Welcome back DT!!! Thanks for the post! Speaking of things I haven't seen in a while, the game has a Pew Pew/Geometry Wars old school vibe to it that you know I dig! Looking forward to it.

Hello! Thanks for taking an interest in the game! I guess DT already posted the marketing blurb, so Ill just add a short video of the pre-release build Please fire away if you have any questions. Cheers, Rhys
Welcome Rhys! glad to see you got a video embedded on here I have not used this site for a bit, plus i could not find a youtube video to post... I have to say i cant wait to see more of the game, it looks great as Cygnet said loving the Retro style the game is having.
Star Drift Screenshots Thanks, I hope you enjoy it! Here are some pre-release screenshots from the iPad build... Larva are the bread-n-butter enemies. This shot is taken very early in the game when things are relatively easy going. The score multiplier is being maxed-out as the player destroys a mine. A tricky bit of space cave.... lots of credits to be scooped up. Some explosive action as the player chases a Pede through a mine-field.
Star Drift will be launching on the App Store on Tuesday 24th Feb. It's a full app with NO in-app-purchases. There will be a limited time promotion, so grab it early if you can! Check out the website ( squareheadstudios.co.uk ) for more info. Cheers!
