Buckle up for a rip roarin' action packed sandbox space arcade shootem'up for mobile, PC, Mac, Linux and more. Depending on funding, our team will build for additional platforms. We've rigorously play-tested Sol Avenger to find a perfect balance between quality and performance. This game is playable, running at a high responsive frame-rate on android and PC right now. We have developed an entire solar system modeled after our home Sol system with over 40 different enemy types, 10 different player weapons, achievements, missions, power-ups, bosses, planets, asteroids, comets, moons and other types explorable celestial bodies. We also plan on adding more achievements, missions, space stations, space debris fields, cities, space stations built into asteroids, and much more. Player control has been tested and polished to the point where it feels incredibly fluid on touchscreen or PC. Blasting away at the alien invaders feels really smooth and satisfying. Players can fly directly in and out of celestial bodies seamlessly, in real time. For example, the player can fly around earth and explore it then fly upwards into space rising above the clouds to burst through the atmosphere into space without loading times. It's a fully realized universal sandbox ready for exploration and we plan on adding so much more. Finally, the terrain, atmosphere, lighting, mountains, valleys, rivers, lakes, oceans and so on react to the way the game is played. Many factors can change the way space and celestial bodies look like over time reacting as the variables dictate to further immerse the player in the universe making it look and feel realistic.

Hope you guys give this a check, it's still in development, but the dev is focused on the mobile android first, so should mean a close follow by iOS. He's going to be posting a kickstarter to raise more money for additional platforms. I don't know about you, but the trailer had me when all the ships started swarming earth.
Don't quote me on this, but I believe the dev posted Q3 2015. As I said he's developing this on android, but intends to follow with iOS. Like with any game, this could obviously be pushed back. I invited the developer to the forums, he said once he has updates he'll start posting here as well.
Below screenshot captures of the game and according to dev, this is from the android build, which is pretty awesome. Images are big, didn't know how to resize them for the forums so just posted the links instead. Sorry if I seem like a fan boy, just excited to see this for mobile!!! http://media.indiedb.com/images/games/1/36/35377/Screenshot_-_10_9_2014_1_27_17_AM.png http://media.indiedb.com/images/games/1/36/35377/Screenshot_-_10_12_2014_11_22_52_AM.png http://media.indiedb.com/images/games/1/36/35377/Screenshot_-_10_2_2014_1_00_52_AM.png
