Absolutely. It's excellent and an excellent port
Imbroglio's update is out and contains 2 heroes, 16 weapon cards and a game mode:

This method is called receipt validation. You can program logic in the app that varied the experience depending on the version of the app that was originally purchased.
It's something I championed whilst I was at Apple.

Weirdly enough the game does fully work with some MFi controllers but it seems buggy with the nimbus and other controllers.
Yeah, even on my Shield TV the controller works perfectly during gameplay, but not on menus. I've chatted with the devs though and they say they are planning full controller support on both iOS and Android.
Yeah it's neat. Nice surprise.
I picked up Severed, too. It's pretty neat! I like it a lot.
haha, I mean which one is recommended?
Operation Dracula is no joke, holy cow. Game is hard as nails and very, very, very hectic, but a total blast and controls perfectly. An absolute steal at just $0.99
Also picked up PinOut, which is AWESOME. I looooooove it. Such a cool idea to do an endless pinball game. It's gorgeous to boot with a really cool soundtrack.
Also snatched Mos Speedrun 2 (never played either one) and Warcher Defenders for free! Excited to dig into both of them soon enough.

Yes, definitely. Best tower defense I've played in a while
You can listen to podcasts/music if you want. Severed doesn't stop them from playing and has options to turn down/off the in-game music.

Thanks, bought it.
Liked it enough I bought the premium. It's like pinball ramp shooter the game, it has a good feel to it. Adjustable graphic option is appreciated as well. Bumping it down to functional smoothed things out on my mini 2, but balanced runs well enough too.

Ski Safari went from Premium to having a ton of IAP, and all thanks to Jared. Thanks for ruining the game for the rest of us...

I doubt one person is the reason why a developer decides to shift from a paid to F2P

PinOut was fun. Got to Infinity after 3 games. Scored 9500 or so. Not really interested in the full game since I don't see the value after going from start to finish that quick, ha.

I remember clearly...
J: "I wish SS had IAP so I could buy all the things"
Dev in comments: "thats something to think about"
A week later arrived an update with lots of coins, doubler,...
I played a bit and seems to be mostly cosmetic stuff which I don't care about BUT the prices for those things are ridiculous -- so, yeah, if it goes back to paid then the IAPs are way over the top.

Oh wow I totally forgot about this. I wouldn't be surprised if its just about the New Leaf update though, since the mobile game has been delayed.
Anyone try Parallyzed? Sounds good based on the PG preview. Kind of Limbo-esque but with some more puzzle like twists.
Edit: Tried the F2P version on Android and it's okay, but certainly no Limbo. Relies on color swapping mechanics with a split screen between the two sisters. Fun enough but can't say it's worthy of a recommendation.

I'm on a iPhone 6S (or iPad Air) and never noticed it.
That's surprising since the old Rodeo games disbanded. But good news nonetheless.

Great news, I didn't expect it so soon.
I've personally alerted them about Warhammer Quest giving the 'old app' message too since last iOS update (the game works flawlessly anyway).
Rodeo is on pause btw, but it's still alive.
Tried it a while back. Kind of interesting and different but the controls were kind of wonky and pretty buggy. Might have had some updates since then though.

I was hoping it'd come out this week
"VERY SOON", in all caps, made it sound like a much more immediate release.

Me too. I had hoped it would release last week or a surprise release this week (like today). That said, there's usually a big difference between developer "soon" and player/consumer "soon."
SERIOUSLY. Pitta has me super hyped.
