What people like
- No microtransactions or paywalls at all
- Developers fix bugs very quickly
- Music and visuals are really great
What they complain about
- Controls trigger accidental app switching
- Landscape mode feels awkward and wrong
- Menu navigation is slow and confusing
Great game!
All in all it is a great game, though, progressing through all of the ships is hard and it has a very limited number of ships, hope it comes out with a custom ship though, that would be cool.
Dumb Ui
The almost impossible navigation system made this game unable to be enjoyed, thought I was going to like this game, what a shame.
Best video game sequel ever
OMG THIS IS the best video game sequel I’ve ever seen but there’s only one problem 6-4 is really hard but in a fun way my favorite thing is how OP search is it does so much damage but it has horrible aim at the same time it’s perfectly balanced also this game is cool
Boring
Boring
It’s back but no option to continue from the original.
Love that it’s back, but between no way to continue from the original (which I still have on an old gen 4 iPod touch), and I now have to grind to get my favorite ship instead of having an in app purchase restore option, makes this less appealing with my busy schedule.
Wow taito
So good it’s exactly like the old game you made It’s so cool. I love it. You should make some more space invaders games but I’m sad that you got rid of the space invaders world defense game.
Boring
This is the dumbest thing I’ve seen so far. Give me a reason to keep my Apple Arcade subscription. Please
This game is a almost perfect remake of the original but music mode is missing :(
this game takes me back to when I used to watch gameplays of it but I never got to play the 3d levels myself, I love that I can finally play the 3d levels,. Can you please add back music mode? I would love play whatever I want while playing this game.
Boring
The original game of “Pong” was more exciting to play than game. On Arcade you get 3 tries and game over.
It is hard
But fun
Outstanding
The gameplay is exciting and the music draws you right in. Wear a headset! The crisp vector graphics bring me back to games like asteroids and tempest and there are elements of both those games at play in this modern version of space invaders.
Not really space invaders
Try to play the actual game and 10 seconds into it sends you to play some other game mode? Is this a glitch or just false advertising?
Good but hard
Its good but the levels are hard
Diminishing Returns
While I appreciate that the game becomes more challenging as you advance (though literally impossible in some places), the reward system is broken in this regard. I’m at evolution 87, and I honestly can’t remember the last time I unlocked a new ship to at least add some variety to the gameplay. All I keep getting are image and music files that, frankly, I already see and hear PLENTY while actually playing the game; at this point, they’re closer to slaps in the face than rewards. I get not wanting to mess up the pacing, but it’s been so long since an evolution has felt worth the effort that the game is no longer fun and is merely frustrating.
contoler support
??
Good
You should collab with totm+
Take old game & make worse
This IS NOT representative of original game, Im old enough to know. Absolutely terrible
Pretty great Remaster!
I gotta say I didn’t expect this game to actually come back after it was wiped off the App Store when 32 Bit support on IOS was removed, the console stuff being brought back along with new content is pretty great but there are some things i think could use improvement Some of the Challenge mode exclusive stuff (Enemies, Music and bosses) aren’t unlockable in the Enemy Graphic and Sound menu respectively, but outside of that it me a pretty good remaster for what it’s worth.
操作しにくい
移動操作の感度が低く、メニュー画面の操作も都度演出が入るからなのかなんと言うかたどたどしく感じました。 まだほとんど進めていないため全ての仕様を確認してはいませんが、移動は普通に指をはなすまで動き続けてはなしたら止まるでいいような気がしました。 追記:Macでコントローラーを使って少し触ってみましたが、やはりiPhoneのタッチ操作は挙動が異なっていました。コントローラーではスティックを倒している間は動き続けるごく普通の挙動ですが、タッチ操作はなぜかマウスカーソルのような挙動で大きな移動がしにくいです。また、UIのもっさり感は負荷の問題ではなく四角いフレームが拡大していく演出などのせいでした。 最後に、レビューに返信がありましたというメールが既に6回も来ていますが、実際のご返信内容は特に変わっていないようです。他のアプリでの返信の際は普通に1回しかメールは届かなかったので、Appleのシステムの不具合とは考えにくいのですが…
It’s ok
Fine
Delightfuly surpising
This is truly an amazing game. The bossfights are well done, the levels are incredible, the soundtrack is hammered home, and the entire concept is genius. plus the way the graphics evolve too is amazing. Its basically geometry dash and spaceinvaders merged in the best way digitally possible.
fix the menu
truly the worst menu screen i’ve ever seen. unclear and annoying. i’ll update the review once they fix this because it’s awful as is.
Same old problem
Not bad, but same control problem whereby it’s too easy to activate the ‘switch app’ functionality while moving the ship round the screen, resulting in game stopping and prompting to resume. Very poor control design and ruins an otherwise alright experience. Sorry. Update: Now the controls are fixed, this is a good fun shoot ‘em up. Well worth a play. Nice work!
Playability reduced due to landscape mode
If you must have landscape for compatibility please give the option of landscape or portrait.
Game isn’t in app folder
Thanks
Please port this game to modern consoles/PC
I need somebody over there to see this, and I'm going to word this in a specific way for a specific reason: From the context of my request, you can tell how I feel about this game. PLEASE release this game for consoles, or even just on PC. Even if it can only be the base Infinity Gene released on older consoles nearly a decade and a half ago. I need this game to be more accessible to modern platforms to any degree. I beg of you Taito.
hard meh, would be so much better if you could manual shoot when using a controller
EDIT: the auto-fire on/off option is a joke, you press X and it turns on auto-fire, so it's shooting continually, you press X again, and it turns it off completely, no more shooting. why not just have the option to manually shoot like any other shooter game? please add an option to shoot manually, especially when using a controller. the satisfying part of these kinds of games is shooting. and please make it more obvious when selecting options, like the settings etc. probably a promising game if they add a manual shoot option
Very Engaging and a Blast
I first discovered this series (past the original arcade version) many years ago on the Nintendo DS and I was missing it.. Found this version and was surprised to see.. I now have it for the switch as well. Developers: can you please get the controller option working on Mac OS X please - controller working fine on several other Apple Arcade games, but not this one.. Definitely would add to the enjoyment!
Space Invaders with ADHD
Not much left from the original space invaders. I personally don‘t like it.
Needs Apple Pencil compatibility
Fun game, but doesn’t work with the Apple Pencil pro
No music stages?
I adore the original, and so happy to have this game back in my life, though this renewed version seems somewhat pale compared to the original. I sincerely hope the music stages return, so that I can play my own library of songs.
No Backbone controller support!
See “Title”
Misleading title. Good game
This is a perfectly capable reimagining of space invaders but I take exception with the completely unnecessary references to cell biology. I really liked cell bio in college and the name, as well as the first few minutes of the game, excited me with promises of some kind of meaningful relation to the invoked subject. Maybe you'd be able to mix and match ship powers with some sort of genetic algorithm. No. It's spaceships fighting space ships with completely unrelated cell bio inspired level names. Nothing to do with the levels. Seems like someone went through an index of a freshman bio textbook and picked level names without understanding the concepts. The "tech tree" kind of looks like a tree of life but appears to be either completely linear or random. Don't do that. You have a good game. Why imply content that's not there? The question is entirely rhetorical; please don't write back; devs who reply undermine their product.
Start Over
So disappointed. Was excited to see the classic game on iPhone but they totally messed it up. Space invaders but the defender can fly up into the sky? Ridiculous. The only good part is the initial 1978 level and then it all turns to empty promises and silly levels. It’s hard to follow and makes no sense when it comes to level progression. Just release one that is a simple, classic, space invaders game, please.
fun, with some major annoyances
- i am constantly closing the game because i am moving along the bottom of the screen and the home swipe gesture has not been blocked - the navigation is slow and annoying. why does it take 3 seconds to open the settings? why do i have to tap the squares instead of the text? very unintuitive
Played the game back on my iPhone 5,,, this is a MASTERPIECE
I played the OG game on the iPhone 5 and later XBOX 360 and it was a masterpiece. It’s amazing to see the game has come back to iOS in its full form with ZERO micro transactions! I’m so excited to 100% it again on iOS!
It’s back BUT landscape!!!
Landscape makes no sense, makes controls awkward. The original played to the spirit of the phone, portrait, one thumb play, why do this? Response to developer: So you’ve led development for devices that will almost certainly be used far less than the phone, less user population etc. as an arcade shooter the whole design ethos was around portrait, game now semi broken in landscape, attack patterns broken by having to be squashed to fit landscape etc, very poor decision making
Evolution never ends!
Great work so far. The 5-2 boss could be slowed down and less bullets on Easy difficulty, but everything is good so far. I’m eager to see some content from the original iOS release return soon (Sidescrolling Mode, Chimera Stages, Survival Mode, Black Fly ship, and so on.)
No skill required
If you can swipe left or right then you have mastered this game. More effort has been spent on the graphics than the game playability, it’s dull and wiggling your finger randomly about on the screen will progress you to the next level. I tried to like this but just bring back the original.
A painful review
I loved this game back when it was new, and it's wonderful that it's back, but changing it from portrait to landscape makes it way less playable. And they've redesigned a bunch of the levels to fit that, presumably, so they can't quickly patch a portrait mode back in. It's a shame. This would be an instant five stars if it wasn't significantly worse to play. Maybe I'll revise this up to four stars eventually, but more likely I'll just keep on longing for the real version.
PERFECT
The ultimate version of a timeless PS3/Xbox 360/iOS title— finally back and better than ever!! The original is near and dear to my heart, and this is more than a port/remaster— it is an entirely new experience that captures the magic and essence of the original release while also standing on its own as a new entry. Developers are extremely passionate about their craft, I reported a bug and it was fixed in just a few weeks!! THE KING OF GAMES STRIKES BACK!!
Gameplay is good
Love the game, but for the love of god, I’ve lost so many life’s by moving the controller below the line and putting the game into pause. When it resumes … BINGO … YOU’RE DEAD !!! So frustrating, I deleted the game. Shame really. Was playing on iPad Pro 13 inch with apple pen.
Really like this game, but…
I hadn’t played the previous version of this before, so I had nothing to compare it with. However, If there was the option to play in portrait mode, I’d probably play this a lot more and my rating would be an automatic 5…
Would have much preferred the original
The brilliance of the original Space Invaders is the result of its simplicity. The game we have here is anything but; often enough it doesn’t even feel like I’m doing anything other than stare at meaningless flashes. Pretty please, can we have the proper Space Invaders instead of this heresy?
Good game, brutal navigation
Who doesn’t love space invaders…? But the weird and unintuitive navigation is awful.
This needs to be purchasable!
Loved playing the original Infinity Gene and was so bummed when it fell out of development. Literally, the only reason I took the complimentary three months with purchase of an iPhone was to play Infinity Gene again! Would love to have this game in a permanent collection on my phone!
SpaceInvaders InfinityGene EVO
This game was great, played it on Xbox 360 back in the day, the game is the perfect amount of nostalgia and freshness to make this an almost perfect game. It keeps you wanting to play more at every turn.
Great, but mislabelled on AppleTV
This game is great. If it wasn’t originally so much older you’d probably say it’s reminiscent of Vampire Survivors - just controlling movement while firing automatically and dodging enemies and their bullets, and all the while unlocking new powers and skills. It’s super compelling, always feeling like one more try will get you through, and the soundtrack’s awesome. One thing though: on AppleTV it’s listed as controller optional, which seems reasonable given it’s literally just swiping and you can do that on the remote. But when I start the game it demands a controller and won’t progress without one. I’d love to see that on the big screen, and with the big sound system.
繰り返しが多すぎる
ボスキャラが何度も何度も繰り返し登場し、新鮮味のかけらもない。
Add sensitivity controls
Low sensitivity works on iPad only where you can see more screen under your finger. On iPhone you cover a lot of action and this can ruin your game with all the chaos going on. Just allow to increase decrease swipe sensitivity based on user preference. Unclear why it's not an option from the start.
