    Good game, but timer is ridiculous. Each mission run costs 8 energy, energy refills at 1 per 10 minutes. So, 1 run = 1 hour and 20 minutes. Each mission only takes about 30 seconds to complete. This will get deleted quickly unless this changes.

    More missing items

    Got an Ion Thruster, don't see it anywhere. There should be a way to view components by themselves, not just as a part of the recipe.

    I like this game a lot. I'm working on leveling up my second character by grinding the relay and endless runs.

    So I bought the $2.99 IAP. I thought you guys should know 2 things:

    A. The Dog companion is just cosmetic
    B. Buying IAP does not improve/remove the heart refill timer

    While the second point is a little disappointing, it doesn't bother me specifically too much as I only play this game in small bursts. 1 attempt every 80 minutes though it pretty brutal.

    Is anyone else having issues with daily quest? They haven't reset once since I've first started playing a few days ago.

    So why is this game not out in Norway? Pretty sure we speak English too!

    This game is fantastically fun :) sonic/megaman mashup gives me great feels.

    Strangely slow stamina timer, however I dropped 7.99 for the 1000 gem sale pack. This gives me 33.3 stamina refills. 100 stamina takes about 30 mins to blast through at leisure. So that's at least 15 hours of constant play right there, plus the charging stamina, achievement stamina and overnight stamina. Not to mention generous amounts of gems given for free as achievements (to buy more stamina). I likely will not run out if I tried, quite generous refill amount. There isn't anything else to spend gems on, and the one actual thing there is, the purple chest. Is incredibly bad with drops so I would not waste them on it.

    Just beat the first level and got a push notification with a code for a skin in Smite. Pretty cool. I don't have Smite so PM me if you want it.

    Still loving this game. They did more server maintenance this morning. It's been playing pretty well the last two days.

    Glad to see where this game has gone. The launched version greatly improved on some of the issues in the Soft Launch (adding variety to the supers in the game). Thought I'd share this here. The developers made a commercial(?) for the game in the spirit of the old Crossfire ads I grew up seeing on TV. Super cool!

    No option for non energy premium unlock? Rhetorical question.

    Timer is god awful. Not going to support devs who clearly don't want me actively playing. Game is mildly fun otherwise.

    I'm enjoying it. Just need some key blueprint mats to drop so I can craft more valuable stuff.

    What's the deal with items we craft that can't be used with Jet? Is it because they're items to be used with another hero? Maybe they should add in the description which character(s) the items go with, unless I'm missing something. I also agree the timer is pathetically slow and ruins any semblance of the frantic pace this game goes for....I would happily pay to get rid of it, or even increase the pool two-fold....or cut the recovery time in half....anything but 10 min's for one health. I suppose that's what endless is there for though.

    EDIT: Meant Dash

    I realized some items are materials (answered my own question). Regarding daily challenges, I'm also not seeing them reset. I have the Gamecenter bug, and a few other games have daily challenges that don't reset, so I'm assuming the same is true here. So far dash with the black gloves for his weapon are getting it done. I do like Leona though. I use her on endless to quickly level her and Dash on the story missions. Jet, meh he's ok I guess.

    Timer is even worse in elite levels. Costs 16 hearts, that's 160 minutes, or 2 hours and 40 minutes to play one level that takes 30 seconds to beat. Who thinks up this shit?

    Also, what's the point of gems? Can't seem to buy anything but hearts with them...

    I'm not sure if the devs are still about but I have one small piece of feedback;

    The fact that after reviving you lose your collected coins and items seems a little unfair and illogical to me, it removes any incentive for me to revive at all. Levels aren't hard to complete enough to warrant me doing it to complete one..

    Other than this, and the timers (obviously) I'm liking this a lot.


    Also if anyone wants a smite skin pm me (my current pc cannot handle smite).

    The energy system destroys the enjoyment of this game. If there was a way to pay to get rid of it I would rate it much higher. If you still read this site devs please add a single in app purchase to have unlimited energy.

    Maybe one day they will come around. If they do I'll reinstall the game and spend some money.

    4.5 star review, despite the timer math earlier in the topic explaining how it took forever and a day just to play one 30 second round.

    Clearly, people want to play your game, devs. How about you put in that no-timer IAP, so we can, I dunno, actually play your game? Who knows, if you charge for it, you might actually make some money!
