"CatfishBlues Games has taken the score attack shooter genre and taken out most of the shooting, resulting in a fun, frantic, difficult game that arcade fans will surely enjoy." -- NintendoLife.com "Hyperlight is a feast for the senses and a worthy successor to the twin-stick shooters that led up to this title. While the learning curve is likely to put off some players, the challenge is well worth tackling head on and is recommended for those after something a bit more exciting than the usual shooter." -- AppSpy.com Information Seller:Alessandro Avigni Genre:Action, Arcade Release:Feb 15, 2017 Updated:Feb 27, 2017 Version:1.0.2 Size:119.3 MB TouchArcade Rating: User Rating: (1) Your Rating:unrated Compatibility:HD Universal Video of the 3DS version: Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel anthony78 Well-Known Member Nov 13, 2015 3,128 704 113 #2 anthony78, Feb 17, 2017 Is this the same as the original but republished?

So it should be a new experience and it's 4.99/$ when you buy it from the e-shop for the DS. So 0.99 is a steal for this EXtra version of this iOS classic! anthony78 Well-Known Member Nov 13, 2015 3,128 704 113 #5 anthony78, Feb 17, 2017 Cool.

JCho133 Well-Known Member Jul 27, 2012 7,907 27 48 #12 JCho133, Feb 18, 2017 Correct, tilt based like Tilt to Live. There were V stick controls added in the original game iirc though esty8nine Well-Known Member Dec 21, 2013 1,044 0 0 #13 esty8nine, Feb 18, 2017 So this game is ONLY tilt to control no options for v stick ? Copesan Member Sep 23, 2016 10 0 0 #14 Copesan, Feb 18, 2017 Main Arcade mode control is virtual stick with a single button for attacking. There's a "Panic Mode" which is tilt though. Correct, this isn't a dual stick shooter. moonsault Member Mar 7, 2011 19 0 0 #15 moonsault, Feb 18, 2017 I bought the old Hyperlight several years ago and I must say that this is much better in all aspects.

It's a shame I missed the original that's in the AppStore but I love these neon arcade games Brings back nostalgic memories of the eighties and going to the arcade to play Pac-Man or Galaga but it has to be good and this one is good I played this on my daughters 3DS Now I get to play it some more on my Ipad
