GenZD 12+

Amazing

This is everything I ever wanted. I never expected this to actually happen, thanks. I really appreciate the full controller support. But there’s a couple problems and it’s that 1, the controller camera movement is a bit jittery, and 2, there’s no underscore key, so I can’t enter commands properly, and I can’t manually bind stuff that’s not in the options menu already. Please take this into consideration and fix these if you could.

Developer Response ,

Thanks for your comments! The controller support should be fixed with the recent updates. The virtual keyboard is indeed in need of some love and I'll be looking to improve this later.

Promising Start

Being able to run GZDoom on iOS has been a longtime dream of mine, and it's finally here! What's here is already promising, but it's definitely missing key features, and other things definitely need tuning.
-aiming with a touchscreen feels less like a mouse and more like touch input being translated to controller stick input that's then being given to the game. It DOES NOT feel good whatsoever, and if you have a background with other touchscreen FPS games, it's gonna feel especially bad.
-as another reviewer pointed out, not being able to have generic buttons that can be used for mod specific bindings is also an issue, along with the fact you can't actually resize any of the buttons, nor control their transparency independent of each other. Being able to mess around with the top buttons as well would also be nice. (Having a separate button that pulls them all out and hides them would be a nice addition as well)

Those are the things that stuck out the most to me, but as an enjoyer of doom's community modding scene and mobile gaming, this is a HUGE blessing.

Thanks for making this, and good luck on your future endeavors!

Thank you!

Update2: love the iPad support and additional enhancements. This continues to be a steal at this price!

A suggestion - iOS 18 includes ‘game mode’ that works similar to the Mac’s ‘game mode’. From what I read you have to classify your app as a ‘game’ versus something like ‘entertainment’. I am not sure how easy it is to change this or if it creates havoc with the app approval process. But it might be worth looking into. Otherwise, great job!
