Squarez is back... on iPhone (ClusterStorm)

[Sousanator]

I just found this on the app store, and think it deserves a special mention here since I know a few of you were big fans of Squarez from the PSP days.

Its new name is ClusterStorm and there's a free and a $1 version, with all the same modes as the PSP version (Arcade, Survival, Bomber, and Classic) plus a new Challenge mode. The game is played by tilt control which takes a little getting used to, but so did the analog on the PSP version.

It's definitely worth checking out, since in my opinion it was one of the best PSP homebrews, and now it's available on iOS devices for a much greater audience to enjoy.

Very cool to see him (Socals) still working on what he does best. Love how he improved on the original flash game (forgot what it was entitled) and I too would love to see an Android port

Hell yeah, gonna convince all my iPhone toting friends to grab this so I can play it some more.

Thanks for helping spread the word! Hey FrozenIpaq, how have you been! (Using my gamertag now instead of socals).

I haven't programmed for Android yet, so not sure about that but I have a few friends with Androids who want it so...

This new version 1.2 of ClusterStorm adds the game type Arcade Pills to the challenges which is the original, pill based scoring for Arcade vs the new multiplier based scoring.

Also, v1.3 will be coming out soon which adds Game Center for supported devices!

BTW Frozen, I also have a working port of Squarez Puzzle working on my iPad right now! Had to completely re-write it since I lost the PSP source code. Wow it brings back memories! Still not sure what to do with this creation. I'm still working on adding some new gameplay ideas until I'm happy with it finally after all these years!

Thanks for the promo codes. Squarez was the most addictive of all the homebrew games on the PSP; simple and fun. I'll certainly help spread the word for you.

 

[Moose]

Awesome, I'll certainly be buying this. =D Gosh, it must have been about two years since I played Squarez on the PSP. Definitely one of my favoured homebrew creations.

 

[Spiros]

I missed this one somehow, but from what I hear it sounds good, will be buying this as well.

Nice surprise to see you pop up again My old iPod Touch broke so I won't be able to test it out but I'll definitely see if I can get my brother to get it on his, he too was a huge fan of the PSP version. Good luck with introducing new gameplay elements to the puzzle game (as it stood it was a nice little game but I agree that it could use some spicing up).

Thanks for the codes! Picking it up and spreading the word definitely!
