### 5/5 — Love it

*2024-11-26*

I love this simple, but fantastic game!

### 5/5 — Amazing experience!!!

*2024-04-22*

Just a little taste of what the AVP is capable of.

### 5/5 — Sound & Guns please

*2024-03-26*

Need sound asap. Also, would be super cool if it had guns

### 2/5 — Too quick to monetize a rather good idea

*2024-03-25*

Why ruining a good idea just to monetize off people on AVP who are looking for content. This should not be approved to be released yet. It’s a great idea with good foundation. Helicopter feels right. Textures are well done but that is pretty much all you get for $4. No sound, no pilot in the cockpit and nothing to do. One helicopter and that’s it. I’m going to ask for a refund and wait until the developer becomes serious about developing a complete product not just a validation of a concept that we have now. Sad to see people just trying to monetize off early adopters like me. It’s a bad and short term strategy that is only going to damage the platform and developers.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your views. I wanted to let you know that the app has now been updated with sound and missiles. Version 1.3.

### 5/5 — Absolutely amazing

*2024-03-25*

This is such a cool demonstration of what this product can do. Very nice work! Can’t wait to see what’s coming in updates!

### 5/5 — Incredibly fun app!

*2024-03-24*

I am blown away with how fun this is to play! I was just outside experimenting with this and it works perfectly with a PlayStation controller!
