### 4/5 — Suggestions

*2026-07-16, version 1.0.13*

I absolutely love this game and am hoping it does get updated in the future, however i think the game should have ways to let you play the game entirely without paying, such as:
Rest of tier 1: unlocked at rank 10
Tier 2: unlocked at rank 30
Tier 3: unlocked at rank 40
Tier 4: unlocked at rank 50
Tier 5: unlocked at rank 60
These could be higher or lower but please make it possible to grind them.
Also increase the reward per mission please.

Another suggestion is to allow us to choose what ratio of ordinance we bring with us (eg, 40% one type of bullet and 60% another type of bullet) instead of it just being a 50 50 split.

Also there seems to be a bug where some enemy planes will unload every rocket they have in seconds and will melt your airship in seconds, as well as some weapons like airship batteries having their projectiles spawn seriously misaligned from the cannon barrels and one of the airships seems to have a typo for the health as it shouldn’t have 850k health

### 3/5 — How to unlock t1 items

*2026-06-24, version 1.0.13*

How do I unlock more items when I unlock all one star items

### 2/5 — Pretty good

*2026-06-11, version 1.0.13*

You do have to pay IRL money to unlock tiers of stuff any higher than the most basic, it’s like one or two quid though so I don’t really mind and I wouldn’t say it subtracts from the game much. The gameplay is actually rather fun, even if the mission types get a bit repetitive after a while, it's a good thing to throw on every now and again. 

I do have one major complaint, however: Though the new tiers only cost a couple real life pounds, actually getting anything from those higher tiers after you’ve bought them is incredibly difficult. The price of higher tier items (not in real money, in... whatever the ingame currency is) is disproportionately high compared to the mission rewards. 

To the dev, am I doing something wrong? I can't quite tell if this is a balancing issue or just a me issue. I'd like some kind of clarification, please.

### 5/5 — Still a great game despite the lack of updates… though there are a few bugs…

*2026-06-05, version 1.0.13*

-primary turret projectile/bullet on the AH-27 is off centered
-armor recovery perk does not function

This may go unnoticed due to the probability that the game is abandoned

### 3/5 — 2yr since last update is wild

*2026-05-21, version 1.0.13*

Still fun but would love an update

### 1/5 — Ahhhhhhhhhhh!

*2026-05-13, version 1.0.13*

Why do you have to pay for everything?

### 1/5 — How do I play

*2026-02-06, version 1.0.13*

I cannot buy plane, or start a game.

### 5/5 — Por que esta tan entretenido

*2026-02-04, version 1.0.13*

Este fue el mejor juego en calidad de dirigibles y a mi que me apasionan los dirigibles

Buen trabajo!
