Posted on by arn

Freeverse has recently provided a massive update to their popular Flick Fishing [App Store] game.

The new update offers a number of new modes and fish. The developer description includes:

  • Unlockable eXtreme Fishing mode. Much harder to catch, but much bigger fish, with more skill required to land them.
  • 3,5 and 10 minute tournament length options
  • Unlockable new fishing location.
  • 4 New fish, Brown Trout, Bream and Wahoo and a new ‘named’ fish.
  • Lures and Spinners now work without floats and add a different fishing action
  • Various secret ‘powerups’ that can be unlocked to help catch bigger fish
  • Ducks re-tuned
  • CPU player re-educated in tournament ethics.
  • Various bug fixes, tune ups and imrovements.

    • The game has been very well received in our forums with extensive discussions about record fish, quest mode walkthrough.

      Wow... the game is called Internal Force? ROFL...

      Looks like they are copying Centipede's controls, but putting it on a band at the side rather than at the bottom.

    3. chase

      I like that control scheme, but it should be ontop of the action like in dropship, not in a clipped out region. Looks like a good shooter, I would pay 3-5 for it.

    4. spiffyone

      I disagree, chase. One really needs to see the entire screen in shmups like this, as one wrong move means instant death. I don't mind this set up for shmups on iTouch/Phone...but I wish the action was centered onscreen rather than off more to one side.

      I think the problem with Crystal Defenders is that it would be completely suitable for full touch control (like all the other tower defense games).

      For a shmup however this looks like the way to go. Having your big fat finger actually on the ship would retard the gameplay. You need to be able to see everything and have very precise, nuanced control.

      I agree with Obiter. All the developer needs to do is to make sure that the left hand side does not look plain, put a nice graphics there (spaceship interior, etc) will do.

      After playing with Touch Defense, Crystal Defenders just feel weird and unnatural - iPhone game should never have a cursor.

      rRootage works fine being controlled with your finger on the play area, it's not hard to keep your finger away from the action.

      Bring on Truxton(Tatsujin) and Twin Cobra!

      Nothing to brag about. Some iphone's 2D shooters have prove you can use the actual hardware and have great control (S.Deadbeef, Dropship to name a few) and have FULL SCREEN gameplay. This game looks more like an emulator than an iPhone game.

      I for one would prefer to see the entire screen as well (and just use the area of your screen with the least action going on). Having a smaller play area just means you see less action the way I see it.
