Well...

Good game just the thing that keeps bothering me is that when you test, your "bullets"(what?) can't be restored
Great potential…

This game could have been great with a bit more care. As it stands, though, it would have been better off as just a fireworks app, with no game around it at all. The half-baked game that is there detracts from the fireworks simulator underneath. And with a bit more polish, the game could have been great, too. For one thing, a bit more care to the user experience would have done wonders: 1) There is no tutorial or manual. I don't mind games that ask me to experiment and learn on my own except… 2) It is very easy (if not inevitable) to screw yourself over while experimenting to learn the system, leaving the game unplayable unless you uninstall and reinstall. (If losing your materials for not liking your test-firing is not a bug, then it is a terrible design decision.) This is compounded by… 3) The UI is incredibly touchy, which results in many, many false clicks. Which might not be so bad except… 4) There is NO way to take back an action, even obvious ones like pulling a bullet back out of an unfinished rocket. Combined with the previous 3, this means you are constantly accidentally getting yourself stuck in situations where the only thing the game will let you do is expend your limited resources until it becomes unplayable. Beyond that, the gameplay lacks any gameplay to speak of. The scores given to performances are never explained, and there's never any stated goal, so there's no way to improve or get better at the game. The game isn't COMPELLING. And thus it feels like merely a token impediment to enjoying the more satisfying fireworks-creation and -exhibition aspects. This app had so much potential, and as a custom fireworks simulator, it works well. But you have to suffer through the horrible UI and the "game" to use it, and that ruins the whole package.

Great game, but needs quite a few fixes like not losing your supplies when u test fire, very bad decision. Also how do u know how much space each bullet takes up without putting them in the rocket and when u make a mistake ur kind of screwed. Like i said great game but needs some tweaks
Total waste

Even after reading all the bad reviews I figured I had nothing to lose since it was free. It truly is one of the worst designed and poorly executed apps I've ever seen and I have seen many. As mentioned there are no instructions or guidance of any kind and really nothing to do but look at crappy fireworks that you create mostly by accident. A waste of time.
Good game, but always freezes..

Thr game is good i like the game set around it but it always has some problems its the fourth time i had to download then delete this app. And i can't take back the bullets i put in and they disappear right after i do a show even though i just put it in and not tested it yet.
