Played a full round on my iPad using a controller. Went into the settings and scrolled to visual and game froze. I closed the app (completely exited out) and reopened. The main screen pops up the disappears immediately leaving me with a black screen. I uninstalled and reinstalled and still getting the black screen. I already gave y’all an amazing review but now I’m ticked off. How does a game get released in this state!? Fix ASAP! I tried the Lite version and after 20 minutes decided to purchase the full game. Very fun gameplay with tons of awesome upgrade possibilities. There are a few minor things that could use an update to make the “quality of life” a bit better.1. Would be nice to have a playable tutorial. Especially when it comes to controlling your drones and turrets. It only tells you the buttons but doesn’t say what d-pad direction = what formation.2. Would like to see a “traditional” twin stick shooter button layout. While I did get used to the current setup, it would be easier to control if the left stick was your thruster/movement and right stick was the aiming. So maybe add the option to choose between the 2 setups.There is 1 bug I’ve encountered on my iPad. When using a controller, exiting from the settings and unlocks menu completely closes the app. Very annoying!These tweaks would definitely make the game more enjoyable but by no means make it not fun to play as is. Looking forward to unlocking all of the abilities!

Really enjoying this game so far. Runs have had a lot of variation, and it’s easy to get stuck in that “one more run” mindset. First few runs were pretty rough learning the controls, and getting an idea of the different upgrade options available (so far, I still have a TON to unlock). After about an hour, I was hooked. Each run gave me ideas for builds to consider in the future, and each unlock opens up more ways to play. All in all, this game definitely scratches an itch for me. I love the graphics, all the upgrade options, and just how powerful you end up feeling when a run goes well. The endless mode really opens things up for me”hardcore” high score chasing, while the “Default” mode helps limit the time spent by having an endpoint. I do kind of wish that we could start on the “default” mode, and have the option to keep the run going, but I can understand why it must be selected beforehand (since it adds an XP bonus). DEFINITELY Recommend if you are looking for a fun, skill/strategy-based high score-chasing game.

I love this game on my PC, but the controls and UI in the touch screen setting could use some work. The UI is over all too small. Trying to select menu options is difficult because of how small and close together they are. I’ve already selected the wrong upgrade multiple times because of how small it is. Same with the menu options. I do really like how I can customize the touch screen controls and that did help. I do wish I could make them more translucent so I could see the field of play better. I have lost myself already. Overall good game, just needs some UI adjustments for the phone screens.

If you like roguelikes, build experimentation, and arcade space shooters, Nova Drift is absolutely worth playing.I’ve been playing this game since I first discovered it in early access on Steam back when I was in high school. Now I’m in my 20s, and I’m really happy to finally see it on mobile. I always thought this was the kind of game I’d sink even more hours into if it was on my phone, and that’s exactly what’s happening.What makes the game stand out is the combination of its style and gameplay. The art is beautiful, the music is great, and the overall vibe is strangely calming even while things get intense on screen.The best part is the build system. The roguelike upgrades give you tons of choices and trade-offs when building your ship. Some runs turn into insanely strong builds, while others become chaotic experiments that somehow still work. Every run feels different, and discovering new combinations is always fun.It’s the kind of game where you say you’ll do one quick run, and suddenly you’ve been playing for way longer than you expected.Really glad this game made its way to mobile.
