Re: [Audyssey] Moderator Notice was Audyssey Magazine
If you have to say something about something like this there are ways of making these opinions be heard in an intelligible way.

Re: [Audyssey] Papa Sangre II Controls Hanging
What is swipe mode? How does it work? How does one switch to the other mood, whatever that is? On 11/6/2013 3:02 AM, Chris wrote: hi, yes i have noticed this problem also. I have also noticed that i can't seem to change to swipe mode either. I am using the iphone 5s 32gb. i have lots of spare memmary so it can't be a memmary issue.

Re: [Audyssey] Papa Sangre II Controls Hanging
Hi, are you turning Vie Over off and on before the game loads? I discovered that if you wait until it loads before turning it on and off it will work fine.

Re: [Audyssey] Moderator Notice was Audyssey Magazine
hmm, this reminds me of a post I started on Audio Games.net though it sounds like both set of insults were both targeted at the blind community.
