    @Echoseven auto opening doors definitely but I’ve used a few manual doors on two different levels now and nobody chased me through them yet.

    Distraction is great, I love the little noisy can...I just bought proximity mines and the cluster pipe bomb and want to use both but those noisy cabs are just so damn op.

    Not 007? :p

    Mine is something like 356. No particular significance, I intentionally picked something few other people would have.

    Overlooked the release of this until a week ago. If you liked the first two, you’re definitely gonna enjoy this one as well.

    Had been worried for a second there part 3 would have become a Free 2 Play title - Luckily it’s basically like a (short) free demo with the option to unlock all additional content for a fair one time price.

    The second chapter is out for $5, if you have the first chapter already, you get a discount for $3,
    it seems that there is even a bundle with both chapters for $8.

    Nice. Must get back to it and finish off the first one.

    Not sure why I stalled on it, I was enjoying it.

    So I can get the first for $3 and the second for $5, or both for $8. They sure drive a hard bargain with the bundle.

    Got it and tried the first stealth one. Tough!

    Need to give them a proper go.

    OMG looks like all of games from Pixelbite are gone, anyone knows what happened?

    BTW
    I am regretful for turning on the 'Offload Unused Apps'.

    Well, that's too bad. I think I didn't get many of their games and the Space Marshals games didn't really grab me, but I liked some of their racing games (I even played one of them a few months ago). Hopefully it's just another case of "Oops! Forgot to renew my developer account!" situation.

    As for offloading apps, I never let iThings take actions over what I rather have manual control of (over?). Make sure you disable it, as well as automatic updates (if you have a decent/fast internet connection, it won't make a huge difference, updates won't take long to download and you'll make informed decissions after reading changelogs, if you decide to do so); also, if you have some free time and available storage on a PC, you can use an older version of iTunes to download apps from the AppStore while they're still available (unfortunately, apps that have been delisted, even if they still appear under your iDevice's purchase history, can't be downloaded this way).

    That's how I've managed to keep some of the old games, and pre-subscription versions of utility apps, that somehow come in handy nowadays in the face of such a horrible predatory ("service-oriented") market the AppStore has become.

    Wow, it is not even on the purchase history. I have some of them still installed but it means that on the next new device, bye-bye...
    Really sad news!

    Not sure what’s going on. The direct link in the OP works (at least in the US).

    https://apps.apple.com/us/app/space-marshals-3/id1501495423

    And all their games are live in the US store if you if you tap on “More by Pixelbite” on that page.

    But the weird thing is that if you search the App Store for Space Marshals, Pixelbite, or even Reckless Racing, nothing pops up. And games that I know I own are showing up as available for purchase, not download (though when I repurchased Reckless Racing 3, it told me that the “update” was free since I’d already purchased the game).

    Pixelbite’a last game (Cypher 007) was codeveloped with Tilting Point. I wonder if there’s some kind of ownership shift going on. They haven’t sent out a tweet since 2023 (ironically, a link to a press release for ta Space Marshall movie supposedly in production).

    Hopefully we’ll hear something soon.

    Luckily I’ve still got them all installed, but hopefully they all come back. Wouldn’t want people to miss out on them in the future, space Marshals especially.

    @squarezero that link does work for me in the U.K. too. But I couldn’t find it searching it.

    I find all the games are up again! Maybe they just forgot to extend the developer access I guess.

    Glad this thread was bumped. Reminds me I have to play these games more ! Good old classics

    can’t remember the name of a similar space cowboy game I played ages ago on iOS. Isn’t on the App Store anymore but was excellent.

    Same. Just checked and none of the games I had show for download and even though they all have a pricetag, I got the same pop-up message. So, maybe, it was actually an "Oops" case.

    For some reason, though, even after "purchasing" previously linked games, they're not being added back to purchase history. Just finished downloading Repulze but it's not showing there nor under the hidden purchases list.

    This is MY favorite space cowboy videogame. Not a shooter, though, so it's probably not the one you're talking about. It's one of my [safely] kept apps, since it's gone from the store, including purchase history.
