8 of 25I don't really enjoy the gameplay but there's nothing wrong with the game, could use Game Center but it doesn't look like the game is updated anymore so I won't hold my breathe or keep the game on my iDevice.
This is a great piece of software. It's well designed and executed, looks lovely and sounds fantastic. The gameplay mechanic, however? It may not be for everyone. In fact, I'll go so far as to say you're either gonna love it or hate it. I just wish there was an option to reverse the controls. But don't be fooled: this is a quality game. It's just very demanding of how you play it.
An elegant little game: Easy to start, visually captivating, hard to advance in, with soothing music as nice background to a life-or-death struggle of a whole planet.
I used to play this game all the time in 2010. A dated game, but a solid one nonetheless. This update is filled with sloppy optimizations, including, but not limited to improper formatting for iPhone 5 in many levels and multiple HUDs after levels requiring reorientation of the screen. Needs fixing
Great execution. It takes a little getting used to the controls, needs some sound effects if not music and could do with an option to turn off vibrate. Otherwise the GeoWars aesthetic mixed with the relentless action is more than any shooter could hope for at this price
Fun but kinda hard (would be better if it was only a dollar)
I’ve had this game since my first iPhone 3G in 2010 and it’s always been one of my favorites. However, I haven’t been able to play this game in several years because of incompatibility with modern iOS. Suddenly, and update comes from the developer several days ago, in 2019, claiming to bring compatibility to the game with modern phones, however the game still does not launch. I thought the developer had stopped working on the game, however that doesn’t seem to be the case, although, whatever compatibility tweaks were incorporated in the latest update were not implemented correctly.
This game is in my top three iPhone games that also include GeoDefence and FlightControl. I usually hate motion controled games but something is so right about it that I actually enjoyed the controls. Thx to the Touch Arcade podcast or I would have never found this awesome game. I will be getting his second game blue attack I think is ita name. And that will lead to me getting his third game that was mentioned in that podcast. I'm an instant fan keep up the good work.
