Pros and cons of Sine Mora app for iPhone and iPad
Sine Mora app good for
This game is nice but could be so much better if the iCade was supported...
Devs hear my prayers, shmups need to be played with a stick and button mashing!
Absolute fun with Icade control. If only the screen game could be biger, it will be perfect. Good job guys :)
You guys should add a survival mode with a challenging and normal mode,not only hard
Normal and Challenging difficulty in Arcade Mode for casual play.
Please add iCade support for a perfect gameplay and also fullscreen mode. I am sure many people would love to play it in their iCade cabinets. That would rock !!
Im so happy to finally be able to play this game. The port to iOS is done perfectly. The best horizontal shoot-em-up on this platform hands down
Some bad moments
This a cheap port! Copy and paste. So many errors!
The Leader-boards have connection errors about being unable to connect to XBOX LIVE!
No Game Center leaderboards or achievements even though the game has both features gameplay-wise. (Probably from Xbox)
The controls are bad the sensitivity on the joystick is weak , and the odd row of buttons for firing what us that about? So awkward on iPad try to stretch my thumb.
The game is letter boxed even on a 16:9 iPhone 5 screen why? And iPad the size of screen is horrible.
Let me see if I got this straight..... I require a Facebook account to have a saved game? Is this a joke? Furthermore, 1/4 of the screen is WASTED on some lousy chain texture bar which houses the games controls, obstructing an abundance of screen retail. I absolutely LOVED the console iteration of this game. But with no local save feature, and no fullscreen... This game is an embarrassment. Especially for the hefty price tag. Be weary.
Dont see what all the fuss is about. This is a side scroller shooter that does not even use the whole screen. Why are we even playing these kinds of games anymore? A beautiful background is nothing if gameplay is not stimulating and the story line lacks even basic plot integrity. Go and play your way through Galaxy on Fire 2 again and ignore this 1980s rehash dressed up in 21st century graphics. Worse still, this game is dull and uninspiring. What a disappointment.
The game is fun and looks nice. However, I have a iPhone 5 And can not change the graphics from normal to high or ultra. Please fix this as the graphics need a rad of antialiasing type fixes, the pixelated lines around objects are killing me. Also, why not have the control area transparent like every other game at this price? Please get rid of this gray control area and make this game full screen!!!!!!! Also , I dont have face book and can not save my game, please get rid of that requirement.
Well I knew nothing of this game but I love new things so I tried. Ugh! I guess if you like "shoot em ups" this game is for you. As far as the description of the story line making it easier for newcomers? Forget it. Its in another language (intentionally for the game pay) but only serves to add another layer of frustration. The worst part for me anyway was having to start over each time you die. You get some extra lives but you burn them up quick and it becomes so TEDIOUS after awhile of hearing the same creepy tones and flight instructions while battling the same group of monsters over and over again. So I guess if this is you kind of game it might be great. As for me I prefer less fire power and more brain power when playing a game. The boredom of shooting the same targets and enemies is excruciatingly bad about an hour in and I gave up. Cool graphics but the boredom is insane.
No full screen. The graphics adjustment option doesnt work and Im forced to play in this tiny portion of the screen with my settings on normal. I wanted to take advantage of my new retina iPad, but this ios conversion is simply a piece of garbage!!!!!!!
