### 5/5 — Great game

*2023-07-16*

Thanks, nice game! Nice music!)

**Developer response:** Thanks, appreciate it!!

### 5/5 — Totally worth a dollar!

*2023-07-09*

This games simple and fun, whatever the control issues that are cited in bother reviews must have been fixed. It’s a simple shooter and I like the use of radar to track and go after enemies

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback, appreciate it!!!

### 3/5 — An interesting first pass that hasn’t yet found the fun

*2023-06-28*

What I liked: Blending of the vampire survivors, Starfox 2 arena dog fights and classic shoot em ups. 

Good overall aesthetic

What I disliked: overall a lack of UI across the entire application. No pause buttons or settings. Feels like a draft or prototype interface. 

Virtual control sticks are too small and overall inaccessible. Splitting controls across screen regions would be a better approach. Controller support one day. 

General feedback: This game has ideas about how the ship should feel and control which I appreciate, this give it an identity. More attention on what it feels like to pilot the ship would be great. For example what if drifting around enemy groups was acknowledged with multipliers or alternative fire, or perhaps a boost to get out of trouble.

After a couple waves the upgrade screen feels like buying back health and little else. Runs are identical with no variance that I can see.

It was a buck, I get it. I’m fine with it. Overall I wouldn't even leave a review here unless I thought you were on to something.

**Developer response:** Thanks, Appreciate the awesome feedback, Submitted update for the controls, hopefully they are better, as others mentioned they were horrible.. 
Yea, and I get the point of everything from your feedback and will work on adding and improving it,!! thanks

### 1/5 — Currently unplayable

*2023-06-28*

I don’t like writing one star reviews but I feel like I need to for this game, all the game assets are overlapping and bugging out making the game literally unplayable. I can’t speak to the gameplay because I can’t get past the main menu. Wouldn’t recommend for a dollar.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2023-06-27*

Not playable! Need to fix this game.👎👎👎👎👎

**Developer response:** Thanks for trying and the detailed feedback!!!!

### 1/5 — Not great…

*2023-06-26*

Normally I don’t write bad reviews, but want to caution others from spending a buck on the game.

I take responsibility for spending 99 cents on this game, but honestly it’s not really playable. The controls are fixed to the far corners of the screen with no options to change them to a free config. As a matter of fact there are no options to speak of at all. Not to mention they are extremely unwieldy.

I was hoping for a good space style shooter, but ended up spending a buck on a pretty unplayable game.

The graphics are really grainy and obscure the field, and the effects are lackluster at best. Honestly not what I would call worth a play even if the game was free. 

I’m not too upset about losing a dollar over it, but really with this quality it seems like a quickly cobbled together game with the soul intent of making a couple of bucks off folks like myself willing to pay a buck or two for something that may be fun for a bit.

Of course if this is a devs first attempt at a game, I’d say make it free & ad supported and make the game quite a bit better before putting a price on it. It’s really a frame of a game that needs a lot more work and polish.

Just being honest…

**Developer response:** Thanks for the honest feedback, appreciate it, I’ll definitely take on board all your feedback and improve on it..

### 1/5 — Horrible con game

*2023-06-25*

This is made to look like a twin stick shooter, but it is far from it. There isn’t even a menu button or a left/back button on the level select. Don’t waste your time or money.

**Developer response:** Thanks for trying it, and honest feedback.
Not sure where you get the idea it was made too look a  twin stick shooter.
Anyway sorry you found it Horrible!!!

### 5/5 — wow!

*2023-06-14*

such a cool game
