Storm Strikers (iOS, March 8th 2012)

Post by Icarus »

The guys that developed Danmaku Unlimited have put up a trailer for their next game, Storm Strikers.

Slated for release on the App Store on March 8th. While I wasn't too impressed with Danmaku Unlimited, given it's slow-paced play and trivial-to-exploit scoring system, this looks a little more straightforward.

Can't remember but was danmaku unlimited 30fps, would be a shame if this new one ends up at the same frame rate.

And an update just came out for Danmaku Unlimited, now. Looks like graphics code was improved, so this might be a sign of what to expect.

this is up in the Aus app store (not sure if the app stores of the world update simultaneously?)

given it a couple of runs on normal, i like it, although the frame rate might start to grate after a while...

the scoring system is much better than the old bullet grazing of DU
