### 1/5 — It’s unplayable without remote

*2026-01-31*

I thought this has controller support being played in landscape. It feels so clunky with bigger screen than your either swiping the whole screen

### 1/5 — Kein Controller Support

*2026-01-29*

Leider hat das Spiel keinen Controller Support, nachreichen bitte ,dann gibt es auch 5 Sterne.

### 1/5 — too bad

*2024-11-27*

Why aren't more languages supported in the game? How can players who do not understand foreign languages experience the storyline of your game due to language barriers? Perhaps you cannot create languages from hundreds of countries, but should you learn common languages? Especially the languages of countries with large populations, this is terrible

### 4/5 — Good game but boss health makes no seance

*2022-07-30*

It’s a good game I have it on Xbox too but only one thing needs to be fixed the boss health bar has no number for max hp and how  much it has left and the problem right now is I can get bosses to low enough hp that is says it has 0 hp left but still has hp.

### 3/5 — Kind of frustrating

*2021-02-01*

Hard to play because on this game u can’t rotate the screen to play, that’s why enemies are too close

### 2/5 — Could be best

*2020-12-05, version 1.0.13*

Could be better that’s all

### 4/5 — Very Fun and Well Polished Shmup

*2020-08-09*

I came across this game and just like sinemura it is very polished and fun/challenging gameplay. This is definitely worth the money and congrats to the developers for doing such an awesome job, the only reason I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because I play on the iPad Pro and I can’t get the controller to work during gameplay, if it had controller support it would definitely be five stars for me. Is controller support going to be added for the iPad Pro in a future update?

### 2/5 — Boss fights

*2020-05-19*

I wanted to like this game, but some of the boss fights are too long, repetitive, and frustrating, even on normal difficulty. The story is fun but not worth all the work.

### 1/5 — Low FPS

*2020-05-08*

Игра жутко тормозит на iPad air2 против боссов играть не возможно

### 5/5 — Sorry

*2020-04-15*

Thanks, I didn’t notice the auto fire.  about complexity - it’s just that the mobile version of the game is more difficult because of the finger blocking part of the screen.

**Developer response:** Hey there,
shooting should be a toggle, so if you just click it once it will toggle to perma-shooting! 
The "normal" difficulty is our "easy" difficulty and the lowest difficulty you can set this game on. We probably won't change that anymore.
Kind regards,
HG-Support
