Hi everyone, my new game Alien Space Retro just hit the AppStore yesterday. Please feel free to check out the other thread about the game with more information and the latest stuff going on, here: http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=100766 Alien Space Retro Owens Rodriguez ***Previously Featured on iTunes Games "New & Noteworthy", "What's Hot", and "What We're Playing" sections!*** The best… TouchArcade Rating: Free Buy Now Watch Media Details***Previously Featured on iTunes Games "New & Noteworthy", "What's Hot", and "What We're Playing" sections!*** The best space shooter in the App Store is now Retro! Inspired by classic arcade games, Alien Space Retro combines the best of old and new, bringing dual-stick shooter gameplay to a new level. Your mission: Pilot your ship into the heart of enemy space and destroy anything that gets in your way. The game features: -amazing retro-inspired graphics -fast-paced gameplay -upgradeable ship systems and weapons -multiple weapon types to choose from -30 campaign levels -Survival mode -Normal and Hard difficulty levels -leaderboards and achievements through Game Center -silky smooth controls -listen to your iTunes music while you play -new gameplay modes and weapons available through in-app purchases The challenge: Unlike other shooters where the best the enemy AI can do is to run into you, Alien Space Retro offers a wide variety of enemies wielding the same weapons available to you, and then some. Blasters, lasers, tractor beams, missiles, photon torpedos… they'll throw everything they can at you. Are you up to the task? What are people saying? ---------------------------------------- "It’s not easy releasing a new game into a genre that is literally flooded with great games, but Alien Space managed to hold its own against the competition with excellent controls, interesting enemies, cool weapons, and a great upgrade system" -TouchArcade "Those charismatic new visuals may be the main selling point, but the gameplay is as fun, frantic, and satisfying as ever." -PocketGamer "Alien Space Retro’s strength comes not just from its aesthetically-pleasing vector graphics, but also its gameplay, which is at times deeper than other dual-stick shooters." -148Apps "Fantastic atmosphere, great sounds, and visual effects" - (5 stars) -iTunes reviewer "This game is top shelf, most stuff in the app store does not even compare. More games like this one need to be made" - (5 stars) -iTunes reviewer "If you like Dual Stick Space Shooters, this is one you should get" - (5 stars) -iTunes reviewer Information Seller:Owens Rodriguez Genre:Action, Arcade Release:Jul 15, 2011 Updated:May 06, 2013 Version:3.2 Size:15.5 MB TouchArcade Rating: User Rating: (13) Your Rating:unrated Compatibility:HD Universal Here are a few promo codes for the game: A3TMNFPAJ9LY 7FL9MRPWTPXP X9YTN9F9YFAE I might have some more to give out soon, so check back here throughout the weekend if you dont get one.

Thanks for sharing codes for your great-looking new game! sapphire_neo Well-Known Member Jan 20, 2011 3,934 0 0 #11 sapphire_neo, Jul 17, 2011 Gotta keep an eye on this thread, I liked Alien Space but I'm a little wary of all the IAP involved in this game. AlienSpace Well-Known Member May 28, 2010 416 0 16 Independent developer http://www.facebook.com/pages/Alien-Space/317119518856 #12 AlienSpace, Jul 17, 2011 Just to clarify, the IAP in the game are simply additional, optional, items you can buy. They are in no way required to play, or complete the game. The game is $0.99 and you get everything in the description you see in iTunes... full campaign with 30 levels, survival mode, leaderboards an achievements (both OF and GC) and a selection of 6 weapons that are all upgradable as you progress through the campaign (and also the survival mode... although in survival the upgrades happen in a different way). The IAPs are for things like new weapons that have different characteristics than the standard weapons, but they are not like uber-weapons that you need to do well in the leaderboards or anything. All weapons are balanced, if not then that's something I'll correct through updates if I find that that's the case. There is also an IAP for a new game mode called Lost in Space. The IAP system is also in place so I can add even more stuff in the future, like new additional game modes and maybe more new weapons. But, you do get the full game when you buy it, nothing extra is required to play or finish the game. I hope this helps. But, feel free to post if you guys have questions, I'm checking these boards regularly, and in fact I'm working on an update for the game right now to address a couple of issues brought up here on the TA threads.

Leslie Well-Known Member Jun 5, 2011 297 0 0 Part time editor/reviewer of iOS NYC #14 Leslie, Jul 17, 2011 Fantastic atmosphere, great sounds and visual effects. Simple graphics but all astonishing in combination. It plays and handles very well and with very smooth gameplay. Simple to pick up and hard to put down. Would like to see a few more free weapons and maybe different enemies, but other than that it is a solid game and well worth. Highly recommended.
