Each planet is highly detailed and every weapon and explosion is a dazzling treat of lighting and particle effects. I would have unequivocally recommended Darkside if it cost any reasonable amount." : Touch Arcade : 90% "This is a fantastic twin-stick shooter, both in its free and paid versions, and if you have any kind of love for the genre then it cannot be resisted.

Worried its free as it might then have lots of IAP's, would prefer one price but i'll give it a go. Nice small filesize as well CygnetSeven Well-Known Member Feb 6, 2010 7,596 33 48 #4 CygnetSeven, Jun 25, 2012 Playing an advance copy of this. Great arcade fun and jaw dropping graphics, I easily donated a dollar for the extra content. What a great way to start the week. Highly recommended and you loose nothing by trying it! awp69 Well-Known Member Oct 30, 2009 8,249 0 36 Greenville, SC #5 awp69, Jun 25, 2012 There's only one IAP and that's to unlock the rest of the game. It comes with "arcade" mode. The $.99 IAP gives you a mission mode as well as a survival mode. Well worth the IAP. A fantastic DSS with great graphics and some of the best lighting I've seen on the iOS. CygnetSeven Well-Known Member Feb 6, 2010 7,596 33 48 #6 CygnetSeven, Jun 25, 2012 Only one for content. The free game is incredible by itself. Exact-Psience Well-Known Member Jan 12, 2012 22,664 2 38 The Work-At-Home Guy Philippines #7 Exact-Psience, Jun 25, 2012 IAP for full unlock is the best type of IAP in my opinion. It makes the game free to test out, and if liked, can be bought on the fly. callmericardo Well-Known Member Jun 23, 2011 310 0 0 #8 callmericardo, Jun 25, 2012 Ha ha. mashead2000 Well-Known Member Jan 22, 2011 1,144 0 36 Manager-Retail York - United Kingdom http://Www.YouTube.com/user/mashead2000 #9 mashead2000, Jun 25, 2012 Agreed!

It's a dual-stick 3D space shooter, it's universal and the game's Arcade mode (with Game Center) is entirely free. A single 'unlock full game' IAP of $0.99 adds two additional game modes (Missions & Survival) and upgrades the player’s ship to carry smart bombs. I'd love any feedback & suggestions and look forward to talking about the game here ... this forum was easily one of the best bits from my Kitten Sanctuary launch, so I've been looking forward to this : ) Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel Thanks & I hope you enjoy the game! Delusionaltool Well-Known Member Sep 24, 2009 1,677 46 48 ohio #15 Delusionaltool, Jun 25, 2012 wow this looks pretty sweet ill have to give it a try.. looks like some super stardust hd clone but a damn good one.... this game looks great.... Delusionaltool Well-Known Member Sep 24, 2009 1,677 46 48 ohio #16 Delusionaltool, Jun 25, 2012 Clockwork Pixels Well-Known Member Mar 24, 2012 120 1 16 #17 Clockwork Pixels, Jun 25, 2012 Thanks, hope you like the game : ) As for Super Stardust HD ... Darkside was actually first released in 2007 for the PC. The first I'd heard of Stardust was two weeks before Darkside's release (a fellow developer told me to take a look after seeing my demo). I was gutted the games looked so similar, assuming Id not be able to release my game, which I'd started over a year before! Thankfully, the developer of Stardust was great, appreciated Darkside was not a clone, and was happy for me to continue. I didnt get to play Stardust for another year after Darksides release (it was on the PS3), so I can comfortably say the game was not an influence. Thanks again! awp69 Well-Known Member Oct 30, 2009 8,249 0 36 Greenville, SC #18 awp69, Jun 25, 2012 Not do rain on the dev's excitement for the game's release, but there's already a thread for this: http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=141927 Fabulous game so if you're a DSS fan, it should be on your list when it hits tonight. Clockwork Pixels Well-Known Member Mar 24, 2012 120 1 16 #19 Clockwork Pixels, Jun 25, 2012 Ah, I was hoping I'd be okay to add a feedback request thread? I'm not trying to take away from Sanuku's announcement/youtube thread. I've been looking forward to creating this thread for weeks (I've even been talking about the creation of this thread in the game's promo codes thread) ... but I've been waiting for the game's release in the US/UK, so yes, Sanuku beat me to it. Please let me know if I've gone wrong, and if so, please accept my apologies and delete this thread. It's going to be a good few hours, I'm going to stay up until it does ... I keep refreshing Game Center to see if anyone new has posted a score!
