Hopefully, a full-game unlock or a system like Phoenix HD where other ships are the IAPs.

I agree this looks good. And i hope the IAPs are favorable too. psj3809 Moderator Jan 13, 2011 12,966 718 113 England #5 psj3809, Mar 26, 2014 Yep freemium scares me but you never know it might be okay. But the main thing for me are the controls, i 'presume' its relative touch which is essential for these types of games Qwertz555 Well-Known Member May 22, 2010 2,318 29 48 #6 Qwertz555, Mar 26, 2014 Last edited: Mar 26, 2014 I adore Phoenix and Danmaku, but i wish to say someday "The king is dead, long live the king". I doubt it here, online with Skillz and 'before times runs out' sounds...don't wanna pre-judge, we'll see soon. Edit: downloaded two lite versions of them, both shmups, the controls are quite good and plus one year of experience since then...very curious about this one.

Stick to Phoenix HD, DoDonPachi, Danmaku, or whatever else you have. Relative touch. The autofire is kinda weird in that it has a cooldown after a couple of shots. Your starting gun is a single shot accompanied by homing missiles. Upgrades turn it into a spread. To upgrade your weapon, either build up and keep a combo by killing every enemy in a wave or get power ups that upgrade it by 1 level. Lose your combo and your shots downgrade to level 1. One stage takes around 3 minutes to finish. The overall experience just wasn't fresh or exciting though. No Game Center so you're stuck with Skillz. No leaderboard but you've got stats. I encountered a bug where I could no longer control my ship even after losing a life. Pausing did nothing. Game over resolved it. For science, PS3 controller doesn't work. Video later but you can try it for free anyway.

Sanuku Well-Known Member Jun 14, 2009 11,954 4 38 Austria http://www.touchgameplay.com #14 Sanuku, Mar 26, 2014 Really doesn`t matter at all since the Game is still bugged as hell. In the last couple of Gameplay Minutes the hole Game wasn`t reacting to anything I did on the Screen. Don`t know why someone would consider such a Build read to ship...
