P1 Select might be my favorite game from Michael Brough. Other candidates: 868-HACK and Zaga-33, which unfortunately has not been ported to 64-bit and cannot be played on modern iOS devices. P1 was frustrating for me until I looked at a guide for less than a minute, then it clicked. The dense, alien UI becomes intuitive and obvious but won’t be at first. Whether you figure it out without help, read all of a guide, or just peek at some help to get an initial boost, it’s important to note P1 has a steep initial curve. There’s no tutorial included. Advice for Brough: This is a hurdle likely keeping some away. Maybe? Gaming aesthetic/philosophy vs. more mainstream access. ...Discuss.

I’ve spent so much time on Brough’s games, they’re all fantastic! Just a quick control suggestion, do you think you could make it so when you attack instead of swiping with both fingers you only swipe with one finger, with the other finger staying still (but still pressing the screen), it’s just a bit easier to do.

5 stars for a really unique puzzle like element added onto the traditional 2d roguelike. Also extra points for having a click to do combat mode, like seriously good job, not that many people put that much consideration into their games on here

This game is initially a bit harder to get into, but quickly becomes rich and addictive, all in a small package. If you like his other games, you’ll be into this:)
