★★★★★ One of the best mobile ports I’ve played!
Sat Aug 07 2021 FlavusemeAfter loving My Friend Pedro on pc and learning there was going to be a mobile port, I was skeptical of how the gameplay would translate, as well as assuming it would be a cash grab like many other mobile ports (though that second concern doesn’t really matter, since it helps indie devs). My assumptions turned out to be wrong, as after playing this game, I love the way it turned out. It keeps the movement shooter action of the original while condensing it into a simplified format, and while not as deep as the first game, it stills plays great. As a sucker for movement games, the fluid tricks while shooting enemies is a godsend. My only issues with the game would be the requirement to get premium to choose your levels instead of starting from the beginning, however, the premium version is a light price and the content and support for indie devs is well worth it. Overall great mobile game with few flaws!
★★★★★ The fun comes and goes within a heartbeat
Sat Aug 07 2021 HugoM95The game is pretty fun but ends way to quick. I thought this was gonna be a spin off that would have endless amount of levels and updates but just like the original it ends way to quick. I beat the game with 3 stars on each level in about 3hours. The game ends once it starts to become more challenging and fun so keep in mind it does have an end to it and you will most likely reach it quickly. Also keep in mind they do ask you to pay $2.99 to be able to continue progress if you die but if you do not wanna pay you would have to start from the beginning each time you die. Overall I had a fun time but im sad its over within a flash would have loved for this to be a game were you just keep on getting more levels and different lands and enemies. Hopefully this game will get future updates but from the way it ends i highly doubt it. If you want a quick and fun game to pass
Some time this would be it but if you are looking to have a game for a long time I recommend looking elsewhere.
★★★★★ Short but Great
Sat May 28 2022 Jamie the LamieI’ve played my friend Pedro on switch but sadly not PC, and I loved every second of the game but once I finished I was ashamed that it was over but then once I was scrolling through the app store and saw My Friend Pedro for FREE and thought it had to be a rip off but then saw it was the actual developers and was perplexed to say the least until I realized it was a mobile adaptation. I was skeptical at first but then once I played it I realized how good it actually was, the mechanics aren’t janky, the fighting is smooth, and the enemies arent too difficult bit can be when in groups which I love, and of course the brief but charming dialogue which got me actually invested in the characters. I wasn’t expecting much of a storyline but was suprised to see that it had on of it’s own completely seperate from the original game and was a refreshing experience from a game I hold dear to my heart as a fun platformer/shooter game.
★★★★★ Pretty good game
Mon Feb 07 2022 I like trees 725I have seen bits and pieces of the Consol version and this seems better sure there are bugs but none of them are a big ruckus to the gameplay overall you have to watch an ad or exit out of the game to get a respond on a level or you need to start the whole game all over again I haven’t done that before because I’m OK with watching ads but it does stink I know it is a pretty good game but it does get repetitive after a few levels I feel like I am doing the same thing all over and all over again and the soundtrack eventually gets kind of annoying because the soundtrack is almost like a sound going all over and all over again and it doesn’t help that sometimes it takes me a little while to finish a level I think it’s a great game one of the best mobile games that I have played.
★★★★★ Literally better than the original
Thu Aug 26 2021 Max DucksMaybe it’s because I played on console and not PC, but I had a really hard time with the original My Friend Pedro. It was fun when it worked, but the controls, especially melee with the kick, were unintuitive at times, and the spin, while looking amazing, threw off your aim way too much and was forced too frequently.
This version, however, is exactly how I wanted to original to feel. Is it dumbed down? A little, yeah. But the whole appeal of My Friend Pedro is flipping around and doing all this Matrix-style awesomeness, and this version delivers in spades while cutting out all the stuff that felt a little jank in the original. If you’ve played the original, you know what you’re getting into.
The only two complaints I have are the length and the health system. There’s not enough content to really keep me coming back to this game, as much as I’d like to. Maybe more levels will be added in future updates, but that remains to be seen. As for the health system, health carries over between levels, along with any damage taken. And unlike the original, there aren’t health pickups in the levels themselves, so you’ll start a level, mess up once, and have to go through yet another ad. I understand the game is free and you need to make money, but you already have ads at the end of every level. It’s minor complaint, it just seems like a bit much.
I don’t usually write App Store reviews, but I want to see this game grow and see the My Friend Pedro I always hoped for. If the developers are reading this, I still think a sequel to the original would be amazing. But for that or any future projects you make, you should definitely take notes from this. You’ve hit it out of the park with this one.
★★★★★ change controls/more customization
Sat Sep 18 2021 ARE YOU STUPID!?!I been playing the game for a few days and i like it since I’m not able to play it on computer my friends pedro is a very cool game, but i notice a few one of them is your not able to change your guns i want to be able to use other guns instead of the pistol, other thing is I don’t really like the controls for a mobile games it’s kind hard for a mobile game, it’s kinda hard to be able to move fast and get a high score so i was wondering if you can maybe adding a few more options. One more thing is your not able to freeze and unfreeze time like on the computer and it kinda of annoying to not able to move and your multiplayer i going down too fast, but other then that i hope you keep updating the game and adding more features to it.
★★★★★ Shows promise, however..
Sat Aug 07 2021 Nomad_9302As being a fan of both the original flash game version and the official release, it was hard not to see this and instantly pre-order it. The look of the game is quite impressive for what it is, though seems to lack a little in vibrancy and flare compared to the console/pc version. The soundtrack fits very nicely, and while the controls could use *some* work, I was able to get accustomed to them very shortly. The main gripe I have with the game as it stands now is the the sort of paywall. I personally would’ve made the full game free to play, instead of the whole no respawn thing, with customers the choice to spend money on either the, alternate skins, soundtrack packs, dlc, bonus levels, modifiers, and etc. Otherwise, it’s a promising start to a simple yet very effective action platforming shooter.
★★★★★ Good, but...
Thu Aug 05 2021 THEMOTHEROFALLREVIEWERSThe overall concept of the game is awesome and I’ve really enjoyed it. On the other hand, there is the fact that you have to go through all the levels in one session, no respawns. I, for one, do not like this feature. If you get to the higher levels of the games and die, you have to, through frustration, play all the levels all over again. I feel like the fact that you have to pay
$2.99 to be able to choose which keel you play is a bit far fetched and seeing as there is another game mode
It doesn’t feel necessary. You could at the very least have it so that to respawn you have to watch an ad, and I’d accept that. I don’t, however know how the console version plays and if you get respawns in that or not, I’ll check it out. Overall it’s a fun game it’s just got a few little bugs but seeing as it just released, it’s to be expected.
