A very good update.. Thank you! I would still like to see some Music and better sound effects upon first opening up the app (just to add a little more polish to it).. This game is now very playable and more enjoyable due to the addition of switching between motion and touch control (i prefer the touch control).. Well done, if you like vertical scrollers you'll be pleased.

Good controls. That said, inexplicably small sprites and generic ship designs. Incredibly slow shot speed, boring power ups, and same repeating background. Uninstalled after 10min of playing.

Nice little shooter, has some cool sound effects, and its not too difficult and it is entertaining to play, the graphics aren't too bad either. It needs a better power up to give the player more rapid shooting as this would be more satisfying to the player, and if there already is, then it needs to be introduced eariler in the game. Also needs some better power up's in general. Some screens arent stretched to the iphone screen either, and the text rolls off the iphones screen on the title screen, this needs to be addressed. Other then that its a fun game thats accessible and easy to play.

if that... I got it because it looked like a comp game I used to play. and it is a lot like it but it's just not fun any more. you use your finger to navigate your little bitty ship on the screen. no controls to shot (it does it automatically) and ur really just sitting there looking at the same thing over and over... and over. and to people writing reviews without buying the game, quit wasting your time and ours. just move on.

I bought this game intitially when it was controlled by the touchscreen. I actually preferred that control scheme over the tilt control in the new version. Its just too hard to control when the screen is full of bullets and enemies. I'd like to see an option menu to choose control method and shot speed. Otherwise, its a very beautiful game and quite fun. The controls just needs to be perfected! Thanks!

Fun for about 5 minutes. Super glitchy to the point you couldn't see the enemies, and bullets would disappear. Menu screens were tiny, which was odd.

Texts and title screen need to be bigger.<br/>Ships and aliens need to be bigger.<br/>Need controller.<br/>Better graphics.<br/>Better game play.<br/><br/>I give this a star because it is so poor on everything. Do some changes then I will raise the stars.

I bought this with the expectation that it would be a vertical shooter in the vain of 1942 and would offer some good fun...and while it accomplishes this concept on paper, the execution is rather poor. The only 2 options on the main menu are &quot;Play&quot; and &quot;Quit,&quot; the other &quot;Levels&quot;, which are described by random names are not at all explained and appear to do nothing when pressed. In fact, pressing ANYWHERE on the main menu takes you directly to the game...there are no settings or options whatsoever. If you're lucky, you'll get a screen to pop up at RANDOM moments before starting a game which asks you to choose a ship, but when you attempt to choose one, you're just instantly thrown right into the game...uhh...what? Gameplay itself is somewhat subpar at the moment...moving the ship around with your fingertips is fairly accurate, but the ship tends to lag and disappear in and out of view too often..it is extremely buggy. The background could also use a change at some point, as it gets old fast. A bit of variety with the enemy couldn't hurt either. Finally, there is absolutely NO SOUND AT ALL IN THIS GAME! Even free apps have some music/sound effects, and this $4.00 game can't even provide that...i cannot tell you how annoying it is to play a game like this, which always seems to have so much going on in-game, in utter silence. Bottom line, if you're planning on buying this...hold off until these issues are addressed in an update. Otherwise, you will be sorely disappointed at what you get for the cost...you're better off spending the $3.99 on a few .99-cent apps that offer so much more than this game.
