8 of 15this is a great game, love the graphics and gameplay. however, what really frustrates me is when i get to the end and defeat risky’s boat, my game boots me off and i cant fight the finale boss fight. im stuck here and its really tedious having to navigate through the dark maze and defeat the 2nd to last boss fight before it completely shuts down. is there any way to fix this?
I really like the game and I would recommend it, but I ran into a bug at the Hypno barons place at that puzzle where you have to have two of those eye things looking down while the other two have to be looking up, I completed the puzzle but I ran into a bug where the door won’t open, I don’t know if it’s different for player to player since I was using a walk-through as I was really new, but I’m really confused as to why the door is bugging. I’ve tried everything I can to fix it but nothings working
Fun game marred by frequent crashes and sometimes frustrating touch controls. Unable to complete game due to it always crashing once you get to final boss.
Why does my game keep crashing when im about to fight the doppelgänger? You cant save progress by that point so thats really annoying.
Hi wayforward once again (am a HUGE fan I even want to work there some time) and so Shantae is my favorite series I can’t stop playing,watching and listing to the music of Shantae I just wish that all the games where on iOS for $2.00 includes Shantae,Shantae and the pirates curse and half genie hero I just can’t stop Shantae I don’t want it to end and mabe in a few years I’ll help you and join your company,wayforward technology’s inc.
I love this game I completed this game on the DSiWare version on the 3DS and I got the iOS version in 2021 when I updated my iPhone to iOS 16 it was working until I updated my iPhone today and now the game started crashing whenever I open the app. Can you update the app so then it won’t crash on the newer iOS software?
I love the game but every time I get the final boss it glitches and kicks me off the game. I thought if I collected all the items it would stop but it still keeps on glitching me out of the game
Nothing left to say but can you please make the rest of them available here? Eg. seven sirens i will purchase it, but screw the apple subscription crap!!! So please!! Ps Wayforward you do great work! Love Your work on the re-imagined a boy and his blob, also soo good!
