FEEL THE BLAST!
Blast off and attack the evil Bydo Empire. Use everything in your arsenal to take them down – don’t be shy! It's retro, it's fun and it's a “10” on the difficulty scale. Finish this masterpiece and carve your name amongst the greats!

BuzzToronto ,

Game is great. Improve the port/experience.

Controls:

Need a sensitivity option (multiplier for touch movement).

Video:

I play right handed movement. Plus it's a bit cramped- the space I have to move horizontally and not cover the action with my thumb.

Please give me an option to move and resize the game video.

Check out the display options offered in another shmup, "Vritra"? (Not I'm not affiliated). R-type would be the ultimate experience if I could just resize and move the screen so I could have the space I like alloyed for thumb control and don't have the cover the game video.

Add the sensitivity multiplier for touch control and we're off.

I'd be more inclined to buy other shmup releases that include this display/control flexibility.

Problems

Fix game please, when in touch mode ship shoots forward by itself

Vino Lopo ,

Terrible controls

If you pull to far back with your finger on the screen your ship warps to the front on the screen and you die. Waste of money
