Solid shooter

Honestly, I haven't experienced the crashing issues others have mentioned on my iPad 3 (knock on wood) and I'm on the third "world." There is a little too much grinding in the game as you're leveling up your planes, but it's a pleasant enough gameplay experience and hasn't lost me yet. Dig the graphics and challenge... Reminds me a bit of Jamestown, except without the volume of content. Controls are a bit driftier than the controls many iOS shooter fans have come to love in Cave's games, but they still feel good (they don't feel laggy or slow, like the iOS version of Raiden). Overall, I hope the debs continue to develop this game. It has great potential and is totally worth the $1 asking price. UPDATE: Just beat the final boss and not a single crash. Assuming those experience crashes are on older devices. Anyway, I seriously hope new content is released eventually. I'd totally pay for some new levels & planes. Pretty burnt out on the three included worlds after all the grind that was required to upgrade my planes (and I didn't even max them out). Again, this is a solid shooter and I've really come to like the controls and play mechanics. Well done.

This is so peak

This is honestly my most favorite game that I have ever played before, I first started playing this game when I was like 9 years old and this game still remains like a banger. I just really wish that you guys add like more pilots, enemies, bosses to the game because this is so freaking awesome and I just really love this game, absolutely a masterpiece for sure.

Good at first

This game will not stop deleting my progress.

iOS 8 update

Really glad to have AoL up and running again, but with the update, there are a few music bugs as well as screen bugs. Hope you can fix these. Either way, the game is still pretty awesome

Don't expect too much.

It looks like it is good game, but some of the graphics is not that high res. It has a tendancy to crash repeatedly -- It did for me 4 times before the first game, and 3 times trying to play the second level. It looks like a 1942 clone -- but they use the collecting of crosses to unlock things -- which you can also buy if you don't want to do it the hard way. An all to common method of paying for free games. Not sure it works here until the stability issue is handled. The crashes add frustrasion that overwhelms the nostalgic shooter fun that was intended.

Not worth it

I had some issues when I first started the app, including a few crashes. After that, I had to figure out some of the mechanics myself, as it's not a super-intuitive design. After spamming a boss fight for some upgrade coins, I got stuck on a level with no instruction. The difficulty curve is somewhat ridiculous, to say the least. All in all, I figured I could be generous and buy a new app to try, as it got 'featured' on the store. I regret the decision, even for just $1.99, and would love a refund, even if I'm sure they won't offer one.

Do you want my money?

Game play is good (classic vertical scroller) and I enjoyed it enough to make an in-app purchase ... BUT,when attempting to make said purchase I was horrified to see that none of the bundles of currency for sale actually had prices listed. Thus meaning I had to blindly purchase an item without knowing how much it costs!! Needless to say I was not willing to do this and sale was lost. Not smart if you ask me, but what do I know, maybe they don't need my money.

Really nice

I appreciate the look of the planes and the characters. It's nicely balanced for a casual game. I have a number of iOS 194x shooters-at the moment this is my favorite. As an aside, I've had no stability issues over several sessions on an iPad 2 and an iPhone 5.
