✔ Online multiplayer through GameCenter
✔ Join one of four intergalactic Leagues
✔ Unlockable characters and weapons
✔ Customize and upgrade to match your play style

I'll be typing out all responses in the form of a one-handed, painkiller induced rant thanks to a freshly broken hand. So please, go easy .

Great question. It works on non-gyro devices with swipe controls, and you can toggle between gyro and swipe on all other devices. I'll add that to the post!

Dude...I'm sorry for the terrible things developers have put you through, haha. If your device runs iOS 4.3, it runs all of our games. So that's a big "yes."

How is that even possible? Isn't it almost identical to iPhone 4 hardware? If devs are supposed to be abandoning two year old devices, we didn't get the memo.

Guess we'll have to cut touch 4 support in the first update...we'll credit you in the App Store description for the idea

1. Arena is the intergalactic combat league! Have you been living under a rock for the last 9 million years?

2. I'll be fine...although it turns out it's not so easy to develop a gyro game with one hand!

3. Hahaha, check your PMs as well. We went ultra-stealth and hardly promoted this game at all, so we've got more promo codes than we know what to do with.

Oh hahaha, no no, it's only been a couple weeks of this. The majority of the dev cycle I had two highly functional hands, plus my brother (the other half of Naquatic)'s two hands. That's an overall average of like 3.8 hands. No excuses.
