He downloaded the app before and used it everyday until it automatically disappeared on his phone. Overall, I’ll pass him to you BEST GAME IN THE WORLD EVERRRRR! ### 3/5 — I can’t add anything It crashes *2021-04-14, version 3.32* Hi! My name is Julius and everytime I add a object is crashes please fix it I rate it a 3 because it works for others but not me please fix it ### 4/5 — Good, but.... *2020-01-28, version 3.26* I love the language, but there was an update just made (~2020/01/13) that was to fix bugs. Now every time I open the app it spend a few minutes trying to update all of the code, actors, sounds, etc. Then if errors out. Also would be great to compile it into an app, or explain what program to use to accomplish it. Thanks ### 2/5 — Me don’t get it *2019-08-27, version 3.21* I’m not sure how to do ANYTHING on this app it’s just hard for me ### 3/5 — App is nice... *2019-01-19, version 3.15* If you know what you are doing or are willing to put in time looking at the other apps because the whole tutorial is in Korean... ### 2/5 — No photos *2018-02-20, version 2.44* I can’t add my photos from my library to my project! ### 2/5 — It’s great *2018-01-20, version 2.38* It’s great ### 2/5 — Eah. *2017-12-24, version 2.33* This app WAS great but now a lot of features are broken because “It’s for learning, not playing”. We already have too many of THOSE apps. ### 4/5 — Great app but have a suggestion *2017-10-27, version 2.25* How about some short tutorials or how to's for people like me who are having a hard time understanding how this works, or maybe a YouTube tutorial! ### 1/5 — zoey2392 Instagram *2016-06-22, version 1.81* How do I use this??? Does this need Internet access? Really confused😒😩 ### 4/5 — Good but could use a tweak \(•_•)/ *2016-06-21, version 1.81* Needs bug fixes but otherwise great app fun to play around with😄! ### 1/5 — Confused *2016-06-05, version 1.8* I downloaded this app with the excitement that i would be able to create my own app. Well i shouldn't have been so hopeful. This does not work. I really wish the creator could have tried a bit harder. ### 2/5 — Good game but... *2016-05-11, version 1.70* It's a great game! But there's three things you need to work on. 1. It keeps crashing! 2.Ads everywhere! 3. It's confusing. Update on that and it's amazing. ### 1/5 — Cool but could be better *2016-04-29, version 1.70* why are there Chinese characters everywhere? I really can't create anything. Please fix!! ### 1/5 — VERY OUTDATED *2016-03-24, version 1.70* One, very confusing, and two, it's outdated as heck... I mean, is it like,iOS 6 or something? I think that's all I need to say. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Too many crashes *2026-06-06, version 3.32* Good concept but on the iPad 8 gen this doesn’t work I tried making a app it crashed I tried placing a rocket it crashed ### 1/5 — no no no no no no NO *2022-09-09, version 3.32* I can not change anything on the objects the size can not change ### 1/5 — I’m sorry what *2020-11-12, version 3.32* This app is terrible I don’t know what to do I doesn’t tell you ### 1/5 — Terrible *2020-10-12, version 3.32* Terrible never playing again. ### 1/5 — THIS WORSt EVEr *2020-07-21, version 3.32* The tutorial is not English but the title is and idk how to make game so this wooooorst game ever ### 1/5 — So bad *2020-06-29, version 3.32* It was so bad never playing it again ### 1/5 — Terrible *2020-04-15, version 3.30* It’s interface was terrible and it crashed multiple times.it is also hard to understand and I couldn’t understand the code and actors. Plus... What are aliens? Is that like an enemy.. like the only enemy ### 1/5 — Horrible App *2017-10-01, version 2.23* I don't usually write app reviews, but this app was so infuriating I was driven to do it. The app interface, this isn't good for new coders. Previously coding for two years on an app called Hopscotch, I learned values and x - y coordinates, which they ask you to enter when you create the app, but they have no instructions whatsoever. When I got to the character making part, all the names were in CHINESE! I don't know it, but it clearly was. It didn't allow me to import my own character, which was annoying if you want to make an alien game or something not including that little character. I strongly suggest that if you want an app to take you further in coding, this is not it. Even if you don't often listen to reviews like me, believe it. You'll be disappointed if you get it. ### 1/5 — .... *2017-06-11, version 2.18* ..…………,…and.…….. ### 1/5 — Docent Fit My iPhone 5 *2016-06-24, version 1.81* 🤔😐😳😁🙄💩😲💀 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Very good! *2020-05-26, version 3.30* I will rate it 5 very cool but still the loading is a little long so please make shoter and 1 more grapchics please response to me if you updated the app. ### 5/5 — Great! *2020-02-03, version 3.27* Amazing and very user friendly!

Pls fix this ### 5/5 — From a Long Time User...get this app! *2014-09-09, version 1.70* First, it seems confusing, but once you understand it, it makes creating an app easier than it should be. Second, there is a lot to be fixed, I've obtained a beta from their website (which you should try) and they are in the process of fixing it, there is a lot in the app that hasn't been enabled because some features are not ready yet, so a lot is left to come so far as updates to features and bug fixes. Get to know it, get the beta, and you'll be making awesome apps and games in no time! ### 5/5 — Best creating app ever! *2014-08-29, version 1.70* I think this app should aways get a five star rating . Because all of the detailing work that you did in this is so dam awesome . <3 ### 5/5 — dont worry! *2014-06-21, version 1.70* this app is awesome and all and i hope your poor business gets better :D --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
