Bien pensé et merci aux développeurs. ### 2/5 — バグ *2019-07-08* 楽しく遊んでたけど、ミッションをクリアして いって、ミッション表示数が3個→2個に減ると ゲームオーバー時にバグで強制終了されて ゲームの結果が何も反映されない 致命的なバグが起こる。 機種はiPhone10Smaxです。 ### 3/5 — WHAT A WONDERFUL GAME OF ALiens and jets. *2018-04-08, version 1.34* These graphics are so WONDERFUL ,That it requires some skill of flying a (futuristic) jet out of nowhere and takes out any alien in its path.As you go on ADVANCING wave-by-wave,the creatures will barely and it’s up to us to take the aliens out. Plus that huge thing wasn’t a 🛸 UFO nor a saucer, it’s A MOTHERSHIP!!!!!🛸🛰🛰 ### 4/5 — It won't work *2015-11-07* I updated it today and it keeps crashing Plz fix it ### 5/5 — Update broke the game!!! *2015-10-28* After the October 27 update, the game does not load on iphone 6!

This game is awesome ( talking to the person with the one star review.) ### 3/5 — Hum... Bien mais... *2015-06-18* Le jeu est frustrant ! Son principe est bien, les graphismes sont bien aussi, mais il manque de la haute définition pour l'iPhone 6 Plus et aussi ne pas mourrir dès que le boss nous touche... :-( ### 5/5 — Esata genial *2015-05-03, version 1.22* Esta increíble ### 5/5 — Awesome game!! *2015-04-21* Sick gameplay power ups items it's just an awesome game overall!
