Ok.. feeling the $0.99 burn a bit, still it's a great game and I don't regret buying it one bit... get it without thought. Just be sure to have some space available.
It does seem to crash fairly often on the touch 4. Mostly not during play. It won't lose you any progress by crashing 99% of the time. It does have a bit of load time after shutting it down in multi tasking and restarting though. It's a bit of a process but I thought it was worth it. And now it's free, how could you say, no?

It takes a while to load on my iPhone 4 (not 4S) and once it does everything is fast. Highly recommended if you like Starfox.

NaiveCynic Well-Known Member Oct 18, 2012 58 0 0 #13 NaiveCynic, Dec 18, 2012 Should've seen this coming with the frequent price drops. Picked it up for $0.99 and haven't played more than a few stages. I like it, it's just that my backlog is monstrous and I've been putting a lot of time into my Vita lately. Oh well. I know other people have been burned way worse. killercow Well-Known Member Apr 8, 2009 3,784 3 38 https://twitter.com/killercow #14 killercow, Dec 18, 2012 I don't regret getting this one day 1 at full price.
