Gear Jack for Android
Exactly what I was expecting :) one oddity though, falling and jumping does not follow a parabolic curve, which has been really throwing me off. I think that's why the game is so hard
Probably the best mobile game I've ever played. Graphics are great, and the frame rate is solid. It's not everyday that I play a game this challenging (let alone mobile games). This game would be a 5-star game if it didn't require so much timing.
The jumping mechanism is horrible. Even with it fully upgraded it is still impossible to clear obstacles. The controls in general are ridiculously unforgiving.
It would be good if there was a free run mode( still with leader boards)....... And would be good if you could customize yourself rather than just getting customized by upgrades..... And would be cool if you can build levels :P
I am only halfway through this game, but the art and mechanics sold me a long time ago. Highly recommended.
With all the hype around this app, it's pretty disappointing to be left wondering what that's all about. This game is mediocre, at best.
Interesting concept. Poor execution. Counterintuitive controls.
This is the way games SHOULD be.Hip fast and difficult with no start over where you die crap.You die,you start over at the beginning.The ingenious multi stage levels are excruciating.You decide to take a recommended "break" and the app turns itself off causing any multi stage progress to be lost.Instant classic.Would love to be involved in development of new levels and updates.I could imagine some horrifyingly difficult conundrums.I know where youre headed next...so bring it!
Yes this game is AWESOME to me!!! I could not stop playing this action packed platform run and jump game to put this review up. Graphics, music, level design, character development, controls, THE FREAKING CONTROL'S!!! Are perfect. This is my 5th game I Have bought from this developer, and love all my games. This is my new favorite. Taking the title from Time Surfer and a Close 2nd place to DUET. But this CMG has made the GAME! So #1 Gear Jack #2 Time Surfer. Good job CMG for the stellar action. Give it a go
Gear Jack provides an impressive 'art' game, with splendid 3D animations and game design. But in the levels it requires crucial movements many times throughout each level and the checkpoints are too spread from each other. Apart from that, Gear Jack is a wonderful game.
One of the Best running games,Good Graphic,Good Music,Acceptable difficulty
It's okay. If it weren't for the crap controls on the bee copter, and the buttons I keep missing (the missing is why most devs use large control fields) and level 8 not giving me 3 stars even if I get EVERY point possible, I would rate it higher
The game is great, but I think everything should be in the tutorial, including the traps! Level 5 was such a pain cuz of that.
I usually don't like running games but this one is unique. There are some very frustrating aspects of the controls such that I die more because of an unregistered tap than actually sucking. Nevertheless it's fun, but it could be so much more.
Twitch reactions are absolutely not meant for touch controls. What's weird is that is does kind of use the Xperia Play controls but it's incomplete.
Fun game, but it's rather repetitive and boring. Regret paying money for it, but not enough to give it a bad rating.
I almost went for a refund when I realized what type of game this was, but I like C.M. so I gave the game a chance. I am glad I did, because it is very fun. It reminds me of another game, which I also like. It is a dodge-the-obstacles-type game, with responsive button controls. The music reminds me vaguely of megaman, and the graphics are clean. Another quality game...Nice.
With a perfect execution and every special item found, some levels are only giving 2 stars. Please provide some way of knowing what the point requirements the stars are awarded for. Also, sometimes gear jack gets stuck in a roll and won't jump out of it!!
I love runners. This takes running game to a whole new level. Flawless game in my opinion, with one exception. There's ONLY 30 levels! Why must it have ended so soon?! This is seriously awesome for a dollar, though. So so worth it. I hope that in the future they will consider adding a never-ending level with randomly generated traps, where the score is determined by how far you get. Please developers? :)
I don't normally like games, but this is just amazing!
2D running game that gets old fast. Has No personality or desirable features. If it had a demo version I would have avoided spending 99 cents.
I don't know why people are giving this as low as a one star rating. Have you played really, really challenging games before? Super Meat Boy, Super Hexagon, etc? Lots of repetition, absolute precision timing required. The controls for this game are fine. Don't rate this awesome game one star just because it's too hard.
Its hard, but it still makes me wanna keep playing!
The controls are exacting but there isn't any lag. The game responds well on a Galaxy SIII and is a blast to play. Highly addictive if you're a bit of a perfectionist.
I understand that this game is not going to be super easy but you can't click that jump button one second early or late. Also when you release a rolling button you can release it one second too early or you will die. Also, I feel that the checkpoints are too far apart. If I die its before checkpoint and I have to go all the way to the beginning when I'm already near the middle. But besides throwing my phone at the wall every 2 minutes its a ok game. Worth the dollar. Not to shure about that
The game is almost unplayable at harder levels for me the way the controls are positioned. Too close to the edge of the screen, I have big hands. I usually wind up missing them just a bit so they don't register or I hit the edges of my phone. Please make them movable.
Its a good game but u need to click buttons perfectly or die. Its impossible
This game is so broken if it were an animal even PETA would say to kill it. Waste of a perfectly good 99 cents
This is fun but difficult game. I would recommend it to others.
It's not bad. There's some "customization" but it's unclear how to earn more points for such. There are some minor irritations, but it's still mildly fun. Probably wouldn't pay for it again. For the most part, the game doesn't really use skill, so much as memorization of the level's layout. Additionally, it's got a slow intro due to its admittedly impressive graphics needing to load, so you can't really jump into it and out of it when you have a minute break here and there.

There is absolutely no margin of error. The controls can be unresponsive. And I can see that others agree with me. Please cosider making the game more playable.
The game isn't bad, but it is poorly designed. It is often difficult to tell the difference between terrain and obstacles. Also, not menu or quit option once in game.
The background graphics are there to attempt to distract you from completing the level. Eye, hand coordination is a must, as this game was designed right.(and tight) world's look great(and work) on all my devices so far. Note ll, Skyrocket ll, nexus 7 and Asus 10.1 tf pad. Congrats dev, instant classic in my book!
I love this game and I find it's difficulty insanely fun and what a good game is all about. But what the heck?? On lvl 10 where do you go with the remote control helicopter thing? It just goes to a dead end?! Please respond dev. Some one please respond. My twitter is @jimbohurt
I love the game. Yet I hate it at the same time. I'll set up a few pros and cons Pros: looks great, good music, lots of levels. Cons: you have to be so precise with the jumps. I almost threw my phone at the wall, needs more customisation for the character I think. That is all. 4 star.
The controls of this game are exacting and unforgiving, to the point that the game play suffers. A great deal of precision is required for almost everything - from jumping to registering jump actions and even knowing when to stand up - and the checkpoints are too far apart. But it sure does look great.
Been playing this for a couple months now, it is a blast. Extreme hand eye coordination is a must. The music is just the right tempo and sets a good mood for the game play. Pay close attention to the path you are on because the background is designed to distract you from the obstacles. Great fun, awesome game.
I love the color scheme and plot of this one. The graphics are high quality and best of all it dosent freeze my phone like a lot of the other games out there.

The lack of multitouch on the controls make this game extremely tedious and straight up not fun.
