    Started the game just to notice that on the iP6 there isn't used all screen.Why? I don't want to play with black bars on the left and right.

    Don't get me wrong but the devices are now out nearly one year so that shouldn't be the case anymore.

    This was mentioned back on page 10. The dev is working on it (or plans to).

    I'm not having this issue on my iPhone 6+.

    Playing this game for the second day, it's probably a 3/5 for me atm. But I see so much potential. Hopefully enough buys will encourage the devs to keep adding content and fix bugs but it's not a must buy atm. One could argue it's a must buy-to-support, not a must buy yet.

    Has anyone else had any problems scrolling around the star map? I can scroll through the entire map (go back to previous areas) on my iPod but not my iPad Air. I am loving the game but this is keeping me from completing objectives.

    Yes, the thread is full of these, along with ways to go around this issue while a fix goes live.

    Ok, so is this problem on the normal iPhone 6 and not on iPhone 6+?

    We have not been able to afford either device. It would be really helpful if you can confirm this is on iPhone 6 only and not the 6+.

    One person told he does not have a problem on his iPhone 6+ above, but a person earlier said this: "Picked this up, but am now awaiting the update and hoping for full-screen graphics on my iPhone 6+. "

    A fix was submitted to the store 5 days ago. It should be live this week hopefully very soon. You can click on the mission tab in the galaxy map and then click on a mission to focus the map to your mission objective.

    We have implemented a double save feature, which will ensure that losing all progress will be a thing of the past. This update will go for review after the current one has been accepted, otherwise we lose 5 days of review time.

    We are constantly working on every issue and we will fix them eventually :)

    Thanks! Could you send your e-mail to [email protected] . We can then invite you to Testflight
    and let you test new versions to see if we get it fixed. We don't have the device ourselves so that
    would be fantastic.

    Three things:

    1. Fun game! I loved Homeworld on PC, and this is pretty close. Just finished the first series of levels on easy (map 1) and am mopping up credits before going to the next screen.

    2. I've read that it doesn't fill the screen on some iPhone 6 models. I can report there are black bars on my iPhone 5s—what the heck?

    3. Maybe I am missing this feature, or maybe it doesn't exist: when buying a new "wingman" ship, is there any way to tell what it's loadout can be? I see the hull points, shield, etc., but can't figure out how to tell how many red turrets it has, versus side turrets. That's critical information when you're dragging around a bunch of cool red-turret weapons...

    Same here. I heard the name drop ftl and have been reading to see how it relates and compares to ftl. So far I don't see how. Can you comment?

    Regarding 2, apparently it affects the 5s as well, I believe we can fix this and have it fixed when we send the next update!

    Regarding 3. Yeah that is missing. Hangars are shown graphically on the ships, but we don't have any for the other slots. We got to think about that.

    This let's play will probably show you best if the game is for you or not :) But galaxies are randomized, as well as enemies, missions, locations of Battlestations (Super helpful to you), finding turrets and probably something I forgot! You have to get to the end sector to continue to the next part of a galaxy.

    It is in space, you upgrade a ship the sectors are randomozed.

    That's about it for the common points.

    Cool, thanks.

    For 3 I'd suggest a simple tap on the ship brings up a schematic with the slots.

    Sorry jts a bit blurry. Took it with my wife's iphone5 and the camera went unfocused as soon as I took the photo. I'll take another if need be.

    This is my iPhone 6+. Not having the black bars.

    iPhone 6 just uses 5s resolution. And I think 5s the 4/4s.
