User reviews

Great game

Counting in binary has never been so fun! This game is a perfect 0000-0101!

Super fun, bad performance

This game is addicting, but it bogs down even on modern hardware. Any chance the developer is willing to figure out why it goes so slow with more than like 5 enemies on screen?

Not Working on my IPad

Love this game. Works perfect on my IPhone but my IPad has stuttering and only the first bit calculates. Pressing any others causes Flippy and all numerical values to disappear.

Super fun and addictive.

A simple yet fun game

What more is there to say? I love playing this game. Itโ€™s a great way to kill time or to just have fun.

Great Game! Just needs some TLC

There are some micostutters which can be annoying and throw off your rhythm (iPhone 14 Pro MAX). Itโ€™s a great way to learn otherwise. Suggestion to maybe add a quick pop up or mini tutorial to remind folks how hex to binary works. I had to google to refresh my memory since I was barely getting 1 each try.
