The complete version of this Comic/Game Hybrid allows you to enjoy a full 42 page comic by renowned comic book artist Duke Mighten and then jump right into the action when the story demands it, with its game sections directed by game industry legend David Perry. It is a comic book you can play! The story revolves around the SXPD, an elite police force consisting of all female officers who enforce the law in the privately owned 52nd state of America; 'New Royale'; a hyper violent and bizarre scifi world. Chase the gangs and violent criminals of New Royale, in a high speed bike pursuit across the dangerous environments of the dark State. Get lured into the sewers, wastelands and industrial zones of the city. And find out if the Rookie can save New Royale from the terrorists threatening it. 'The Rookie' is the first instalment of many episodes and features 6 chapters of comic book storytelling, and high adrenalin racing game action. What the press says: Theguardian.com: “One of the most inventive iOS games of 2014 so far.” Killscreen.com : “just as the action kicks in, you see a panel depicting a first-person view. Swipe, and you dive into the comic book world, without compromise to visual fidelity—there's a beautiful fluidity to be seen as the expressive art style transitions into motion. “ Toucharcade.com: “Dark and violent in nature, SXPD is reminiscent of comic series such as Tank Girl or Heavy Metal, perhaps, and is ideal for anyone who wishes to dive into the world of intense high speed chases, rapid gunfire and earth-shattering explosions.” Pocketgamer.com: “SXPD crackles with energy. It's an assault on the eyes in the best possible way.” 148appps.com: “SXPD is ideal for any comic book fan who wishes they could dive into the pages of a high-speed chase.” SXPD features: - A full 42 page comic book by Artist Duke Mighten (Judge Dredd, Afro Samurai, Batman) - 6 chapters of super fast bike combat directed by David Perry (MDK, Earthworm Jim) - 6 Additional arcade playmodes - 3D Deathchase tribute challenge, the ZX Spectrum classic which inspired SXPD - Full GameCenter support, with challenges and achievements Information Seller:Little Chicken Game Company B.V.

Hopefully it's not because of poor sales. But I'm afraid that's most likely the case... Muppetpuppet Well-Known Member Sep 5, 2013 241 1 18 Applied Game Developer Amsterdam http://www.facebook.com/oberonscourt #5 Muppetpuppet, Jun 3, 2014 Hi guys, one of the SXPD devs here. I cannot comment on the sales, but this 24 hour free day, is mostly to create buzz in anticipation for the iphone/universal launch which is coming up. And yes the appstore is a very competitive place at the moment, I expect this to happen more often, more free sale days earlier. Its one of the few promotional events that still have the power to improve the visibility of the app to a large audience. I would say get on ipad now, so you also get the iphone version for free when its updated. Enjoy the game and hopefully stay tuned for future additions. scrotally Well-Known Member Apr 21, 2013 305 0 0 #6 scrotally, Jun 4, 2014 Thank you to you and the other devs MuppetPuppet!

Love it! jerseydvd Well-Known Member Nov 25, 2009 47 0 0 #9 jerseydvd, Jun 4, 2014 Love the look and the concept of this game, but it's too twitchy for me. Maybe I'm just too old. I'll try again with reading glasses yearoftherat Well-Known Member Jan 16, 2013 89 0 6 #10 yearoftherat, Jun 5, 2014 Just missed it as it's no longer free. Muppetpuppet Well-Known Member Sep 5, 2013 241 1 18 Applied Game Developer Amsterdam http://www.facebook.com/oberonscourt #11 Muppetpuppet, Jun 5, 2014 Sorry we;ll give a bit more heads up next time we do a free day.. CookingPie Well-Known Member Mar 25, 2014 177 0 16 #12 CookingPie, Jun 5, 2014 I played 3d deathchase on my 48k zx spectrum for many an hour. It was a great game but was very repetitive. Since there was nothing like it at the time that was not a reason not to keep at it. Sooner or later though, you would always crash into a tree and your opponents never got any closer. It was the closest thing to experiencing that scene from return of the Jedi. I think that was 3d deathchases inspiration. This game has more of a judge dredd type feel. I struggled to get through the tutorial... Perhaps it will be slightly easier to control on an iPhone? Thanks for making it free as it gave me a chance to try it.
