Grab your headphones - REDUX is all about the beats.
If you've played the original Radio Flare, you'll realise why it's sequel, REDUX, has generated so much hype leading up to today's release. The game combined everything that made REZ and R-Type so successful, bringing vibrant, rhythm based shooting to the iPhone's touch screen.
With REDUX, developer Studio Radiolaris have brought back the award winning formula, complete with 33 new levels, achievements, leaderboards and Twitter integration. For those who haven't played the original, the game plays out much like other side-scrolling shooters (think R-Type), but with a much heavier musical influence. The licensed techno beats are more than just a soundtrack; they influence the shooting itself, with enemies pulsing to the beat as they jet around the screen in time to the music.
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.
