### 5/5 — Feedback on game

*2022-08-18, version 1.2.1*

This is an awesome game. Hear it’s my favorite game but I have one suggestion. Can you please make it to where you can select stuff to put in front of the rocket? Thanks that will help the realism.😂

### 5/5 — Great game

*2022-06-26, version 1.2.1*

Overall great game but can you add the sea dragon please if you answer this it would be great

### 5/5 — Amazing job developer!

*2022-03-19, version 1.2.0*

Honestly, you and your game is basically a simulation of SpaceX and what to expect when a SpaceX launch is coming! Keep it like that.

### 5/5 — Good game but we need all the rockets free!

*2021-12-03, version 1.1.7*

Hi, the app is good. When I go into the app, it is just a gray screen. Can you please fix it? All the rockets need to be free, I mean come on we can’t waste own money to get “rockets in a random AR game.” Can you please make them free, thank you! I’m a nine-year-old kid by the way! It’s true.

### 5/5 — Great but 1 problem

*2021-11-28, version 1.1.7*

I love this application but recently it won’t open so hopefully it’s just my phone performance affecting it. Hopefully a new version covers the problem

### 4/5 — It’s a good game

*2021-09-26, version 1.1.6*

I launch my rocket but please can you add the subscription rockets to be free

### 5/5 — Best One

### 5/5 — Amazing but need more rockets

*2021-06-13, version 1.1.6*

The game is so fun but I think it needs more rockets added to the game

### 5/5 — Cool!

*2021-06-06, version 1.1.6*

I would like for there to be a vr mode, but otherwise this app is great!

### 4/5 — Works well

*2021-03-25, version 1.1.6*

Suggested updates:
* Much more rumbly smoke or at least ability to turn it up
* Ability to increase size of the rocket, so literally it fills the living room

### 3/5 — Really

*2026-04-13, version 1.4.0*

Every rocket you buy takes off then ends. No stage release or lunar orbit. Fricking stupid. Too bad cause they have an awesome idea and design. Hey dummies sell the game to me so I can take it out of this world

### 4/5 — It’s good but need more free rockets

*2023-07-24, version 1.2.9*

Amazing game and great graphics. It’s just that there are only so many free rockets. The problem is that it’s the best rockets that cost money.

### 5/5 — It’s great but one thing

*2022-08-20, version 1.2.1*

I love the game, it’s super fun launching rockets, but there’s one thing, don’t make the countdown the same woman for all the Rockets, let them be their original countdown
