Alpha Squadron 2 for Android
Blown away by this game on mobile. Sometimes games like this are let down by dodgy controls but this is perfect. Barrel roll swipe was annoying till I worked out how to enable the on screen button. Just finished campaign 1. The last level was difficult. Just gonna buy campaign 2. Well worth the money for such a good game ????
Enjoyable. Great potential. Very disappointed. $ for the game, & ships,Ok. $ for ammo. SERIOUSLY! Target reticle is all over the place No range finder, auto level or lock on, Secondary objectives unmarked. Achievements and level increase unclear. Please finish, fix or rethink. Thank you.
Glad I found out the "full game" doesn't include both campaigns before I bought it. Thanks guys.
This game won't let me play anything except the tutorials and first mission. It won't let me play anything else. It's a piece of junk!
Pay to play. Even after purchase, next episode and every additional ammo costs money. Disappointed. Great story and graphics though.
The game is AWESOME! But can you please make the full game free so I can get it or at least put dogfight on the free trial. A game like this should be free just sayin
I am in love with this game this is the best game I have played in a long time is true you have to buy the game spend money but its worth the cost keep up the good work man I have it on my tablet the graphics are great the control are sweet and the story is excellent I don't know why people is complaining about because the game is great thanks for an awesome game. I do have one question are you guys making any other updates like a 3rd campaign mode or more missions if so that would be great I am a big fan now tank you for this awesome game...PS I am having trouble with one of the missions on my 2nd campaign mode mission 8 its lagging bad and shots my device down where I have my game downloaded can you fix that problem?
Why can't we play the other missions I mean it's awesome but can't we do all of the first campaign indeed of buying it?
There is no question that this is an amazing game... but you need to make it clear that this is the lite version, and you can only play one mission.
### Update: I contacted Customer service 5 more stars### First thing, several people asked for help with the same issue I am having,which is that the app stops loading at the splash screen. The second thing is that I read a lot of these "reviews" and you only respond to praise never when asked for assistance. I paid for the second part of the game (you know, what you call the "Full Version") but have not been able to load the game since. Some help finding a solution would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
I would hate to be such a sore loser then to have to cheet at the end of a game to keep you from winning!!! What I mean by that is, the barrel roll button completely stopped working until you get hit by a missile then it works fine, right in the middle when you need it the most you're fired button and slow button mysteriously stopped working for no reason, and if that's not enough to keep you from winning, your ship for some reason suddenly goes out of control! !!!! if you can't win it, why invent it!!!!!
Cannot get bomb to work, no game pad key works for bomb, silly mindless nothing travelling between boring arbitrary points in space (tutorial) makes it boring, frustrating and to top it, it's very unclear which game pad buttons to use. This game IS available for the Nvidia Shield console, I installed it from the Play store on my PC which allowed the app to be installed on the Shield, so it should be marked as not compatible so others do not waste their time.
Barrel roll swiping and other on-screen controls work inconsistently. Despite the update announcement, there has never been an option for a barrel roll button, let alone an actual button, on either version (free & paid) that I played. I'm no longer anticipating this game to get better.
This game is like Rogue Squadron or Colony Wars on your mobile. Stunning graphics and fluid controls. The game publisher is a bit money hungry though and has a different definition what 'full' means to most people. You pay for the 1st campaign, then again for the 2nd, then again per extra new ship you'd like, then again for extra ammo. If you want the 'full' game be prepared to open your wallet. It's still worth getting the 2 campaigns though, but paying even more for a few ships is greedy.
Im really amazed with everything from controls to graphics.but was too heavy for the budget.guess its only meant for the rich.but great work guys.too bad i was looking forward to this masterpiece.
Looks great - Installed on Android TV (Razer Forge) - has full leanback launcher support. I can use the controller in the menus (mostly - it doesn't seem intuitive selecting menu options)
This game won't let me play anything except the tutorials and first mission. It won't let me play anything else. It's a piece of junk!
What the hell I have done the first mission multiple times because I thought you have to be a certain rank to unlock the second mission but no matter what rank I am I can't unlock the mission and that is BULL sh$t so please fix that then I'll rate five stars. This game is awesome and sooooo fun but it's annouying that I can't do anything else in that game please PLEASE FIX!!!!
Would have given it five states if it wasn't only a trial version with the full version choosing five bucks. Also, no joy pad compatibility.
Feeling a bit greedy are we? Game pretty cool though.
Definitely gives off a Rogue Squadron vibe. The wingman mechanic is fun too. As a caveat, when playing with a Bluetooth controller, squad commands and primary weapons are mapped to the same button. No bueno.
Thus is probably one of the greatest sifi spaceship games I've ever played but for free you can only play 1 mission only one I would give it 4 if you could play 3 for each for free and 5 I it was all free
The game opens and then closes as soon as I turn it on will put five star if you fix the glitch
I'll rate 5 stars if u set all mission unlocked B)
Why can't we play the other missions I mean it's awesome but can't we do all of the first campaign indeed of buying it?
Why cant we get a taste of the other game modes? Just 1 map on survival and dogfight and 3 missions. Please
I played the demo and I was amazed! This is my new favorite game. Controls are smooth lots of action love the way you have squad command. Music is perfect this is a must have game on mobile! I'm sold! great job on this game!
Great game, good interaction. I read one review stating that you cannot do barrel rolls with a swipe screen, easiest fix is to go into controls and add the button. Bad news for us that love a total free bee - you only get the tutorials and one combat mission in this free version. If however you are prepared to pay for the full game I think that you will find this a great full 3D space shooter. Well done developers.
Absolutely awesome game and one of my favourites. Needs the ability to calibrate the control pad being used though as it won't detect half the buttons. No secondary fire, secondary select or wingmanview toggles. 5 stars if you can fix this. Lots of people pointlessly moaning about paying for this, I'd happily pay double for this game. Worth every penny.

This looks like it could have been a good game but its unplayable. Enemy targets are to small up against a white background and they fly about at incredible speeds. There just impossible to target or even see. Such a pity but will have to delete and look elsewhere. If you fancy shooting ant targets at breakneck speed then this is for you.
I've read their response to these claims, saying it's not "Bait and Switch" but that is exactly what it is. Nowhere in the description does it say you have to pay a further $3 to open up all the campaigns. If I wouldn't have read the reviews I would have had no idea that "Full Game" only means opening part of the game and a couple of modes. Just write what full game means in "Read More", because most people don't. Then it's not a scam!
Ok. Well I downloaded this game not expecting much but when I opened the game it seemed to have pretty impressive graphics. When I learned that it was a motion game where you have to hold your phone and move it around in order to get anywhere I groaned a little but then the game suprised me there too. The controls aren't too sensitive they are perfect. Its a really great game. Oh another thing: the voice acting is impressive.
If you've ever played Rogue Squadron 2, this is it, minus the Star Wars vocabulary and characters (for obvious copyright reasons). I always liked the Rogue Squadron games, and this does a good job replicating the experience. You do have to pay 5 bucks for the full version, which I feel is mostly worth it, given the quality of the game and the fact that it is one of the few decent 3D mobile space combat games out there. If you want a really good game similar to this one, but free, check out Fractal Combat X.
Barrel roll swiping and other on-screen controls work inconsistently. Despite the update announcement, there has never been an option for a barrel roll button, let alone a button, on either version (free & paid) that I played. Level 5 is impassable on easy cuz of the wonky control response. That said, I paid for it, so I'll keep it. I'm anticipating this game to actually get a lot better.
Just.. Wow. This actually might be favorite game on mobile! I'll admit, I wasn't too sure this would be anything other than a half baked attempt but i could not be any happier to find out how wrong I was! Controls are smooth as butter and gives decent feedback even on mobile! It certainly heightens the experience. Ship designs are enjoyable and level design is well done also! My only complaint is the wingman button. I feel it would be better placed on top of the fire buttons for quicker access instead.

Great potential but controls ruin it for me. (A) the wingman controls are in a difficult-to-reach place, (B) they do not respond while text dialogs are popped up (despite the rest of the battle raging on), (C) such dialogs invade the first 10-15 seconds of a mission and every time a wave of enemies is defeated. It's not possible to control one's speed while holding the missile controls (waiting for a lock) because human fingers just don't bend that way, which makes it essentially impossible to use missiles against the main battleship in mission #2. Subsequently, my multiple attempts at beating mission #2 (the first of the paid-access missions) have failed miserably. i like the feel, the fluid performance, but the controls are just killing me. Also, not having some sort of range indicator to the currently-sighed target makes it impossible to know if hitting them is even possible.
