    Hi!

    Game Name: River Raid
    Release Date: 06/26/14
    Price: Free

    River Raid iOS AppStore Link: (available on 06/26/14)
    http://itunes.apple.com/app/id888368779

    So, What’s unique about this remake of Atari 2600 River Raid?!

    1. I’ve used original maps of river raid for creating them! The only problem is that placing each item in maps takes time, so I’ve decided to add 60 maps in each update…

    2. The game is totally free!
    The player has 3 lives to play. In the game over menu, there is an option that players could continue the game by watching a video ad!

    3. This is the exact clone of River Raid!
    We tried to make the exact clone of this fantastic game with its marvelous atmosphere in every possible aspects of the original game (sounds, graphics, gameplay, scoring, etc.) and added few touches here and there, like adding Game Center for online scores.

    The differences are that this one has exact same maps as original one and it's free!

    Got a feeling this app might not survive long if Activision see it!

    I'm all for remakes/homages or even clones but when the original is actually in the app store already (Via the Activision app) i dont see the point.

    Wish people would remake/clone/homage retro games which arent available on the app store !

    I'll add it in future updates.

    @psj3809:

    Yeah, I've seen that app, But this clone has some features that original one doesn't have!

    1. Game Center
    2. Accelerometer control
    3. It's Free!
    4. You could continue the game after game over with watching video ads!

    Wow I loved River Raid can't wait to give it a go again, I hope this trend continues and we see other classics including Apple ][ classic like Miner 2049 and Ultima.

    Man, River Raid was my favourite game on ZX Spectrum! Now I want to play other gems like Commando or Cybernoid :D

    Btw, what about adding option for "intuitive" touch controls (without gyroscope)? But still, I wonder how long until the game will be pulled from the store .. will it even make it? :) Also I am not a big fan of video ads but it's an alternative.

    PS.: thanks for code, I got FF4M794LJELH

    It's been available for ages though via the activision app

    Even miner 2049er is out with a retro mode already

    As for the zx spectrum you can add your own games via spectaculator

    So, I guess the game has been already pulled from the store for copyright violation?

    I like retro games, but...

    What's the point of making it and advertizing using registered trademarks while there are:
    - dozens of RR clones on AS already there
    - Atari watchdogging for copyright infringements
    ?
