if your going to copy a hit game, don't leave out the best parts, i liked having to micro manage in frantic frigates, and having the choice between upgrades, here it feels forced and boring, because i dont get the choice, and no i don't think i remember asking for regenerative health in that game either, this is just too easy, and the end before the final boss feels padded, swarming the screen with enemies does not make it harder, its entertaining, yes, but I would never choose this over the alternative

I thought Yay a sequel to frantic frigates! It turned out that upgrades don't reset after each play and all cash is kept and you can't have multiple upgrades of the same type. This way you can't experiment with new tactics (those flag upgrades really helped with that in frantic frigates) and simple grinding is enought to win the game. 3/5, could have been a lot better...

this game should have frantic pirates references, at least saying that it is heavily inspired by it, but no, its completely hiding that fact
this game doesn't deserve to be rated, because it is a complete rip off.

Not a bad game, even if the sound and music buttons have been switched to protect the innocent.
A bit similar to other games though....

Short, very easy and very buggy.
Invisible lasers on the second boss, shots sometimes don't register on enemies, final boss' health got glitched and healed back up when i dealt further damage.
I liked the feeling of progression, it just didn't feel like it lead anywhere.

I like the game type - frantic frigates was fantastic - but I felt this was too easy - it was better when you lost all your upgrades when you died but had more starting money, and the fact that you didn't have to choose between different types of upgrades removed a level of strategy that Frigates had. All in all, a fun game, but far too easy (especially the last boss) and a step back from the precursor.

Frantic frigates was a lot better, except that in this game you kept all your upgrades instead of losing them. Upgrade system is horrible, like really in all upgrades it just increases the number of bullets you fire by 1

Generally a good game, works and all. Ending seems broken. It needs more content, and the bullets disappearing when you change targets is BS

If Berserk studios (Frantic Frigates) would've made this game , it would've been quite more epic...and the final boss health would surely not end at 50% with such a lazy ending...do yourself a favor and go play frigates afterwards. You'll see what this kind of game can bring.

So, EchoLoco has the right of it. This is Frantic Frigates, with a different set of sprites. Normally Im ok with games that are similar, cause I liked the original. However, this is a little...blatant. Might I suggest changing the title to "Frantic Frigates 2: Now with Planes"? It might be a bit more appropriate...

so, apart from being really easy, this game has a huge problem. from time to time your bullets dissapear before even hitting enemies, and they deal no dmg... thats really annoying and got me killed few times...

Why even offer the option to sell parts? You get money SO easy in this game... This was fun for literally about two mins, but it has ZERO longevity whatsoever : /

There is a bug, if you select an item in shop and buy it, and if you press buy again without changing the item, you will lose the money that you arelady had expent

I think this would have felt like less of a cheap cop out if you had just made the main ship a UFO or Helicopter or something that should logically be able to move in all directions instead of an airplane which generally has to maintain some forward velocity to stay in the sky, and then given it a turret instead of making the whole ship turn.

It would be nice if there was a way to reset your progress. I'd like to start over without having to find the app data files i need to delete. Also, it would be nice if the game kept track of how many days it took to beat. Then there's some replay value - trying to beat your fastest playthrough.
