However, it runs great and is an absolute blast. I am running it on a standard iPad 10 with an 8bitdo SN30 Pro controller, which to my surprise is fully supported in-app. There’s really no reason to pass this one up if you enjoy scrolling shooters. -- Eisbrook, 2025-08-10 ### ***** "So much fun" In the 90’s I dreamed of one day having a neo geo system to play these arcade games at home, and now we can do it anywhere. This game is fantastic, a brilliant side-scrolling shooter with guts and charm. Some reviews say it’s not perfect and maybe those folk had the OG system or played it endlessly at the arcade but none of that matters if you’re just looking for a great arcade shooter for iOS. It’s worth the price and your time. -- Boatguy2002, 2022-09-01 ### ***** "Thankz" For returning to us🎉 -- Dezonly1ofthem, 2022-04-20 ### *---- "Unplayable" There are numerous game breaking bugs that make this unplayable. I cant believe this is even on the App Store . Dont waste your money. 🙁 -- Chachabelvin, 2020-12-07 ### *---- "PLEASE UPDATE GAME" PLEASE UPDATE GAME. I have massive buttons on my screen covering up the gameplay.... have mercy :( -- FERRARIII, 2020-08-09 ### ***-- "One of the best shmups ever made, but..." The emulation is not cycle exact, and the level 2 parallax scrolling flickers horribly. It’s distracting and almost unplayable that way. How did this pass QC? Plays better on my Raspberry Pi 3 than on my much more powerful iPhone, ironically. -- Kazrog, 2020-01-05 ### *---- "ios version 13 makes the game unplayable" when playing the game on ios version 13 on an iphone 7 plus the games buttons cover the whole screen blocking out the ability to move around the screen and actually getting a good look where the enemies are. Please update this to be compatible with the current ios version. -- Theewhiteknight1, 2019-12-15 ### ***** "Wonderful!" Exactly as it should be. -- MisterZhanZhan, 2019-01-12 ### ***-- "Awesome game, few hiccups iOS 11." Game is great SNK classic. Great port, but on iPad 9.7”, stage 2 background is glitchy. If dotemu fixes this it will be great once again. Please update, & thanks for keeping the classics alive! -- Ttllizmum, 2018-08-07 ### **--- "Bad emulation." The sky background on level 1 and the level 2 glitches out. -- Death pan, 2018-04-27 ### ***** "Masterpiece of a shoot eum up" Thanks for adding new ios support. Amazing game now works for iphone 8 and X. -- Titanium68, 2018-04-27 ### ***-- "Updates" Can the game be updated for the latest iOS please? -- oldatarigamer, 2018-01-04 ### ***** "Favorite SNK Shooter!!!" Please update to current version of iOS. It's the one game I spend the most time playing! -- teel, 2017-09-19 ### ****- "Fun ASF" This game is fun asf enough said -- Matthance, 2017-01-21 ### **--- "Bluetooth 2 player" The Bluetooth 2 player mode doesn't work. Gave it 2 stars for single player mode. -- Tvo614, 2016-01-17 ### ***** "Great game, great port" SNK made some fantastic games back in the day, this game blows many modern games out of the park. Dotemu did a great job porting as everything flows nicely, controls are smooth, and there are many options. -- Bluthhousing, 2015-11-22 ### ***** "Great!" Excellent! -- More fantastical, 2015-09-30 ### ***** "Great port." Another great SNK game on my iPhone! Keep the classics coming guys. Controls seem a little sluggish on touch but manageable. Much better when using my icade jr. Still a great overall game to have on the go. -- D MCCreedy, 2015-05-11 ### ***-- "Not too bad overall..." The characters were a bit off my expectations, but gameplay and style are good. -- mayito3733, 2015-02-07 ### ***** "My favorite Neo-Geo shooter!" So happy to play this Neo-Geo CLASSIC on iOS. Give it a try- you'll love it! -- Sh00tTheC0re, 2015-01-05 [View all BLAZING STAR reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## BLAZING STAR Store Rankings | Chart | Country | Category | Rank | |-------|---------|----------|------| | Top Paid | Netherlands | Games | #315 | | Top Paid | Peru | Games | #481 | ## BLAZING STAR Discovered Keywords -
