Fun, different, and addictive

Lady Raelyk

This game is VERY fun and addicting, and very creative. Very good use of the accelerometer, really makes you think and it does get quite intense. The improvement I would like to see is level achievements like Angry Birds or Cut the Rope and many other games like them. Having to start from the beginning is challenging, but unfortunately it is annoying just enough to make it a game that will not stand the test of time. Meaning for me that I will be addicted for a good while but then it will become just another app that was fun at first. Hence the missing star.

This is a very fun game! :) There should be a mode that's not timed and a level select


It's ok....

It's pretty fun but gets boring fast.


Cute idea, but gets boring fast

Mikepa

Neat idea for 2 or 3 minutes, but I don't see anything addictive about it. Needs a lot more development.


Great start!

This is a cool idea and fun for a few tries, but it's so bare bones in its present state, I doubt I'll come back to it before the next update. The graphics could use a lot more punch, and it would be cool to get some kind of feedback for doing well. Still, a great start! And thanks for using Game Center!


Crazy Fun!

This app is really cool and fun. Has a great design, good sounds, and is easy to just pick up and play. Great job to the developer!! I really like the neon effects too! Ok, gotta go play it again now...


The most fun you

The premise barely sounds like a game, tilt your device just right so the markers line up with the targets as quickly as possible. Once you successfully with the marks you'll get a few extra seconds added to the timer and you try to see how many of these tilt objectives you can hit until your time runs out. Soon enough, however, you'll find yourself twisting yourself leaning and twisting your whole body in sympathetic movements to sync up with some of the crazy angles you're trying to match. I love how the game tries to mix stuff up with some targets you need to hold the markers on, other times you only need to brush by the target. Sometimes you only need to match things on a single axis, other times it will be both. Sometimes the targets will even be moving with you being expected to keep your marker within the borders of the target for three full seconds! Important Note: You'll probably want to lock the orientation of your device before playing or your poor iDevice will soon get very confused trying to properly orient itself to your odd shiftings.


Great game greater

Was already great, now the different mode makes it even more challenging. Update was a nice surprise today! Would have paid for it again.


Competent but Uninspired

On a Tilt perfectly exemplifies the difference between a good and a great game, only it winds up on the wrong side of the fence than the one it was probably aiming for. The iOS App Store is filled with terrific titles that sell for next to nothing, yet manage to squeeze admirable amounts of creativity and fun out of simple ideas. On the surface, On a Tilt sounds like it might fit right in. The game presents you with four bars on screen, two horizontal and two vertical. In each bar is a tiny strip that is controlled by tilting the device. As each pair of bars (one vertical, one horizontal) is on an opposite axis from the other, you must twist your device (and your brain) in crazy ways so that the strips in your control line up with green target areas. This does make for a certain amount of fun, but On a Tilt never manages to overcome the feeling that you’re playing around with a hidden programmer’s tool rather than a full game. The presentation is simple to a fault, lacking any charm or spark, and there’s no compelling reason to keep coming back to it. The single mode available is repetitive, taking too long to warm up and become challenging. Once it does, you’ll find yourself frustrated rather than entertained because it relies on cheap tricks to increase difficulty. The green target zones become smaller or start moving around, which isn’t so bad until they also start fading in and out so you literally can’t see what you’re aiming for. Perhaps the most annoying quirk is its habit of flipping the screen upside down for no apparent reason, forcing you to waste time moving your device around in order to continue. This isn’t a fun challenge, it’s a waste of time designed to eat away precious seconds on the game’s timer. The game has few obstacles to throw your way, and most are simply annoying instead of entertaining. The primary issue is that, on a mechanical level, On a Tilt doesn’t feel all that different to play than something like Super Monkey Ball or one of the other countless games that require you to tilt the device to win in some fashion. Compared to its competition, this game is too bare-bones to compete. It’s not a terrible game by any stretch, and could undoubtedly be improved with additional updates bringing new challenges or modes, but as it stands it doesn’t manage to distinguish itself in a sea of similar titles.
