The wait is almost over: Star Command is coming to iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad on May 2. Yup, you read that right — War Balloon‘s sci-fi battle and tragedy simulation game is coming later this week. As planned, it’ll debut as a Universal app for $2.99. Also, it apparently won’t support in-app purchases, which is neat.
If you haven’t been in the loop, this celebratory launch trailer should get you up to speed in no time. Watch as the player’s ship turns into a burning, useless husk! Note how hull breaches create vacuums and suck crew members out of their rooms! When things go bad in Star Command, they go real bad, man.
We’ll continue covering the game, of course and should have a review and some other nice things ready around launch. But, anyway: hey, guys, Star Command! It’s finally coming!
