Peak

This is peak, even if it’s just the demo. Also, is the lack of super mods intentional? Because I remember using Barrage and Hidden Power on the computer demo, but they’re not on the mobile version

Response from developer

So glad you loved it! They're unlocked in the full version of the game.

Fun but crashes a lot

Games is really fun and visually cool but my game crashes constantly. I’d buy the full version but not if it runs like this. Running on a iPad Air 5 so I am not sure what the deal is but would love a patch to stabilize it.

Update: thanks for reaching out. And yes, it’s the B button issue so good to know a fix is on the way. Thanks again!

Thanks for letting us know. Are you playing on a gamepad, by chance? We haven't heard reports of crashing for any other reason. If you have any details to offer, please send them to chimericgames@gmail.com. If you're using a gamepad, it's just the "B" button that causes a crash, and this is an issue with the engine that was just patched, and we should be able to apply the fix this week.

Controls on gamepad

Why is the aiming with one analog and not both like a twin stick shooter should be thought this was gone be fun but five min of just trying to move around was enough to uninstall

Response from developer

I get where you're coming from its not a twin-stick shooter on purpose. It's a "retro-evolution" of a 1970s - 1980s arcade mechanic I wanted to explore. Coupling facing and firing is core to the design and the "Drift" mechanic, where you're intended to set yourself in motion, turn and fire, like "Asteroids".

One of my favorite games on the pc now for mobile!

While I prefer playing this with an actual controller or keyboard I still love this game. Don’t forget that you can turn on virtual joystick and auto-fire in the menu to make the touchscreen less complicated (although autofire does have some negative interactions with certain weapons like not being able to stockpile missiles). Now onto the game. This game is probably the best arcade game I’ve seen in at least 10 years. The gameplay is fluid and smooth, the music is minimalist but epic, and the upgrades/progression are super fun and gives you so much control over your builds. You have a liberal amount of perk rerolls, so that you can always get close to what you want. If you die then you have to start over but it doesn’t feel like such a big loss since the runs aren’t insanely long and you can jump right back in. Anyways, give this game a try on here or on pc. You won’t be disappointed!
