Pros and cons of Super Arc Light app for iPhone and iPad
Super Arc Light app good for
Its a good time waster and is fun and has a cool concept, however the the controls where a bit hard to well... Control
The controls are a little hard to master at first, but its an interesting take on a classic genre. Worth the money. Id like to see perhaps a more artistic UI (smooth transitions, buttons, maybe a variety of backgrounds)
This is a really fun game the controls are kinda hard at first but other then that the game is fun
I bought it. Now its free app of the week. Dang. Its really fun tho
Quite a well made rage-like shooter, reminds me of the old arcade games. The timing is everything in it, and I do enjoy playing this game.
Great work :)
Its a great game that I love, but the only thing you should change is that the weapon bar should only deplete if you shoot, still my favourite game
Some bad moments
After buying this poorly controlled, repetitive and frankly, boring game on the recommendation of Apple Editors, I have now decided my 99 cents was really for the purchase of knowledge...knowledge that I should never trust hype...even when it comes with the endorsement of "Apple Editors".
Just not a fan of the controls moving opposite ways each time.
The greet visual style doesnt make for the awkward / frustrating control scheme. Like the other reviewer, Im going to be wary of Editors Choice titles from now on I think. Ive been burned twice by them. :(
The controls are horrendous. On a platform with so many options for controls and such innovative games, why are we playing a single tap-and-hold-anywhere style game. Its 2016!
Retro, boring. Simplistic, waste of time. Monotonous, dont bother. 1 star at best.
Interesting at first but gets really boring really fast, which isnt what you want from a one-thumb commute-brigtener.
