Can't believe the unfair reviews

Half the reviews are low scores due to controller whining (and a guy who hadn't even played yet)! That's absurdly unfair. There are 3 parts to the experience- an animated video from many angles of descent and landing, which isn't all that long but AMAZING quality and immersion. A game of trying to land the craft in a test lab, which is difficult but also funny to watch smashes and crashes. And a chance to control a rover across Mars terrain, which feels realistic if not that exciting. This isn't a life changing app, but if you can get it at a low price, the content is well worth it! Hope to see more from this dev soon!!

Great experience - needs minor tweaks

For the next update, I'd like to see the following: 1. The option to switch off the music. The sounds of the capsule and the atmospheric entry are great and provide a very immersive experience for a small product. However having compulsory music spoils the experience. Some people might like the music hence why it should be optional. 2. On re-entry, the option to remain inside the capsule for the whole experience. I understand this might be tricky if this is to remain a small sized product. 3. Again, might not be possible if size needs to be kept to a minimum but would also like to experience the launch from earth as well. I did enjoy the lander lab as well. A very good product overall but can be improved by points 1 above and if possible, 2 as well.

Really poor resolution on GO

I bought this because video of content of this title on GO looked like content was in high resolution but this is by far the worst resolution I have ever seen on the GO? The help text in the land rover experiance is barely legible... Im requesting a refund.

Excellent!

The landing sequence is worth the money. This is the most realistic depiction of landing a manned craft on the surface of Mars I've ever seen. I also discovered you can make some sideways movement in that sequence with the controller which allows for some different perspective each time. The sound, music score and graphics were fantastic. I was also impressed you accurately depicted the colours of the atmosphere during entry and the bluish tones of the horizon when the sun is at an angle. The only suggestion I would make is allow for higher resolution. I imagine this is low res and pixellated for it to run smoothly, but hopefully you can allow high res as an option to see if our phones can handle it. Great work!
