One touch gameplay! 
 
Always seems like a massive cop-out to the limitations of smartphone controls.

This game is incredible. Every incarnation I've played over the past 2 years has been better and better. It's out tomorrow! :)

...Gatling guns as a jetpack is one of the greatest things I've ever witnessed.

I feel like I've played about a million versions of this game already. While this looks like on of the best and it certainly has a lot of polish, why would anyone really need to pick this up?

Didn't you hear? People with iPhones love to play games that have been on the PC for a decade.

So this is more Monster Dash but they decided hey the jetpack power we used in our previous game can be made into another game but crazay. So yeah, this is neat.

Heh, looking at the screencap after seeing the David Jaffe video totally makes it look like that dude is an anime Jaffe.

I'm pretty sure that's the same guy from Age of Zombies:) 
 
I really dig Halfbrick. They sure do know how to make accessible, "arcadey-in-an-old-school-way" kinda games. The kinda stuff that would make for great SNES games (like Raskulls or Age of Zombies). They seem to know what they're doing when it comes to making great games, for smart phones, PS Minis or XBLA. 
 
This'll probably be fun.

Looks like a lot of fun, but the graphic style is horrendous to me. For some reason, and it is rare, I cannot stand the way the art is portrayed in this game.

So I get to play as Ninten--heehee, I kid. 
Bullet-propelled jetpacks are always a great idea.

I love the humour more than the idea. Looks cool though.

Gatling Guns as a propulsion system. Best idea ever.
