The controls take a bit of getting used to, but are so responsive and clean that it's worth the learning curve. If you attached the game to a controller, you'd think it was a well made game from the time of snes or Sega Genesis. It's challenging too, keeps you thinking on your feet. A truly rare find, and well worth the 5 dollars for the full version. If you like Run and Gun gaming, pick up the full version for 5 dollars. You won't regret it.

Amazingly fun well-designed game. With built-in controller support right out of the box. Played it with my razer kishi and it worked extremely well right out of the box. The default mapping for the face buttons was a little weird. But they can be remapped in the settings so not a huge deal. I've also read that it supports Bluetooth controllers but I haven't personally tested it yet. Gameplay is extremely fun and very well designed.

This game is HARD, even on normal difficulty. And that's a good thing, though my thirtieth attempt at the second boss means I doubt I'll ever actually finish the game. Also the fact that checkpoints don't save between sessions is annoying, so sometimes I can't be bothered starting a session. But the TLC in this game is so obvious I don't regret the purchase at all. This one will stay on my device for a long time.

Stunning game, in every way. The tactical feature of hiding in shadows or behind blocks adds so much and the boss battles are epic. Love all the knowing nods to the 80s/90s, this game is probably the best thing I've played on android. Only glitch for me is the way the screen moves when the character jumps up. It's too slow and this is a problem on later levels, especially the final battle with Shogun where he is off screen half the time which is a nightmare. Other than that, se-e-e-ensational!

Wow. I don't normally leave reviews but I played the demo and immediately bought the game lol. Awesome incredible fun. The art, the music, the gameplay. This is not just a random run and gun, you have to use some stealth and skill to beat the levels. The story and the voice acting is awesome. It is WELL worth the money I rated it 5 stars. Best 4 Bucks I ever spent. One thing I will say, I'm playing this game with a Bluetooth controller and couldn't imagine the game without it.

How do I give more than 5 stars? This game is insanely good, and feels like the best of an old-school arcade game somehow maximized for today's powerful cell phones - especially the widescreen! Playing it with a controller mapped the way I want, it immediately feels like an old favorite. I bought the full version just minutes into playing. This is one I'll go back to over and over - great, simple, visceral action! Amazing 64bit-style graphics!

This game scratches an itch I didn't even know I had. The art is fantastic. It captures the futuristic dystopian theme perfectly. The gameplay is 2D side scrolling shooting and it is a lot of fun. Most of the time you are just shooting bad guys. But there is a little bit of strategy to each level and you get some fun weapon variety. The controls work as well as mobile controls can work. Keep making games like this and I will keep buying them.

I'm really enjoying this game. The bosses can be a real challenge, even on easy! (I must admit I ended up switching down to "easy" on my first play-through). "The harder the game, the more satisfying it is to beat," said me (just now). Great audio. I love the 80s stylised bit-tunes, and the voice acting adds another layer of quality and polish. Thanks, coffee Stain Publishing for a solid game not marred by overly aggressive or indeed any monetization. Yay!

This game is an absolute masterpiece. From the retro graphics to a killer score soundtrack, it has it all. I simply relish the boss mechanics, contemporary humor and movie references, voice-overs, the different eneny factions, plethora of weapons, the player choices and balance of difficulty. Major kudos to the development staff for an awesome job well done. And If you decide to make a series out of this, I'll definitely will be there to throwdown, I mean, Huntdown.
