Reception

Bit Pilot received a "generally favorable" score of 78 on Metacritic.[1]

Edge awarded the game 8/10 points, calling it distinctive due to its gesture-based control scheme, which is "uncommonly nuanced and tactile".[2] The A.V. Club gave the game an "A" rating, calling it a "tough, unbeatable game" with "atrocious challenge".[3] Tracy Erickson of Pocket Gamer UK gave the game 3.5/5 stars and the Bronze award, calling it "an amusing, bite-sized piece of gaming", and saying that while it "travels a familiar course", "the manner in which it's presented makes this old formula fresh".[4]
