Pretty cool

I like it-though it would be nice to have some other bombers in the sky too. Not too fun getting ganged up on. Maybe after so many points you can "buy" some help. Another plane, or some fighter escort? Maybe even different bombers? B-24, British Lancaster?

Other than that, my only complaint is that the plane flies kinda slow.

Edit: it's now august 2011-any plans for an update? I hope so!

Edit#2: it's now June 2012. Still waiting for an update. If there are no plans for one, could you at least tell us??

worth buying

great take on the classic top-down flight shooter. slow it may seem, but that's what bombing runs are all about - patience. historic missions and crew losses / aircraft damage add additional fun. wish there were versions for other bombers. lags a bit on my 3GS.

SOOOOO SSSSLLLLOOOOWWWWW

I like this game, but it is very slow both in the game play and in operation. Great graphics compared to others out there, but there are no upgrades to anything. Weapons, planes, machine guns... give me something! Still played it to the end in a couple days though...

Repetitive

Rather slow and a bit disappointing.

Slow game with little action

I'm surprised by all the high ratings as the sounds, animation and action are all really basic and unimpressive. Basically there's 2-3 minutes of slowly droning along and following a few attacking planes with your finger (which is hard for me because my fingers are not transparent) and then you push the bomb button a bit and then back to droning and touching planes. It has some neat ideas and nice screenshots but seems like they ran out of money before they found the fun.

Rocks

Very realistic feels cool but could you put where there are more planes in the sky and make it were i can get different planes of my choice on that level oh and 27 out of 30 of my friends said they would most likely get this app if you do that so if you want more money you might want to do that also the planes are a little slow

Great game

I really like this game and layout. Think it could be improved with a few additional features:

โ€ข The ability to fly the plane in any direction and to make additional bomb runs on the target as required.

โ€ขThe ability to abort the mission and return to base for repair.

โ€ขHave a formation of supporting bombers.

โ€ขThe ability to be the defending fighters attacking the bomber.

โ€ขHave the ability to abandon the crippled aircraft and save some troops.

With the additions I think this game will be awesome!!!

The game

The game has a great concept but 3 big problems when ur engine takes damage it makes the game slower 2 there needs to be more bombers on screen a few below a few above 3 more flack lots more

Slow

Game play so slow it almost stops, if plane went faster game would be good, needs update, make plane fly faster not snail pace

Cool

Game is great, just waiting for an new update.
