What about the robot armed with onboard replicator?This is a three-dimensional story of the scout drone adventures. Yeah, the adventures are painted in sci-fi colors and filled by energy beams, plasma bolts and overheated weapons. Our cybernetic hero will have to face a horde of extremely evil aliens. Of course, if all creatures in the Universe were kind and friendly - anything similar wouldn't happen. :)iDaTank is the first and, I hope, not last indie release 'wink' 'wink' A bit of vital information:- More than twenty five levels (exactly twenty six).- More than twenty various types of alien fauna.- More than fifty perks and modifications. (exactly fifty one).- Up to five upgradable weapons.- This game works only in landscape mode.- This game has three optional controller types.Please, check the options and choose controller you like.PRESS QUOTES"Despite the ambiguous name, iDaTank is a surprisingly in-depth adventure game with a thin, but adequate layer of RPG elements added on top to keep you coming back for more. Like the best rogue-likes, it works like crack in that you'll manage to inch further and further into space through each playthrough before suddenly realizing it's three in the morning." - Thorin Klosowski, Touch Arcade (4/5)"This game is what AppaSnap was created for. This is a really quirky little game that is not mainstream, but appears to have enough depth to keep you coming back. It is slightly difficult to understand precisely what's going on at the beginning and the tutorial could be much easier to use, but stick with it and you'll find a brilliant little game in here. We like this!" - Appa Snap (9/10)"iDaTank pulls together some great mechanics and blends them in an interesting way. The levels and enemies keep things interesting and the leveling up and upgradable weapons will keep players engaged. The game is much deeper than it seems at first glance and players will be pleasantly surprised." - Jason Wadsworth, 148 Apps (3.5/5.0) Information Seller: Genre:Action, Adventure, Arcade Release:May 22, 2011 Updated:Nov 30, -0001 Version: Size:0.0 TouchArcade Rating: User Rating: (3) Your Rating:unrated Compatibility:HD Universal syntheticvoid Well-Known Member Jun 20, 2010 14,504 124 63 Musician & factory worker. a[V-O-I-D] http://apparentsymmetry.bandcamp.com #2 syntheticvoid, Sep 1, 2011 no, f;n way... this... is my game of 2011... without a doubt... tops2 Well-Known Member Jan 21, 2011 2,083 56 48 #3 tops2, Sep 1, 2011 Grab while you can.

I'd post a link to my review which could tell you why... but it'd be considered spam - but in short... it's an amazing game that grows with you. I've spent, probably, over 80 hours playing it already... and I have no intensions of ever taking it off my device. when I think back on the year in gaming... this is the title that stands out. Not Deathsmiles, not Bumpy Road, really, nothing else stands out like iDaTank. ninjackid Well-Known Member May 27, 2010 9,380 2 38 #9 ninjackid, Sep 1, 2011 YES! Yes yes yes yes!!!!!!! This is an awesome day! Aghhh!! Joshnsuch Well-Known Member Sep 29, 2009 840 0 0 Louisville #10 Joshnsuch, Sep 1, 2011 Wow. I didn't expect this to go free. Either way, I bought it in the past for a buck and I've gotten way more out of that dollar than many other dollar games. Apparently syntheticvoid has gotten MUCH MUCH MORE out of it, hah. backtothis im in ur base killin ur d00dz Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze Jul 13, 2009 13,249 1 0 college student (junior) Houston/Austin, TX https://twitter.com/back2this #11 backtothis, Sep 1, 2011 First free download in quite a while. Thanks for the freebie. Sounds like it'll be a pretty good game from the impressions I've seen around here. Ghouls'R'us Well-Known Member Jun 9, 2011 555 0 16 #12 Ghouls'R'us, Sep 1, 2011 This is quite a cool freebie. Not an easy game to get into, though. Needs patience to gather its rewards. Definitely slower than other twin-stick shooters. Miles away from Robotron gameplay-wise. tops2 Well-Known Member Jan 21, 2011 2,083 56 48 #13 tops2, Sep 1, 2011 Haha.. Yeah, there's a few spikes in the difficulty for me.. But when I beat the game, it was really really satisfying! Keep in mind the perks you pick..they *can* make or break your game.

What sort of crazy Korean device are you playing that on? Anyway, just reiterating what everyone else has been saying; you'd be silly to not pick this up while it is free. Don't be put off if you think it feels slow at the beginning, it picks up in pace and difficulty fairly quickly and is definitely worth your time. Also hello Paul, long time no hear. How have you been? syntheticvoid Well-Known Member Jun 20, 2010 14,504 124 63 Musician & factory worker. a[V-O-I-D] http://apparentsymmetry.bandcamp.com #19 syntheticvoid, Sep 1, 2011 It is a little slow in the beginning, but that's because there's speed and agility upgrades. Once you get about halfway through the game, it gets a LOT more hectic. Also, there's a dual-stick type setup for controls in the options menu that will probably feel more comfortable for ya... Paul Siberdt Well-Known Member May 20, 2011 71 0 0 indie game developer Moscow, Russia http://fictionware.com/ #20 Paul Siberdt, Sep 2, 2011 Oopsie, Spleen... my fault with image scaling... Thanx. I'm totally busy and have not time enough for indie dev. iDaTank for Android have to be released very soon, but this is in hands of Korean publisher. (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
