I bought it when it came out in '09 and it's still been one of the better iOS games I've ever played - excellent graphics, gameplay, controls - it's very well done.

Bought this back when I had a 2nd gen, was one of the first iOS games I ever got. It's a fantastic title, but Mutant Storm and Bug Panic outdo it. AnarKitty Well-Known Member Oct 10, 2010 3,654 0 0 Minneapolis, USA #12 AnarKitty, Aug 31, 2012 Haven't played it in awhile, but for anyone who likes dual stick shooters, this is a must-get for free. MeanTuna Well-Known Member Feb 20, 2012 752 0 16 Writer #13 MeanTuna, Sep 1, 2012 For free everyone should try it, an ios classic in my point of view. awp69 Well-Known Member Oct 30, 2009 8,249 0 36 Greenville, SC #14 awp69, Sep 1, 2012 Last edited: Sep 1, 2012 Great game, but other than the pitch perfect controls and good graphics, I still think games like Infinity Field, Alien Space Retro, Inferno+, PewPew 2, Darkside and Beat Hazard Ultra have overcome it as far as compelling gameplay is concerned. (Just mentioning the space themed DSS games) BUT it's definately a must have for any DSS lover and still arguably has some of the, if not the, best DSS controls. Just been something I really haven't gone back to much. I'd love to see a sequel to it as I'm sure with the advancements on the iOS the devs could really blow the original away. I can't speak for Mutant Storm other than playing the XBLA demo. Wish it would come to the iPhone/iPod!! S.I.D. CrAzY Well-Known Member May 16, 2009 4,477 3 36 #15 S.I.D.

Of course, I know of the iPad version (and have been jealous ever since). Did read through some of it though and it's sad to see that the dev didn't do very well on the iOS.

On another note, does anyone know what happened to Alley Labs? Doesn't look like they put much out on the iOS, which is surprising because I thought Meteor Blitz was successful. S.I.D.

Disregard my post then Connector Well-Known Member May 6, 2012 15,512 1 0 In the Chatroom http://thechatroom.freeforums.net/ #18 Connector, Sep 1, 2012 Yeah, the developer for Mutant Storm was trying to make it universal after release, but now that the game hasn't done as well, both the much longed for update and universal version are probably scrapped for good. But even without the update, Mutant Storm still has to be hands down the best dual stick shooter on ios. Sure wish Meteor Blitz was universal, it has really good gameplay, so I'm sure would play very well on my new ipad. S.I.D. CrAzY Well-Known Member May 16, 2009 4,477 3 36 #19 S.I.D.
