StarSmasher

Do you have what it takes?

Approval Queue, Waiting, & Updates

The initial release of StarSmasher has already been approved by Apple but is still in the “Pending Contract” stage. This means that we have to wait until Apple completes the contract between Apple and myself which, I’m told, is taking anywhere from days to a few weeks (I really hope it will be a few days!)

I have been listening to suggestions in the meantime, however, and working on a few improvements of my own. I’ve completed a new version of the game (which will probably be 1.0.1) which includes the following:

  • Faster gameplay (The ships speed has been increased to make the game slightly more difficult). 
  • More fluid controls.
  • Auto-fire mode. This is initiated by holding down a tap instead of tapping repeatedly. It will cause the ship to fire 4 times per second.
The new version will not be available initially because the “Pending Contracts” hole that StarSmasher is in doesn’t seem to allow me to go ahead and push the update in the meantime. As soon as StarSmasher goes live I’ll push the update which will probably take an additional 3-4 days to clear Apple. When it does, anyone who has already purchased the game will see a red button on their app store logo telling them the update is available for download.
