### 5/5 — Great Game

*2024-08-17*

I played this game years ago and got pretty far. Had to reset sadly but still have the exact same feel as I played before, always fun

### 5/5 — Good game

*2024-08-12*

Tbh idk kno y’all was still updating the game but I don’t here the music anymore but love the game been playing since 2013

### 5/5 — Needs co op too

*2024-07-22*

Keep updating add co op

### 5/5 — Odd problem

*2024-04-09, version 2.9.4*

The game is great, I love how it operates and the smoothness of the fps, but for some strange reason my daily rewards and quests stop refreshing after a while. Not sure if this is just a me problem or if it’s the game, I would very much appreciate if it gets fixed if at all possible.

Aside from that, great game overall, it offers a great challenge and I would highly recommend this game if you’re into space combat.

### 5/5 — bug

*2023-12-21*

All upgraded items will lose their rating after restarting the game.

### 5/5 — There is a bug on this new update

*2023-12-20*

Please read (I’m not at good explaining but please understand)

Since the update came out there was a bug, whenever I upgrade my Legendary weapon +5 and place it on my ship, when I left the game the stats that I upgraded revert its back original to legendary +0. But the building menu did not revert its original upgraded weapons, when I place it on my ship and left the game it reverts back where it was before 

Thank you for understanding

### 5/5 — A great small game with a simple yet fun concept to keep you entertained for hours on end.

*2023-11-20*

The developer really put some thought into this game. Taking onto consideration the fact that this game works like a top-down shooter, and I tend to not like those style games, but this game encapsulated a top-down shooter, and fast paced space combat. If you want an addicting, low battery power game to entertain you, this is the kind of game you have been looking for. The ship building was also very intuitive, and requires some thought of part placement, and balancing of energy, HP, and, weaponry.
Overall, this was the sequel better than the original.

### 5/5 — This is a really good game

*2023-09-03*

I started playing this game at the final week of my freshmen year at high school, I got inspired by my friends btw. I also like the fact you can make a ship respawn up to 100 times(I put that upgrade on my small wormship NOT the capital wormship, I don’t have the capital wormship yet..). The fact when you get into late game, you won’t even process all of the chaos in the battles. Their capital ships are easy to unlock in my opinion, they’re kinda easy, if I get to level 190 though… then that’s a different story, because of the capital ship “harbor”.

But the other capital ships shouldn’t be too much of a problem, because I can use the smol boi wormship to get up to their face and  throw an antimatter torpedo at them. 

So yeah, you should show your friends or family members about this game(maybe even event horizon rpg as well).

### 5/5 — Question

*2023-05-04*

Who can tell me how to defeat the GUNSHIP?😂😂😂

### 5/5 — Really good game but I have a request…

*2023-03-30, version 2.9.1*

This game is really good and it’s quite fun but there is a few problems… first off when you start off playing the game it’s fun but once you start getting to level 100 the game starts to get boring and repetitive suggestion make it so high is become a lot more abundant so you find a lot more of them Second I think there should be a small percent chance that the investigation side missions are instead rescue beacons Second problem there are ships in the game that can’t be bought with stars so I suggest you make it so you can buy the worm ship (Capital and battleship) Harbor and Santa Claus another request for this game make it so all AI weapons are available in The Shop are our weapons the only AI can use for example the vampiric ray mark2 and I don’t think that’s fair I think all AI weapons should be a valuable with a few exceptions first of all cheating from late players getting 50 stars and getting lucky by getting a ship drone bay and Whistler expansion and equipping it to dominate the early rounds the super drone bees are only available to battleships in Capital Ships Second of all I think the vampiric Ray mark2Could have some usage for example the Leach mark two instead uses 2 vampiric ray mark 2s And the deathly Marktwo in instead 1000 damage and has a green laser instead now let’s get onto Drone bays in my opinion every Single faction needs a drone so I came up with a few ideas the syndicate class A mini goblin with no fins and uses a small pulse Cannon and a small missile launcher forts weapons The Jurgens faction A mini embryo with smaller spikes coming out of the bag and has a all weapons slots mini mass driver that does two damage instead of five has faster projectiles but the projectile are smaller and weighs less and is only 1 x 2 Stead of one by three The swarm faction The storm faction drones appearance is the (capital) worm ship segments but with no fins and the rounded ends on the front of it has two small jaws and they use (yellow) laser beams as weapons Contigon faction A slime (frigide) that’s fully rounded and uses one small plasma The difference between it in the sayjix drone is that it also all factions should also have the  satellites make it till the barrel is Zeus themed end of the pot is colossus themed also make it so the singularity canon and the heavy vampiric ray can be bought from the store as they are both bugged and can’t be bought from the golden modules or the storeAlso remove the lock to heavy vampiric Ray from the tardis I think it’s pretty dumb that it’s only ship with locked weapon and the lock to weapon can’t be bought from the stores and also is pretty weak for a heavy version of something all right last couple things Boss levels are instead called the things called fight or flight and how it works is there is no astroids in the level and there is no time to defeat the enemy very far away from you is a star base and a capital ship that you were fighting either you could go into the direction to the star base and Fly away or you could go towards the captle ship and actually fight now this is form dream so it might not be intended on how i asked as the dream happened about half a year ago anyways A few more suggestions add the smuggler and merchant ship I really want to see their power and event horizon frontier so basically they have two built-in systems that are special to them and they’re sold by the merchant in the smuggler the merchant ship has a built-in system called merchant it’s pretty self-explanatory upon death it drops normal and green modules and low tier blueprints the smuggler ship has a built-in system called smuggler also self-explanatory eyedrops purple and yellow modules as well as high tier blue prints you can buy the smaller ship on the smaller and the merchant ship from the merchant also the antimatter torpedo it’s basically just a torpedo version of the techno beam so can you make a small antimatter torpedo and a death-pedo which is just a torpedo version of the Death Ray also I change my mind about the AI drone days instead of like some thing I like to call the custom Drone Bay name is self-explanatory it allows you to pick your ships and then turn them into drones (and yes they can use clone in generators and drone bays) The small one is 3x4 the medium one is the size of a large normal drone bays and large one is the size of an interceptor hanger The small ones support frigates and destroyers and holds one drone The medium one can support Frigates destroyers and cruisers and hold is three drones in the large one supports frigates destroyers cruisers and battleships and holds three drones frigates can’t use the custom drone bays destroyersCan equip the custom on Weber can’t spawn in other destroyers cruisers can use a custom Drone bay but can’t spend another cruisers battleships can’t use the custom drone bays but can’t spawn other battleships and cattle sheepskins born and friggin destroyers cruisers and battleships also one more thing and this would really help me so basically in the daily missions the HP of the Jörmungndr Is normal in the hard daily mission what in the actual tool it’s cranked up making destroying it nearly impossible same thing for the harbor so lower the health down to normal please all right last few things first off I think when you get the blueprints for ships you can have more than one advert ship you can craft the ship with the blue print three times before you have to fight it and get it again this so I came to my mind when I wanted to re-create the double veteran Jörmungndr but I couldn’t because you can only have one ship. And I think that would be pretty helpful anyways sorry for bad spelling I’m using speech to text because I’m not the best at spelling =( I am done with this request this is all I want to be added to the game it would mean a lot to me if you added this to me your game is awesome thank you!

### 5/5 — Love this game just some recommendations

*2022-12-10*

Can you make a endless mode?

### 5/5 — My ship is a sonic

*2022-07-19, version 2.6.0*

Very fast and funny

### 1/5 — Save problem

*2024-06-16, version 3.0.0*

Really fun game but saving seems to be bugged as every time I attempt to save and load, it only loads the last save before the new one and can‘t overwrite it.

### 1/5 — Ошибка

*2023-12-25*

Последнее обновление напрочь сломало и так слабенький автопилот. Если раньше корабль на автопилоте иногда врезался в станцию, но по итогу все таки выбирался, сейчас же, он как будто специально ищет эти щели в космической станции, и пытается влететь внутрь неё, не предпринимая вообще никаких попыток к развороту и переключению на другую цель.

### 2/5 — Needs tutorial, bored

*2020-08-25, version 2.5.3*

Great concept. Wish it was more flushed out. Maybe a better tutorial? No idea how to redesign my ship. I got bored and didn’t want to invest any more time.

### 3/5 — Star stuff

*2025-03-23, version 3.0.0*

Cant buy more battles with EXACTLY 10 STARS

### 3/5 — Older was better

*2021-01-31, version 2.5.6*

The older game when you chose which ships you upgrade towards was better. 
It’s pretty much becoming the original game, with a giant ship in the middle.

### 4/5 — Red Dwarf mission

*2024-07-24*

I played the Red Dwarf mission many times and only got the Red Dwarf frigate, but not other ships. I watched other players' videos and they got all the series of warships in the Red Dwarf mission. Can you guys check and update it?

### 4/5 — Where ship upgrader?

*2024-03-06*

The ship that upgrades your ship of stars is gone for me.
Idk how to upgrade my ships now 🤷‍♂️

### 4/5 — weapon bug

*2024-02-11, version 2.9.3*

my holy cannon was +16 and dropped back to +0...😡
costed just above a 1,000,000 credits

### 4/5 — There’s a screen bug problem(another edit)

*2022-10-30*

Okay, it’s a fantastic game and I love it, but today, I checked onto this game and wanting to play on it, the boxes that has the symbols on it, you know, when you want to click on a ship symbol or star symbol or tools symbols, and even on the letters that are in boxes, are white, I’m not joking, I can show screen shots of it, also, during the editing your ships, like putting the weapon here or a item in here, it’s all white, it’s hard to put the items in, there’s probably a bug going around here, please fix this, (also I’m not good at explaining, but I have screenshots of the gameplay,) New edit, it keeps showing that I’m not allowed to save my game, telling me I don’t have permission, it all started when I bought some stars with real money, and it just keeps on showing that whenever I complete a lvl or any lvls.

### 4/5 — *sigh*

*2020-07-10*

great game, like the last one, except you cant do anything with resources, and the ai is still using aimbot.

### 5/5 — Holy Peak

*2026-03-14*

I love this game so much, And there is so much diversity. Also It never gets boring so you can grind! It hits diffrent while traveling.

### 5/5 — Arena

*2025-12-13, version 3.0.0*

Arena and music is glitched

### 5/5 — Amazing game!

*2025-11-12*

The game is fun and amazing i just feel like you should update the game more often like more factions, more ships. Just more content in general :)

### 5/5 — PvP could use some work

*2025-10-17, version 3.0.0*

Great game overall, lots of fun with all the customization and such, but the pvp match making system is a bit unbalanced right now, quite a bit of the time I’m matched up with players WAY outside my league, but other than that I have no complaints

### 5/5 — Nothing to complain about

*2025-09-10, version 3.0.0*

The game is great, I love how it operates and the game physics are quite realistic, the different ways you can set up your ships are virtually endless, with so many unique ships and modules you will never be able to uncover every possible combo that can be made

Great game overall, it offers a great challenge and I would highly recommend this game if you’re into space combat.

### 5/5 — This game made my childhood fun

*2025-09-08*

I have played this game for years, and its still as fun as it was before. The only thing I hope is that this game keeps getting updated!

### 5/5 — Fun.

*2025-06-14*

Game is great, nothing much to complain about.

### 5/5 — Icl ts pmo

*2025-03-23, version 3.0.0*

Ts pmo icl

### 5/5 — Top tier

*2025-01-28*

This is my all time favorite mobile game (not glazing). There are so many reasons I love it, ship customization, progression, the ships themselves(Beholder especially), the diverse ship parts and the list of ships so long it's almost annoying to navigate. Though my absolute favorite thing about this game is the stars, the second currently that games use to make money off of you, why is it my favorite feature? Because they are actually attainable without spending money, and no, it's not like a "here have 1 star!" At the beginning of the game or after 100 levels. If you save up for say, 50 levels and do a few scavenger hunts you can have around 80(which is actually a pretty good amount considering how many things they're used for). Speaking of scavenger hunts, or whatever they're called, they can be a bit boring. Something I'd like to see is asteroid clusters around some of the loot.

Anyways, thank you for this stupidly underated game, I will be spending money on it and playing for probably another however-long-I-live. 

"Cheerios!" or something

### 5/5 — Why did you change the name

*2024-08-19, version 3.0.0*

Why
