    Played some of this tonight. It's solid simplistic fun. I like the blend of Galaga with later shmups that had bosses and rewarded accuracy.

    Thanks for the game. I just wish it wouldn't crash every time I'm close to defeating the second boss into the game

    Could you send me a PM with some details about the crash when you get a chance? Device, OS version, etc.

    I'm looking into it!

    Thanks!

    Ive just submitted Galaxoid version 1.2 to Apple for review. This is mainly to address a couple of bugs, but also includes the Auto-Fire feature ;)

    Galaxoid verison 1.2

    Bug fixes:
    • Fixed possible crash during Boss Battles
    • Fixed bug when pressing and sliding off of pause button
    • Fixed bug where rate dialog would possibly popup on resume during game

    Feature:
    • Added Auto-Fire feature. Tap to fire, Press and hold for Auto-Fire! (This should appease everyone.)

    Apple review times are currently taking an average of 7 days so Ill let everyone know as soon as its live.

    Thanks everyone!

    Finally made good on my promise and purchased. Glad I did because this is a nice little mobile game; fun to pick up for one session or a bunch and great music. After a few plays my suggestions would be:

    1 a replay button so you can avoid going bak to the main menu after every play

    2 might be hard to implement but something like a barrel roll to avoid enemies coming at you horizontally (maybe a double tap on the left side?)

    More power ups could be fun too, thought gain I don't know how easy or difficult these would be to implement. Thanks again for your work and cool game.

    Great Game

    Really enjoyed this game. Did crash after level 50 but it still kept the score. No other issues at all. Great retro shooter from my childhood. :):)

    You made it to level 50! :) Thats awesome. Did you actually beat the last boss?

    If you have anymore details about the crash could you send me a PM?

    I really appreciate you playing and its really cool to know you got that far! I assume thats you at the top of the leader board?
