Wow looks very impressive. Great price as well, trailer is excellent, hope it lives up to what i've seen so far. Roll on Oct 29th !
Wow very impressive looking! Yeah it looks just like GOF2, but that's a good thing! Definitely interested in seeing more of this.
Yes, it can be run on iPod Touch 4, but make sure that no other memory hungry app are running concurrently.
So expect crashes some like galaxy on fire 2 hd...um 99 cents... Hell why not ill grab it I can always redownload on the touch 5 or 55 depends on when I upgrade lol
Need more space-themed games on iOS. Frankly Divine Space has neater graphics, but this one should suffice after finishing Supernova.
As we have spent quite a long time to re-invent the battle gameplay, hope you enjoy both the gameplay and graphics.
Is combat still the same as the original?* And do you have any freedom of movement during travel?** *sorry, just saw your post that it has changed, could you explain how? ** not as important, just curious if any changes here
The battle system is redesigned. It is now a bit like GOF2. You can control the movement of the ship, find and shoot your target, and also defense with shield. The battle emphasizes on fitting your ship with different equipments, as there are 22 types of equipments. 14 of them can be controlled by player, whereas 8 of them are passive ones.
Will check it out, wasn't a great fan of the originals combat or missions but I did respect content and production values.
Just got the first one it is good my only problem missions having a deadline if freeform is in prelude then that will make it a pain trying to rush to complete.
We keep part of the UI system and introduce some new ones. For example, there is now a 3D ship factory where you build and recycle ships. You can level up a factory so that you can build better ship.
