### 5/5 — Great Game

*2017-01-20, version 10*

I have both versions of this game. The PC version and this version. I would recommend this game for people that need to waste some time or are bored. Just try it and you might like it. :D

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2016-07-29, version 2.0*

A great game with an awesome soundtrack! The game may break the first time you start it up, but after a quick restart of the app it works fine!

### 5/5 — 5/5

*2016-07-13, version 2.0*

5/5 better on Steam though.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2016-04-24, version 2.0*

This is a fantastic game, but for some reason I can no longer post to the leaderboard. Also the heat seeking weapon often does not work. Please fix.

### 5/5 — Bit blaster rocks

*2016-03-22, version 1.1*

Great game!!

### 4/5 — Game's great n' all, but!

*2016-03-12, version 1.1*

Okay so we got our classic 8 bit blaster, no big details further from that, it's definitely a fun game to work with. Just easy ways to pass time every once in a while, no harm.

Although the unlockables is really short lasted as there's only very little to unlock. No challenges or anything, which is understandable since there's no huge goals to go for and I like it!

But as there's a game, there is some bugs that still continue needing to be fixed. I've only found probably two or just one.

One being the heat seeking shots (Orange H), you would expect it to last all up until you run out of ammo like usual, right? But sometimes it just last for a short time then just suddenly vanish. Especially if you aim at the same thing as the heat seeker. Or sometimes it just doesn't activate at all aside of giving ammo.

Then the shield is strange too, sometimes it would give one less of what it usually gives, especially the ship with 4 chances. You can count how many times you get hit during a run, at the very start I tested it if it had 4 chances and it did but overtime ingame it would drop a chance out of nowhere. I'm not sure if I'm not paying attention or this is some kind of weird bug

Overall the game's just fine with everything else.

### 5/5 — Easy to play, Hard to master

*2016-01-23, version 1.1*

When I downloaded this game I wasn't expecting much, I thought it might offer me five or so minutes of entertainment before I'd be over it, boy was I wrong. So far I've spent upwards of 2 hours blasting away at asteroids and space ships (although you wouldn't know it as I die pretty easily!) and I still feel the urge to keep playing! I think one of my favourite aspects of this game is that I can advance through it without having to spend any of my real world money, which is a breath of fresh air as most of the current top apps are nothing more than cleverly disguised wallet drainers hiding behind the idea that they're a "free" game . Anyway if your looking for a game to kill time with while waiting for an appointment or to play during an add on TV, then I sincerely urge you to download this game and have a crack it's fun, simple and addictive 5/5.

### 5/5 — Great fun, very addictive.

*2016-01-23, version 1.1*

This game is great fun to play, has a very 80s arcade vibe to it. It's good for quick games, which unfortunately turn into one more, and then one more, and so on.. :D

### 5/5 — Reddit hug

*2016-01-22, version 1.1*

Saw the game on reddit.  I really like it.  It's a perfect game for when you are waiting to drop the kids off at the pool.  Great job

### 5/5 — Really good fun

*2016-01-22, version 1.1*

Everything you love about those classic arcade shoot-em ups optimised perfectly for mobile. A lot of fun to play, with plenty of power ups and ships to keep you entertained.

### 1/5 — Paint Drying Simulator 2017

*2017-01-18, version 10*

Worth every penny.

### 1/5 — Not Responsive

*2016-08-30, version 2.0*

I ran this game on my 6S Plus, and it's not responsive whatsoever. Either DEVS take notice of this and fix it, or just don't bother downloading this game.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work at all

*2016-06-19, version 2.0*

I touch the screen and nothing happens.  The objects crosses the screen as if nothing

### 3/5 — Mükemmel

*2019-11-18, version 10*

Vakit geçirmek için çok iyi.  Oyun gayet hoş.

### 3/5 — Battery Life

*2016-04-14, version 1.1*

This game spends so much battery i just played it for 2 minutes and %4 battery s gone...

### 4/5 — Bit Blaster

*2020-05-05, version 10*

I love this game and really wanted to give it five stars, BUT, the darn rocket-launching ships are so many and so accurate that they take a lot of the fun out of the game. I haven’t been able to get anywhere in two weeks!  😓😭 Do you have a version for old ladies???

### 4/5 — Harder than it looks

*2019-07-27, version 10*

I got this game because I have Ding Dzongkha XL in my Switch and this looked fun. It’s way harder to steer than I expected. Good time waster. I’d like to see where this Devolver will go next, his high score chasers are fun! I’d love to see these games on more platforms like the Switcg too!

### 4/5 — Great game

*2018-04-25, version 10*

I havi it on phone and pc. But the music won't play on my phone plz help. Also a horizontal mode would be nice.

### 4/5 — Sweet Little Game

*2016-09-05, version 2.0*

I wish there was an option to pay money to disable ads.

### 4/5 — Needs an upgrade

*2016-08-24, version 2.0*

I have 30 hours in bit blaster on the Steam version, and I can tell you that the phone port and the pc version are really different.

A couple of suggestions: 

Remove the ad that is situated on the bottom of the screen during gameplay.

Have a horizontal mode.

I appreciate that the game is free though, and I hope Nick updates the game to resembles it's pc roots.

### 5/5 — good

*2026-03-12, version 10*

good

### 5/5 — 10/10

*2024-06-18, version 10*

Best game ever

### 5/5 — Superb

*2023-07-17, version 10*

Mind you, it’s no PooshXL, as made famous by Twitch sensation @8BitDee, but I’ll tell you what: of all the mobile shooter games out there, this sure is One of them!!

### 5/5 — Stellar Game Hahahahahahahahah

*2023-05-09*

Pretty fun! Again, the gameplay is simple, and annoying, yet somehow calming and fun to have around.. not unlike the developer.

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2018-12-23, version 10*

I have both games, this one and the other one on pc and they are both amazing and should deserve more attention.

### 5/5 — Game is really good but

*2018-09-06, version 10*

If you added an option to change the controls by adding a virtual joystick (for slow and fast) and adding a additional button for firing  (like the pc one). The game would be even more fun if you add these

### 5/5 — Excellent game

*2017-10-20, version 10*

Simple design that allows for rapid replays and always trying for new high scores. It’s fun for 30 seconds or 30 minutes. Works great on mobile!

### 5/5 — Awesome Game 🕹

*2017-05-04, version 10*

Fun to play. The boundaries are the screen size. The power ups are really cool. 🚀 The best ship is really worthwhile to keep playing for.

### 5/5 — Fun

*2017-02-07, version 10*

Soooooo much fun

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2017-01-27, version 10*

I own this game on steam and have 50 hours of just playing with friends on weekends with the steam controller. This game is so good with a controller so if you have .99 cents on steam I recommend this game for everyone.
