core mechanik doesn't work for me
the whole concept with not beeing able to run and instead need to dash isn't fun for me. i have less opportunites as beeing able to walk and shoot. also the game crashed after an hour with an error code saying it wasn able to load my playsave.
Very decent, slightly broken
Good game, very competent survivor like. However sometimes doesn’t save progress. When you click settings it shows total kills(?) yet doesn’t tally up ( unsure). And sometimes xp disappears but otherwise very fun game. Works offline too
Awesome game
Each game just takes a few min so it’s perfect for me who just wants a quick session but still see progress.
How to switch modes?
I’ve had this game since day 1. Now that you added “spire” mode and the side scrolling mode I still have no idea how to play them. The menus are so confusing. Please streamline the menu so it’s easier to choose which game type to play!
Good, but a few things
Ultra Blade is a blast and is a great addition to the bullet heaven genre. That said, I think this game could use a couple of QOL updates, such as landscape/controller support. I would love to enjoy this on my iPad in full screen but it’s going to have to stay on my phone instead.
Awesome developer
My game kept crashing. Noticed it wasn’t updated in 2 years, but thought to email the developer anyway. He responded and fixed the game within weeks. This is why I buy from indy devs, they care about the players.

Really love this game but the new update made it super zoomed in for me (iPhone 16 Pro Max) behind the Dynamic Island and the settings are hard to get to! Other than that I love it.
Great game but broken
Played 5 minutes but then it crashed with the below error. Now it doesn’t start at all anymore, even after force closing it, shame as the game looks great.
“ERROR in action number 1 of Create Event for object controller 3:
unable to convert string "state"
to float at gml_Script_sor_data_load”

Cuidado: jogo quebrado (erro)
Ao final da primeira jogada já surge um erro, o jogo quebra e não volta mais. Ja faz um ano desde a ultima atualização, se não arrumaram isso ainda, não devem arrumar mais…
First Impressions
It’s good fun! Once you get going it is addicting and hard to stop playing as I just keep wanting to do better, try more play styles, and get more unlocks. Which very quickly you are able to unlock more characters, aka Blades.
I did notice something that could maybe be tweaked is that when first starting out I found the level select screen a little bit confusing at first. It took me a moment to figure out how to start the game. But as soon as you play your first match the next time you are on the level select it becomes clear as gems begin appearing on the blade that represent the various levels you can play.
I really like the character unlock/select screen that works as the main menu. It looks very sleek and the background imagery with the moving clouds are very cool!
One bit of feedback for the dev I might mention for this and other works is that I love the bits of dialogue and lore backdrops within Immortal Rogue, and the little character bios and planetary backstories in Blast Waves. I am sure you try to limit the story elements both as an artistic choice and also so as not to overburden your workload, but you make great worlds and if possible I would love to see a little more of those elements in this and other games of yours! I hope that you will consider this.
To other potential players I would definitely recommend this game, and others by this dev. especially if you like rogue-likes.
Edit: I want to try Spire mode! How do you unlock it, or access it?

Great Game, terrible bug
I have been playing this game regularly for a couple years. Unfortunately after taking a break and restarting the game I have a bug where I can’t unlock any new zones. Everything else works perfectly but this keeps me from progressing and unlocking everything.
Response from developer
Thanks for playing! Apologies for the bug, looking into a fix. In the meantime, if the issue is what I think it is, then you should be able to progress by making sure you don't have any cores equipped.
The game doesnt follow its own rules
This game looks like it could be fun, but most characters use melee, but if you get close to enemies, you are guaranteed to take damage.
You could try to use guns, but good luck aiming. You can have the enemy directly in front of you barrel, but somehow you miss.
Regularly I am no where near any enemy attack, but somehow still take damage. Either the game is cheating, or the graphics don’t match the hit boxes.

Game won’t progress
It keeps saying I need to complete 15 waves in 3 zones even though I have completed more than 30 in every one. I like the game a lot but cannot proceed. Will update review if this gets fixed.
One button portrait mode roguelike of my dreams
An amazing roguelike bullet heaven game with simple controls but good depth and progression. Attacks feel weighty and it takes more involvement and technical skill than some other games in the genre. Love the art style and backgrounds of the levels. Loads smoothly and quickly, making it easy to jump into the game.
Only complaints are about some UI things:
- some buttons near the edge feel a bit too close to the edge, causing them to feel squished or even obscured by things like my iOS home handle
- wish there was a way to quit the round instead of just letting yourself die (which is pretty easy to do, haha)
- wish there was a way to go back to the main weapon/character selection screen after you reach the level selection
Thank you for developing this awesome game!

Yikes
It’s day 4, and I don’t know where I am anymore. It doesn’t matter though. All that matters is how close I am to unlocking Guy With Even Bigger Sword.
Then maybe I can rest. Then, maybe, I can cut a swathe through the unending hordes that will echo through their very DNA. My blade, a message that I am not to be messed with, because the sun is now coming up and I have to be up for work in 3 hours.
Seriously though “Developer Kyle Barrett”, you have a LOT of hours of lost sleep to answer for and the only way you can make it up to me is to please never stop making games I’m begging you please!

Error message appeared after first round
Played one round of this game and it the game got hang after my character died. I forced restarted the game and it couldn’t load, for the first time in all my life playing mobile games, an error message appear with a black screen.
Thought I’d give this game a chance, first impressions wasn’t great and due to the fact that it can’t continue, I wouldn’t know if this is actually a great game.
