    Yes you are correct. The game is based on area of effect spells, with different ranges. It's very combo based, meaning you can't just spam skills and hope to go very far, there are mechanics you have to account for.

    The usage of skills is like the usual placement of towers in a tower defense game, you touch the icon and drag to the place where you want to use it.

    Well, thanks :)

    About the beta test, we are still not sure. If there are quite some people in this forum willing to beta test the game we will probably organize that for touchArcade users.

    Oh yeah, forgot to mention that this will be a universal app as that's always a welcome bonus. :)
    The development is going according to plan so expect this to be available around mid august or earlier.

    In the video, it just shows 3 spells. Are those the only things in your arsenal, or are there other things you can use to combat the monsters?

    There are 3 spells plus the basic shot you begin with. The spells aren't available right away so you'll have to unlock them as the hero gains experience points. XP also allows the evolution of spells. There will also be other heroes to choose from with different abilities, although our first release will probably only have one. Others will come through updates for sure.

    We are setting up a beta test using Test Flight App ( https://testflightapp.com/ ). It will soon be available and we'll post more details about it. You can register in advance and provide us with your registration email so we can invite you once it is set up.

    I'm really glad to see interest in the beta test. We're just finishing up some details on the game and we'll put it up for test real soon. Expect it this week.

    In the meantime, if anyone else would also like to help with beta testing, just leave us your testflight email so we can invite you.

    None of us knew that "Pixel Junk Monsters" game before someone pointed that for the first time so our game is in no way related to it, at least not more than any random thing could be..

    We're currently working on sound effects and some polishment to the game overall. We hope to be able to get the testing up before the weekend.

    We're really excited about the game, it has become a lot better in every aspect than what we were expecting and had planned.

    We've added lots of challenging aspects to the game which make you a lot stronger the better player you are/become. We also have a lot of customization on the spell evolution so that each person can fit it to their playstyle.

    We're really looking forward to hearing some feedback so we can improve even more! Stay tunned, it will be worth it :)

    To everybody wanting to become a beta tester we are working really hard to make the game ready for testing still today. In the event that it's not ready on time it will definitely be ready for testing on Friday. We have all the emails of the people that replied to this thread and so, all of you will be notified when the first beta build is ready for download.
    BTW, we also welcome testers that have access to older devices as well, like iPhone 3G or iPod Touch 2G.
