Here is a new teaser and screens and info!
Looking like July will be launch month!
So along with 3 princess coins in every level there is also one "lost Painting".
as I mentioned earlier a lot of the levels have more then one version, think mario 64.
The paintings can only be found in 1 of the sub levels, where as the princess coins can be collected within any version of a stage
Now as for Princess coins, those are hidden a bit better this time around. and in order to get some of them you need to collect 7 green coins within a limited time to make them appear. it's much more challenging(and more fun I hope!) to get all 3 coins in every level
With the position of the controls coming down to personal preference have you thought about the user being able to move them to their preferred position for eg left handed players might want the movement on the right or some might prefer the action and jump closer together.
This was one of the biggest requests I had when I made the platform v1 template a few years ago (see beginning of the video).
If you haven't included a feature like this I would strongly advise you do just to give people no excuses to moan about the layout.
@DeepBlueApps I wish I could! but I added a pinch zoom feature (it's pretty cool!) in this game so the player can zoom and and out to get a better view of the surroundings, so all the buttons stay locked in one spot. I matched the placement of the buttons as close as I could to more popular platformers like league of evil so it will hopefully be a intuitive for players. and Thanks for the support! I can't wait for everyone to try it out
Oh, but when playing on iPad the camera zoom is locked/the buttons will be placeable. just iPhone 4/5 will be stuck as is.

Fantastic! How you get enough time to keep pumping these out so quickly (for the massive size they are) I'll never know. Best of luck with it! I'll be picking it up on the 31st!
Thanks for all the support and kind words guys! it means a lot
I'm excited for you guys to try out the pinch zoom! it was a real nightmare doing all the math to lock the HUD display while zooming the screen in and out, but I think it's a neat feature!
