Sad to learn that Apple has imposed restrictions on the devs and will unilaterally pull the game from the App Store. Just wanted to through my support behind the creators. Sorry to hear Apple is treating you guys this way. ### 5/5 — Very cool app. *2023-08-16* I like it. I like it a lot. Even old school guys can ride this skateboard! ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ ### 3/5 — Very nice graphics *2021-02-03, version 1.0.1* More of stylish hoverboard sim. I mean, from what I can tell you can haphazardly crash into certain things and collect them, then you just fly around chaotically while you boost your self in a random direction that isn't forward. The level design is very well done, though I have a feeling from reading the reviews that there's a game in here somewhere. There are a few icons in the pause menu, all of which are hyperlinks I think. It would be nice if one of them had a short blurb about what I'm supposed to do, if there isn't a tutorial or anything. ### 5/5 — Pretty Great! *2020-09-16, version 1.0.1* The world is well designed with lots of small details. The controls to me, are a little different and hard to get use to, but it doesn’t take long to learn the tricks. I really enjoy the hidden area/mini games that pay homage to the dev’s other games. I just wish there was an easier way to quit the mini games without getting to the end, and go back to the normal game. **Developer response:** I'm so glad you enjoyed it! There is actually an easier way to exit minigames, just hover back into the VR booth. 😀 ### 5/5 — Amazing *2020-07-04, version 1.0.1* Amazing game. Maybe a smaller price tag, Apple TV support and some new maps would be great too🤷‍♂️ ### 5/5 — Superb *2020-05-29, version 1.0.1* This is such a great game, from the fluidity of the controls to the art style and the great music. It’s like a Jet Set Radio built for mobile. ### 3/5 — Worth $.99, not $5 *2020-04-02, version 1.0.1* The game is cute and fluid, but there is nothing to do, and the only “trick” you can do is a flip. It’s pretty fun just to ride around, but certainly not $5 fun. ### 4/5 — Please update for iPad Pros *2020-03-25, version 1.0.1* I love the game; the style, mechanics, and simplicity of it, but could you please update it to run at full capacity on iPad pros? Full resolution at 120hz would be amazing ! Edit > I understand what you’re saying about the mechanics and timing, can we at least get resolution options though, or at least full screen on iPad pros? I’d definitely give 5 stars after that. **Developer response:** I'm so glad you enjoyed it! The game is designed to be "frame-locked" to 60fps in the same way classic fighting games are. This is done to achieve a perfectly even smoothness without stutter from individual frame variation. Everything depends on this timing, down to the physics, so it's just a core attribute/quirk of the game. Stay safe, Oren Edit: I don't own an iPad Pro, but will look into it, thanks for the suggestion! ## Frequently asked questions about Repulsive ### What is Repulsive?
