### 2/5 — Mediocre

*2024-04-27*

I REALLY want to like this game, but have experienced such horrendous slow down to the point it’s almost unplayable. 

Weird game crashes while playing levels as well, the screen will go black, but the borders are still visible. 

If this stuff is fixed 5 stars for sure!

### 5/5 — A classic and the main reason I got Apple Arcade

*2024-03-25*

That’s all

### 3/5 — Good but no sound

*2023-04-18*

Not sure where to submit a bug report, but the game is good because it’s Dodonpachi. However, I assume the lack of sound is not intended. Adjusting the settings does nothing.

### 1/5 — Really…

*2023-01-22, version 1.0.0*

I’m about to finish the first boss fight with 1000 combo, perfect run and the game crashes. What a waste of time, glad I didn’t buy this game.

### 2/5 — Ok

*2022-12-26, version 1.0.0*

It’s ok. Horrible frame rates and it runs windowed so you don’t get to take up you’re whole screen. Technical problems throughout. But it’s ok if you need that fix.

### 5/5 — I have a life

*2022-06-28, version 1.0.0*

I have a life

### 3/5 — It lags

*2022-02-20, version 1.0.0*

I remember playing this on my iPhone 3 over a decade ago and it ran fine. But now playing this on my iPhone 13 Pro and it lags? Something’s not right.

### 1/5 — Terrible port

*2022-02-16, version 1.0.0*

This was ported over using a $99 kit. The play area is 1/2 the screen - 1/4 of the top is useless blank space and 1/4 of the bottom is useless blank space. At least allow the bottom area for controlling the ship?  Instead, my finger takes up the majority of the screen making this game unplayable. Very disappointing, but typical of rushed ports I find in Apple Arcade.

### 4/5 — Controller Support Please

*2022-01-09, version 1.0.0*

Control support please

### 1/5 — No controller support!

*2021-12-13, version 1.0.0*

The lack of controller support in a game like this is bananas.
