iPhone Game with Complex Graphics

[millisecond]

My friend and I whipped up a DTD/geometry wars-ish game to play around with the canvas tag in a limited-space Safari and wanted to get it out there to see if someone could use it on their iPhone. We're stuck at work today and probably won't get one from the first shipment

Here's the URL: http://lowtidegames.com/

Will also work in Safari 3 - Mac/Win if you want to check it out.

We're adding sound and a bunch of other stuff soon. Let us know your feedback and suggestions for improvements on the iPhone.

Thanks!

Wow, that was actually very fun once I got the hang of it! It would be nice if it had some sort of score running of how many creeps escaped and how many can escape before you loose. It's always a surprise when I lose. It might be there already, but in my 15 minutes of playing it I didn't see it.

Fun to play - but needs to be a bit more challenging.

Re: challenge

Definitely agree, wanted to get this out there for people to look at on the iPhone early and so it's a little under-developed and tuned more for testing than challenge.

That said, do you have any particular ideas for making it more difficult? We're toying with the gold/firepower purchasing equations, but also toss around some crazy game mechanic ideas. Involved question I know, but just thought you might have been thinking something specific.

Thanks!
