## What is Missileman?

Missileman is a high-speed, vertically scrolling 2D shooter. You are a man on a missile! Shoot enemies down with missiles. Earn EXP and upgrade your missile. Can you beat all 16 stages across four Zones to ultimately defeat The Eye?

Dodge walls and obstacles that scroll by at ultrasonic speeds while still aiming carefully to target each enemy, one by one. Missileman is a game all about speed and precision!

Earn points by leveling up, which you can then use to upgrade your abilities in three separate skill trees. You have a total of 24 skills to choose from. Plan a different strategy on every play-through!

Missileman has four Zones, each divided into 4 stages that are generated procedurally so that the wall layout and enemy patterns are always different. Each Zone also has distinctive enemies, whose design and attacks are built around the Zone's own unique boss.

Have a nice missile!

### 5/5 — One of the best games on the App Store

*2025-03-25*

Incredibly polished, fun, skill based, good upgrade system, intense but fair action. Every couple years I come back to complete the game all over again.

### 5/5 — I’ve been playing this game for over 4 years and just completed it!

*2023-04-22, version 1.0.7*

I love this games. I genuinely believe it’s one of the best platform games I’ve ever played. Well built. Different, difficult and stylish. 

Congratulations on what you have accomplished.

### 5/5 — Pleased Update For Newer iPhones

*2022-01-24*

I first played this game when it first came out and it was very fun! To this day, I still play it and really love it. The only problem is is that the game was made to fit the iPhone 7s or 8s. As I play on iPhone XS Max, the game doesn’t fit my screen. Can you please update this game so that it’ll fit current iPhone screens? I know this is a very old game, but it is really fun!! Thanks in advance if you see this! Maybe a Missileman 2!!!??

### 3/5 — Update the game please

*2018-12-28*

I love this game, that’s why I bought it. But it’s not working properly on the iphone xr and it doesn’t fit the screen. The game will periodically pause in the middle of playing. Please fix.

### 5/5 — 何回もクリアしました

*2018-11-23, version 1.0.6*

1-1で全部コンボ繋ぐと4レベル上がります。
ショット全振りで コンボ、壁貫通 を取れたら一気に楽になります。

面白いので何回もクリアしてます

残念なのは4ー1前後で早ければレベルアップがカンストすることです。
カンスト後もライフだけは回復してくれると有り難いですね。
次回作に期待大です。

### 1/5 — Not updated for iPhone X

*2018-11-03*

Only uses a small portion of the screen on newer iPhones.

### 4/5 — 面白いのですが

*2018-04-24, version 1.0.6*

まず、壁は要らないと思います。
古臭すぎます……
プログラム初心者がまず作るやつですよね、壁避けゲーム。
もっと、敵のバリエーションやアイデアで楽しませて欲しいです。

そして、育成要素があるのにセーブができない仕様にも矛盾を感じます。
おかげで、緊張感をもってプレイできる反面、無常観も強く、キャラクターが駒のように見えて感情移入できません。

### 2/5 — Awful on iPhone X!

*2018-02-07*

The app isn't even close to optimized for iPhone X. A recent update has pushed the pause button and the score off screen. Please fix soon!

### 4/5 — ゲーム自体は最高に楽しい

*2017-12-18, version 1.0.4*

ステージをクリアしながら経験値を貯め、パワーアップしてより先に進むといったゲームでとても楽しい。
ただ、360円という価格にしては物足りなさも少し感じる。やり込み要素が無いため、有料である理由が広告が入らないことと、スタミナなど気にせず遊び放題であることだけのように感じる。
道中でコレクションアイテムの回収とか、コインを貯めてキャラクターチェンジなどの要素があればもっと楽しめるかなと思います。

あとiPhoneⅩには向かない。Ⅹは画面下が切れてるのが操作に影響を及ぼします。

### 5/5 — Fantastic game

*2017-09-25*

Really crisp and cohesive graphics, tight controls and simple but challenging scrolling arcade gameplay. Plus no in app purchases, pay once and play!
