Hear from the Players – Plasma Sky – a rad retro arcade space shooter Reviews
Find out what gamers are saying about Plasma Sky – a rad retro arcade space shooter:
We are cheap — we do not pay for many games. We have bought this one twice — for iOS and Android. And it was money well spent. If we could figure out how to get paid for the many hours we have spent playing this game, we could afford not to be so cheap. It is marvelously playable. Discovering its ways of scoring and the tricks to winning is half the fun of this game. It is not just a random shoot ‘me up — there is definitely a method to the madness. We average in the range of ten to fifteen million points per game. We have heard tales of those who score forty million points and more. They should write a book on how they do it for the rest of us. This game gets updated periodically and improves both the playability and the game itself as well as correcting problems. It is a must have for shoot ‘me up gamers.
The best .99 spent on an iOS arcade shooter! Ever. A lot like Galaga (4 u nostalgic ones, like us!) with the flowing visuals of Abyss Attack which we finally deleted bcuz it has not been upd8ed in years. Plasma Sky is fun, fast paced, & absolutely beautiful.
Is there a way to buy the soundtrack?
Im glad we found this game. Its just want we want in a retro arcade shooter. Simple. Fun power ups. Beautiful graphics. Challenging without being frustrating. Great.
If been playing Plasma Sky since the IPhone 3G and it remains our favorite iPhone game ever! Big props to the developer for keeping it going though all the changes over all these years!!!!!!!
This game is the perfect, timeless 80s arcade-style vector shooter. We’re never deleting this game! Buy it now!!!
Played it when it came out years ago. Beat it with many continues. Took it up again and beat it with one man!!!!! Who does that? Now playing survival mode. Wish they would make another one.
This game has followed us through two iPads and and at least one iPhone and an iPod touch. Simply a must have on every device. Amazing soundtrack and addictive gameplay that can keep you busy for however much time you have. Cant recommend enough! Wish this thing had 1000s of reviews!
We had seen our hubby playing this game. It looked fun, but not as complicated as some shooting games. Just shoot and try not to be hit. A great way to get our frustrations out! A number of different games, one with 100 levels. We know we have beaten hubbys high score, but that is our secret… For now. We are a little addicted and have to play it a few times, at least, each night. Give it a try. Youll fall in love! Thanks!
Without a doubt this is our favorite game on iOS and Android. The graphics, gameplay, and music are spot on. Its one the few games thats always on our phone.
Works great on the IPhone 12 Pro. Has the dev stopped working on it? If so, kudos for such a polished and fun game. And thank you for putting a user manual on your site. If the dev ever comes back to it, haptic vibration and vibration would be a nice addition.
We have had this for so long, our favorite original galaga game remake.
Great game!!!!!!!, our only complaint is that when you pause the game and use others apps you have to start all over again.
This is one of the few shmups on iOS worth playing. No free to play BS. Just spaceships, lasers, and exploding aliens! Good work John.
Definitely worth downloading. Multiple game modes and terrific enemy variety. There isn’t any ship customization but the upgrade drops will always help.
This is a truly special game. It reminds us of the games we grew up on and yet the graphics are better. The game looks great on our iPhone 6s Plus, and equally well on our iPad Pro 12.9. Its just pure shoot em up fun. This game and CHILLAXIAN are great retro fun!
Awesome soundtrack. Polished graphics. We keep coming back to it. It will always be on our phone.
Love the game but REALLY wish youd update it to support full screen on iPhone X. Id up this to 5 stars!
Favorite mobile game we’ve got! Thanks for the quick update anticipating a compatibility issue before it hit.
One of the only games we have carried over from each iPad upgrade over the years. Very happy for compatibility upgrade.
WAY TOO MUCH FUN!!!! Even better after the update.
We love this game. Beautiful graphics, good pace and a blast to play in our down time.
Easily 1 of the top 3 (free) shmups (imo) available on the App store. Runs/ controls beautifully. & the latest update kicked it up another massive notch! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
We have to say this game ranks in the top 3 airplane shooting games out there. The music is awesome, power ups a great and levels are manageable. U get unlimited continus also. A great game overall. We were hoping they’s make a sequal by now though since it’s been out for several years.
Great update and the game is as fun as ever.
The game is a lot of fun, our only problem is it does not save.
A game like this should have ten times the reviews it has. Maybe the best game in the App Store, people let’s support developers like these fine folks. We really believe a lot of you gamers out there don’t know a good game from a bad one. Make the investment people, make the investment, we have ten years of gaming experience behind us. We think we know a little about what we’re talking about. You people will be sorry when good developers go out of business.
And now Im playing it to death again since the update. Highly recommended.
We keep on going back to this game.
Great graphics and entertaining gameplay.
Retro shooter gaming that is SPOT ON! This game has it all. Fast paced, vibrant colors, good variety of enemies, good sound, tight controls, and plenty of "play it again" game play. John Dunbar — EXCELLENT WORK!
This game is visually stunning. The music is awesome, color schemes are great and maneuverability(controls) are solid. Our only complaint is that they should have more options for game play aside from: conquest, blockade and such. If we pay for this app give us more to use/do!!!
This is by far our favorite game we play. Since the update last year, our game always crashes when we have the slow motion power up and the snake comes out. Contacted with no fix. Only thing that’s keeping it from 5 stars.
Has a few game modes. It’s not one of those impossible shooters like don pachi.
We loved this game before, but your update has many bugs… Action stutters, and when we try to change our name, game quits… Please correct these issues so we can play the game again.
Searching terms like "bullet hell" and "danmaku" will bring this game up. This is NOT a bullet hell game, but it IS one of the most visually AWESOME games in the App Store! So much neon and explosions! The ultra smooth frame rate makes for pure joy at a coffee break pace. Our only wish is that it WAS made to be a bullet hell game! Maybe that could be the sequel?
We know this app was made a while ago and we’re sure you have moved on with your life but we just want to say that this is an awesome app. We dont play it all the time but this is one of the few apps we never delete off our phone because its a game that will always be fun. We only have one problem: we have an iphone 5 (had this game on our 4) and there is a white line at the very bottom of the screen that bothers the crap out of us. We dont need it to be resized for the larger screens but please just make the white line black ;p but if you dont we will still love this app, and we understand. We just really wish you would <3.
Best space shooter game we’ve come across the App Store. Awesome visuals and game play. Bosses are pretty sweet.
This retro style shooter is gorgeous and fun. Just the right difficulty to spend a few spare minutes playing.
We really like this shmups, just fire and forget. Looking forward to the next release.
We have this game on our iphone and our galaxy tab 2 yes we bought it 2 times thats how much fun it is. One of the best space shooter app games we have tried we love it. We have played it everyday sinc it came out ty for a great game.
… Stunning and incredibly entertaining gameplay. This isn’t anybody’s momma’s Galaga, Asteroids and Space Invaders. Everything in this game is moving fast, all over everywhere and chasing you down with bombs, spaceships, etc.. Also the kinda game that works perfect on any size screen.
Well played! Can’t stop playing this game. So simply hard, we always feel we could do more with just one more try. Different but old school at the same time!
One of few games you will keep on your iPhone.
Have played it for over a year, still not sick of it.
Perfect way to kill a little time. Great visual effects and gameplay. Hope to see more from this developer.
First, great game! Glad we bought the full version. Areas for improvement: 1. More levels of course 2. A confirmation dialog screen if you hit restart after a game because you might have meant to hit continue. 3. Why if you pause a game does it completely restart if you open it from the springboard where it has been suspended? We may be at level 61 and it reloads and restarts. Very frustrating!
…. It needs more levels. The graphics are beautiful to look at and the game play is smooth–and the game is certainly fun to play–but it needs more levels. Please add more levels and more cool new enemy ships!
A simple and well done top down shooter made great by the incredible graphical style, which is a sort of neon-retro-vector style. It’s entertaining just to watch someone else play.
