Ratings and Reviews
Very fun. Hard to put down! (couple of small suggestions)
The lite version hooked me but I had a hard time convincing myself to spend $6. It seems that procrastination pays off in the AppStore.
I really enjoy this game. Certainly addictive. I still get a kick out of the characters talking. Good graphics. Great controls. I've had no crashes. The only issue I've had is that switching between Story and Arcade reset the current Story (chapter 8) to chapter 2. Also, I had access to all the weapons even though I hadn't earned any cash yet. No, I just plan to complete story mode prior to playing the arcade mode.
A couple of suggestions. First, a pause button is absolutely necessary. Second, the ability to autosave in the middle of a level is also needed. All level progress is lost if I quit the app or if a call comes in. Maybe just save the current number of enemies and cash then start the player back at the base next time.
Fun app! Need update to latest iOS version
Update: App still works with iOS 10 on iPhone 7 but it keeps telling me that it needs to be updated. I'm afraid that if I update to the next version it won't work anymore. Where are you guys? I have a paid version after all.
I've had a lot of fun and back and neck aches playing this game, but it's in need of updates. I've played this app to it's last level on the iPad retina, unfortunately you cannot calibrate it because when you tap on the option it crashes. Guys! Please make an iPad version! After all it is more comfortable playing it on a bigger screen.
Control
Supposed to be able to calibrate accelerometer, but still can't play in heads up orientation.
