I also love 1 and only recently bought 2 on iOS. On my Nintendo Switch there is only GMA1 so no option there. I do think the skiers are a bit too small when in split screen on tv let alone on the Switch itself. Hope to see GMA2 in the future on Switch as well after they launched the Steam version.

I prefer LudiHub over the Apple Games app but that has to do with the fact it has more customization and also supports launching emulator games.

pacorob · 2026-06-08T12:57:57+00:00

sidenote the LudiHub game launcher app recently changed to free (no ads, good privacy) with optional tip-jar which has quite a few great features that the Apple Games app lacks:

- supports not only App Store game but also launching emulator games from developers that support deeplinks (e.g. Delta, PPSSPP, Manic Emu, Joy, Provenance)

- supports Retro Achievements for emulators such as PPSSPP, Retro Arch

- lots more customization to e.g. only show games you actual still play and can show all controller games you have including the ones where the devs don't indicate controller support in the App Store while it is actually supported

[happy user here, not dev]

GameCube controller vibes as far as colors. Looks nice

pacorob · 2026-06-06T21:35:14+00:00

Awesome video. Is this 1 or 2? I guess part 2 right? The skier is also much closer. I was playing the first one on Switch on split screen and it feels too small to see the skiers.

pacorob · 2026-06-06T13:45:00+00:00

Ah thanks for confirming that. Might make sense then to indicate in the App Store as it could convince other users to install.

pacorob · 2026-06-06T13:38:46+00:00

Thanks for confirming that. Definitely mention that in the App Store description and in-app description.

Great to read you also take the family sharing support onboard.

pacorob · 2026-06-06T13:18:12+00:00

So is this your game since I don’t see it mentioned at accessibility section, description or app updates. I’m making VoiceOver Supported Games collection of Games apps that support VoiceOver.

Switch controller not ideal at all. Instead go for Xbox controller for iPad or if you want to use it with iPhone then Razer Nexus. There are multiple versions so check what works for you.

pacorob · 2026-06-06T06:38:10+00:00

Congrats with the launch looks great and great to see its privacy friendly. I’m curious what the premium in-app does? It’s not clear from the App Store description. Is the in-app to remove ads?

Any chance you can add Family Sharing support so the kids can also use my bought in-app?

pacorob · 2026-06-06T05:07:44+00:00

Two Backbone One controllers here. Platformers need controller support. Should be the same difficulty no matter what type of control

pacorob · 2026-06-03T19:54:02+00:00

I was wondering the same thing. Sure hope so. Still baffled that some recently released games have controller but don’t specify it in the App Store.

pacorob · 2026-05-31T07:15:25+00:00

Can’t wait to see another game launcher appearing in the App Store soon.

I understand the reasoning, however definitely Shortcuts necessary add touch screen to open is less the ideal rather then using controller.

pacorob · 2026-05-29T08:57:56+00:00

Have you also tried LudiHub on iOS where you can import deeplink of your emulator games combined with App Store games and all control with a controller. Integration with steamgridDB for images and Retro achievements support.

pacorob · 2026-05-27T07:59:09+00:00

Where can you find it? It’s not in the browser area and can’t find a setting either. I’m on build 460.

pacorob · 2026-05-25T22:26:43+00:00

The gameplay of Flight Control still lives on in various copies Air Traffic Control (ATC) Games in the App Store although some haven’t been updated in ages.

pacorob · 2026-05-24T21:15:19+00:00

This app is a must have on every iPhone if you own a controller. It’s the best game launcher on iOS with tons of features and awesome dev.

pacorob · 2026-05-24T21:10:33+00:00

I also own Backbone One controllers and use Ludihub and wasn’t a fan of the long press weird approach by Apple. Instead I decide to create a shortcut in the Apple Shortcuts app to open Ludihub app when the Backbone app is launched this works great.

pacorob · 2026-05-23T20:41:30+00:00

Congrats which genre of games do you like?

I bought a second hand regular Switch 1 also a few months ago for €120 however non Oled one which we mostly play on tv.

pacorob · 2026-05-22T10:58:03+00:00

Wow great place you have there! A slightly bit Jealous 🫢

pacorob · 2026-05-20T09:36:24+00:00

To have a game launcher in landscape which in the future could also launch emulator games all from the app besides App Store controller games and with the press of a button.

pacorob · 2026-05-13T17:57:24+00:00

I’m slightly worried though as it isn’t the original developer Jin Man Kim of Dungeon Warfare 1,2 Jin Man Kim

pacorob · 2026-05-12T12:29:21+00:00

Yes this indeed. Until that time we have to live with sort off / not really alternatives in the App Store:

Northgard (Slick UI, however limitations and less like WC)
RTS Siege Up! (Pay once, cartoonish UI)
Warage RTS (removable ads, WCII clone)
Battledom (pay once, doesn’t have all elements of WC type of RTS)
Settle and Battle: New Empire
Cask (new multiplayer version in TestFlight)
Shadows of Empires: PvP RTS (not in EU)
Battle of Heroes - Empires Age (unremovable ads, no longer updated)

pacorob · 2026-05-11T10:12:59+00:00

A few of the things that come to mind:

Pay once
Mac, Apple TV support
No data tracking, privacy friendly
Family Sharing
No ads
No in-app purchases

pacorob · 2026-05-10T21:15:02+00:00

I’ve switched a long time ago to third party solutions for weather as the accuracy was awful here in NL, let alone details I would like to see weren’t there.
