[Released] Space Heads for Windows Phone

Hi all

Unity Studios and Nisl Games launched Space Heads for Windows Phone during the Holidays!

The game is described as a fun packed Manga-inspired spaceship runner. It gives the player more dimension of moving up and down and side-flipping, instead of just right, left, center. It’s beautifully done, addictive and tells a story about four young friends sharing a passion for racing spaceships. You choose a pilot and complete missions by flying through tunnels filled with gems, collectables and dangerous obstacles. The game invites the player to become a part of the team, and try beating the high scores.

The game was first made for iOS (not released), but was portet for Windows Phone. Easy with Unity :slight_smile:

Try it and let us know what you guys think, it’s avaliable for free on Windows Phone Store : http://bit.ly/1l8HIEt

We wish you all a Happy New Year!

why not release on iOS if you have done it because it is a much bigger market than windows phone.

Nice, what’s your perspective on developing for mobile devices? I’ll put that in context. Do you find its easier to restrict movement and have a defined track or path for PCs to follow? Would seem to lend a certain logic to the game where an NPC would also have less variables and more constants to obey.

Simply because Windows Phone has more market potential than iOS, I would assume.

We have predefined 3x3 grid points which we interpolate between so we have a very simple method of controlling our ships. I guess that would work well for NPCs as well, but we don’t have any plans for NPCs as of yet :slight_smile:

@TheRaider: The reason we came out on windows phone first was that we could see a market potential for a new runner at the time, but new runners have been released since that. An iOS version is definitely on the list.
