Me and my friend were playing this game just now. And we encountered a seris of glithes in the floating islands.
1.Cynder(me) was stuck to the ground and couldn't move.
2. When I freed myslef, Spyro(my friend) got stuck in mid-air and I was spinning out of control at top speed.
3.When the screen returned after lighting a tourch, the camera was under the map and it grew darker.
4. I lost control of my character AGAIN and i only could move very slowly. when i was in the air, Cynder dived forward at top speed but was stopped by Spyro every time.
5.Now SPYRO(my friend) was stuck to the ground and couldn''t move. I could not free Spyro. We had to got to the armor section and deselect all are armor.
6.We were refueling on magic and health when Spyro slipped behind a brick wall! The camera kept swicthing to my side and my friend's side as Spyro was rubbed against the wall.

Iam starting to wonder how fast they made this game.

P.S. I love the game, because you can play as spyro AND cynder. I only hate the stupid evil chain that they're connected to! I think it kind of ruins the game...
