Pretty Neto game

I really enjoy the games simple but complex design, I have had the game since the pre-order was up and then it released and I downloaded it right then and there. I struggled to think level 20 and thought oh that’s the end, but then I played the other 10 levels and completed it. I definitely enjoy the the ability to combine different upgrade paths like sniper barrel with rocket, or vise versa with quad and sniper bullets, I don’t enjoy the cluster upgrades. I completed all levels with 3 stars as well as getting every up grade now I am hoping for an update with more levels considering the game has been out for 3 months now. Plz update. But otherwise this is a really great game that I can definitely see a future for if the dev picks the right upgrade path for it, and doesn’t cluster it up. Plz don’t turn this really good mobile indie game into a pay to play.
Edit: I realize this game probably became dead because all of the other reviews except for mine I guess are from February, and the most recent one said February 15, good game I guess it’s not gonna get updated or anything considering nothing has happened since release.
Second Edit: I hope the dev reads this but I doubt because it appears to be dead. Plz notice me

Fun game/ great music

Gameplay is good, sound design was impeccable 10/10

Fantastic, but....

This game is fantastic. Truly a fun game to play, and it’s nice to have a game you don’t have to purchase game currency with real money to continue in.
I love the layout and I can see the developer will continue to expand on the game itself as time goes on, however, there is a problem with the movement control registering. I have had so many moments where the movement controls don’t register on the ground for me to move my tank and I get shot down.

After this issue is fixed, the game absolutely deserves 5 stars.

Bad game

Continued review the ai follows you around and as you reload the ai shoots faster

Response from developer

I'm sorry to hear that you are not impressed with the AI. I would appreciate it if you could provide a more detailed description of what is wrong with it, so that I can work on improving it.

Thanks

I thought there were no other good game that I could find and then I saw this on the App Store and tried it and it was great.Thank you for responding to me! Keep up the good work!

Response from developer

I really appreciate the positive review, thanks for playing!

So many things wrong

Yeah, I get it, this game just came out yesterday, but the amount of bugs and things wrong are unacceptable, the hitboxes on the tanks are so messed up you can’t shoot them if they’re anywhere within a tank-length, the movement system is completely broken, and the game is so horribly optimized that the battery in my 2017 iPad Pro drained to 10% from 100 in less than 2 hours with the brightness all the way down, in airplane mode, and no other apps open. But this game has a lot of potential, especially if they give you the option to change the movement system to a joystick and let you shoot while moving

Edit: Changed my review to 4 stars because when I first posted this I was super salty, it’s really a great game, just needs a few kinks worked out, such as being able to shoot through walls and the movement system. I didn’t take into consideration all the work that went into this amazing looking game. Oh, and also you might want to change the amount of money you get after each level, I played level 30 maybe 10 times and unlocked pretty much every other upgrade I wanted.

Response from developer

Thank you for the constructive review and your interest in Blast! I have always planned on putting multiple control schemes in the game, however I couldn't get it done for the initial release. Unfortunately, it's actually a lot of work to do this, but you can definitely expect to see multiple control schemes in a future update. The games graphics quality changes per device, based on the info you have given me it appears that I may have set it to high for the 2017 iPad Pro. I will also look at fixing this in a future update. In the meantime you can enable power saving mode in the settings menu in the game. As for the bugs, please keep in mind that this was the first release and I am an indie developer. I am working on the game everyday, and hope to have them all resolved as soon as possible. Thanks Brandon

Great game

This game is good I know that there is a lot of bugs and the controls need work I understand that and how hard it is to make a game keep up the good work and I hope this game will succeed in the future 😎👍

Response from developer

I hope so too, thanks for the support!

Fun so far, but over all could use polish

I'm having a lot of fun with this game so far, but I've noticed some clipping & text related bugs.

Response from developer

I am glad to hear! Please could you supply some more info on the bugs so that I can work on fixing them.

Best game ever

Great graphics and all around fun game

Response from developer

Thank you for playing and for the review, it always gives me a great feeling when I hear that players are enjoying my games!

Good potential

The game design is good and all, my main problem with the game is the controls. I like the somewhat older graphics and the upgrading of the tank, but the controls are just so bad sometimes. I would prefer the control sticks on both sides, one for aiming/shooting, while the other is for driving. Good job on the game so far otherwise.

Response from developer

I am aware that this is a major issue sometimes. I am working on creating multiple control schemes and improving the tank movement. You can expect to see this in a future update. Thank you for the review.

Woah

This is really cool, it has in app stuff but it does not shove ads in your face. Really good.

Response from developer

Thank you for noticing! I made a point of not forcing any ads in my game, because I know that there's nothing that irritates players more than this.

Amazing game just needs fine tuning

To start. Amazing game overall, but it has some... a lot of glitches to name a few a glitch where walls are intangible portals dont work bullets dont do damage cant move... etc
But i really want a easier way to move and shoot. Like a joystick option. That said its a really cool game. 👍

Response from developer

I am aware that there are many bugs at the moment, please keep in mind that this is the first release and that I am an indie developer. I have been planning on creating multiple control schemes. Unfortunately I couldn't have this feature in the first release due to time constraints and other complications. I will be working on fixes for both of these issues in future updates.

Good Idea. Terrbile Mechanics

The game has good ideas and a nice customization system. The controls however are very bad and could be made better in so many ways. Adding a joystick for each the movement of the tank and the other for the direction of shooting would make this game a 4 for me. Add some joysticks and I'll re-download.

Response from developer

Thanks for the constructive review and your interest in Blast! I have always wanted to create multiple control schemes, although unfortunately it's not that easy, especially for an indie developer. I am sorry that this was a game breaker for you, but you can be assured that I am working on this and you can expect to see multiple control schemes in a future update. Thanks Brandon

100/100

This game is amazing! The graphics are pretty good for a game that was released like 1 week ago. The only problem is it is a bit laggy and it is hard to get B. Other than that it is a great game!

Response from developer

Thanks for the positive review and your interest in Blast! It is always extremely rewarding as a developer to see that players are enjoying my games and appreciating the hard work that I put into it. I am always working on the game and you can expect to see improvements in future updates. Thanks Brandon

Poor controls

Guys, Swiping and dragging does not work. Why isn't this on a double stick control system? Movement is insanely slow so you can't even begin to fire before getting shot at.

Response from developer

I am aware that this is a major issue, and it is currently at the top of my to do list. However, I am an indie developer and currently my hands are quite full. I can assure you that this will be fixed in a future update. I was actually hoping to have it fixed for the initial release yesterday, but like I said, I just couldn't get around to it.

It needs improvement

I love that it isn’t ad lettered but the controls are hard to use and the difficulty spike is real I want to give this game I higher rating but I can’t until the controls are fixed

Response from developer

Thank you for the constructive review and your interest in Blast! I am aware that the controls are a major issue, and fixing them has been at the top of my to do list for a long time. However I am an indie developer an currently have a lot on my hands at the moment, I was actually hoping to have fixed this by the initial release today but unfortunately couldn't. You can expect to see this issue resolved in a future update.

10/10

It's good stuff hey, congrats

Hot Fire

Very fun game!

Response from developer

Thanks for playing!

Looks amazing

Thanks for nice work

Response from developer

I am always glad to see players enjoying my games and appreciating the hard work that I put in. Thank you for the positive review, it will go a long way in improving Blast!

Awesome game and idea...

This game has a great concept and is very.... fun(?). The game is almost unplayable because the movement controls are terrible. It never responds how you want it to. It doesn’t move when you clearly drag it to just move a little behind cover. Please fix this, and this game would be more than perfect!
