Bummer dude, I just defaulted to another launcher I had loaded for the afternoon. The now working update has retained all my settings.

They're switching apps up each day so it's likely that there'll be some overlap.

If you're in the mood to spend £2 on a game, make it Rayman Jungle Run. Multi-discipline one-button runner that looks *stunning* and plays really well. Thoroughly recommended -
/morning bump for daytime crowd
Rayman is *fantastic* and Dungeon Village shouldn't be missed for 25p -
Bought and bought. Wasn't sure about Dungeon Village but I liked Game Dev Story and it's only 25p. -

Registered 13 years agoThere are a lot of games from Kairosoft (Game Dev Story etc.) and while they are quite similar I just can't get enough of them. I loved Epic Astro Story (any game that has spoof names from Star Trek in it is a winner).
hmm, noticed they have a few new games out I didnt know about:
Kairobotica, Venture Towns, Oh!Edo Towns and The Sushi Spinnery. -

Kairobotica is like Epic Astro Story and great.
Kairobotica, Venture Towns, Oh!Edo Towns and The Sushi Spinnery.
Venture Towns is great too and similar to Oh!Edo Towns apart from the historical setting.
The Sushi Spinnery is their poorest game to date. OK but not too interesting. -

I've been playing some of Rayman and it really is a stunning looking game (the art is almost certinaly ripped straight out of Origins so that makes sense) and it feels like a decent evolution of the runner genre. It makes good use of the limitations of smart devices (only one input).
Unfortuneately it then introduces the ability to die and fail levels which feels completely at odds with the score chasing throw away nature of the earlier levels, which are what I believe made it such a good mobile game. As soon as I start failing level multiple times I no longer care about getting a decent score I just want to get to the end.
Gorgeous game and well designed to a point, the dying mechanics almost ruin it for me though. -

Registered 7 years agoThanks, I don't think it's much better than overskreen and has some limits unless you pay so I think I'll stick with overskreen. (that and I paid for overskreen already!). -

Registered 14 years agoI've got Goo, Agent Dash, TunedIn Radio Pro (which is great), Dungeon Village and a live HD Underwater wallpaper so far. £1.25 for the lot.
Loving this sale especially as I had a fiver of unspent Google Play credit from my Nexus7 purchase last week.
Anyone know how much many (more) days this sale will run for? -

Registered 15 years agoAnyone else have problems with PowerAmp removing tracks from the library? Have to rescan virtually ever time. Frustrating as I like to shuffle through all my music not just 300 tracks or whatever random number it has chose to this time! -
Been trawling this thread, very helpful in making Note 2 awesome -
Chrome - love how it syncs with my desktop Chrome
MX Player - awesome for watching HD MKV stuff on the way to work
MyFitnessPal - for not being fat
Spotify - music
TVCatchup - er, TV
Unified Remote
- think I need to trawl through some more music apps, didn't really get on with PowerAmp (I'm one of those people who likes Windows Media Player..).
