Hey Kiwi- Sorry you're having trouble with some aspects of the game. In the future if you do end up reinstalling the game- All your weapons that you've purchased are stored in the 'drawer' along the bottom of the ship equip menu. For example if you hit the yellow machine gun icon that drawer comes up- You will see a quantity in the top right of each component. That is how many of each type you have. If its 0, the component appears transparent on your ship and you need to purchase it before leaving the screen. You won't be prompted to purchase anything that you already have pieces of. I just tried to recreate what you've described, I suspect you may have hit the clear button instead of the upgrade button? I hope that makes more sense.
That's weird, I never get the inventory bug. Me and my brother is having a blast with this game! It's very fun to get a match with my brother. But maybe this game will be better if the tutorial and the difficulty are improved. Also, my touch screen doesn't respond that well on my iPhone 4.
Thanks for the heads up- I think we found the bug and it has been addressed in the update that is out now. We've also re-worked the tutorial and added a guide that should describe the game mechanics and how things work better.
I enjoy the game, but what's up with the communication button? It seem like a mislabeled self destruct button. I saw no warning in the instructions, and if you hit it by accident there seems no way out. Not complaining, just looking for a clue...
Hey elethana- so it looks like you've found a bug- sending a message will destroy you for some reason. We'll get that patched up asap. For now, you should be able to tap the communication button again and back out of the menu without dying. Sorry about the bug, and thank you for pointing that out!
