Hi there! Thanks to the feedback we got since release, we update Skybolt Zack today! We fixed a few bugs concerning achievements: - The "Perfect!" achievement requires to get a Full Combo 1 time, matching the description. - "And the World is saved" no longer unlocks when beating the final boss in route B, and actually unlocks when beating it in route A. Leaderboards: - Leaderboard shouldn't display in the wrong order anymore. Difficulty adjustement: - Zack now starts every level with 4 HP instead of 3, making beating levels and training easier. - Destroying enemy increase the range faster than before, helping building up range to combo enemies and making some enemies easier to reach. We hope these tweaks will help and as always, please send us feedback so we can improve the game further!
- Skybolt Zack is a rhythm-platformer that requires a mastery I can't give it - 8 November 2019
One Finger Death Punch is one of the most satisfying games ever made. It’s a brawler in which one button attacks enemies to your left, and another attacks enemies to your right. With these simple controls, you tap-tap-tap your way through approaching waves of enemies while your stickman protagonist spins, kicks, punches and slices away in the center of the screen.

There are enemies that require multiple taps, then enemies that must be tapped in a certain order, then projectiles that must be tapped out of the air, and so on. It gradually extends your reflexive ability to respond to the chaos on screen, until you enter into a state of hyper-awareness. After this, returning to levels that seemed frantic an hour ago reveals them to be plodding bores…
