Skybound (iPhone)

Bounce, bounce, bounce. Fail. Bounce, bounce, bounce. Fail. Etc.

No new high scores last night, not that it really matters. It’s the journey, not the destination. (Man.)

Can you tell that I’m running out of things to say about these great-but-simple iPhone games? I mean, in Skybound you use your finger to draw clouds so a ball doesn’t fall off the bottom of the screen. It looks gorgeous, plays well, all that stuff I’ve mentioned a million times. What else is there to say, really?

Suddenly remembered that I hadn’t played the excellent Skybound for ages and ages, so had a go. Not only was it just as great as I remembered, but I got a new high score! Hooray! Shame it seems to use the ringer volume for its sound effects, though. I hate it when games do that.

One nice thing about the lovely Skybound is that, as well as just going for the best score, there are some challenges to try and complete. Think Achievements and, well, you’re exactly right. The game doesn’t need them, being all the game anyone could need already, but they’re a nice addition. I’d like to say

I realised after I posted my last entry about Skybound that both screenshots showed the same background. Well, I just wanted to prove that there is variation, so here are a couple more screenshots I just took on the toilet at work. That long cloud at the bottom of the screen? It’s a power up

I mentioned in my iPhone games round up that Skybound reminded me of a Flash game. Well, I’ve remembered which one. I was thinking of the very lovely Winterbells. Now combine that with ancient DS game Yoshi Touch & Go and you’ve got Skybound… sort of. Stop. Okay, let’s stop comparing Skybound to other games.

Terminator Salvation Lite – A good effort, with the best use of a virtual d-pad I’ve found, but slightly over-ambitious. Thought has been put into providing a lot of different control options, but none of them quite feel comfortable. Metal Gear Solid Touch Lite – Very much enjoyed this. Drag your sights around the screen
