Slug is a game best played with another player IMO.

 

[Tizoc]

Booooooo SNK Playmore games not available in my region =(

Ravenmark, Arc Squadron, TikTok games (Flipkick etc), Helium Boy, uh.... Let me remember more... uh... there's more.

Thanks added those to my wishlist, while I dled the free/demo versions to try them out =)

My game "Strange Matter" came out recently. PM me if you'd like a code, I think I have a few left.

Hmm what's the genre of that game? Images make it look like a puzzler.

EDIT: Updated to iTunes 11, but how do I delete apps I no longer want?

 

[jon bones]

i love rayman origins so i bought the iphone game when it dropped.

it's gorgeous and fun, but i have 1 last red gem to earn (the last level.)

shit is tough, i don't think i would have beat all the stages in the 360 version if it weren't for co-op with my roommate.

 

[Fusebox]

Been hearing mixed things about some gold balance update for knights of pen paper.

I'll throw it in the OT if people here confirm its ok.

I started playing after that update and I've finished the game without making any IAP. Definitely add it to the OT, it's probably in my top 10 best iOS games of all time.

PikPok? Flick Kick?

Didn't realise Arc Squadron was made by a GAFfer.

I meant you guys, yes! sorry. That was awful :lol

Also damn I knew I forgot something, Gunman Clive for sure.

 

[Fusebox]

TikTok with Flipkick, lmfao!

RE: Strange Matter

It's definitely primarily an action, tilting & shooting game. If you go for high scores you might consider it a bit of puzzler because you need to find the path that allows you to keep your combo string going. But it's mainly an action game.

 

[Awesome Animals]

I find that art so hard to look at for more than a couple of minutes

Oh, I agree I did actually donate to it because it didn't appear to be something I would enjoy but I want to at least help and promote it because I did like Hard Lines and I always want to see more developers that are passionate.

 

[Bitmap Frogs]

Been playing some more Knights of Pen and Paper... I think it is my favourite game in its genre. And it oozes atmosphere too!

 

[chickdigger802]

K will check pen paper out. Just realized its only 2 bucks. Thought it was more.

If you enjoy infinybattlers like battleheart or dungeon raid, well you are in for a treat.

I thought battleheart was boring as hell, while dungeon raid was incredibly fun and addictive. Should I buy this? lol

It's nothing like Battleheart or Dungeon Raid. And yes buy it.

 

[Bitmap Frogs]

By the way, how's 1000000? Looks like a Dungeon Raid kind of thing from the App Store description.

 

[Fusebox]

10000000 is excellent, I far prefer it over Dungeon Raid, definitely worth checking out.

Nimblebit's new game announced!

Excite.

 

[Awesome Animals]

They're trying to end my existence in the real world aren't they.

 

[Goli]

...Those sprites look really ugly to me. I wish they'd stuck with TT/PP's art style.

 

[Jackben]

The faces are creepy. But I am interested more in the gameplay. Anyone given it a spin yet?

 

[chickdigger802]

Nimblebit's new game announced!

Will try it. Pp was a miss though IMO. As soon as you can fly across the world, you feel done.

 

[Domino Theory]

Hey dudes, I have codes for Sonic 4 Episode 2 on iOS so just PM me if you want a code.

 

[Awesome Animals]

It was an ambitious game where they tried to add something a little more to the Tiny Tower style game. Unfortunately after the first week I lost interest as well. And my gf (who I use to gauge how addicting a game is) lost interest soon after. She played Tiny Tower for over a year, and consumes the Kariosoft games like its a kg of cocaine.

Instabuy! Any more info? Where did they announce? Don't see anything on their twitter.

What's Tiny Tower? Also when you say PP are you talking about Knights of Pen and Paper? Also I don't know how your GF can play more than one Kairosoft game. I put like 40 hours into game dev story and unlocked all the achievements and I was burnt the fuck out. Once you play one Kairosoft you've played them all, and the quality never exceeds Game Dev.

 

[Awesome Animals]

@Jackben, PP is Pocket Planes. And I don't feel the addiction to the Kariosoft games nearly as much as most. Played the hell out of Game Dev and a few others, but not all of them. I do own them all though.

I haven't found any info either. Are we sure that is a Nimblebit game?

 

[bob page]

One of the devs posted it on the SA forums- I haven't seen any other info yet.

 

[MikeE21286]

Picked up a rhythm game called Cytus for $1.99 completely on a whim yesterday using the genius function in the App Store.

Been having lots of fun with it. Seems like a somewhat poor mans DJ Max game

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

Damn. I've gotten pretty hooked to Happy Street, anyone else playing it?

If so add me in GC: SgtPepper[GAF]

 

[Awesome Animals]

Of course. I don't follow they're iOS thread. Off to SA!

 

[Kraftwerk]

Just got an iPhone 5 ( my first iOS device )

Any games similar to the DJ Max portable series on the vita for iOS?

OMG Yesssssss!

I'll give it a whirl once I'm done with Pen and Paper then.

Thanks.

 

[Like the hat?]

Thinking of picking up pen and paper RPG. Does it play on iPod touch or only ipad?

 

[Fusebox]

Works just as well on either device.

 

[PFD]

Rayman Jungle is back on freemyapps. It's worth noting that if you have multiple idevices (iPhone/ipad in my case) you can get credit on each device for the same purchase. So it essentially gave me 640 credits.

I dont want to lose my save


Actually I guess it uses iCloud

Yeah, it uses iCloud. I deleted it and it was fine when I reinstalled it.

Oh, and thanks to everyone who added me on GC!

 

[Mrbob]

Damn, King of Dragon Pass sale over? Just checked and it's $9.99 now. Guess I wait.

Also, do Itunes gift cards not stack? I had 2.45 in credit, and I put in a 15 dollar Itunes gift card and it says my account now has 15 in credit? Apple is trash, give me $2.45 back you theives.

Huh, mine stacks. That wouldn't make sense if it didn't

That should not happen. Contact Apple ASAP if you believe your credit disappeared.

Do you have multiple itunes accounts? Maybe you added the card to a different account?

Sell me on it in a few sentences (and ill put it in the OT!)

 

[xJavonta]

So I'm getting even better at Zookeeper Battle. It released on Android (my iPhone is in the mail right now) and I've been annihilating people in it. I'm enjoying it now lol

 

[Wario64]

Super Mole Escape is free right now. Not sure how good it is but it's an Adult Swim game, so it must be fun?

[SnakeXs]

Bummer that Walking Dead: Assault doesn't have cloud saves. Multi iDevicers am cry.

 

[GeekyDad]

Well, Walking Dead Assault has managed to make me forget about Knights of Pen & Paper for a bit. Very fun, very atmospheric, looks great, and the later chapters mix things up in some cool ways. Definitely a great $2 companion to the WD universe.

 

[Mrbob]

Yeah I'll wait and see if the credit kicks in the next day or I'll contact Apple.

Just bought Knights of Pen & Paper myself. So good.
