The events that are about to unfold will forevermore alter the future of mankind…

cannot play it. somehow I get a crash all the time, as soon as I try to start the game. I am in the menu, then hit new game and then black screen - CRASH -
any1 else expierincing this?!

[Devilishly Good]

Just gave this a try and I really like it! Cool graphics and a nice soundtrack couple with some nicely intense schmup action.

Definitely look forward to the full version coming out.

I played on an iPhone 3G and when there was a lot going on there would occasionally be a brief pause, usually right before a big boom or a larger saucer exploding, but not enough to disrupt gameplay.

The cracks on the screen for your health is neat visually, but I do think it would be good to give players the option of a more traditional health bar. I also wish the Air Squadron powerup would last a bit longer...feels very brief right now.
