This game is one hell of an technical achievement. Upon booting up the game, straight from the get-go, I could immediately tell that a lot of time, love and care went into this game to make sure that it's running at an top-notch frame-rate all of the time and looking absolutely gorgeous too, even on the main menu. If you take a look at that one 3-4 year old trailer of an very early build on this YouTube channel, it looks so very different. Comparing the two builds, you can clearly see that all of these awesome high-end graphics effects like Bloom, Ambient Occlusion and Lens Flare were added over time. It's an very well polished and hugely enjoyable title that's totally worth the small cost it's currently going for on the App Store. I'm looking forward to more titles being developed with the new and incredibly advanced Picon engine. It shows us all just how powerful the latest iOS devices like the iPad Air 2 and iPhone 6 really are.

The core of the game lies on the flying aspect, giving the player much more freedom then regular platformers.

We will be more specific about the control scheme in a later update! \u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E Calling Heroki a platformer alone doesn’t back up all of its features. For example; Heroki can return to his sky village “Levantia” at any point in the game to interact with the many citizens of Levantia and play many sidequests such as a treasure-hunt or use one of the many shops trading your collected coins for upgrades and bonuses. \u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E Heroki is going to be a big game with \u003Cspan style=\"color: #3d85c6;\"\u003E5 large worlds\u003C\/span\u003E to explore plus that of your own village.
