Independent game publisher and developer , indiePub Entertainment, Inc. has released Capsized+ for iPad, available now via iTunes for $2.99.
In the sci-fi action platform shooter Capsized+ you play as an intrepid space traveler whose ship has crash landed on a mysterious alien planet. You must navigate through beautiful but perilous environments while fighting bloodthirsty creatures to save your crewmates and escape with your lives.
Use a grappling hook, jet pack, space-age weapons and powerups to fight through non-linear levels.
indiePub has gone through great pains to recreate – not simply port – the experience from the original while optimizing the controls for touschreens.
Capsized+ includes:
Particle Packed Weapons: Sure, the grappling hook is pretty dern useful but you create awesomely explosive destruction with weapons including the Plas-Mortar, Ion Repeater, Nano-Caster and the Quasar Array (and make friggin’ black holes!).
Campaign Mode: Test your mettle against nasty baddies in thirteen levels with lush and varied terrains.
Three Arcade Modes: Fight endless waves of enemies in Survival Mode, grab oxygen to survive Last Gasp Challenges or test your survival skills in the weapons-free Armless Mode.
GameCenter Achievements: Prove your intergalactic survival skills by earning all twelve achievements.
Lush Environments: Enjoy strange and amazing landscapes illustrated in a unique, hand-drawn style.
Intense Gameplay: Test your constitution with more than twenty hours of heart-throbbing, thumb-busting action.
