Is it supposed to start wildly off to one side or is that because I hold the Vita at a funny angle as I play?

Anyway, improving that aspect.

Apologies if this has been asked before (I really did try and search for an answer before posting!), but are there any plans/possibilities of bring TxK to the PS4 console? Are the development environments even similar between Vita and PS4?

Thanks!

Use the left stick. Piece of piss.

...unlike certain other aspects of the game. Whatever questions people might have about the design of this iteration, the ruleset, balance, spikes etc, I can wholeheartedly and assuredly confirm one particular aspect of the Llamasoft twitch-gaming oeuvre... Minter is still very much a cunt :D

Level 24 now and I'm swearing like an MP who doesn't know he's being recorded.
Couldn't help myself and went back for a little more.

Presumably you have to go online to get your scores uploaded? (As I can only see a Pure score of yours at around 200k) which is a shame as it's harder to get a true reflection on what is happening.

I'm on 22 and currently 13th on Classic (Raggedtooth) with a paltry 660k.

Really going to have to try and stop now.
8th in survival, 25th in Pure which was my first go and 8th in classic. Does take a little while to sync up. Probably going to be a lot worse for a couple of days :)

Bastard. 9th in survival now. Went back in to get a photo of me in a Llamasoft top 10 because it'll never happen again.

Give them a chance! TxK's not even out yet! :wink:

Who knows what's next, but you're not alone in wanting some Llamasoft love on the PS4. 8)

I'm sorry, but you are wrong. Just played it in the dark. It's better than that.

Level 25 when noise pulse kicks and webs start moving things just shift up another gear....

I want to add A THING about THIS that someone said :
You need to be online when your game finishes to be able to upload to them though, so that high score I got on the plane will never show unfortunately.
NOT TRUE

Because I ripped quite a bit of my hair to get this.

The score is *ALWAYS* ( unless there's no room in the local table and your highest local score already > last one ) recorded in your LOCAL score table(s).

HOWEVER

ANY time you'll manage to go online and/or you start a game and then you log in a "scores synchronization" is attempted.

This means that this guy that played on the plane, as he will get home, starts the game again and/or just logs in its score will "automagically" go on the LBs ( provided that meanwhile he has NOT made already another better score that went online ), as the same time IF necessary the local/online score will update the online/local score.

Ergo as soon as you get online you local/online scores will be "synchronized".

NOTE this feature is provided to you courtesy of code that took me quite a bit to put together it's not a "standard" feature 8)

[edit] that "data access" you see when the game starts for a couple of seconds and/or after you were offline and you log in is precisely doing that, synchronize the scores.

[edit2] if maybe someone can pass this to that Neogaf thread :wink:

That's good to know. Scores do seem to lag though. If I go on to see how a score is doing my last one shows, not my current one.

If I come back later it shows the newer improved score.

Would you expect that?
