I think it would be best to start out this review with some background. I didn't like Splosion Man. It was my first review on this website and I tore it a new one with constant bitching about it's game design. I didn't even think about reviewing games before I played that game and I was so pissed at Splosion man that it got me to post a review because I needed to vent my dissatisfaction.
I recognized that it had some fun humor and the controls were good and the simple game design worked in it's favor to keep things focused but....I just had no fun with it. The game was just so full of balls hard sequences where their was no room for error. It ended up making the game pure torture for a gamer like me. I've never had any patience for being a perfectionist with super hard games and I've always been of the opinion that any game that is difficult on purpose on it's lowest available difficulty setting is punishing people who don't like hard games for being unlucky enough to be suckered in by it.
Yes I did feel suckered by Splosion Man
So I never paid attention to Twisted Pixel after that fact. I didn't like the first game I played of theirs and didn't want to give them a second thought as a developer. I had never really heard of Comic Jumper, and had no idea Twisted Pixel was responsible for it. When asked out of a list of games which ones I would like to get for free to review on Bitmob during the recent giveaway for writers I included Comic Jumper on the list because I'm a fan of comic books, and I was interested in the idea of parodying them in a game format. So when I won the free download code I was pleased. It was a chance to try a new game and have some fun.
A new challenger approaches
It's been four hours and I'm not sure I've had anything resembling fun with this game.
