Repulze

This game needs to be on Apple TV.

Repulze reminds me of the Nintendo game, &quot;F-Zero&quot;. It's a fast paced racing game except you're not racing other players, and the developers of this game (Pixelbite), make some other great games as well.<br/><br/> In Repulze you are tasked with piloting your hovercraft through red and green gates, gaining speed bonuses for hitting the right gates and being penalized by losing momentum when you hit the wrong gate.<br/><br/> Graphics are amazing, but that alone doesn't make a great game. Repulze also combines excellent controls with a smooth frame rate. <br/><br/> There are 3 phases of the game to play giving you plenty of content. If you're looking for a sleek, futuristic racing game, Repulze is it. There are no IAP's in this game. It does offer 1 hovercraft for sale in the shop for $4.99, if your inclined to spend some money.

When this was first released, I absolutely loved the way it was presented. A time trial racing game with some incredible track designs, mechanics, graphics, and very tight controls. It was all about learning the tracks and besting your own, and your friends, times, while unlocking new vehicles and upgrades. Now, after multiple updates, the game is truley a gem. The first phase was the original base game. While they always said more content was coming, with the AppStore, that doesn't always happen. The second phase added more mechanics and the third added enemies and weapons, all while keeping the core 'beat the fastest time' drive behind it all. While some may have wanted another Wipeout clone but I was very happy that they stuck with the trails type gameplay. Repulze very quickly became (and has stayed) my favorite racer in the AppStore, trials or not, I'd choose it over NFS, over Sonic, over any Asphalt title, Real Racing, CSR... IMO, it is absolutely in the conversation for 'best of the best' racing game on the iOS. Pixelbite is almost always awesome, but they made a real gem here.

Amazing game. Severely under rated racing game. If you don't have it, buy it. Phase 3 is really, really fun.

This is a great game with 60fps gameplay. But in IOS 10 when i try to see achievements or leaderboards the game always crashes. I hope the developers update the game and fix this problem.

I enjoy the game but would love it more if it were online multiplayer

It needs some upgrading in order to be fully patible with Mac mini please and thank you

Edit: Game went downhill with subsequent updates adding micro-transactions. It's also unfortunate that vehicles are for the most part direct upgrades and not sidegrades so there is little point in trying out different ships (just use the one with the best stats) unlike WipEout. Lastly it would have been much better if you could choose pure time trial or race on each track. I could look past all this however if not for the retroactive microtransactions. I was going to buy pixelbite's newest game but now I'm worried about shady retroactive microtransactions =/ <br/><br/>Edit: haha, just looked at some of the other reviews. The controls took me one race to get used to. It's YOU, not the controls. Probably not wipeout or fzero fans. I do think a lower speed class should be added for people like you guys who are new to the genre and need a more gradual difficulty curve. <br/><br/>------------------------<br/><br/>This is precisely how the time trial portion of WipEout on iOS should be done. Well worth the $1 (worth more than that actually). A cautionary note, there is only one speed difficulty so if you don't think you can handle high speed racing, don't bother with this. It won't be fun for you. <br/><br/>Updates are planned and hopefully the game is expanded to include races and other modes, but for now the $1 is still excellent value for what is here. If race mode and more is added this app would be well worth $5-$10 if the quality is as good.
