The Bug Butcher Noodlecake *** WARNING: DUE TO HEAVY GRAPHIC AND PROCESSING REQUIREMENTS, THE BUG BUTCHER IS ONLY COMPATIBLE WITH IPAD MINI 2+, IPA… TouchArcade Rating: $3.99 Buy Now Watch Media Details*** WARNING: DUE TO HEAVY GRAPHIC AND PROCESSING REQUIREMENTS, THE BUG BUTCHER IS ONLY COMPATIBLE WITH IPAD MINI 2+, IPAD 3+, IPHONE 5+ AND iPOD TOUCH 6TH GENERATIONS. *** Reviews: "Squashing Makes Me Feel Good!" - Touch Arcade 5/5 "It’s just brilliant fun. Shoot stuff, smile, shoot more stuff." - Pocket Gamer 9/10 The Bug Butcher is an intense action shooter, wrapped in stylistic 2D art, and smeared with humor where timing and fierce reflexes are paramount! The gameplay has an extremely simple core mechanic that is easy to understand, but hard to master. Plus, who doesn’t love a universe where you wield a beefy arsenal of military grade weaponry. The core mechanics hold old ties from the classic arcade shooter “Super Pang” where you shoot vertically, but with modern day twists. You are Harry, a brash and tenacious exterminator who has a knack for decimating bugs. Harry’s current assignment takes him to the infested futuristic research facility on planet Zoit. The surviving and dwindling number of scientists employed him for his slaughtering skills. Harry’s mission: survive until the decontamination of the building is complete, hoard coins like his life depended on it, and protect the scientists at all costs. Watch out for the spiders as they have a particular fondness for rubber encased scientists. After landing, you will move from room to room through the facility blasting rockets, lasers, and wielding the power of lighting upwards at anything not human.

Yanagi Well-Known Member Sep 30, 2015 246 0 16 Medicine #9 Yanagi, Dec 20, 2016 Last edited: Dec 20, 2016 It was on sale when I posted this, but suddenly the price reverted back to its original in the past hour. I can't tell if they flipped the switch by accident, or if they do plan to initiate a sale but it activated earlier than planned. I thought there's going to be a holiday feature in the next refresh since there have been other sales today. (Space Marshals 2, Never Alone: Ki Edition, etc.) For now the sale for Bug Butcher appears to have disappeared. I'll keep an eye out in case it returns in the U.S. front.

Kainamor Well-Known Member Dec 17, 2015 196 0 16 #11 Kainamor, Dec 20, 2016 Hmm I don't know how I missed that. Since this was posted I have been checking it every couple hours and never saw it at 0.99$ BazookaTime Well-Known Member Sep 30, 2009 5,340 1 36 Kansas http://www.paulmcraelind.com #12 BazookaTime, Dec 20, 2016 Same, must have been super quick. Gamer1st Well-Known Member Mar 19, 2013 775 0 0 None. But I dream about being able to work again. USA #13 Gamer1st, Dec 20, 2016 I saw it at .99 at about 9ish eastern time but it gave me a "this app is being altered, check back later" message. I figured it would be ok at 12 but it was back to the ciurrent amount then. Oh well. I'll get it next time. Same thing happened with Vanquisher and a brief .99 drop. Either mistake or on purpose it went back down a couple weeks later.
