    This looks awesome, but will we ever see a universal or iPad only shmup from you?

    Arcade EX is a more intense version of the arcade run with bullets flying at a much faster speed. Arcade EX on extreme is...quite extreme. The game will be priced at 1.99USD but to help with getting more exposure for the game there'll be a launch sale of the game at 0.99, probably for the first 3 days to a week? not quite set on that one yet.

    As for the universal build, it's something that i'd want to do but simply couldn't fit it into the timetable. The in-house engine is quite lacking at this moment when it comes to menu editing and doing a whole set of ipad menus and possibly new artwork will require a lot of time. For what it's worth, on an ipad2 the game will run with standard def menus and HD-graphics in game, instead of the other way around for a certain other game ;)

    Instant buy no matter what. On an iPad the graphics are universal but the menus aren't?:confused: Guess its the reverse of bug princess or espgaluda 2.

    I hope what you're talking about is like what Ravenmark was doing before the universal update. The game was running in retina res on iPad 2.

    the video looks just fantastic, i dont know how it plays but if you guys improved control scheme of danmaku than this game should be on the cave level. if apple approves it fast are you going to wait for the launch date anyway or release it earlier?

    Really looking forward to this title. Danmaku Unlimited rocks and Storm Strikers looks to rule.

    Yes it runs at retina resolution on the ipad 2.

    As for the release date I'd like to keep it at least around that week in March, as a contingency in case any game-breaking bug crops up, but chances are the game won't be approved until that week anyway.

    In the meantime I'd like to do an informal poll to see what type of new fighters would you guys like to have in game? I'll be working on adding new planes periodically post-launch so I'm open to suggestions!

    the current roster includes:
    Eurofighter Typhoon
    F-35
    F-22
    Mig-21
    2 fighters based on ones from Danmaku
    fighter based on the F/A-37 Strega from Philosoma (one of my favorite shmup)

    already planned to make:
    F-117
    Avro CF-105 Arrow
    Chengdu J-20

    note that they will only be based on those planes, I don't want to get into any possible copyright issues :)

    MIG!

    F-22 and F-35 don't quite look good with shooters.

    Why would you ask something about a device not even out yet...?

    :( I really hope the game does well and you consider a universal version. I absolutely adored Danmaku Unlimited, and this looks fantastic, but I can't stand using 2X mode.

    The ipad3 release is imminent. It was mentioned that the game runs @ retina resolution on ipad2, but ipad2 doesn't have retina resolution. Ipad3 probably will.
