About Star Horizon

- AppSpy

“Star Horizon is a slick pulse-raising arcade shooter that evokes many of the best sci-fi space battles in recent cinematic and TV history”

His ship is controlled by Ellie, an Artificial Intelligence which is programmed to help pilots stay mentally strong throughout the war and which cannot kill human beings.

Federation is about to turn the tide of the war but then things start to go wrong. Ellie puts John into hibernation for 1000 years. Now he will have to discover what really happened and maybe, but just maybe, save the galaxy.

Game will glitch out during the mouse trap mission preventing you from finishing. What happens is the front three nodes on the cargo ship will not show up as targets so you cannot shoot them.

Combat in star horizon is just what I was looking for. With its Star Fox-esque gameplay this was a game I couldn't wait to return to and one of the few mobile game I've actually completed. Great dialog between the pilot and AI made the story memorable.

CAN I GET A FREE PLAY. It would be a great edition to the game with free roam and settings so you can choose if you want enemies or not set the difficulty choose your own place to fly and online multiplayer new awesome ships and weapons also settings for elli where you can change her voice, her personality, and all the cool things tobasco can think of. Oh yeah and how about a ship editor just some free thinking for you guys... Update from 2016... I still have this game on my phone and play it all the time

Amazing gameplay,graphic and everything.You must try:)

A straightforward game you buy up front with no freemium and microtransaction BS. Excellent graphics, controls, and sounds. The dev asks you for a little, and gives you a lot. The touch controls are how a touch control game should be. Thank you very much, dev, for controller support. Difficulty gets maddening in later levels. Story's not quite there, but you really don't need one with this great 3D Shoot 'em Up on rails that follows in the spiritual footsteps of Star Fox, Panzer Dragoon, and Gradius.

Exactly what I was looking for! There was a need for a non-flight sim. I was looking for a cinematic rail shooter and came across this gem. Best part? Paid app. Love that, no ads, no microtransactions. Voice-acting is hit or miss, but who cares? This is just pure adrenaline.

Decided to try this game w/o shield controller. Shield controller in trash. Bought this $3 game instead of $60 Wii U Star Fox. Wii U Star Fox isn't 20 times better. And WTF, is that DISPLACEMENT MAPPING in a cell phone game?! IGN 11/10 would shatter perceived norms of reality again happily. Love this game please make more

Lovely graphics, sound and responsive controls & silky-smooth framerate. Apart from being a great space shooter in the same ballpark as Starfox 64, I bought this little gem purely to support a paid app with no IAP's or microtransactions; this type of game model should be supported where possible. Kudos to the dev & publisher. Thanks. 5/5

there s no gameplay,i can t decide where to go, the ship basically fly on auto,,and all that blinkin spot saying where to shoot.check galaxy on fire2 that game is fun, plus it s free.

It's like the on rails games of the 64 and 32 but era. New school gamers should give it a chance, not everything's free roam. It's a fun and very polished game.

If you want to show off your new device to your friends this is your ticket. Gameplay is pretty shallow. It's an on rails shooter and you barely have to aim. I like how my lasers will just shoot at targets in a completely different direction than I am moving. This should allow free 360° movement, but nope. Yawn.

I enjoyed this game and had a few laughs at the bad voice acting and silly plot. Unfortunately I don't get to see the whole ending (or get credit for beating the game) because the game crashes every time I beat it and the final cutscene starts. I'm on a Moto X 2nd gen running Android.

It could have been better if there wasn't that upgrade thing for the weapons. At first, the game is hard, nearly impossible, then you upgrade the weapons after that you can almost win the game by keeping the gun button pushed...

I like this game guys but i noticed a glitch playing on my note 4 running android 5.1.1 on my 2nd day after purchase the resume /quit game window pops up while in game play making it almost impossible to play it properly

"mouse trap" without gamepad. Because it is too hard to navigate away from the swarms of missiles. touch screen response may not be that quick for most of the levels. Kudos for fully support PS4 controller.

Pro: good fun even if it's a rail shooter No in app purchases Works very well with a game pad (playing on the Nvidia Shield K1 tablet and the Shield controller). Did I say it's a lot of fun? Cons: TOOOOOOO SHORT! Please tell us if you're working on a sequel. One that is more free roaming.

Actually i rated it a 4.5/5. Only issue I have is if you could speed the ship up a bit, and less auto pilot. Apart from that well done! BEST free game I have so far seen and downloaded. Main character is funny to boot.

This game is awesome. Doesn't try to get too complicated, just a lot of straight forward fun. Plus, it has cloud save built in, meaning I can switch between phone, tablet, and Shield Android TV and keep my progress in sync across all devices. Well done.

Easily one of the best games on the App Store. It reminds me so much of starfox 64...for all those idiots complaing about the length of the game and the controls, number one: its a mobile game and it was only a couple of bucks. If you want epic gaming, go play your xbox... Number two:i haven't had an issue with the touch controls.. They work just fine and if you have a moga,use that. It makes the game experience so much better.

"mouse trap" without an controller is too hard to navigate away from the swarms of missiles. touch screen response may not be that quick for most of the levels. I also wander why Sony would suggest this game for their phones.
