Great little time killer

"Not enough fuel to race. Watch a video for 5 fuel?" How about.... no.


Cute Idea - Poorly Executed
Musicman dg

Look, there's only about enough content to occupy you for an hour or two (I three starred every event within a two hour time frame) and it seems the plane you choose to buy is inconsequential, and the game leaves little incentive to unlock them all. Along with this, the power ups you get during races are incredibly dull (only three options), and only the boost is actually reliably helpful, it's too hard to aim the gun. Aside from that be aware that there are in-app purchases (1500 coins for a dollar) that or you have to watch 15-30 second ads before each race. That being said, it is a cute idea, and the level design is good, but the game feels largely incomplete. Shouldn't have been released yet. I don't recommend it.


Going down in flames...

3 races and suddenly you either watch an add or you spend money. No thanks. Watching adds is ok, but at least have a refuel timer or something.


Meh.
Mutak

Squishy controls, confusing camera, money-grubbing energy system that doesn't even grant you enough starting energy to make you want to play more. Interesting visuals, good idea, but poorly executed in general.


Don't support progress throttling.
Red Letters

Progress throttling is when a game prevents you from progressing at your own pace via some sort of in-game currency. You can either wait for it to regenerate on its own, or you can purchase more of the resource for cash. This is a very disappointing development in gaming. Please do not support any game that uses this payment model.


One Step Forward, About A Million Steps Back

You know, this is kind of hard for me to write. I had high hopes for this game, and when I saw there was an update when checking my apps, I was pretty excited. ...until I found out it was in pursuit of this very, very hard-to-sell free-to-play model like every other app out there, which ironically makes me, and I wager, people like me, want to play them less. I liked this game, thought it was a fun way to kill time, and even if it was very incomplete, I wanted to see it grow, but this is growing in all the wrong places. Perhaps you could have persuaded more people to play this game by keeping the original price point and then offering more game to play in an update?


Disrespectful change
Coloursound

I was one of the first buyers who not only believed in the developer, but gave them my early support by BUYING the game. Now, a slap in the face. Game has gone free with ads and paywalls. I don't appreciate the disrespectful manner the developer is working within. Ripped off for early supporting and it hurts. I recommend against these poor ethics and urge people to go elsewhere


Crashes on the first screen
Mr.F and John

Unplayable because of game braking bug. Can't play the game. Glad I got it for Free. Please fix so I can give an actual review.


Poor execution
aXis1eGend

Performance is laggy. It's not a game built for iOS. Originally this was a flash game. I could only say that the devs ported it wrong.
