StarSmasher adds new ‘Energy Monger’ play mode in latest update
The one and only flight sim for the iPhone, StarSmasher, developed by John Bowers of EspressoSoft has just been updated. The new playmode ‘Energy Monger’ as described by Bowers below.
“As promised, a new gameplay mode called “Energy Monger” that has 30 levels and 2 bonus levels. The goal of the normal levels is to collect blue energy units littered throughout the course. If you miss four in a level you will have to replay that level and it will take one life. There are also gold energy units in each stage. If you collect 8 in a stage you will be given access to a bonus level at the end of the stage (its randomly chosen which one you get). Both of the bonus stages are extremely hard (I’ve only beaten them a few times, partly because you don’t get to practice with them) but if you manage to beat one you will receive updwards of 2500 points.”
StarSmasher’s game engine has been completely rewritten, greatly enhancing performance, allowing for higher frame rates. Some nice background music as been added as well as more sound effects.
What future StarSmasher updates may add:
- Online score boards
- New bonus levels (maybe a mini-boss level, for example)
- Multi-player face-off mode
StarSmasher 1.1 update is now available in the App Store.
