Ratings and reviews

Game is no longer playable. Ever since the new version. Controls need to be redesigned. The game is too fast at normal mode. Needs a time sequence option to make it playable. So user can either speed up the play or slow it down. For being version 2 sure has a lot of bugs. Sometimes the ship goes in super speed one way and no way to stop it.

Cool. But the mobile experience could be improved quite a lot, if only they added better controlling methods. Should not be too hard to add that d-pad -like aiming control and/or add the croshair somewhere there where the ship is pointing?(noscoping is hard🙈) At least currently, this game is much more enjoyable on PC.

I would give 5 stars . But the controls are insanely bad. It force opens my ROG gaming center when accelerating, the left and right buttons randomly lock on. Same as the forward one. This game is AWESOME but needs some fixes..please fix it!
