Alpha Zero - iOS - Out now

Post by coderboy »

The game a few friends and I have been working on is finally out!
Download, have fun and please give us feedback so we can improve it, we plan on adding updates with more content so chances are your feedback will get in. :)

NO this is not a Cave shmup, it is the work and effort of a small team that grew up loving shmups, we hope you like it too.

Really a fun Shmup - reminds me a bit of Shatter (graphics) meets Galaga.

End of the world special! $0.99 for a limited time!!

New version adds four new control schemes, among them dual joysticks.

Gameplay depends on real money... it's very bad for shmup. It is total disballance!

The game has been balanced to not require a decent or patient player to pay another cent. I would venture a guess and say that no one on this forum would ever need to buy anything to finish it.

I personally hate it when a game requires you to buy stuff.

I haven't spent any money and have upgraded my main gun to level 7 - I think most people should be able to make it through with a challenge, not a beat down.
