The speed, the smoothness of the framerate and the beautiful graphics. You control the spaceship by using you thumb only and it works surprisingly good and responsive, when I died it always felt like it was my own fault. Pro tip: change the view to cockpit view in option menu, makes it a lot easier to beat the levels. LordShad0wz Well-Known Member Nov 19, 2014 4,280 1 38 #3 LordShad0wz, Jun 22, 2016 Wow! Just wow! You want this game! It's well worth it's asking price! I absolutely love the control scheme. The level lay outs are phenomenal. I prefer to play in landscape. It's a beautiful game and you just get that feeling of one more time! Absolutely amazing dev! Thank you! Get this people! Billy anthony78 Well-Known Member Nov 13, 2015 3,127 703 113 #4 anthony78, Jun 22, 2016 Is this more or less an endless runner? Kind of like Race The Sun in space? baldeagle86 Well-Known Member Dec 21, 2013 737 0 0 #5 baldeagle86, Jun 22, 2016 The game is amazing. The developer is awesome too, it really deserves to be featured by Apple and TA. Like touchy85 said, the graphics/smoothness/gameplay are top notch. I've already 100% the achievements but I cannot stop playing. I got some high scores already so I'm excited to see how quickly I get beaten by the rest of you all! Ha touchy85 Well-Known Member Jan 21, 2015 1,616 1 38 #6 touchy85, Jun 22, 2016 It's both. There are levels you can beat and after that you unlock the endless mode of that level. forsakenxe Well-Known Member Oct 23, 2014 709 0 16 #7 forsakenxe, Jun 22, 2016 Last edited: Jun 22, 2016 *sigh* TA is so slow and unreliable today, wrote up a super long post and *poof* nothing, text lost... so here I go again! ________ Do you wanna feel like Han Solo evading some crazy space junk? Wanna feel like the most bad ass pilot ever? Then look no further and BUYS THIS GAME! Easiest 5 Star ever. Beta tested it for months, completed almost all the levels and I can say: It's an absolut blast to play! Content: - Single Player only - Level based stages that get progressively more difficult and can be replayed on higher speed and on endless mode for scores. - Achievements - Unlock new Ships by completing tasks and getting good scores - Play any level you want with any speed you like in endless mode Controls: Insanity! The very best controls on iOS for such a type of game. I played hours of it and I am still amazed by how good they are! Spot on and if you crash it is always your fault. The controls allow for very fine movement and steering, even through some tiny holes... and you feel awesome if you made it! Never ever had an issue with the controls after hours and I praise them highly... so what's more to say? Graphics: A tiny bit basic but that's alright! Tiny developers and such. They fit the style very well and you get a butter smooth experience as well, no lag, stuttering in the slightest, and that is really needed for such a game. They are also not bad in any way IMO. Conclusion: This game delivers the very best and bad-ass flying experience ever. You get a sense of accomplishment after finishing a mission with no crash and if you do just touch a corner here, hey you get a shield with a longer cooldown, so it is a bit forgiving as well. It is not that hard, but also not super easy. Some levels take some time to get used to. Overall the controls are amazing and I can just urge you to buy this gem of a game, one of my Game of the Year contenders for sure and that's the very first time I wrote that statement (check my post history ). BUY IT NOW ! ! Edit: almost forgot! Awesome develepoer, too. I was in touch with him couple of times (never because of actual bugs, but for improvements) and he listend to all of them and implemented them. Also very fast in answering my e-mails so I expect him to turn up here very soon. Good job dude! OrangutanKungfu Well-Known Member Dec 29, 2015 1,011 0 0 Media UK #8 OrangutanKungfu, Jun 22, 2016 Love the art style. And the name, with that retro Sega nod. Hmmm... I can't say I'm not interested. rezn Well-Known Member Patreon Silver Mar 8, 2014 862 6 18 Male Coder/Keyer in medical ICD 10 Reno, NV #9 rezn, Jun 22, 2016 This game has been a fantastic ride. Happy to see its finally live. Well worth your time and money. Bison Eye Active Member Jun 29, 2015 38 0 0 #10 Bison Eye, Jun 22, 2016 Looks great. Wish it would run on iPhone 5! mj132 Well-Known Member Oct 2, 2013 354 5 18 United Kingdom #11 mj132, Jun 22, 2016 Looks really awesome, may have to take the plunge. How are the controls? is a virtual joystick or tap controls like race the sun? AppUnwrapper Well-Known Member Oct 26, 2011 4,062 3 0 http://www.appunwrapper.com/escape-games/ #12 AppUnwrapper, Jun 22, 2016 The whole screen is basically a joystick. Just place your finger anywhere you want and guide the ship. It's perfect for mobile. My main complaint is that the scope/target/whatchamacallit is hard to see sometimes because it blends in with the background. I play in cockpit mode, which is a lot easier IMO, but wish there was some way to adjust the color or for it to automatically change so as not to blend in with the background. Repulsa Well-Known Member Jul 3, 2015 1,584 81 48 #13 Repulsa, Jun 22, 2016 Looks pretty amazing cadillackills Well-Known Member Jul 12, 2015 148 0 0 #14 cadillackills, Jun 22, 2016 Last edited: Jun 24, 2016 So glad I checked TA before I left for work. This is an amazing piece of art. Buy it now and remember why you game on your phone. Thanks devs, great job! (Edit: one person developed this...to all of you that can do this, gives me something to aspire to, and I'm 37....) mj132 Well-Known Member Oct 2, 2013 354 5 18 United Kingdom #15 mj132, Jun 22, 2016 Thanks for the reply downloading now! fabianb Well-Known Member Nov 1, 2014 1,009 0 36 #16 fabianb, Jun 22, 2016 I just bought it and played 8 rounds so far. It plays incredibly smooth on my 5s, that alone is amazing! I'm loving it so far. Some great little things: There is a sensitivity slider and you can tap 'Tap to respawn' instantly when you die.

Love how instinctive writhing around space highways, asteroids and giant space stations is with these controls Please buy this so we can get even more levels in future updates. curtisrshideler Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze Jul 30, 2011 3,097 25 48 Male Video Producer/Editor Texas http://twitter.com/curtneedsaride #19 curtisrshideler, Jun 22, 2016 Only $3, under 100mb, compatible with iOS 8, gorgeous, AND I can enjoy it in landscape or portrait?!? I'm sold. This sounds like a game made by a mobile gamer. LordShad0wz Well-Known Member Nov 19, 2014 4,280 1 38 #20 LordShad0wz, Jun 22, 2016 Yea this dev thought ahead. You can tell the dev put a lot of thought into every aspect of this game. From the art style to the controls it's a purely premium, intense, and fun experience. I usually don't give out 5 stars until after I've played a full 2 hours but not with this one. It earned it after 30 minutes. Billy (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
