    Hi,

    Version 1.2 is out. It finally fixes the crashing problem, sorry about the double update. We also fixed the Flak so that it's not so aggressive any more.

    Hope you enjoy this version and keep that good feedback coming.

    Thanks,
    Treehouse

    Ahhhh....that's better. :) I was finally shot down tonight, and it's one of the few times I've been happy to be killed that way. :) Mid-airs are nice and rare now (though still possible if you try), and flak is toned down to a perfect "just annoying" level.

    Thanks for the updates! It's a 5/5 for me now. :)

    Treehouse,

    I have a total love-hate relationship with your game. I sometimes have games where not even three seconds in I get kamikaze'd. I had one game where I got demoted from wave 7 to wave 2 in under 90 seconds because it was just one collision after another, and it's extremely, extremely frustrating. And the sad thing is I LOVE this game when I'm not constantly and consistently knocked out of it by the collisions. When that happens I really hate it, because I just want to play. (I'm sure some gamers will take this opportunity to bash me as someone who just sucks, that's fine. I have a bit of a life and don't get much time to play or perfect my gameplay, so they can ridicule me all they want.)

    If I had one wish for a future update to your game (and I realize this kind of defeats the purpose of having the character who is immune to collisions), it would be to either create a hardcore mode in which collisions are on, or even call it a wussy mode where all collisions are turned OFF. That way casual gamers like myself can enjoy the dogfighting w/o the frustration of having the game end so abruptly by one single collision from enemies who seem to have no other purpose than to collide with my plane. Maybe collisions were a good idea on paper, but in actual game play they just ruin the entire experience for me. When I want a one-collision game-ender I play Zombie Highway, and that's all I'm playing lately because 1951's just too frustrating -- 1951 seems, at its core, a dogfighting game, not an avoid-collision game. So I look at the 1951 icon and think, why bother? There are better collision-avoiding games out there.

    You guys have done fantastic work on this game. I want to put a 5 star rating on itunes but I just can't yet, and I'm not going to go put a bad review there either, because you really do deserve great reviews, and I hope you find a lot of success with this game. Just give us casual gamers an option, is all I ask. When I want more of a challenge, collisions on. When I want a more relaxed dogfight-only game, collisions off. Do that, and to me you'll have a perfect game.

    Did you get the latest 2 updates? Now collisions happen very rarely and are usually easy to avoid.

    All updated. Collisions are still very, very frequent and almost impossible to avoid (for me). I started a game just today and got nailed not 5 seconds after my start. Not head-on either. Two of them came straight at me, one from behind, one from the side.

    I just want an option to turn collisions OFF so I can actually enjoy the dogfighting.

    For me part of the fun is avoiding the collisions, but I also think the last update made it far less frequent. I'm really hoping for a retina display update and game center support.

    I don't entirely disagree with that, and sometimes in certain moods I feel the same way. I'd be just as unhappy if collisions were removed from the game altogether. This is why I'm trying to push for an option to turn them off.

    Picked up the game and it's good fun.

    Would like to be able to flip the screen and especially have support for multitasking.

    Yeah, I really like this game. The only thing that would make it better was if you could pilot different airplanes with different weapon layouts or different stats.

    We are working on content update at the moment so maybe we should consider to implement flip screen at the same time
