Community Insight:
Highly recommended to any fan of platformer games we just found this game and love it.
This game is a classic on our iDevices. The update, while the graphics aren't as crisp on our Air as we'd like them to be, is a welcome fit on the latest iOS. Hopefully, the graphics will be amped up soon in the next iteration.
This game… Is great! We love the detail in it and in our opinion, this is a good game for children and adults! You did very well on this game Chillingo Ltd, keep up the great work.
We've beat this beautiful game a few times now, but here we are, downloading it onto our new device. Would love for an update.
What a Great game ! There are not many games that keep us playing. This is one of them. Perfect controls and gameplay. If your looking for a fun game get this one.
How can we keep playing it if won't save our progress.
Best platformer we've played on ios yet. Don't let the cutesy graphics fool you, this gets pretty challenging. Good controls and nicely designed levels. The mechanics are a bit different than a standard platformer, so don't let that throw you off if it feels weird at first. It's worth getting used to. Finished all 40 regular levels, the 10 bonus levels, and the challenge levels. There are endless "survival" levels too but they seemed kind of pointless. It's not super short, especially if you collect all the sugar cubes and find the hidden stickers, but it's not super long either and we'd love new levels.
This game is awesome. It's just short of being legendary in our opinion. Very fun, challenging in the best ways. The graphics are creative and amazingly detailed. We were adverse to $3 price, but it's worth every penny. If this game was a bit longer, maybe with some bosses and more of a story, it could be epic. Either way, very fun way to stay busy at work lol.
This game worth every penny Good graphics too.
This game is extremely awesome! There aren't very many levels, unfortunately, but the gravity is extremely realistic. There don't seem to be any glitches. Very fun.
This is an absolutely phenomenal game. Not nearly enough people are talking about it. If we didn't happen to read David Jaffe's (creator if God of War and Twisted Metal) games of 2011 list we wouldn't know about it either. Chillingo should get the word out regarding this title. It's fascinating.
Amazing game but you really need to add more levels, we finished it so quickly and am constantly looking for an update. We need more Storm in a Teacup – we can't get enough.
Awesome game!! Love the customizations! Its addicting, we have played for 5 hours.
Games available on this platform. Action, puzzling, quality art/graphics, this is very well done. Paid for this, no regrets, its a lot of fun and a great value. This offers a lot more challenge than it looks, and serious and satisfying gameplay.
Like most iOS platformers, this game suffers from on screen control issues. They are not responsive enough for us to give this 5 stars. But we do like the game.
Super cool platform game! The levels are challenging and difficult, but make you think.
Think this looks easy? Think again. Truly one of the best & very well designed.
We're totally addicted to this game! It's really challenging on some levels but tons of fun… It's really the best! We also really love the bonus levels, but we beat those faster than the regular levels… And the challenge levels are awesome as well! Only thing we have to say to the developers is great job, love your game and PLEASE ADD MORE LEVELS SOON! :).
Where will we start, the control is perfection, the graphics is magical, and the game aspect is brilliant, everything just works. Ive been at it for hours, MORE LEVELS PLS! Or a sequel. Keep it up you guys.
More levels, old start screen back, more customizable outfits and another character.
The only times we put this game down was when we had a work deadline to meet, the baby was crying, or we just needed to figure out a new strategy after dying for the 87th time against those 4 cannons and barrels on the last level! This is the most fun we've had playing a platformer on iOS. Chillingo understands the limitations of the device and uses a simple control scheme. That is what we believe to be one of the keys to an iOS game's success — KISS on the controls. It's why even a complex and beautiful game like Mirror's Edge worked so well. We only have two complaints about this game: 1) we need more levels yesterday! 2) There is an achievement for playing the credits level, but we can't find that level. We have every other achievement (14/15) and so we would think we would have run into the credit's level by now… Love it.
Great game – truly a console-caliber platformer with controls that are simple (yet in their own way sophisticated) and levels that you can play in short bursts. Charming graphics and a really fun concept.
This game takes a few components of Little Big Planet and rolls them up into an app for the iPhone. Level design is composed of "stickers" and quirky machinations, which you can collect the stickers throughout the game to customize your character. The way your character dies is reminiscent of SackBoy biting the dust, and level components explode in a similar manner as LBP's recurring obstacles. Even level completion is akin to LBP. With all the likenesses between the two, this is still a solid game that stands firmly on its own two feet. The platforming is simple to grasp, the level designs can be challenging, and the controls leave nothing to be desired. Definitely worthwhile.
Speechless! We LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUV THIS Game… And for 99 cents only total best buy!!!! U won't regret buying it! Super fun and addicting! :).
Haven't got the best opinion since we haven't played through yet- we know we're going to be sucked in. Just want the logo to go back to the original – sounds picky, but it was a way better design and should be changed back on the next update. Good work on everything else.
We've been hooked for weeks! Great platformer, controls are perfect. We would like to see the old icon back, though; Simple, recognizable picture.
Thanks for the sweet update.. The bonus levels are awesome and it's cool to try to get all the stickers so you can change storm's appearance. Thanks.
How can we open the second door of bonus level 9? Maybe we did not find the trigger. By the way, it is a very very interesting game and very cute.
It's challenging but fun the new version really has u play for the different clothes.
We love this game. The levels are short so you can play anywhere. The graphics are imaginative and some of the levels are hard but we kept at it and managed to get through them. They have already added ten bonus levels and that is appreciated. Addictive fun.
This app iz a true must buy! Kno why? Bcuz it includes amazing gameplay and level designs that will keep u playing till the end and beyond! Also thx 4 the update we haven't playd the bonuses yet but we will in just a lil bit!.!.! We ttly recommend dis app it iz da best!!! MUST BUY THIS APP.
This a sort of like Mario in a teacup. But it's a hugely addicting game and so unique and so much more fun than most other games. The controls are a bit challenging (at least for us) but that in no way made us hesitate to buy this game. TOTALLY WORTH IT.
Great game, cute graphics, nice music and challenging all to boot. Some of the levels are a little difficult, but DON'T give up! Only thing that we would like added would be a few more sounds for the main character. That would put this one over the top. Get it.
Ok, we noticed a problem when u let's go of the move button(s) u slide some. And that makes us dies a lot by sliding into stuff or falling. Could u plz fix it to when u let of the move buttons u stop instantly. We would appreciate it if u would. Thanks. The game is really fun.
We really like the concept! A lot of replay value with leaderboards and achievements! *we feel the graphics don't fully support the retina display. They need to be sharper! **The movement controls are too far apart. We think the arrows should be closer together or give the option to space them how you want.
We love this game, but we feel like the left and right controls are too close together, and sometimes they don't work! Great buy though.
We have been waiting for this game for sooooo long once we first heard about it on their website almost a year ago and we must say it's even better than we expected. First of all we're blown away that this game is only 99 cents and this is for the iPhone,iPod and iPad. Now that right there is a great reason to pick this game up. If you want more you know it's a great game if Chillingo and Cobra Mobile are behind it, it has tons of levels and the gameplay is simply stunning. As you would expect from veteran mobile developer Cobra Mobile, Storm in a Teacup is visually impressive. The backgrounds are packed with detail, and the levels ooze charm and style in equal measure. Truth be told, it is quite easy to take your eyes of the main character just to look around you, resulting in an untimely death. While Storm in a Teacup is undeniably a platformer, Cobra recognises touch controls are far from suitable for tricky games. For this reason, the main character doesn't jump, it glides for a second or so, which is much more forgiving. Timing is still essential for surviving the later tricky moments but it ensures you will be blaming yourself for mistakes, not the iPad. To keep things interesting there are various items to collect, and most will take some finding. You don't need to complete them to progress but if you come back there is more to see. Aside from jumping your way through the game, there are random mini-games dotted about. Shooting targets with a cannon, finding keys to open doors and more attempt to keep you from tiring of the core gameplay. Not that you should, as although the theme remains similiar through the game's many levels, curiosity and varied backdrops keeps you hooked. It is hard not to love Storm in a Teacup. It looks and feels like a great platformer, and whilst not revolutionary, it is clear Cobra Mobile understands the platform. Simple to pick-up and easy on the eye, we find it hard to fault this magical title. We're really looking forward to future updates with more wacky levels, characters, Game Center achievements and so much more. The iPad could have customizable controls for those with smaller fingers but overall sweet stuff. Thank you so much for this game and keep up the fantastic work.
Thought(even while having read the description) that storm was going to have some kind of lightning bolt haha but the music is pretty chill, graphics look sleek, and it is a challenging game. Great app.
You shouldn't buy this because every time we try to play it it freezes up and it won't let us play so it is a general waste of money.
This is an amazing game, anything Chillingo comes up with is so fun!!! We love this game, with great controls and cute graphics it is our favorite game! Amazing and worth the pay!!! Get it now and you will not want to stop playing.
This is one of our favorite games in the whole wide world!!! Love how everything looks like it's falling apart.
We can't beat the 5th level in the first world? But we give the game a . So cute and so much fun, we wish everyone loved this game and had it.
Everything about the whole game is incredible.
Chillingo is a great company at making games, but a terrible one at UPDATING them. Anyways, great game, love it, very fun, GET IT! Also, if it crashes for you, just restart your device. We did and it worked.
We highly recommend it, it's very addictive, great graphics and extremely fun, we couldn't put it down.
Easily the most fun we've had on an iOS platformer game. For the love of god, please make a sequel… Please.
Very addictive and has the cutest graphics.
Kinda like Mario only you get to play with the physics of your floating tea cup……. Chillingo please more levels.
We consider ourselves a hardcore gamer by definition but this game shouldn't be missed by hardcore players or casual players. Great graphics, gameplay, and controls. We have been looking for that "go to" platformer for our iPad and we think we've definitely found it.
This game looks babyish but it's not it gets difficult as you progress and just feels like your playing little big planet! So we recommend this if you like LBP.
