I'm pleased to announce that Build 'n Bump has been officially tested and approved for Remote Play on Phone! Make sure to use the official touch controls configuration, which best optimizes the gamepad button sizes and layout.

Note that the touch controls remove the Y button, so you won't be able to manage saved levels while on a mobile device. Less emphasis is also placed on the X and LB (shoulder) buttons, because these are only used when building a level.

Remote Play is especially exciting for Build 'n Bump, though, because it facilitates local co-op for those who don't have a gamepad. One or two players can continue to use the keyboard on the main computer, and everyone else can simulate a gamepad on their mobile device. Perfect for that elusive "Mr. Popular" achievement!
