Astronaut Spacewalk App Reviews

Update this!

This is really really great, but you shouldnt have to restart the entire mission in the event of a phone call or when you want to access another app when the game is paused. Thats really lame and is standard on most every notable iOS game. I also think the weird green tint around the crosshairs/controls is distracting and obscures the beauty of orbiting the earth. Very cool sim tho.

Forget what pep say!! Buy it

I love this app because its slow paced and makes you think. George you hit it out the park with this 1

Crashes

I bet this app would be awesome but it crashes before I can play it so please please pleeeease fix and I love you long time

Plz fix

I barely hit to play the game for three mins and it crashed plz fix

Crash

Should have trusted those who said it wont work. It doesnt. No mission will load. $4 for nothing ......... Now I see - after going to "app support" that the developer doesnt seem to be concerned about the crash issue but is more focused on adding the ISS. Nice for those who are lucky and the game works. For all the others - a lesson in what customer service means... Now after the update it still remains: crash after crash. I havent been able to play it once. Im wondering what are the priorities of the author? For sure not fixing it.... but taking the money.

Great For Space Fans with some ideas for improvement

You need to invest a few minutes to learn the controls and think in 6 directions. I would like to see a first person view from the astronaut perspective. Also consider faint lines better demarcating control zones or a joystick interface like shuttle or like the real thing probably has. Once you get past the basics it is fun to manage the resources and try to improve.

thanks for the update

wonderful game, update is great

Good game

But the controls need to be easier to use way to touchy

Its annoying

I love the concept but the controls are super annoying to control and they get me so mad. You guys should add double analog controls to make it easier. If that happened I would rate 5 stars and no longer rage quit

Impossible

I have had many apps including the space shuttle landing which was very difficult but I could do it. This app on the other hand is totally impossible there are way way too many controls, this game is impossible to learn and I think is a big waste of time and money.

A Wonderful Space Sim

I just finished the game and I had great time with it. I thought the controls, although there is some time required to learn them, were the right ones for this game. For the finesse needed to make minor course corrections (over steering in this game will almost always send you spinning out of control), a virtual/D-pad would have needed to be the size of the screen (and I played it on a iPad). This is a game where a steady hand and patience is required to make it through a level. The funnest part of this game was trying to accomplish a mission while rotating in the 3 orthogonal axes. If I payed attention to the background too closely, I found it easy to become disorientated. Ill never be an astronaut, but this app allowed me to have a fun time pretending.

Too hard!

If this game had a joystick it would be fun

Please make iPad version!

Beautiful simulation style game which requires great patience to master the controls. Would be visually stunning on a retina display iPad. Very addictive - will recommend to my friends!

Good spacewalk sim

Really neat little game, if a bit repetitive. The graphics are very pretty on an iPhone, but boy do they pixelate when playing on an iPad. Its still playable and fun though. If you know the mechanics of three dimensional movement of a body in space (rotation v. translation), this game isnt too hard to master. If youre ignorant of those simple concepts and unwilling to spend the five minutes to learn them, please, continue submitting one-star reviews about how "hard" this game is.

Fantastic!

Ignore the people saying this is too hard and needs analog sticks. The innovative control system works perfectly, and this game took me a whole 5 minutes to get the hang of and maybe 20 to get good at. Once you get to that point, its an extremely rewarding and fun simulator, and pretty realistic as well. I love playing this on my iPod Touch. Id say the only thing wrong with it is it needs a Mac version too!

SPACEWALK IS AB FAB!!!

Wonderful game. Addictive. Wish camera position didnt keep floating around. Very unrealistic. Please add views from payload bay cameras and arm cameras. Hope to see ISS/SAFER version soon.

Very Good, but not for the impatient

Great sim of maneuvering in zero gravity. Youve got to think in 3 dimensions and manage all your movement vectors. And if that doesnt scare you off, this is a good app for you. Just pay attention to where all the controls are, too.

2012: A Space Odyssey

This app feels like a lot of heart went into it. I totally appreciate that you have to give in to its pace. In the strange hours of the night I mash the icon and get sucked in by the sounds as I slow down and geek out with my astronaut-self.

Great!!

About the only thing I could suggest... Please make an iPad version! I just got this today on my iPhone, and while its fantastic, I would definitely have an amazing time on my iPad with this. Please invest in making an iPad version that we could get!

Great App!!!!

One of the greatest space simulation apps out. Starts out a little tricky but after the first couple of stages its additive!!! Great app guys I cant wait for more :)
