Ratings and Reviews
No retina support yet, slightly confusing iCloud support.
I bought GoF2 FullHD to complement the version I have on my iPad.
I'm disappointed to find that there's no retina display support on the Mac, although you can use the highest scaled resolution available (1920x1200) and the game does look very good.
There initially appeared to be no way to sync the game with iCloud, but once I'd saved my game to the correct "iCloud" slot on the iPad, it appeared on the Mac.
Once you're in game, it's entirely playable and as good fun as the other versions, although startup time is slow, and the "launcher" menu is pretty ugly.
With the pace of improvement that Fishlabs are keeping up, I expect this version of the game to be excellent within a couple of months.
Honestly, a waste of money, very disappointing...
Thius has to be the slowest game in the history of gaming. The compulsory use of jump gates and the speed of in game-travel generally is tedious, the time it takes to do anything, the painfully slow plot, frankly if you dont cheat-and-buy credits you may as well give up. Also - major bone of contention here if you do give in and buy credits if you get killed and start a new game, the credits you purchased die in that game too, they have no apparent restore in game purchase feature for credits! The map navigation is ludicrous. Why can't you set a course for crossing the systems automatically rather than having to jump to one, re-plot, jump to another, re-plot. Not even beleievable never mind unrealistic. Look at the price of this game and all the options and I have purchased them all, but really, despite it looking amazing, its a pain of an experience to play, quite simply they make you do things for the sake of doing them and they add no game experience of any value.
M1 PS4 Controller = <3
Recently got an M1 Mac mini and gratified to find this runs perfecly on it, but stunned to find that it works with a DualShock 4 with very little tweaking required. It is, however, a shame they didn't have the forsight to map menu navigation to the D-pad.
As for the game? I played this to death on my iPad and iPhone on original release and I'm happy to report the witty writing holds up and the gameplay is still very satisfying.
For the Future? Please bring the Switch game to Apple platforms 😊
