Club) Your uncle's space mining business is under threat from an Evil Corporation, and you're the only one who can save it! There are just two problems: your mining license doesn't allow you to mine very far, and your ship is a hunk of junk. Luckily, the solution to both problems is to head out into the galaxy and get mining! Blast asteroids to find the valuable ore they contain. While the space rocks won't fight back, there are plenty of enemy ships that will. Use the money you get from mining to upgrade your ship in the way you want, allowing you to go farther and survive longer. Uncover special ship parts and maps to new galaxies where more riches await. Find amazing secrets and expand your mining operation as you enjoy the unfolding story. The universe awaits! ** Supports MFi, XBox, and PlayStation Controllers ** - Classic Arcade Action: Use your thrusters to move around the asteroid fields, blasting space rocks and enemies alike with your ship's weapons. - Customize Your Ship: You worked hard for your money, so you get to decide how you're going to spend it. New lasers? A bigger cargo hold? Stronger shields? It's up to you! - Uncover Advanced Technology: Get your hands on some cool permanent upgrades that persist between games... if you can find them! - Blast the Enemies: Whether it's robot pirates looking to steal your ore or corporate goons trying to throw a wrench in your business, the best way to negotiate is with your ship's lasers! - HardcORE Mode: Looking for the ultimate challenge? Try HardcORE mode, where your first death is also your final one. Things are a lot more tense when you have just one life to live!

This game is to the iOS platform as metroid is to NES. It's JUST that DAM GREAT!! If by chance you have not had an opportunity to play this game, and your a gamer, your robbing yourself of such a remarkable gaming time. You MIGHT get 2-4 A+ gaming titles a year... Where everything comes together perfrctly.. Graphics, story, world physics, game mechanics, controls, variety of game play, replay ability.... This is one of those games. Once you play this game and beat it, game will stay with you as every other future title is judged. I was so looking forward to a proper part 2... I hope they deliever Edit: please please no free to play... I'll preorder the game right now!!! Or if free a option to buy the game out right! This game is so awesome!!!

If you like asteroid-like games, pick this one up. Amenbrother Well-Known Member Jun 24, 2011 6,659 7 38 #9 Amenbrother, Feb 18, 2015 What kind of game is this can you give me some examples of other games on the app store now? Thats how I like to see if its my type of game nowadays. Rain1dog Well-Known Member Jul 31, 2010 870 0 16 #10 Rain1dog, Feb 18, 2015 At its heart it's a dual stick shooter/rpg. It's not all about just killing npcs but a WONDERFUL mini game by mining the ore from destroying asteroids and leveling up your tractor beam to put together insane chains for HUGE bonuses in cash to be able to upgrade your hull, weapons, shields, reactors, engines. You can hook up different hulls for different play styles. Heavy weapons, light weapons, less weapons more mining... Do yourself a favor... Just buy this game... Your in for one of the best gaming expierenced of your gaming life if you have never played this. It's masterfully done in every aspect.

Have been waiting for this since I first heard about it! Now, hoping devs will start making the sequel! Anyone knows if the devs are on here? If so, maybe give a update if they are working on a sequel? Rain1dog Well-Known Member Jul 31, 2010 870 0 16 #15 Rain1dog, Feb 18, 2015 I've played this game from start to finish in 3 different devices, going for number 4 now.
