However today when i went back on i found i was on lv1 again. Wasnt a problem for me because i was still early into the game, however for people near the end of the game this would be reeeaaally bad. Cool gimmic though. ### 4/5 — Seriously good game but.. *2018-06-18* I think that you should add a little more like a main menu or customizing your character. This is honestly one of the best games I have. We need more games like this keep it up ✌🏼✌🏼 **Developer response:** Thanks! Look out for BotHeads 2, coming soon! ### 3/5 — Music *2017-09-28* The only reason I still play this game is because of the music. The game is ok but the music is on point. Much love to Boy vs Bacteria. **Developer response:** Nice! Boy vs Bacteria says Hello! :) ### 4/5 — FUN GAME BUT... *2017-09-02* I hate how you have to start over everytime you open the game I'm not really looking to starting over and over and over again. Besides that it's a fun game I like it but I have a couple of suggestions how about letting us use different characters that are different colors I'm not asking for additional or different abilities but just different colors besides that I really like this game. **Developer response:** You will be able to warp to later levels in an upcoming update! We'll see what we can do with different colors on the bots! Thanks for playing! ### 5/5 — What a great game! *2017-08-15* I'm genuinely impressed with this game. You can tell that a lot of thought has gone into the level design, the physics & the controls to make this really playable &, most importantly, fun right from the start. Five well deserved stars. **Developer response:** Thank you so much! ### 5/5 — Simple but heaps of fun *2017-08-05, version 1.03* I just downloaded this game and am already loving it. I think you should add some sort of customisation with the bots and add more of the moving obstacles (like the pac man). ### 5/5 — I reached 100%!! *2017-08-01* Please add more levels, or create a second version. The graphics in level 40 were amazing, add more of those! **Developer response:** Thanks for playing! Yes, we will use those graphics for something in the future :) ### 4/5 — Great game, one recommendation *2017-07-31* This is a great game with a very fun gameplay! But one recommendation that I have is that once you get hit once, you get momentarily invincibility, because I have the problem where when I get ounce it hits something else and I die. Still love the game! Just a thought of something you can add. Have a good day! **Developer response:** Thanks! That's actually a really good idea! ### 4/5 — Bewertung gelöscht *2017-07-29* Meine ausführliche Bewertung mit updates wurde gelöscht. Der Entwickler hat sogar auf die Bewertung geantwortet. Das Spiel ist ganz gut. Endlich mit Checkpoints. Kurzweiliges Spiel. Habe es in 18 Minuten komplett durch. 40 Minuten habe ich für den Rekord gebaucht (bin auf Platz 1). Könnte also mehr Level bzw. Welten geben. Die Werbung ist gerade noch so "ok". Ich finde es nur unmöglich, dass man mehrmals abwechselnd links und rechts auf die "X" drücken muss. Finde es ebenfalls seltsam, dass einige Sprungfedern einen sofort in den Tod katapultieren. ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2017-07-26* I wish this had seperate levels **Developer response:** We're thinking of adding ways to skip levels so you don't have to play them again! ### 4/5 — Reminds me of badlands *2017-07-24, version 1.03* It reminds me a lot of badlands the game (I think that's what it's called) and I never wanted to buy that on the Apple App Store vs it was free for android at one time. Good replica ### 4/5 — Meilleur jeux du monde!!! *2017-07-23* J'ai découvert se jeu il y a 2 semaines et j'y suis tomber accro, moi qui a du mal à accrocher des jeux et qui me laisse vite je suis surprise car je suis littéralement devenu fan les seul petits bémols sont la bus ( tout les 3/4 parti ) et le jeu qui se fini vite puisque je viens de la finir je pensais qu'une foie arriver à 100% il y avais un autre monde car arriver à 97.5% tout change ( décors etc...) quelle dommage. J'espère un 2 ou alors une mise à jours qui permet d'allez plus loin dans le jeu mais en tout cas je le recommande 1000 foie 👍🏽👌🏼🤙🏼 ### 5/5 — :0 *2017-07-19, version 1.03* This is the actual BEST mobile game I have ever downloaded in my entire life. Keep up the good work devs ;D ### 5/5 — おもしろい👍🏻 *2017-07-17, version 1.03* 自分のペースですすめるし、前の軌跡が出るのがヒントになるので一回できれば難しすぎずすすめることができる✨ ゲームオーバー後1からはじまるのがめんどくさく、時間がかかってしまうので、そのステージがクリアできたらステージ選べるようにしてほしいです。 ### 5/5 — Love this concept, great potential *2017-07-17* The rocket mechanics reminds me a lot of an XBLIG game called "blocks indie" but with the addition of platformer elements this game is a blast! honestly I have been trying to make a game something like this for about 2 years and this is very similar to what I envisioned the game to be, excellent work to the developer(s)!! **Developer response:** Thank you very much! Good luck with your game! ### 5/5 — VERY FUN GAME!!! *2017-07-17* Starts out easy then slowly becomes more difficult to maneuver around the obstacles. Sometimes hitting the springs is NOT the way to go. I always like to "explore" more. Give it a try! DOWNLOAD IT NOW!!! **Developer response:** Thanks! We're thinking of adding stuff that you can find while exploring as well :) ### 5/5 — Ya *2017-07-17* I found that there are a lot of cheap deaths and all but I got used to how it controls and got 100% without dieing that last level surprised me **Developer response:** Well played! The last level is a bit different :) ### 4/5 — I like but it could use some improvements *2017-07-16* I would like to see the little bright things used to buy things maybe like extra lives and or a different style BotHeads I still love the game though **Developer response:** You can buy continues now, it's like an extra life! But some kind of store would be cool :) Thanks for playing! ### 5/5 — Schöne App *2017-07-16* Nettes Spiel. Gefällt mir. Eine Sache geht mir aber nach: ich spiele oft Mars: Mars. Das Spiel hat eine sehr ähnliche Steuerung. Aber leider genau spiegelverkehrte Kontrollen (man steuert quasi die Düsen: rechte Düse steuert nach links). Da ich diese Steuerung gewöhnt bin, fällt mit die Umstellung sehr schwer... Bitte baut noch ein Option ein, um die Steuerung zu spiegeln. Danke! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Boring *2017-07-14, version 1.02* Worst game ever, so bad! ### 1/5 — Ripoff *2017-07-13, version 1.02* Copies badlands without being as good, hope u don't get sued over it😑. ### 1/5 — アイデアはいい *2017-07-13, version 1.02* 頭がたくさん回るようになった気がするΣ（ﾟдﾟ ) 動きが可愛いww なんですかねーあたり判定的に針に当たってそのあとまた針にあたるのわ反則やろ いい案だしてくださいよーー ### 1/5 — Rip off *2017-07-12, version 1.02* This game is basically a rip off of the game Badlands they just took the content and tweaked it so they can get money on someone else's game. Not cool bro, just look at the Badlands trailer and see the "coincidences." ### 1/5 — Not a good game *2017-07-11, version 1.02* I would not recommend getting this game. It is a waste of time and space on your mobile device. ### 1/5 — Not fast *2017-07-11, version 1.02* If you like very fast games this is not for you! ### 1/5 — Copy *2017-07-10, version 1.01* Copy of BADLAND ### 1/5 — はぁ… *2017-07-10, version 1.01* ただのLIMBOのパクりやん ### 1/5 — Boring *2017-07-09, version 1.01* It's bad and it's boring ### 1/5 — Badland 2.mierder *2017-07-08, version 1.01* Una simple copia barata del badland ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Crash in game *2024-04-17* when I open the game it immediately crashes and closes the app. ### 5/5 — Fena değil ben oyunu bitirdim 👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿 *2019-09-05, version 1.21* Zaten oyun kolay beğendim tavsiye ederim ### 5/5 — Cool game!!! *2019-03-15, version 1.21* Cool game ### 5/5 — Bot heads *2018-07-07* This is a very fun game better than Badlands **Developer response:** Thank you very much! ### 5/5 — consegui virar o jogo *2018-07-03, version 1.21* depois de muitas tentavias consegui, e so uma questao de tempo pra pegar todas as técnicas do jg... comessei q jg a 1 mes e ja virei numa boa!!! parabens pra quem criou o jogo, mt bom S2 ### 5/5 — 面白い *2017-12-18, version 1.21* 難しいけどこれこそこのゲーム ### 5/5 — ¡El mejor! *2017-12-08, version 1.2* ¡Añadan más niveles! ### 5/5 — H e l l ø >_ b ø t H ē 4 D $ *2017-12-05, version 1.2* thx dev for make this great indie game! ### 5/5 — Супер *2017-11-13, version 1.1* Игра клевая. Больше ничего нельзя сказать! ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2017-08-20* I've completed the game (100%) and the way the physics work make more sense at the last level. It would be cool if there were new levels/worlds with a currency to customise your botheads? I think that'd be cool 😎 **Developer response:** Well played! We have some secret plans for new levels, currency and customization ;) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
