The fact that I USED to play this for free back in the day was the reason why I fell in love with this game. Halfbrick decided to say screw us and put it behind an email registration and a paywall. That's the most disappointing thing a company like that can ever do. If I could give it a 0 I would.

pay to win? nah, pay to play. this game is great and fun, Just one thing. I HATE games that say their free, but only give you a snipet then you gotta pay. would like if it said it was a trial before hand, but it doesnt. so do that. also, halfbrick, your games are great, but nobody's paying to play a mediocre 2d solo fighter, or worse, jetpack joyride, which is just plain bad. I played this game SO MUCH as a kid, but now I can't because you were greedy slugs. fire whatever sleezeball did this.

I would have given 5 stars if Halfbrick Studios didn't lie to us. Remember the description said NO ADS? Well, it looks like there IS—1. That's an ad on behalf of Halfbrick Studios to buy Halfbrick+. Yes, it doesn't give you ads every press you make, but—apart from the lying— it bugs you after 30 minutes to buy Premium before your 1-hour free limit is up. It does the same thing 10 minutes before as well. All in all, it's WAY better no-adwise, and I can play even further than before. Pls fix it...
