App of the Week: Space Missile Command


iPad, iPhone, Mobile App of the Week

Space Command iconWhile our last space-themed App of Week was the lovably quirky Aliens Abducted game, this week’s selection is an action-packed adventure for shooter game fans. Space Missile Command was recently featured in the US App Store’s “What’s Hot” category and is quickly rolling in glowing reviews.

Powerful weaponsA brilliant mash-up of the classic Asteroids and Missile Command games, Space Missile Command challenges you to stop an asteroid invasion from destroying sacred planets.To blast the waves of asteroids and protect planets, you navigate a joystick around the screen and fire away. As you earn scores of points and power-ups, you’ll climb the officer ranks from a 2nd lieutenant to a four-star general. Beyond the rock-solid gameplay, the classical soundtrack and stunning special effects enhance the game to create an addictive experience.

Space Missile Command is offered in a free light version, as well as $.99 download from the App Store, for advanced gameplay and additional levels.

    It will not be fair If I did not mention Ricardo Jorge, the super designer behind Space missile Command amazing game ICON and the very slick game UI (buttons, joystick, gun-cross and so on)

    Trust me, with my graphical design abilities (stick figures..) Space Command would NOT as polished! So a BIG (no HUGE) thanks to Ricardo! (which by the way is also a app developer in addition to his amazing graphic design abilities:)
