Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Its good the music is like a gba game and the level selection theme changes every time you tap the arrows.
Its really great and fun. Its the best fast paced game we found. We accidentally found an unlimited pepper glitch on robo reckoning 5 though. Not sure how to explain how it works, so we dont know what to do.
We love this game. It's so action packed. Thanks for making this game.
This game is super fun, it is though a little hard but thats what makes it addictive. Love the design.
This game has taken so much of our time but we still find every level to be exciting and frustrating. Trail and error is key. Completing a level is quite satisfying and the rush is like nectar. The pixel graphics are also very tasteful. There are 5 (not including the tutorial) worlds and the difficulty is compounded with each world of 6 levels. Each world introduces a new concept and every other level shows the player a new way to use that mechanic where the others focus on building each skill to the max. If you search hard enough you may also find some secret shortcuts in levels so look out for those! There are also goals set by each level to earn stars which help you progress(3 stars per level. 1 for completing, 1 for getting a certain amount of collectable and 1 for completing the level in time.) All in all this game is very good and we have had a blast pulling out our hair while playing it.
Ive been playing for about a week and this game is great. It challenging and fast paced, and we dont know how you can make this game better besides to keep making more levels to never stop the fun and a way to use the jalapeos as a currency for skins thanks for a great game we hope it continues well.
The movement of this game can seem pretty rigid at times, which is bad for more casual players. But the moment you start going as fast as you can go, the game gets 10 times better. Our personal best for fiendish forest 6 is 20:71, which was achieved by seeing where we could insert a speed boost without being punished and jumping at the right times. We bet it could be done even faster, too.
Its a really good game but sometimes its not challenging but a good platformer.
We love this game because of the pixel art and the amount of work and effort that is put in every detail. Not that Im here to really criticize the game Im just want to give constructive criticism. We think you could make a story of some sort or even a race mode where you race someone online through a course and get a reward.anyways that our opinion take it or leave it thats all…. SEBASTIAN CURCA WAS HERE.
We really like this game. We like the platforming of it.we like how addictive it gets. We can go on and on but we really just like everything about it(besides how raging it gets).Also can you please add more maps because we really want more of it.
Make the buttons slightly bigger.
Alguien sabe q es la wea que agarra el chancho culiao? Parecen morrones pero no creo.
This game is cool we like it, the graphics are nice, the flow is nice, the only thing frustrating is you cant control from left to right! Other than that its super fun.
Missing SOUNDS!!!! All Nitrome games Ive downloaded are pretty fun but they are all missing their soundtracks and FX! We hope this helps the developers and isnt lost on them.
Fun. Would like to see more levels.
There is like a delay in the controls. Pls fix this, we really like your game :).
When we were playing our game we were almost at the end out of nowhere it glitched and Im back in the beginning with the times still going.
We hate this moving spike in tricky toy land 4 can u please remove it plz.
Its a great game and everything we already beat it and really enjoyed it but its just the annoying ads other than that we really enjoyed it but their are some bugs.
This game is truthfully fun, and its a great experience What makes us angry is not the game itself, but the stupid ads messing up our groove and pattern. And you also give the ads that take about 7 taps to get out of and it angers us, and most of the time, we get very close to deleting the whole game. Its ironic how the ads are making us more angry than the game itself is trying to achieve. Another issue we have with the game is the reaction time when pressing buttons, theres times where the buttons dont react when we press them and it messes up our rhythm.
This game is a very good game but theres this ad that pops up every time we die every 5 times and its getting frustrating.
Its a great game but our one problem is that we need to be able to collect the peppers to spend on new characters! If that was in the game we would give it a five star rating.
Please add left to right control.
Game plays great but we found something weird. A weird looking face appears if you fail a bunch of times on a stage. Just, what the hell.
Today we learned that fast paced games are not our thing and thats OK! The music is very good though and the art is rad.
Fun game with cool pixel graphics. Has Game Center but only leaderboards. We couldnt care less about leaderboards on a platform game. Please consider adding achievements.
The game is ehhhh because it is limited on what you can do. You can play the levels and redo levels. That is kind of boring in our opinion. But on the positive side there are no major bugs that annoy you to death. Now There are these pop up ads that dont let you get off of them and it makes you have to get of the app and go back on. That needs to be fixed. So the two things we would like to see are More things to do and the pop up adds.
We think that this game would be good, but since we cant even launch in Ill give it a three star. If you guys could fix this then that would be great thank you.
We love games like these that are hard fast and fun but there are two problems we have 1. Sometimes when we press the button that jumps or the one that slides it just doesnt work and its annoying us when Im speed running a level and 2. When a add appears sometimes its just frozen and we cant get out of it without having to restart the game so aside of these issues the game is amazing.
We understand ads are a part of a free game but when Im focused and an ad pops up. Just takes the fun out of the game. Also controls are unresponsive a lot…. We timed it and an ad pops up every thirty seconds. Which is just too much.
This game is beautiful and fun and we want to love it, but there are glitches that make the frustratingly difficult become just frustrating and angering. You need fast twitch controls in this game. We know Im hitting the buttons and the spicy piggy isnt jumping. Is there like a half second delay after landing thats supposed to be part of the game? Another thing that keeps happening, Ill reach a checkpoint and itll show us the start, but the spicy piggy isnt there. And itll just keep looping. Until these glitches are fixed its not worth getting too invested in this beautiful little game, but its free, unless you pay to have ads removed.
El juego es bueno, pero los controles son malos.
This game has the potential to be a blast, but the controls seem flat and unresponsive, which doesn't bode well in a game that requires you to chain actions in a way that's nearly frame/pixel perfect.
Doesnt respond to all taps making the controls very annoying The music gets very repetitive.
Great game would be five stars if there wasnt unclosable adds causing us to restart app and level which is infuriating.
Its a great premise and look, but the controls are terribly unresponsive in a game that is about speed.
Its a fun game but the slide is a bit unresponsive and we heavily dislike that the gameplay is interrupted by ads. We think its reasonable to put in ads in between levels but not when they interrupt gameplay.
The controls are just barely not responsive enough. It just doesnt click. Not satisfied.
This game has good ideas ( as well as good art and music ) but in a lot of instances ( especially world 5 ) the game feels like it requires frame perfect button presses or dumb luck to progress, that combined with the over abundance of useless ads, makes the game very very infuriating. TLDR: this game is super frustrating and we give it 2.5 stars.
This game is fun and all but half of the Time the controls have a 2 second delay sometimes we cant even jump without being cautious second complaint is that we know the games hard and all but can you add a difficulty modes or at least a handicap.
Our game will not play dont know why it dose the logo and show pig breathing fire but when we press play it says black.
Will it was fun but like you almost can never get the recommend time.
Good game, needs more attention this wasnt finish to us. Controls are very bad and lags need to fix controls add something else in the mix to keep them coming back for us after they die or something.
This game has some good ideas behind it. Overall its a great idea. But the controls and control responsiveness is absolutely awful. It makes what could be a great, enjoyable game into a terrible experience. We know that youre going for a rage game, we understand that. But, theres a big difference between a good rage game that makes you want to come back, and one that is only a rage game because its poorly made. This is unfortunately the latter. Fix the controls, and this will be a fantastic game. Until then, itll stay at 2 stars in our book.
This is one of the many games trying to learn from super Mario run and failed terribly. The frame rate is not catching up so everything looks blurry and eye hurting. The challenge is to gather all chilis and achieve the time limit. This is challenging but not in a good way. The control is not responsive enough to perform a chain of acts, especially the sliding button. No one wants to try 20 times for the first few levels to get all 3 stars. So annoying playing it.
We just wanted a chill platformer, but this is impossible.
The controls are too clunky and hard to use.
Some times we will be trying to get 3 stars But sometimes we press the dash button but we just WALK.
The game is very very very hard. The ads were extremely obnoxious. Would NOT play again.
Every time we try to go through this level it always goes crazy and it is taking control of the game.
