Description
ON SALE FOR THANKSGIVING!!! Redefining both the shoot-‘em-up and the rhythm action genre, Radio Flare REDUX is a side-scrolling, multi-touch shoot-‘em-up thrill-ride, featuring retina-popping visuals and tub-thumping club anthems.
ABOUT
Radio Flare REDUX is a highly stylized side-scrolling shoot-’em-up that makes exceptional use of your iPod touch or iPhone’s multi-touch capabilities, not to mention its headphone socket.
Pilot your ship to the beat of the universe and blast a galaxy of invaders out of the sky. Weave through an intense sensory onslaught as you dispatch swarm after swarm of enemies, tapping the touchscreen, and your toes, as you go.
Radio Flare REDUX is the hotly anticipated successor to the hit debut from studio radiolaris, Radio Flare, which was a finalist in the 2009 IGF Mobile and IndieCade competitions.
GAMEPLAY
Control your ship with one hand, while targeting multiple enemies with the other to unleash a sonic splash of destructive power. Battle through over 30 frenzied levels packed with power-ups, multipliers, combos, dozens of different enemies and distinct club-style visuals.
Every aspect of Radio Flare REDUX is hardwired to the pulse pounding soundtrack of licensed techno, club and house music from an A-list roster of internationally renowned DJs and dance artists. The playlist including Kevin Gorman, Revolution Void, Motor, Binaerpilot and DJ Glow (from the original Radio Flare game), and techno labels International Deejay, Gigolo Records, Mikrowave.co.uk, Buddemusic, Underline and more.
FEATURES
• Musical gameplay experience: Play to the beat as your ship moves and shoots in rhythm. Target enemies and see them pulsate and explode to the beat of each song.
• Levels: 33 diverse planet levels based on licensed techno, club and house tracks by internationally renowned DJs.
• Visuals: Club-style visuals and fast-paced fights combine to create a synesthetic cosmic adventure for your senses.
• Controls: Play with either multi-touch or virtual joystick options to pilot your ship as it pulsates through space, dodging opponents and intensifying the music.
• Unlockable rewards: Gain stars to unlock new planets and take on missions that challenge your rhythmic combat. Unlock a Musical Toy sequencer that lets you arrange sound effects in rhythm and a Visualizer mode so you can cruise through a level without enemies to enjoy the stimulating graphics and music.
• Crystal online leaderboards and mission-based achievements: Explore space with friends and compare your scores and results with Crystal’s dynamic social gaming network.
• Tweet your screenshots: Use the screen capture feature to upload your gameplay screenshots and brag about your achievements on Twitter.

Radio Flare REDUX
Hiya. Just a quick review. First off. This is a great game. A real improvement over the original. My only gripe is that sound effects are really flat and not exciting.Then there's the control option of the drag. It's good to have the choice but when used, my god it's slow. The last thing is, please can you add the option to flip the screen? If the headphones are plugged in then it can be a little cumbersome. Other then that, it is a great game. (I guess I wasn't that quick after all!)
Already done a review that's vanished!
Won't do another long, potentially wasted review, but suffice to say it looks & sounds good but is actually very dull to play; it's boringly easy, then impossibly hard and too clumsy to control because your fingers are forced to obscure the screen if anything attacks from behind. Needs gameplay update asap.
Very good
Very entertaining app
