This game is the living embodiment of easy to play hard to master. At face value, it’s simple and straight forward. There are really only two rules to this game: avoid the saw-blades, and collect the coins after you do. But, as you play a little longer you start to realize how diabolically challenging and rewarding this retro 2D game can be. Jumping over 1 saw-blade = 1 Coin/Point. Jumping over 2 saw-blades = 3 Coins/Points. This pattern continues if you can manage to jump over more saw-blades. The coins/points earned after each successful jump/land have to then be collected for it to count towards your score & add additional time to the clock.Throw in the added nuance of being able to double jump (1 from the ground / 1 in the air) and you begin to experiment with even crazier ways to jump over saw-blades to maximize your points earned. In addition to your double jump ability, the height of your first jump can be affected by how long you hold down the jump button initially. You can long press to give yourself a better chance of using your second mid-air jump to gather more points or avoid a close call with death when you’re backed into a dicey corner.As you learn the in’s and outs of maximizing your points and when not to jump depending on the angle and trajectory of new saw-blades coming down. You start to appreciate the many hidden nuances and underlying gameplay mechanics that make this game so rewarding to play. Absolutely love this game. Kudos to the developer. Keep up the fantastic work.

So, as of now, this game came out yesterday- I just wanna put that out there. It is so far really amazing, and I love the nostalgic arcade feel it has. Now, I could go on and on about how good it is, but I have a few complaints that might be worth addressing. First off, the gacha system: the first saw-blade skin you buy is 20 credits. Alright.. a bit much but fine. The 2nd is 30… now, especially because you need to jump and collect the point from 10 saw blades to get 1 ticket, this feels like too much. I think there should either be a more gradual increase, or a flat rate. Second, controls. Now i know that the controls are meant to be more retro arcade feeling.. and they work fine, but the directional buttons are a bit glitchy. They kind of just- stop working sometimes. While holding down to go to the side, they sometimes just stop moving while mid jump, without me letting go of the button. Now, I say all of this with full consideration that this literally came out yesterday, and is going to have bugs, however, I hope the devs will address these issues, and hopefully fix them in game.

I’ve only had the game for two days now and I’m not very good at it, but once I adjusted the button placement to fit where I naturally place my thumbs I can honestly say every bad move and jump has been caused entirely by my own overconfidence. I love how quickly you can jump right back in after dying, and the quick, retro beat of the music only encourages you more. God I love the music so much, if you normally play games without sound do yourself a favor and turn it on just to hear how amazing that beat is. I was so excited when I realized the ‘eyeball’ saws would lock onto you and follow your movements if you got too close- it’s little details like that which really show you how much thought was put into this game. I’m really happy this game came to Apple Arcade, it deserves a lot of love and attention and is definitely worth checking out.

Love the amount of customization that you can do, and how this is not a game where you must grind, but a game of pure skill. Totally addicting, but a little simple. I have not played the full game, as my high score is 41, so don’t fully trust the simple part, but overall super fun and addictive! I totally recommend it, and it’s really funny, for example, you can make the saws into killer toast (how does bread that games from the sky so deadly?!?🤣) 10/10, ya should play it, it’s a good pass time for people with nothing to do or that just want to chill. One warning though, after playing for like 25 minutes I start to get slightly nauseous and have to take a break, but it might be other causes. If your highly sensitive to nausea, take caution while playing, but otherwise, totally fun game, free of ads or in app purchases (I’m not getting paid to say this like those liars on mobile game ads) and it’s a game of pure skill and addictive visuals and fun gameplay.
