Well I was going to send my thoughts to the devs but realised they didn't send a testflight email so I have nowhere to reply to so instead here they are in spoilers Spoiler Well I'm really disappointed here, I'm a tester, and I've played my fair share of freemium building games where they say come back later when your thing is built or when your energy is full (that kind of thing) But I was expecting more from this, so far I've played for a few hours and it feels just like any other freemium game and far far away from a galaxy on fire game. There's nothing balancing wise I can see that would change anything as it seems balanced as a free game fine, I think I've just my fill of this type of freemium nonsense as a genre. Unless I'm missing something this really has nothing to do with the galaxy on fire games, I would have much preferred a proper game with actual gameplay Well that's it. I'm done, I know it's a privilege to be invited as a beta tester but I can't/don't want to play this any more. Bottom line: there's nothing wrong with the actual game it's just boring.
I couldn't of said it better myself. While I'm sure they will probably make a killing with this game milking whales and addicts for all they can. They are taking a huge risk in my view using the GoF name. I wish this was a real multiplayer galaxy on fire ( hope I'm not breaking the NDA saying what the game is not). That game would be awesome, I would easily pay a $5 a month subscription for that. Normally I wish developers luck even if the game is not to my liking but I really hope this blows up in their face so they can get back to making real games instead of investing any more time this..."game".
