I wrote, designed, and developed the game on my own, and released it last year on the iOS Appstore, where it was featured as both one of the “New Games We Love” and a “Game Of The Day” by Apple.
The game received a perfect score in its review on TouchArcade, the most popular mobile gaming website in the US, and earned a Silver Award from Pocket Gamer, the most viewed mobile gaming site in the UK! The website 148 Apps even called it one of the “The Best Games For The iPhone”.
