    Shane, you really made my Week man. And it's only Monday. Those tweets were rough. Glad I saved a few dollars in credit just in case something like this snuck out.

    Congrats on the release. I expect this will surely get Featured too.

    You deserve it! I almost missed it. As its 9:15PST on Monday now. I don't usually expect anything on a Monday. But I can't help peek in here once every few hours.

    And I absolutely love it. From the bullet grazing, the ships, the upgrades and the metal band inspired level naming (yup I grew up in the 80's born in '78 and that's my culture). Pure sickness bro.

    Having fun!

    I really really really love the graphics style. I love the sensitivity slider in the options menu. I put it up to near max and it's now perfect for me.

    How do you unlock the other ship types ?

    Fantastic! So happy you're enjoying it. You spend so long making a game that you're just not sure at the end anymore.

    Delighted you're enjoying it!

    Ship types unlock with stages. So if you beat a stage you unlock the next ship type. There's some all destroying ones later.

    Aweeee. Do you have an iOS 7 device? I just couldn't support iOS 7 because there's parts of Starseed that actually use parts of iOS 8.1's SpriteKit that weren't available in iOS 7. It's not actually to do with the capability of the device or anything.

    The game description sounds good but the graphics look HORIBBLE, almost eye cancer inducing.
    Also in the trailer it seems like it could be hard at times to distinguish the gray ship from the gray background and all the crap flying around which for me is a big no no in shmups like these.

    The graphics are stunning and everything is distinguishable. If you haven't tried the game, you won't know that.

    Yet the trailer and the screenshots din't communicate that to me. At all.
    Then again maybe I'm the only one who looks at screenshots and videos before buying games?

    Agree with MC, graphics et al are perfect and everything is easily distinguishable. My only very small imperfection with it is that it's not Universal. Plays fine on my iPad at x2 but just wasn't expecting it to be iPhone only. Plays great on both devices though and I've only scratched the surface at breakfast time today. Top work.

    its not optimized for ipads? :-S
    x2 Mode produces blurry graphics and texts I noticed earlier on someother games. There are several examples.
    Or does it still deliver a nice experience in x2-mode? thx in advance.
