Passes time
The graphics are relatively faithful to the game. Basic functionality is there but there are some bits that don’t work correctly. You cannot joust the teradactyl in the mouth to kill it. It just always kills you. You cannot bounce off the cliff, it just stops you. If you touch the lave you cannot escape by flapping hard to get out, you just die. The teradactyl occasionally hangs around on the next level. Especially level 5. If you accept those, the game is fun to play.
Blast from the past
Spent many an hour with this game as a kid. They did a pretty good job bringing this back. Unfortunately it seems to crash a bit more then I’d like to admit. You could be playing and off it goes or if you try to place your name on leadership board…again, crash. Hope the developers look into this and haven’t abandoned the game. Work out those kinks and your in for fun
Needs controller support!
This is an amazing port of my all time favorite video Ahmed love the game, brings back so many memories, but lack of controller support happens the enjoyment, add full controller support and it will be like 1982 all over again.
Love joust
Classic game and playable on mobile but would be great if they could ad controller support
Pixel perfect, wish it had controller support
This is an excellent, pixel perfect version of the classic arcade game. If it offered Bluetooth controller support it would be 5 stars perfect. Developer, I would support a Patreon or any campaign to help you add controller support to your arcade games, please make it happen!
Nostalgic Awesomeness
Love the game! It’s just like the old school cabinet arcade. I noticed the leaderboard and forum are offline. Hoping it comes back soon!
Child memories
Love it last time I played was 40
I want to love this, but needs work.
Joust is my all time favorite video game. I was so excited to see it in the App Store. Then I tried playing it. The onscreen controls are very difficult to use. I would love to see support for Bluetooth controllers (PS4, PS5) and a MacOS Version.
Controller
Controlling needs to be better but good game overall
About time
Real deal here! This is the old school classic Joust arcade. Real fun. Hope this developer makes some more classics!
Love the game!
It’s a great game and I enjoy playing it. My only gripe would be that we need directional buttons for facing left or right. It’s hard to navigate.
Love it!
Thanks for making this game that is my favorite since being a kid. So like playing original. Now only if you could make a whack-a-mole game that was anything like 😊
Nostalgia
I loved this as a kid. Game stays true to the original. One suggestion, I would like to see a way to use the new Bluetooth controller with the game. I have found the tap left and right hard to get accurate and my thumbs blocked the screen.
Wish I could play music while playing joust
Is there any way that you could make it so that Spotify can play in the background while you play joust?
