    I have a couple of questions:

    If I beat the last mission, is the game automatically over? Or can I go back to other fields and 100% complete them?

    One of the alien tech devices says "+20% damage if all weapons are energy".
    Does this include weapons that are "high energy" or only if its "energy"?

    Don't know the answer to the second question. On the first one: no, you can't go back and finish all the sectors. Once you beat the last mission the game is over.

    High energy counts as an energy weapon.

    great game really. makes sitting on the throne a real pleasure ;)

    visuals are just top notch, sound is great, lots of customization possibilities, quite a long game (took me some 4 hours to beat on first try, now doing another), tons of achievements... a must have really

    if I could suggest something to the devs:
    1) add an option to skip through the text, especially when someone plays for second/third time
    2) allow users to skip through some of the cutscenes (like ship flying to the base after finishing level)
    3) music... not everyone likes that style, but it surely is original :D

    It's already in there. Once you've played through, when you play through again you can hit the SKIP button on the text scenes.

    Venan already mentioned the soon to be released update will allow users to play their own tunes.

    Sorry if this has been said over and over again as I'm sure it has, but this is a terrific game! I really hope their is some type of sequel or expansion to this excellent game!

    Agreed. this game makes me...EXPLODE!
     
  10. Space Miner II? Yeah, I can see there being plenty of sequel material here. New storyline, new characters to meet/run afoul of, new enemies, gear, etc. Plenty of ideas to go around. :)

    In the mean time though I think this game has replay value, and I can see myself going through it again once I've completed it.

    This game is great, no doubt one of the most original and best games I have for my iPhone. Would love for there to be more licenses though, in about 3 days I maxed out at level 6. There should be more achievements that you can unlock, would love to see openfeint with this.

    There should be different types of missions, the ones that are there are very fun but they get kind of repetitive. I hope this dev is up to updating this game a bunch because it is very good, but it is also not cheap so would like to see some free updates coming up. keep up the good work
     
  12. Are you stark raving bonkers? Not cheap? Not cheap? Dude, it's $2. Two freakin' dollars. The second lowest price category. Less than the cost of a good coffee. That's absurdly cheap for what you get. They could have charged $5 and gotten away with it, it's worth at least that.

  19. Not yet it isn't. So at the moment it remains an absolute steal. They could have introduced it at $4.99 and still had loads of sales. :)

    He's saying he hates it because it's sucking up all his time that should have been spent doing other things. I have to agree with him on that point; I should be working on my game but this one has turned me into a totally unproductive couch potato obsessively mining asteroids.

    It had been at $4.99. Lots of us bought back then. This is a sale.
