Great when it works, but crashes a lot.
I've been playing in this series since I got the iPod touch second generation and have been a huge fan since then. Now I try to play it on my iPhone 6+ and it works, as long as it can get past the Game Center log in every time I open the app. Nine times out of ten, as soon as the little banner comes down from the top of the screen, the app crashes back to home screen. Once I can manage to get through that, I can usually get a good few minutes before it crashes again. The app needs an update for the newer software. This is the only problem I have found while trying to play. Fix it and I would give it five stars as it should have.
Edit: It does work now! Thank you!

Long time devs.
Good old games that keep getting updated to this day. Quite impressive! Most other games from this time donโt exist on the store anymore.
Potential but broken
Purchased based on strong recommendation. Second time loading, app crashes within seconds. Very disappointed.

Response from developer
Weโve finally come back to maintain our old games! Hopefully your crash bug has been fixed, let us know if it still happens for you.
Great update!
Intense space shooter with lovely neon graphics. An impressive update to the best shmup on the iPhone.
YEEEAAH!
Making steps towards greatness! Eternally stupendous!
Unique? No. Entertaining? Hardly.
This is a perfect example of why I avoid buying games without a trial or free version to preview it. The game got boring after about 10 minutes. It's not horrible, but it's not particularly unique or imaginative.
Good game, awkward controls
This is a stylish game that plays pretty well... Except the main distinguishing element of the game - its control scheme - is unintuitive and uncomfortable. Rotating the tablet 360' to direct the main line of fire is awkward. Pressing to divide fire to other directions makes it even worse. I appreciate the novelty in deign, but don't enjoy the challenge of wrestling with a control scheme, so I'm not playing this one any more.

Amazing
Wow. I have only 1 word to describe this game. INCREDIBLE. With the description and screenshots, the game doesn't look like much, maybe something like spawn glow. The thing that convinced me 2 get it was the plethora of positive reviews. I don't think I saw one below three stars. Those guys don't lie. Great game, great game. The only drawback is that the controls are a little hard 2 master.

It's great, but...
Great game and addictive... But it's definitely a .99 app though 1.99 isn't a deal breaker.
Hopefully it gets updates? Some new stuff or monsters every once in a while?
Lastly, how many people actually play this? I use to be 6 globally, now 19, but that doesn't really help if globally only 159 people play.

Rubbish
Overpriced, poor controls and poor concept.
Outstanding follow-up to an early classic
This takes the gameplay from the original game & turns them all the way up to 11.
Having the ability to split your firing adds quite the tactical element as the action heats up.
Strongly recommended!

Fantastic, fast, furious action
Simple to pick up and play for a few minutes, but to get far you must practice hard and learn your enemies.
Great game!
Enjoyable. Visually pleasing. I'm not complaining, but this could be a 99 cent app.
This game is just plain fun
so fun and really good looking game that is simple to play and easy to get addicted to.
Great Game
This is such a wonderfully game. The dark background / glowing content is relaxing and pleasant to interact with. Its easy to play for just a few minutes while you're bored, and its just as easy to not notice your 2 minute break turned into half an hour (break's not over till I die!)
Having a single version that works on both iPhone and iPad is a welcome change as well from the many developers who like to double charge people for the same app. Will keep an eye out for anything else you guys develop!

Fun Gameplay
Nine variant missions with multiple levels in each one make for hours of potential gameplay, but expect burnout before you have mastered the game.
The tilt controls are a bit awkward particularly when it is necessary to rotate around 180 degrees. Some of the scoring is odd...such as keeping "breeding enemies" alive to run up your score. Despite these negatives, the controls and the game itself is well executed.

Awesome Game
This is by far one the best games I've downloaded. I haven't put it down since I bought it and that was hours ago. Absolutely the best game for $1.99 (the developers could probably get a good $5 for this). Highly recommended.
sooooo good!!
just downloaded this game but what a thrill!!
simple graphics but oh so entertaining.
you won't be dissapointed

so good... so hard
This is a great game. So hard. Reminded me of the good old contra games...friggn impossible! But, it's just so enjoyable at the same time! Get it.
