### 4/5 — Third gem in 1-4 (Biomech base 4)

*2023-10-10*

This game is great. No ads or in-app purchases, and it's been updated over the years to not be incompatible. Easily the best and probably only truly great game on the app store.

However, that bastarding third gem in 1-4 is enough for me to dock a whole star away. That is abhorrent dickish design

### 5/5 — So good my dad came back

*2023-03-19*

This game is so good it made me no longer paralyzed from the neck down, it cured my cancer, it made me unsubscribe from dream, which brought my father back, it gave me the idea to start a business in curing cancer and I am so close to finishing. This game is the best game ever and if anyone says otherwise, they just don’t have a dad like I do.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2022-11-16, version 1.1*

Best graphics, best controls, most fun platformer i still own despite already beating it several years ago. I can’t bring myself to delete it.

### 5/5 — Perfection

*2022-10-26, version 1.1*

This Game Rules it's The Perfect Mobile Game if you love old school platformers Keep in mind obviously it's not for kids just looking for a shoot em up you need to time you're jumps right like MegaMan and Tap to shoot it's very simple to play but hard to master Plus Graphics Sound And Controls PERFECT Its Plus 100% Free DOWNLOAD IT NOW 🕹♥️

### 4/5 — So hard I divorced my wife

*2020-11-15, version 1.1*

This game is so overly difficult and frustrating , I had to leave my wife. “If it makes you so mad, stop playing” she said. Go to hell Lisa!
 These developers specialize in frustrating games (AVGN, the knight one) . These games are crafted by experts to make you as unhappy as possible .. After playing this game for 15 minutes I now have definitive proof that there is no just, smiling god above us. I did really like the retro style but only pee blood now..

### 5/5 — I Absolutely Love This Game! But...

*2017-09-19, version 1.0*

I Can’t Play It... iOS 11 Won’t Let Me...

### 1/5 — Kinda misleading

*2015-06-28, version 1.0*

The likeness of this game alone will make you think you're getting an mega-man esque type game. Instead what you get is just another run and jump game. Which is a BIG disappointment cause I really would had more fun playing it that way than this uncontrollably mess of a game. To not be able to control your character in a game like this is an missed opportunity of fun players could have had with this game. A shame this game turned out to be yet another clone with a decent paint job and okay quality content. If you like another dash and jump into your library of redundant app games, then this is for you. If not then I suggest you go play games like "Bill Kill'em" it may not have an end game with levels in it but it's the closest you're gonna get to a platform shooter.

### 4/5 — Death Is Your Fault... 85% of the time.

*2015-04-20, version 1.0*

This is a great game. It's addictive to struggle to overcome each level. The challenge is enough to keep you coming back, but not so bad that to make a casual gamer (like myself) quit. Even after beating it, I find myself coming back to it again because there's a certain satisfaction in trampling over the levels that once gave me grief.

The controls are as close to perfect for this style as you'll get... 85% of the time. There will be times you're sure you hit jump, but somehow the shooting ate your jump. Or sometimes the jump doesn't hold as long as you pressed it, due to a slight change in pressure from your finger. These aren't drawbacks in the control scheme, just byproducts of playing with oily human fingers (mostly).

Positives: Fun gameplay and challenge. 
Negatives: Control (slightly) and some of the jumps are just a bit too frame perfect for this control scheme (for my taste). 
Overall Opinion: Definitely buy it! It's worth the asking price.

### 1/5 — Not Megaman At all

*2015-04-14, version 1.0*

This game is trying to make it look like its the next mega man, but it's not even close. This game is more like "Geometry Dash" than anything else. You cat control the character, all you can do Is jump and shoot while the game forces you to move to the right. You can't move! You only go to the right! And you die CONSTANTLY. Don't get this game. It's not worth 1.99.

### 4/5 — Not bad, I like it.

*2015-04-09, version 1.0*

I like it. Its an amamzing piece of art but at least make an option to skip the introduction scene. Please ha
