Earlier this month we reviewed Yose Widjaja’s rather unique iPhone game Space Ninja [App Store].
Space Ninja is set up like a traditional vertical shooter in which you control the flight of a spaceship. Instead of shooting the enemies, however, the objective is to dodge enemy fire by-the-skin-of-your-teeth and make it to the end of each level. There are 40 progressively difficult levels and 5 challenge levels. The accelerometer-controlled game features an unlimited “bullet time” (slow motion) mode where by simply tapping down and holding your finger to the screen, the action slows down and the view slowly zooms in so you can perform more exact movements.
Those who’ve spent any real time with Space Ninja know that the game is quite a challenge. And so we were rather impressed to see the video posted by forum member ‘spmwinkel’ showing evidence of his completion of all 40 levels without using powerups. His completion of the final level can be seen in the video below.
Strong work, spmwinkel.
