BLAZING STAR for Negative User Reviews

Ok start...The controls still need some work but for the price one can't expect a Cave Co. experience..Version: 1.1 Ver.

Good emulation; needs autofireThis is a faithful emulated version of the game, with good pixel scaling and expected options. However, the touch controls need some work. I'm willing to allow the fact that slide control isn't as easy to implement compared to R-Type and EDF due to the different character speeds or even built-in NeoGeo technical challenges, but an autofire option seems like it should have been a foregone conclusion -- auto by default, then hold a button to charge shots, right? Not so here. In addition, the button sizes on the iPhone version are a little too small, especially the joystick -- a scaling option would be appreciated. Nevertheless, it's a suitable emulation that just needs a little more care in the control..Version: Ver.1.00

Unplayable on iPhone 5sGame Centre turns the screen to portrait when it loads, cutting the image (not scaling it.) Unplayable..Version: 1.1 Ver.

BrokenScreen will not rotate. Broken game this is a joke, take it down or fix it. :(.Version: 1.1 Ver.

The game is great. Touch control needs work.Touch control not accurate - have to move further than seems necessary. Also it would be nice to have a touch movement multiplier like other games- where if you move a small amount the ship moves further to prevent strain on the fingers. Also please consider enabling the game video to be shrunk (e.g. include pinch zoom in video setup) and placed off to the side so the fingers don't cover the game video..Version: 1.2.1

Thank you for updatingGame is quite good and challenging..Version: 1.2

AaaaaaarghI needed a shoot em up game fix PAYED and then found it desperately needs an ios7. Please do this ASAP . It wasn't the cheapest game in the World (nor the expensive) but money's money ..Version: 1.1 Ver.

Disappointed (I Pad Mini)Im a big fan of SNK & dreamed of owning their console back in the day. I love their art & creativity, so you can imagine my excitement when seeing 'Blazing Star' for £0.69p? But wait.. why can't I see the screen? It's positioned to the left & obscures the action, also why can't I select a ship on the start menu? No matter where I press on the I pad screen I can't select a ship! Please fix SNK!.Version: 1.1 Ver.

Epic Fail on iOS7Do not buy if you have iOS7!!!!!!!!! A must buy if you never update your iPhone again!.Version: 1.1 Ver.

Display glitch !!!!!needs a fixGame is suppose to be played in landscape but is stuck on portrait but only have the screen....I can't even play the game!!!! Please fix !!!!!.Version: 1.1 Ver.

Awesome game, few hiccups iOS 11.Game is great SNK classic. Great port, but on iPad 9.7”, stage 2 background is glitchy. If dotemu fixes this it will be great once again. Please update, & thanks for keeping the classics alive!.Version: 1.2.2

Blazing half starGame on promotion half price but you only get half the game what a load of rubbish get it sorted!!!!!!!!.Version: 1.1 Ver.

Game doesn't work anymoreThe game used to work. Now it won't display properly on iPhones or newer retina iOS devices. It's a shame, because this game is otherwise one of the best shmups around.... Really disappointing....Version: 1.1 Ver.

Bad emulation.The sky background on level 1 and the level 2 glitches out..Version: 1.2.2

Ios version 13 makes the game unplayableWhen playing the game on ios version 13 on an iphone 7 plus the games buttons cover the whole screen blocking out the ability to move around the screen and actually getting a good look where the enemies are. Please update this to be compatible with the current ios version..Version: 1.2.2

ACA version is betterDon’t waste your money on this, Neo Geo Arcade Archives (ACA) version is better..Version: 1.3.1

Doesn't work in ios7The game is stuck sideways when running in iOS7. Can't orientate properly and can't start a game..Version: 1.1 Ver.

Blazing Half-starSNK need to fix the rotating screen issue. It's a good game, when it was 0s.7 compatible. Sort it pls..Version: 1.1 Ver.

CompetentAll in all this is a pretty good conversion, plays well with touch controls as well as pad. However I’d like to see some tweaks. When using pad control you can either have auto fire on or off. It would be nice to have auto fire on button press and a separate button for a charge shot. incidentally multiple buttons on a pad and not currently utilised within the game. It would also be nice if menu navigation was more intuitive with a pad. Separate to that, it seems that a small update is going to be needed on the latest iOS, as level 2 has major flickering on the background..Version: 1.3.1

PLEASE UPDATE GAMEPLEASE UPDATE GAME. I have massive buttons on my screen covering up the gameplay.... have mercy :(.Version: 1.2.2

Useless - goes into portrait modeNo matter how you turn your device it will always run in portrait mode. I can't play it. Thieves give me my money back..Version: 1.1 Ver.

Not too bad overall...The characters were a bit off my expectations, but gameplay and style are good..Version: 1.2.1

Arghhh!Unplayable on ios7. Screen rotation doesn't work, so you only see half the screen. Gutted..Version: 1.1 Ver.

Bluetooth 2 playerThe Bluetooth 2 player mode doesn't work. Gave it 2 stars for single player mode..Version: 1.2.1

Great game but...The controls are terrible, this is definitely the type of game that needs a controller to play because I can't stop being hit by bullets since trying to dodge them is a nightmare with these controls.Version: Ver.1.00

Dont work on ipad only portrait cuts screenDones not work on ipad. It only displays in portrait mode and yet it cuts half the screen! Ipad 16gb 3rd Gen IOS 7.0.3 Please fix or remove from store until you have a solution this is a ripoff!! Customers dont buy this product untill it is fixed its a trick to keep your money with a game that does not work!!! Will update review when fixed!!!.Version: 1.1 Ver.

Blazing star will not work on iOS7Screen will not rotate in iOS 7 so the game is stuck in the wrong position on screen, making the game unplayable. Please fix this ASAP!.Version: 1.1 Ver.

Don't be lazy!Don't be lazy and update to the latest iOS already. Saying on the overview that it might not work on the latest iOS is not good enough,ofcourse everyone(99% at least) will have the latest iOS update!.Version: 1.1 Ver.

Can't play it on ipad2For some reason only half the screen is displayed in vertigo and won't flip to horizontal.....Version: 1.1 Ver.

Issues with os7The game worked great before the os7 update, I hope you guys fix this, one of my fav games!!!.Version: 1.1 Ver.

Credits PLEASE!Don't get the 4 stars this game has because it only gets one from me (The one playing the game). It's humanly impossible to get anywhere in this game with the number of lives and credits this game offers. At least make it an option to increase the number of continues if you so choose..Version: 1.1 Ver.

UnplayableThere are numerous game breaking bugs that make this unplayable. I cant believe this is even on the App Store . Dont waste your money. 🙁.Version: 1.2.2

No iPhone 5 supportNeeds to at least have borders so the screen registers when your finger slips off. You don't need to make it widescreen, you can even have an option to slide the screen to the right and your finger won't block the screen much..Version: 1.1 Ver.

Cannot start the game.I have been unable to play this game on an iPad Air Cannot select the start game menu option from the start screen. Tried to get help from the developers web site only to find its or sale..Version: 1.2.1

Doesn't always workI have two v1 iPads. Games works on one and gives blank screen on the other ( with cellular connection) not sure why.Version: Ver.1.00

Needs updatingWas easily 4 stars before, but doesn't run properly in iOS7. Screen is stuck rotated and the game is unplayable. Please fix!.Version: 1.1 Ver.

GlitchOnce you switch the controls, you can't change them back.Version: 1.1 Ver.

UnplayableCant rotate the screen its horrible, though its a good classic game, but this game need to be updated, i bought this game So i can play it not just for display on my phone. Piece of rubbish..Version: 1.1 Ver.

A faithful port of a hidden gemOriginally on the Neo-Geo, Blazing Star is one of the many great unknown games that graced this ill-fated system. Fans of sh'mups owe it to themselves to play this hidden gem of the genre. ...but maybe not this version. The port is faithful enough, but the controls leave something to be desired. The current setup isn't suited to the iOS format. An autofire toggle would be a good start..Version: Ver.1.00

Multiplayer broken.No improvements have been implemented for the multiplayer mode. Only single player is worthwhile. Stay away if u like coop..Version: 1.2

Avoid on newer devicesThis is unplayable (like all snk games) on newer (retina devices are not really new anymore snk, come on...) devices. specifically on iphone 5s AND ipad air the screen displays in landscape mode but the app is forced to portrait mode and this cuts off most of the screen. An email to snk support has not yet yielded any results either. Avoid this app if you have kept up at all with apple devices in the last 2 years... Money has so far been lost on this app..Version: 1.1 Ver.

Those touch controls...Ugh ! Such a great game ruined by touch controls. SNK, you are supposed to be in the top three of arcade kings. None of the control scheme for moving the ship is good enough for this kind of game. No need for autofire but fix the virtual joystick or the "touch ship" controls. I think you've actually manage to do a worse virtual joystock than Square Enix with their games (Chrono Trigger and Secret of Mana ) and yours truly need a great control scheme. Because otherwise, what a great game. Great port, still holds up, but the controls...THE CONTROLS ! :P Seriously at this point big names like SNK, Capcom and Square have no reason whatsoever to come up short with bad touch controls like that. And you should realize how much better the publicity if one of those could finally nail it !.Version: Ver.1.00

Do not downloadDoesn't work on ios 7; don't get it until it's fixed....if it ever is......Version: 1.1 Ver.

UpdatesCan the game be updated for the latest iOS please?.Version: 1.2.1

Blooddy bugged on ipad miniI want my money back ..only 2 thirds screen there so cant select ship and start ..pants.Version: 1.1 Ver.

Needs Precision That iOS Can't OfferEven with auto fire enabled, this accurate port of a classic NeoGeo Shmup isn't enjoyable to play on iOS devices due to the lack of precision controls. Good for a quick dose of nostalgia, just realize what you're getting into..Version: 1.1 Ver.

Please fix iOS7 / iPhone 5sOne of the best shooters, but doesn't function correctly since upgrading. Very sad as I spent good money on it! PLEASE FIX!.Version: 1.1 Ver.

BooI really love this game but it doesn't work anymore. Sorry but just because you warn it doesn't work with os7 doesn't make it ok to take so long with an update for those of us who bought the game well before that. Fix this now ! One star until then and I will not purchase any more of this devs games . Seriously I can't even play it anymore because all I can see is half of the screen.Version: 1.1 Ver.

Not happy, doesn't even deserve 1 starI jumped at the chance to be able to play this on my phone... Trouble is, you can't play it if your IOS is up to date. If you've not got IOS 7 this game might just work! I can't get past the select screen and even start the game. There is a little disclaimer stating that they can't guarantee it will work on IOS 7???? Basically, you can buy it but you can't play it! This is ridiculous, avoid at all costs. It doesn't look like these guys plan on fixing the problem..Version: 1.1 Ver.

So Close - And Yet So FarThis is not only a classic shooter - but one of the all time greats. Great graphics, sound, gameplay...add up to one the best Shoot-em Ups of all time. So when I saw that this was available as an app for the iphone I was beyond stoked. And everything is there. The only problem is that the control just does not work. I am not sure if the detection is off or what but you can't have the types of delay that I've experienced with this in a bullet heavy SHMUP, and it's everything from being able to move the ship to the fire button. I do not know how they are going to fix it, but until they do you should wait. The reality is that the game is not playable with the current control set-up. I do not believe I am the only one logging this particular complaint either. Lots of folks gave this a 5 star rating (which is fine based on the game's actual merits), but without the ability to actually play it I can't give it the rating I also think it deserves..Version: Ver.1.00

Wow, no leaderboardsA shooter with no leaderboards? What's the point? The only leaderboards I see in Game Center are for a d-pad control. No touch control. Besides that the touch controls are bad! DotEmu fixed the controls and has leaderboards for Raiden Legacy, but has done nothing here. Even if you like this game, I'd skip it. There are a few other poorly done shmups out there too; people need to learn that a shmup on iOS is touch controlled. There is no speed difference for different ships. And for the love of Sasquatch, shmups are about scoring - give us a leaderboard!.Version: 1.1 Ver.

One of the best shmups ever made, but...The emulation is not cycle exact, and the level 2 parallax scrolling flickers horribly. It’s distracting and almost unplayable that way. How did this pass QC? Plays better on my Raspberry Pi 3 than on my much more powerful iPhone, ironically..Version: 1.2.2

Not working in iOS 7Seriously, SNK Playmore. You need to fix this. It's a great game; it just hasn't worked since iOS 7 came out..Version: 1.1 Ver.

Love this game but I can’t download itDev, please update it to run on iOS 11.Version: 1.2.1

Screen clipplingThis game has the same issue as Metal Slug 3 in which it stays rotated in landscape orientation while the iPad rotates the screen (not the game) to portrait. Completely unplayable..Version: 1.1 Ver.

IOS 7 woeWas a 5 star game - now 1 star. Doesn't run on ios7. Please update.Version: 1.1 Ver.

Great game, but lazy port with terrible controlsThe dpad has awful spacing and sensitivity. Space invaders infinity gene did this best, but I'm not certain that solution would help this game. I feel SNK should rework the level pacing to fit the slower, less responsive nature of touchscreen controls. That way, the game will feel more natural on the device..Version: Ver.1.00
