Childhood dreams

I’ve been playing this for years now on the app, normally when I’m sitting on an aeroplane so probably four or five times a year,
I guess it’s aimed at the people that used to play it in their youth, it’s thoroughly enjoyable and brings back lots of childhood memories,
If you can remember this game, it’s definitely worth downloading,
My only criticism would be that the shield can be activated somehow at Will like the real thing,
Perhaps this is something that could be sorted out, please,

Thx

Random shield bug

Hey. Thanks for taking my cash and then make a game that randomly throws a shield on me freezing me without any input from me…good job

Cool but is this an actual arcade game?

This game has ZERO bugs and is really hard! Witch makes me want to destroy the aliens even more! Also I still do not know if this is an original arcade game or a made up game based on Galaga or space invaders or something. Please respond because I am really curious. If the game is not an actual arcade game in real life how about thinking about making arcade games if it! This will get you a LOT of money to make a arcade machine. People seem to be more into 1980 games these days at arcades. Maybe even talk to the arcade 1 up company and ask to make a Phenix
Arcade machine so that more people can get more into these old games! I do not want 1980 games to be gone and not played anymore.

Please respond!

Rubbish. Doesn’t work.

Scrawling control is completely non-operational 90% of the time. Can’t move the ship sit there like a sitting duck waiting to be shot. I’m astonished that anyone has the nerve to take money from people for something that simply doesn’t work. Avoid avoid avoid.

Awful joystick

Superb coin game from my childhood but I want my money back, how dare you selling this game with awful joystick sod? The shooting red spaceship stops repeatedly and gets blasted by dropping explosive bombs, you are unable to defeat the empire

Controls terrible, such a shame otherwise good conversion…don’t bug unless controls are fixed.. Shame. 🤦🏻‍♂️👍🏼

Lags a lot

Glitchy and lags. I paid 1.99 for what, I do not like that I can't start where I left off if etc.etc. it would s not even worth free!
Can't see the controls and laggy! Fix the it please

Unplayable controls

Lovely to see this vintage game here. But sadly, it's pretty much unplayable, as the touch controls on an iPhone (or iPad) just don't work properly. Clearly they had to be adapted to a touch screen from the original game's button and joystick combination, and they haven't been thought out sufficiently. You end up activating the shield when you want to move, or not moving at all.

And the joystick graphic that appears when you're trying to move is bigger than the ship you're controlling - incredibly distracting.

Shame, but this isn't a viable game.

Game boy

A blast from the past. I would rather have this on my iPad then nothing. Good effort

Love It !

This takes me back !
I grew up playing this game on the original arcade machine. T happy that there’s a legit smartphone version finally. Been waiting for so long.

I can’t give this app 4 stars because phoenix is the coolest game, but if there were some basic settings for especially the left hand sensitivity/speed control, that would be cool, since sometimes I feel it doesn’t move the way I move my left thumb… some additional settings would be much appreciated !!!

Long live the 80s
