First review from U.S. Appstore! :D
by Jthrone
Ok, the dev was very kind enough to give me a promo, so I thought I would give some early impressions. Upon startup, nice clean interface and the obvious retro aesthetic was clear. The game plays very similarly to space invaders. Its not the first and certainly won't be the last. Upon initial play, I thought the controls were slow and sluggish, however, this was quickly remedied by spending some of the credits received from destroyed invaders on upgrades from the shop which becomes available after 3 stages. Once I started upgrading, things got much better and I really started enjoying some retro goodness! The game auto fires for you so it's just a case of steering, not sure f some people would prefer direct finger control rather than left and right arrows?
Openfeint is included, but could definately use some more achievements and some variety e.g finish a stage with no shield damage, or finish with only 10 shield remaining. Just to add a bit more replay value?
Many thanks to dev for the promo, will post an AppStore review when I have played more.
Don't worry - achievements are on the way :wink:
