### 5/5 — pink floyd

*2025-08-10*

Awesome job man keep it going

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2024-06-11*

Me and my toddler son play this together religiously. I wish there was more content.

### 5/5 — Pink Floyd inspired Creation

*2023-04-19*

Someone's clearly put some thought into this curious game. I admire their creativity, and for attempting to merge some serious philosophical ideas in with what is actually quite a decent shoot em up. It's free and only 70mb, you can't go wrong.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2021-05-04*

I love the game to bad there is only 4 levels (I haven’t beat the first level yet) but can you add more levels?like time have a cigar and others?

### 4/5 — Fun, but...

*2021-01-12*

Very very hard to play, simple, but not as easy as I was expecting

### 5/5 — Best Pink Floyd game I’ve played

*2020-01-23*

Love the stories behind the levels, the music is amazing for it is Pink Floyd music, I love how the death songs after losing a level is from The Final Cut album! My second fave album after The Wall!

### 4/5 — Quick response from the developer

*2019-12-06*

It wouldn’t open when I first downloaded it. I left a review, and the developer immediately fixed it.  I’ve only had a chance to play once, but it looks interesting.  I’m sure I’ll catch on after playing a couple more times.  Nice graphics and sound.

**Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for your review. I understand the one star review, I am very sorry for this experience. I have been able to pinpoint the issue and a fix will be released in the coming 48 hours. 
My apologies again!

### 4/5 — Has lots of promise

*2018-08-09*

I thought that this game is one that definitely has a future. The overall theme was enjoyable. A lot of people will like it, and I thoroughly enjoyed playing it. However, it’s not the kind of game I would typically think to play, and the tutorial was a bit confusing. For example, I didn’t figure out that the bullets absolutely needed to be collected, and was confused when I ran out of ammunition. I suggest changing this, but I think it’s a game worth downloading.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your kind review! It is a worth a lot to me, it has been great fun but also a lot of effort went into making this. So it is nice to see people enjoy it:) 
Considering the ammo, do you maybe have a suggestion what could be done to improve this? Maybe just an auto generate of bullets over time?
I would like to add some new levels in the future, so maybe I can change this along with it

### 5/5 — Shine On

*2018-07-14*

This game is an addicting. Crazy Diamond in the rough

**Developer response:** Thanks for your kind review! It is a worth a lot to me, it has been great fun but also a lot of effort went into making this. So it is nice to see people enjoy it:) 

I would like to add some new levels in the future, about time and pigs

### 5/5 — I wonder what could have inspired this...

*2018-04-29*

The death theme is from another album too.

**Developer response:** Thanks Albert for your kind review! It is a worth a lot to me, it has been great fun but also a lot of effort went into making this. So it is nice to see people enjoy it, and recognize the theme ofcourse. :) 

I would like to add some new levels in the future, i think you will be able to recognize them as well!
