Sounds and looks greats, I'd like to hear more of this. Btw, that's the controls scheme I suggested on the forums! *is proud*

Read slide to play's preview, they say you can manual fire too by tapping center of the screen.

haha @ really i think ngmofo's is ***king hilarious! Anyway, this looks pretty good, I hope it comes out somewhere around the end of June/early July. Although I wonder if that automatic firing will become a problem… Since it is automatic firing, does it really take any skill at all to play? Basically your just looking at your enemy to kill them, so I don't know about this… Hopefully it all works out well!

Awesome! Real desktop-style arena combat at last?

Other than a few details like firing method, that sounds exactly like the FPS control I've been working on–not to sell, but because I wanted to play with it! Two screen halves, swipe anywhere. This scheme will be the standard, I bet. Dark Hill comes close to this scheme already, and I like it. (My FPS experiments have been only for my own fun so far–nothing to do with my upcoming "real" stuff. I'm delighted to play someone else's implementation of these controls and not have to do the work myself!)
