I also quit the game after useless grinding with no card drops. Let's see some cards for the reasonable amount of time played.
Sky Force 2014 update is available! Here's a peek of the newly added Stage 9: Card drop rates have not been altered in this release, sorry. I'm only allowed to say that cards drop more often on later levels and higher difficulties. Anyway, get your planes in the air and beat that Stage 9's boss! As always, we're happy to hear your comments, even if you've just smashed your phone, frustrated getting killed by the boss (again). Best regards, Peter, Infinite Dreams.
Considering how unrewarding/endlessly grindy/pointless the game feels for me ATM, I'm not likely to ever figure how I'm "probably playing lvl5 wrong," but if the game's risk/reward system ever gets reasonably scaled, perhaps I'll hit you up for an explanation, as well as one for that stupid first bonus level...

Starting off tough from the get go. Anyone able to beat it (Stage 9) with out using any extras? My maxed out ship seems no match for some of the enemies on Normal. Was hoping for Level 5 upgrades to ship. Since I've stopped progressing on other levels for several months now.
I have "only" 13/24 cards, can't beat some early levels on insane mode, can't even stay untouched on 7/hard or worse, on 8/easy and yet, i keep coming back since i started intense play-testing in april. And now they throw this mean, difficult, hectic but so gorgeous new level at us, brilliant ! You are in my GOTY nomination even before this update. No other game delivers me such a satisfying BING BANG KABOOM ! Thank you Peter and Team
Beating Stage 9 without any powerups is impossible I think. The boss is especially hard to beat without these.
Wow this stage 9 boss is insane. Can't even beat on normal difficulty with shop maxed out. Beware of the spider cannon!!
Any date for android release of v1.31 ? Hello , first and foremost i have to thank ID for this awesome game they've been pushing on mobile . I've been playing it a lot but interest kind of faded off since i got full medal + card + equip and a decent highscore . So of course i can't wait to get my hands on that new level (i hope it's harder than lvl 8) given that my 2 grind-run / day for the past 3 months did yield me 450k stars so i'm all set to go power-runs only on it BTW i'm on android , any date for the release on this platform ? Regards
Loving Stage 9, thanks for the update Peter & Co! Does anyone know if there are different levels on this stage, as it doesn't say 'Normal' like on previous stages... not that I'm ever going to complete this one untouched!
Wondering the same myself. I have only completed 2 of the 4 missions so I am not sure yet. But it seems like with each finished mission the x2 or x3 increases.
What in the world is meant by "rescue fallen opponents and win extra lives and stars"?? It clearly isn't taking about rescuing the civilians because there's another bullet point for that? Stage 9 is freakishly hard... Pretty much impossible to go through it untouched. The ship seriously needs more upgrade levels, especially health and guns... What's the point of upgrading health if you still get two-shot by stage 9 enemies even at maxed out hp?
Arcade If this was in an arcade in the 80s I would be broke one quarter at a time! Don't mind buying a few stars in IAP on this one. Thanks for the excellent work and the modern retro vibe
Wait the nigthmare... the boss just immortal Thanks ID for this update, very good job, the stage so beautiful.
