Description
Enter the gloomy world of DEO. Put your tapping skills to the test as you travel the serenity of space to create life and revive hope as you jump through 96 challenging levels requiring courage, skill and precision. Stylistically distinct, DEO features hours of immersive gameplay, challenging physics-based jumping, and a visually stunning art style.
Your goal is to jump to each hill of a rotating level to capture it. Complete each level successfully to build a planet on the main menu. The less you die in each level the more plants and life your planet will produce. From this fundamental balance, DEO leads the player through ambient backgrounds, deep artistic scapes and breathtaking visuals with a look that seems to combine dark, distressed and organic art.

Awsome
A great game with an interesting play style and fantastic art work. I only made it through the first 4 chunks of the world so far. It would be five stars but the learning curve jumps way to quick to ease you into the harder puzzles.
Brilliant art direction and addictive gameplay
What strikes me as unique at first with DEO, is the art direction, and since I appreciate beautiful visuals and creativity, I bought without thinking much about the gameplay. Well, little did I know, DEO offers a unique gameplay mechanism and its addictive as well.
The art in DEO is visually appealing, as it uses heavy brush strokes that is far from your typical clean look of the other iOS games. Reminds me a bit of Street Fighter IV's Sumi-e ink influence. There is a definite dark theme in DEO but coupled with the calming background music, it is quite a relaxing experience for me. Also, there are no buttons whatsoever, except for a small help button, which makes it easier to appreciate the artwork.
So, what about the unique gameplay mechanism I mentioned? DEO just uses taps. You have to maneuver the character by jumping on green platforms and ending on a red platform. You tap to control the power of your jump, and once you're satisfied you release your finger. Sounds simple, but its quite challenging, as the difficulty increases exponentially. Did I say the gameplay is addictive?
DEO is a pleasant experience for me, great to relax your mind with the aural and visual experience it offers. Recommended.
Unique Gameplay , Awesomeness of iOS gaming unleashed !
This is what a iOS game should looks like , fluid cinematic graphic and well polished to perfection. The control and layout are created to match out gamer ease. I picked this up and learned in few minutes but it's challenging to make a perfect level!
This game should be climbing the chart very soon and it's such beautifully made game I must say. Very well worth the money I spend on this game, or I should say my best purchase so far in this few months. Totally recommended to any genre gamers and this is a must have if you have an iPod or iPhone.
