Bazooka Boy

This really is a great game. I get a chuckle every time the character jumps up and down, dances around, and such every time he wins! And of course, he’ll get whacked too if you haven’t correctly set the trajectory. So far I’m at level 415 and have just over $1 million, so if one gets that far and still enjoy playing it, then it’s a great game. I also like the option of choosing various weapons and outfits, so if there’s a level that’s giving you trouble, change weapons until you find the one that works best for you for that level. I’m still playing the free version with ads, but the ads aren’t really annoying so I keep playing! I think I’ll buy more weapons and see how they work. I already completed the first set of challenges ages ago, so I have earned the golden bazooka. It’s just a simple, fun game!!

The game is fun, much like a pretty common spin on the old classic “Tanks” game. I purchased the ad free version. Improvements would make this game a hit. Minor bugs : it’s not often, but you may run into a few bugs. One that is annoying is that you will successfully kill all enemies on the screen, but it doesn’t trigger that you have complete the level. You just end up having to fire off your remaining shots and start over. Restart button is desperately needed : It would be nice to be able to hit restart on a level at any given point to quickly start over. Need more levels : you quickly get through the levels and then it just repeats these levels. I’m not sure how many there are, but I’d guess there are only 20-30 levels. It gets old pretty quick. Need to add a lot more levels. Other game types : There are essentially two game types. Normal mode where you have multiple guns available and 3 shots to complete the level and then there is a mode where you only have the first basic gun and one shot to complete the level. Would be cool to add in a few other game types. Maybe something like you can only use one gun to complete the level, but it’s random. Or different goals, like rather than just kill all enemies, kill all enemies plus your own character or kill enemies in a specific order or have different colored enemies and some that you can’t kill while trying to kill the others, etc.

It’s a great game and highly addicting. The frequency of the ads made me go ahead and spend the $3 to get rid of them though, and there are a few glitches, such as the ground disappearing after an explosion (like all the ground, not just what you blew up), or a projectile getting stuck into something forcing a reboot of the game, or it freezing and quitting to desktop but thankfully they aren’t that frequent and merely just an annoyance. I would like to do a feature request of being able to select a previous level to play as right now, it is a strictly linear game. I went to show it to my son, but since I’m on like level 50, I think the game was lost on him because there is so much going on by then. Another suggestion I’d like to make is to create a PRO version of this game where you can pay like $6 or so upfront and make use of the family sharing since in-app purchases aren’t shared with family sharing. Nice game though and I’d highly recommend.
