Description
TOUCHARCADE: "The whole package creates an experience unlike anything on the App Store, and the game feels like playing an episode of a wonderfully cheesy low-budget 80's Sci-Fi show, especially whenever the Trepidoids speak."
148APPS: "Galactic Gunner truly shines in the graphics and sounds department. Spectacularly cinematic levels are truly immersive, and one short cut scene at the end of the last level was so intense that I found myself on the edge of my seat."
SLIDETOPLAY: "Galactic Gunner is a solid buy. It's a tightly focused and memorable shooter with a lot of clever humor."
APPYOURMAC: "If you love space battles, get it. If you liked Starfox or classic arcade shooters, get it. If you just want pick up and play explosions, get it. Galactic Gunner, by Ezone, packs a pretty significant amount of fun into a tiny package."
CNET: "With cinematic space scenes, a solid and often funny storyline, and challenging gameplay, this game lives up to the hype and is definitely one to grab."
★★ DESCRIPTION ★★
Listen up Cadet! This is your Captain speaking. You are the Gunner - leave the flying to me!
Galactic Gunner is a new space shooter from Ezone.com - developed by the Edis brothers Jamie and Simon from Australia. They decided to make the space game they’ve always wanted to play: no difficult flying controls, no gettting lost in space, no hits from behind, no complex instructions to wade through — just eye-popping 3D action from the get go!
In Galactic Gunner you shoot down targets by touching the screen. Your pilot is a seasoned veteran who handles the steering (and audio commentary) so you can concentrate on the fun part: destroying any targets that cross your path!
Galactic Gunner has something for all ages and skill levels, with intuitive but challenging game-play. Your skill and accuracy (not just trigger/tap-happy luck) will earn you one of 15 different medals — do you have what it takes to earn the 'SuperNova Supreme'?
And if you are looking for a great way to show off your iPhone, then look no further! The dynamic lighting, real-time 3D graphics and effects of Galactic Gunner will amaze you and blow your friends away!

A Game of GALACTIC proportions
How else can you describe Galactic Gunner other than with Bonza, Rippa, and Struth!!!!!
Galactic Gunner has it all - Music, Sounds, Gameplay, Graphics, and of course awesome commentary by the Galactic Captain, Wingman A & B, and the insidious Trepidoids!
You start out by practicing on some drones, and then you blast some asteroids, and then you finally get to put some Trepidation into the Trepidoids!
The Galactic Captain, with his trusty Wingmen, flies his ship straight into on coming Trepidoids. And as the gunner, its your job to blast the Trepidoids, and a few other objects into space dust!
The Galactic Captain keeps you well informed before, during, and after each mission you undertake, as well as in the level select menu, in the medals menu, and everywhere else in the game.
Wingman B is a good shot and is helpful in giving aid in your missions.
Wingman A, not so much, he is always getting in your way and can hardly hit the broad side of a barn!
After each mission, you are given a summary of how many targets you destroyed and how accurate you were. Accuracy is definitely what counts in gaining the points that you need to proceed to the next mission. But if you cant comlplete a mission, the Galactic Captain comes on and tells you that he has had enough and cant take it anymore, and then you can skip to the next level if you want to.
After you complete the last level with the required points, you then are taken to the bonus survival wormhole level where accuracy doesnt matter. Here you need to blast every enemy that you can before you run into one of them and blow up your ship.
Galactic Gunner is the best touch shooter around!, but it is a little short so some new levels would make this game even better!
