I hope MFI support is on the roadmap

Just got the game. I know I PROBABLY will be addicted; bring MFI support, and change that to CERTAINLY (and another star)
Awesome stuff, updates to the review coming as I get more exposure to it.

Crashing

In an effort to find the final games I plan today, this game was very easily one of the games I would have kept because this game has endless gameplay content and it’s tough as nails. The endless grind for a top score would keep me going for years to come.

Unfortunately when you hit a certain point and the enemy count gets too high on the screen it simply crashes, no ability to return. I could even deal with occasional crashes if I could reload and return.

This makes the game unplayable. Don’t buy this unless they fix it. End of story. Great game. Stop updating content and just make it work please. Will gladly update if this is fixed (I check every couple months)

Very chill, nice music

2021 April: Update: well now it’s crashing randomly when there are lots of objects on screen or when I kill a lot of monsters in a row

I’ve been enjoying it a lot, it’s kind of relaxing and ASMR in a way...but it crashes when my character gets killed lately, so instead of seeing how my character got killed it exits to the springboard.

Would be a four or five star if it wasn’t for the constant crashes.

Good game but it has a tendency to crash when you’re in the middle of things getting interesting.

Almost a 5 Star

I love the game concept. However, on my iPhone X the text at the edges of the screen is cropped.

Just discovered that the game does not save/restore correctly either.
