    The graphics look good. There aren't nearly enough bullets though. Is it universal or retina?

    Universal, and the video doesn't show too much action, but in hard mode I can tell you, there's more than enough bullets... Hehehehe

    Have in mind that this is a beta, we expect to polish a lot of details before release, and we are still a few months ahead of the expected release date so....

    it looks great, and with just little polish on the enemy ships and icade support, this could be one sweet game.

    This game looks like it's right up my alley. I prefer non-bullet hell shmups as long as they're done well.
    Hopefully it'll sport relative touch.

    iCade support would be icing on the cake.

    Same here ! So important to get those right. Graphics look like they could be great but i hope controls dont ruin it

    There will be 3 control types to select on the options menu:

    -drag your finger around to move the ship, not necessarily touching on the ship itselft, also you can touch on a position and the ship will go there automatically, some kind of "one touch control".
    -another relative touch control similar to the previous one but without the "one touch control".
    -gravity control, with some inertia to the ship (really fun to play with)

    Also the icade support is planned and hopefully will be on release, this game is a pleasure to play with a joystick :)

    Another detail, the video was taken from the EASY MODE, so just a few enemies and bullets, hard mode should be pleasant for all "experts"

    Hi again guys, I was really busy at work this summer, so the art content of FullBlast progresses slowly... slowly but surely :)

    Here you can see a couple of models more for this game and I'll post soon pictures of the next levels showing the art of the new tileset.

    Looking good. The control options (especially relative touch, the second one) sounds good, count me in.

    Must admit this game looks too good to be true ! Love the graphics, controls sound like they'll be good. Please dont make it some freemium timer-fest etc ;)

    There won't be any in-app purchases, well only one, to unlock the full game. Instead of a lite and the full we will release the full version with a few levels for free (like any lite version), and an option to buy the full game.
    Yes, we will stick with the classic "buy" option, we don't like freemium bullshit. With a bit of luck people will want to pay 0.99$ to pay the game :)
