This is amazing. My childhood on my screen!! Only thing is that I can’t save! When I click “sign in” it just loads and won’t allow me to sign in. I can’t lose my game so I keep having to restart.
I love play this on my phone but can we have a full screen mode feature too please.
These games are great, but I think it would be a good idea to work on the pad just a teeny bit more. I find it in other games that if my thumb were to stray outside of the pad image, but the direction still stays pressed down even I'm not perfectly on the image, that it controls much much better. Get on that sega!
This game is an all time classic and probably the best side scroller shooter ever... Now get us Guardian Heroes!!
So I'm not sure if my iPod is screwing up but I can't pick up weapons in game maybe I'm doing it wrong but I had this game for system way back when and I thought I knew how to pick them up.... Help me PLeASE
Great game but it needs an update to function much better bluetooth is too slow
I downloaded this game because it was my favorite game on sega ever. But playing it on the iPhone is a horrible experience. Please change the controls somehow... Your fingers cover the whole screen and barely respond. Not worth downloading at this time.
Should find some other way of controlling especially for this kinda action game. Please update ( direction keypad should go upward). Good game though.
