DOOM II 17+

It’s a great port of doom2 but the controls aren’t that great. I have gotten used to the touch controls but it took quite some time. If the developers aren’t gonna fix them. At least enable a way to connect a blue tooth keyboard and mouse. Keyboard and mouse does work but you can’t turn or fire your weapon. I feel like it’s such a low effort fix. They should also allow button mapping for touch controls as well. The activate button is in a weird spot on the screen. I’m just hoping they take all these comments into consideration since 90% of them are complaining about the controls. Oh and one more thing! Plz allow online multiplayer so we can go demon hunting with friends. I hope you take this review into consideration. Thank You! -David

First off, I’m going to say, this is an EXCELLENT port of Doom II! I really appreciate this last update, especially brining back the classic title screen!

Now, this update made the controls and map FUNCTIONALLY WAY better than before, and the gameplay is all the better for it and much appreciated, BUT the downside is that AESTHETICALLY the control and map button icons are really bland looking.

I would recommend the following:

- Using the in game open bare fist sprite for the pickup/interact hand button control.

- The LOOK (not the functionality) of the joystick in the last version for the current joystick, but keep the functionality of the current joystick.

-Maybe add some color (but still be transparent enough to see through) to the shoot bullseye button.

- The map function WORKS great but it would LOOK better as a roll or grid map icon (in color as well).

-Lastly, an option to adjust control size, location and transparency would be much appreciated.

Overall, this is a fantastic port of a ln undisputed gaming classic and the latest update is certainly appreciated and most definitely a step in the right direction. Please keep up the great work devs!

I’m glad Doom 2 finally has an iPhone port, but I wish they’d kept the mappable control scheme of the original Doom port from a few years back. I used to map it so it was just like this new control scheme, except I’d just slide my right thumb up to fire, and it worked perfectly. This double tap to autofire thing is kinda dumb considering half the arsenal is automatic weapons and a lot of the enemies require concentrated fire. The rhythm that you have to double tap is also oddly specific, far too slow for the kind of quick reaction time this game requires on Ultra Violence. Half the time I get it to work, it’s by accident, which made Barrels of Fun exactly the wrong kind of hell. The analogue movement makes thin platforms like in The Chasm a lot easier to navigate though, so that’s a plus. The first iPhone port just got the controls so right, I wish they could be brought back.
