Well, 99.9 % of the games out there have their ideas from other games that came before them. It´s just the way they posted this rant about Ascent, which looked pretty imature and I don´t think they needed this, because more people know of Gravity Hook than Ascent.
I agree. Making fun of other devs is unprofessional. This kind of display may or may not prevent people from buying the game but the devs gain far more respect if they are more restrained.
I played this game called Itsy Bitsy Spider and enjoyed that loads. Can't imagine how much I'm going to love this, seeing as they are similar, but this one has much more polish.
"Gravity Hook HD will launch in the App Store as a universal (iPhone + iPad) app on July 29th for $2.99!" http://twitter.com/semisecret/status/19353977222
Think I'll wait until they get Canabalt running properly again on 3GS/3rd gen iPods before I drop any money on this.
Yeah although $2.99 sounds a bit high for it. I will wait for a few days and listen to your guys' impressions first before making my move.
Well, judging from the comments in the Canabalt thread and recent reviews in the app store, you guys are part of the lucky few. Don't get me wrong, it still runs... it just runs at 1/2 of the frame rate it did before the iOS4 update. Semi-Secret is aware of the issue, they just haven't done anything about it yet.
