StarSmasher shooter announced for iPhone
High octane 3D shoot-'em-up modelled after classic StarFox game
StarFox on the SNES wasn't just a thrilling shooter, it was technically very innovative. So it's exciting to hear it's provided the inspiration for high-octane space-based 3D shooter StarSmasher for the iPhone.
Scheduled to appear in the App Store in the next few weeks, this first screenshot of designer John Bowers' new game looks explosive indeed.
The ship itself will be accelerometer controlled (as we'd hope), with the weapons fire activated from a quick jab at the screen.
If it gameplay is as slick as the visuals, we'll be in for an adrenaline-charged treat. Hit 'Track It!' to stay updated with more StarSmasher news as it flies in.
Spanner Spencer
Yes. Spanner's his real name, and he's already heard that joke you just thought of. Although Spanner's not very good, he's quite fast, and that seems to be enough to keep him in a regular supply of free games and away from the depressing world of real work.
