Can't believe this game is still around
Bought this game back when I got my first Gen iPod touch. Can't believe this game is still around. Still fun!
Still a great game
This game was my favorite back when I got my first iPod touch many years ago. It warms my heart to see it’s still around and still works on my new phone.
The update worked
I love this game. I’ve been playing since the original release. I had the iPhone 3G at that time (2008). I now have the iPhone XS Max in 2019. There was an app update on 3/22/19 and it kept crashing. I deleted it and re-downloaded the app. It works great again.
Update Didn't Fix It
I’ve had this game since my first iPhone 3G in 2010 and it’s always been one of my favorites. However, I haven’t been able to play this game in several years because of incompatibility with modern iOS. Suddenly, and update comes from the developer several days ago, in 2019, claiming to bring compatibility to the game with modern phones, however the game still does not launch. I thought the developer had stopped working on the game, however that doesn’t seem to be the case, although, whatever compatibility tweaks were incorporated in the latest update were not implemented correctly.

Superb!
An amazing update! Great to see this. Still a most excellent smoothly animated shooty, maybe the ultimate arcade shmup on the iPhone. Worth buying an iPhone just to play this.
Not quite optimized
I used to play this game all the time in 2010. A dated game, but a solid one nonetheless. This update is filled with sloppy optimizations, including, but not limited to improper formatting for iPhone 5 in many levels and multiple HUDs after levels requiring reorientation of the screen. Needs fixing
Nice game
Simple controls, nice sense of being in space due to level rotations.
This game is a blast
This is by far one of my favorite games in the app store. It is challenging and a lot of fun.
Not bad
I don't really enjoy the gameplay but there's nothing wrong with the game, could use Game Center but it doesn't look like the game is updated anymore so I won't hold my breathe or keep the game on my iDevice.
Great game
Saved me from boredom for over 2 years now. Very much a 'keeper' on your iPod/iPhone for an extended period of time.
Lots of fun!
I love how you have to hold your phone in all the different directions.
The best, keep coming back
Not much to be said that hasn't already been said. An excellent game, great arcade fun. Smooth and beautiful graphics. I can't stop playing it and it is the only game that I have had installed since I got my iPod touch. A fantastic deal for 99 cents. Can't wait to play it some more, only stopped playing because I wanted to spread the fun that is blue defense.

Yea
Like the game known bout it for years just never downloaded till now
Grrr
It always erases my medals!!!
Immersive!
This game fantastic! The style and music go together perfectly. The only thing I dislike are the menus. For such a stylish game it has a simple and bland layout.
Smooth controls -- won't save medals
Maybe I'm the only person with this problem, but quitting the game causes it to lose my medals.
Good Game, Tricky Mechanic
This is a great piece of software. It's well designed and executed, looks lovely and sounds fantastic. The gameplay mechanic, however? It may not be for everyone. In fact, I'll go so far as to say you're either gonna love it or hate it. I just wish there was an option to reverse the controls. But don't be fooled: this is a quality game. It's just very demanding of how you play it.

Time waster
Great for long and short plays. You look kinda silly in public though lol
Great.
Buttery control, fantastic use of accelerometer, beautiful and distictive graphics, neo-classic design, quality sound and music---all are here in one must-have shooter. Even your life bar is shown as your planet population, adding weight to a simple concept.
After just discovering Kooistra, I bought all three of his amazing titles. All are top-drawer. I hope indie development like this continues. Great job, John. I'm an instant fan.

Simple but addictive
An elegant little game: Easy to start, visually captivating, hard to advance in, with soothing music as nice background to a life-or-death struggle of a whole planet.
