Pros and cons of Super Laser: The Alien Fighter app for iPhone and iPad
Super Laser: The Alien Fighter app good for
Ive been waiting a long time for this game to come out, and I generally wait to see a few ratings and reviews before a purchase. This time however, I made an exception - and this game doesnt dissapoint!
Smooth gameplay, and the best looking visuals in a top down shooter.
4 stars for now, waiting to see if the 3$ price tag includes a few updates like additionnal levels, more customisable ships, more weapons, unlockables etc..
Edit: oh, one little gripe - the bomb (which has an insanely cool animation by the way) button is really hard to hit if youre right handed.
The full version and lite are excellent! The sound is much, much improved. Explosions are rich and sound real. At $0.99 it is a STEAL!!!
I tried many fight shooting games on iphone,this one is the best !
This is one of the best scrolling shooters i have played in a long while. All the power ups are great exept for maybe that one blue lazer that ony shoots forward. The contros are very nice. The graphics are great. There are an interesting variety of enemise thar you can shooy down and the boss fights are cool. I cant seem to find anything wrong with this game. Its also free for a limited time so get it while its free or youll missout on a great game.
Wow... This brings back old memories. Great graphics and good sound. Actual gives u different control options which is very nice. You must be really quick because the stages gets harder and harder. I cant believe its free so get this now before the price goes back up.
Super Laser is an outstanding shooter that should be in every shmup fans collection. The production quality is amazing. Definitely a steal for the price.
Some bad moments
The first thing I dont like is the graphics and second of all its just soooooo crappy. Sorry guys I like to tell the truth about things.
Very poor controls and easy isnt easy. The health and weapon bar is at the bottom which is a deal breaker. When controlling you cant see your health bar. Mortal skies or anything else is much better. Pass
Game looks very nice, but its laggin badly on old 3g models. They need to separate games that require new iphone hardware to perform normally.
The guys who made this game did a pretty bad job with the controls. The response rate for my finger is way too slow. It makes the game almost non-playable and when you lift you finger up the plane inexplicably goes to the middle of the screen. The only game where I saw a decent implementation of the controls is Tyrian.
The graphics are really nice BUT the game is way to hard BUT thats because the controls are way to sluggish!!! Please speed up the controls! Btw touch is the only way to even try to play this game...
If you have money to buy this buy air attack. Its way more fun.
