Sway Lite (iPhone)
Now this is good.
You’re a lovely, floppy little guy (either a lizard or an unlockable pirate in this demo) and you have to swing through levels to the exit. Your left thumb controls the left arm, your right thumb the right arm. Press on the screen to hold, move your thumb to swing, let go to let go, then put your thumb back on the screen to grab hold again.
It takes some getting used to, but by the end of the demo I’d improved dramatically compared to my first halting swings.
It really does appear to be very, very good indeed. Maybe even £2.99 good. I’ll have to go and find some reviews, to see if there are any complaints about later levels, but I urge you to go and try the Lite version right now – and don’t give up after thirty seconds.
Incidentally, I only downloaded this because the main character is going to be a co-op character in a future update of Minigore. Cross-promotion in games obviously works, then.
Oh, and for the record, when I use the word “guy” it’s gender neutral. I know that’s not standard usage, but I’m a rebel and I play by my own rules.
