Your ship constantly moves left+right, and you'll need to stop the ship to not run into asteroids and to collect stars. Once you build up your star gauge, you go into warp mode, and you need to tap on the screen as quick as you can to boost up your warp speed (up to 4 levels), and collect gems (during the warp) - there are IAPs for gems, and a shop where you can either upgrade your minimum speed, slow down your maximum speed, purchase consumables; Nose Cone Drill which lets you survive one asteroid collision, and Star Magnets, which lets you collect 5 missed stars. You can also purchase Friends which help you gain more gems (The Fare, who gives you 1 gem for every 10 light years traveled), or add to your consumable item storage (The Trailer - tripple storage capacity) - There are also 2 extra hulls, both costing a considerable amount of gems (200,000 and 300,000) but not adding any stats, they're just cosmetic.

The IAPs are;

15,000 for $0.99
50,000 for $1.99
150,000 for $2.99
500,000 for $4.99

Oh man, I'm so stoked for this!

Was on the fence. That makes for an easy decision. Thanks.

Is that an easy decision towards "yes" or "no"?

I would say "No"

I think you know.

After The Last Rocket (one of the best games of the platform), how can I not buy this? Insta-Buy

Haha, see...normally I'd be with sink or swim and would assume you'd say "No". But in this case, with the largest IAP being $4.99, and this being from the same dude who gave us The Last Rocket...ermm...yes?

Note:

So bad I actually can`t believe I did pay for it...

Control System? - Forget it. The Space Ship is constandly moving from left to right and you only have the Option to stop it for a few seconds before you get killed by the Explosion of a Planet. If that`s Fun, you must be probably a masochist.

Upgrades? - Sure. Pay some Dollars to get enough Coins to pay for Upgrade,...

What many other Developers would sell as an Free Upgrade is here charged with 99 Cent. While I doesn`t care about the Money I had expected from Shaun Inman a lot more then some basic Runner Game for masochist.

Conclusion:

Masochist will love it, everyone else probably not.

I thought The Last Rocket was "ok." Honestly didn't think it was remotely special though or see what the fuss was about. Perhaps I gave it away too quickly, but then I played it for as long as it held my interest.

Sanuku, is that all you do in the game? :/
