Help Glorkian Warrior and his trusty Super Backpack fight against an endless onslaught of alien creatures. In Glorkian Warrior, you play as a cadet out to prove his worth and maybe get a promotion or two. Your trusty Super Backpack will help you fend off the incoming attackers by firing a constant stream of lasers into the sky. Grab power-ups dropped by the enemies to gain temporary access to some Glorkin' good weapons. And if anything is too low to shoot, leap over it! It's good, classic shoot-em-up fun. Defeated enemies will drop energy crackers. The more of them you grab, the more cool stuff you'll unlock. Even if you have a terrible run, you'll still make some progress! Try not to have a terrible run, though. It's really bad for our hero's confidence! You can get fun things like basketballs! New weapons! More basketballs, but these ones explode! There are even some fun comics featuring our daring protagonist, drawn by James Kochalka himself. What are you waiting for? Get out there and collect those energy crackers! - Classic Shooting Action: Move side to side and shoot upwards, just like the old days! - Wild Power-Ups: Not only can you get some different weapons, you can also pick up extra power-ups to make them faster or stronger! - Huge Bosses: Seriously, these aliens are so big! What is up with that? - Tons to Unlock: New weapons, comics, decorations, and more! Become the President of Everything! - Multiple Control Options: Choose the way that works best for you! - Vibrant Graphics: It looks just like a cartoon! Who knew there were so many colors on these things? - Based on James Kochalka's graphic novel “The Glorkian Warrior Delivers a Pizza" GLORK! ************************************************** GameClub is a subscription mobile gaming service.

Reminds me of Commander Keen. TheFrost Well-Known Member Nov 18, 2010 5,772 0 0 #8 TheFrost, Mar 12, 2014 Game Impressions I beta enjoyed this for a month and will keep doing so for a long time. One of the best games on iOS so far that will never leave my iPhone. Cant wait for tonight to buy the full version with GameCenter. If you like any of the games in the genre, get it, its the best thing since Super Crossfire or Velocispider. Its even better because its just full of humor and awesome weapons and the character and the enemy are full of life and imagination. I just love it so much. It shows a long time of work. Everything is giving some thought and then some more to make it perfectly balanced. You play as Glork, an interplanetary guardian that saves the day every other tuesday from invading aliens that comes at you at full force. To do that you have 3 options EDGE (Touch edges to move, slide UP or tap both edges to jump, like in Boson X), a DPAD (Move and jump) and an alternative DPAD for left handed. You can also make them bigger or invisible. And controls are spot on. Before each game you will have a cutscene that is hilarious (you can skip it if you want) and then the game. Its endless and every game will be different (and more the more cubes you collect). There are a lot of awesome boss battles and many events that are a treat and spices up the game pretty good. There are different landscapes that have different attributes to make the fight even more interesting and varied if possible, and enemies comes in walking too and you can jump on their heads. There are so many enemies and enemies variations (they even evolve as you collect cubes) in this game. For variety and humor, its at the very top on iOS. Replayability is bigger than most of games like this because there is an unlock tree (it will take some time to unlock it all) and when you kill an enemy it releases a cube that works like coins. At the beginning is a bit bare bones but you collect cubes and unlock a new power up or any crazy gizmo at an perfect pace that spices the gameplay and keep making it more and more interesting the further you play. And there are a lot of this missions to keep you occupied for a long time. And there are boss battles and random events that just keep happening all the time. There are a lot of different enemies with different patterns. The game has NO IAP at all, is A PURE PREMIUM EXPERIENCE. I could keep praising it on and on and on and on... If you trust me and want this one or even if you remotely like what you see here, buy it. Its a guaranteed fun and awesome purchase. Gets my full recommendation, 15 out of 10 stars. Marvelous. A gem. Must buy. Edit: Sorry for the bad structure but Im ill today and not feeling very well. On the bright side, I will try to get to the top of the leaderboards PeteOzzy Well-Known Member Oct 30, 2013 4,596 3 0 Norwich, England #9 PeteOzzy, Mar 12, 2014 Well that's me sold! Biggavelli Well-Known Member Jul 7, 2011 1,106 0 0 Boston,MA #10 Biggavelli, Mar 12, 2014 ^^^ Me too. Exact-Psience Well-Known Member Jan 12, 2012 22,664 2 38 The Work-At-Home Guy Philippines #11 Exact-Psience, Mar 12, 2014 LOL... i have a struggling budget, and Frost's review killed it. awp69 Well-Known Member Oct 30, 2009 8,249 0 36 Greenville, SC #12 awp69, Mar 12, 2014 Me too but I also think this will be my only purchase tonight. TheFrost Well-Known Member Nov 18, 2010 5,772 0 0 #13 TheFrost, Mar 12, 2014 You guys will have a blast, I promise Collect those Energy Crackers (I called them cubes before) to unlock new things at a great natural pace -and what fun and awesome things you unlock there-, beat bosses, laugh at the scenes, get challenged, discover new scenery,... So many good things about it and not a single bad one. Bronxsta Well-Known Member Oct 10, 2012 4,698 6 38 http://indiegameenthusiast.blogspot.com/ #14 Bronxsta, Mar 12, 2014 Well...I'm sold. Great impressions, Frost. Looks like it's Glorkian and Amber Halls for me tonight ste86uk Well-Known Member May 9, 2012 6,774 1,000 113 #15 ste86uk, Mar 12, 2014 Been very tempted by this one and will likely be picking it up. Even more likely now after that review also. TheFrost Well-Known Member Nov 18, 2010 5,772 0 0 #16 TheFrost, Mar 12, 2014 I hear from the developer that it is too much action packed to work fluidly on an iPhone 4 or iPad 1. So sorry Bronxsta Well-Known Member Oct 10, 2012 4,698 6 38 http://indiegameenthusiast.blogspot.com/ #17 Bronxsta, Mar 12, 2014 Thanks for the heads up Edit: @Pixeljam if you're here Your Kickstarter mentioned PC, Mac, Linux. Is Glorkian Warrior still coming to those platforms as well? syntheticvoid Well-Known Member Jun 20, 2010 14,504 124 63 Musician & factory worker. a[V-O-I-D] http://apparentsymmetry.bandcamp.com #18 syntheticvoid, Mar 12, 2014 Sorry to ask... But... Controller support? I'm gonna get it either way, just wondering... wizardhowl Active Member Mar 6, 2014 26 0 0 #19 wizardhowl, Mar 12, 2014 @TheFrost Thanks so much for the awesome impressions - this is my purchase for the week! What device did you play it on? I'm on iPad 4 - not worried about it working, but just wondered if you tried iPhone or iPad? Wondering which one would be best? TheFrost Well-Known Member Nov 18, 2010 5,772 0 0 #20 TheFrost, Mar 12, 2014 I played on an iPhone 5. The buttons can be toggled in size or make transparent so I think is highly playable in both things. You will see it bigger and better I think (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
