  1. Anyone remember Unknown Orbit?

    I reviewed thousands of iOS games on TouchArcade way back when, and one of my favorites of all time was Exbleative's Unknown Orbit, which was basically Tiny Wings .. in 3D .. in space. It was awesome.

    Last night the Steam store put a game called Exo One in front of me. In the preview, it looked something like Tiny Wings .. in 3D .. in space. It's 70% off in the Steam store for a few days (currently $5), so I gave it a go.

    "A strange signal... an alien craft... an interplanetary, gravity-defying journey through space and time."

    Long story short, it's from Exbleative and appears to be a massive evolution of Unknown Orbit (for PC and Xbox), set on strange, eerie worlds and with a mysterious storyline to unravel.

    Having been such a fan of the earlier iOS title, I am thrilled to have found this and am having a great time exploring this universe.

    "Tiny Wings, Journey and Kubrick collide in this sci-fi delight," says EDGE.

  6. @flargh Oh, how I miss Dropship back in the iOS early days. (And oh, how my thumbs have aged over 16 years...)

  7. iOS has shown itself to be such a terrible game platform as far as being able to purchase a game and enjoy it for years. Various barriers due to the changing OS (the first mass extinction was no 32-bit apps, years back (which was unnecessary), but it wasn't the last) have left basically no title from the early days of the AppStore still viable.

    I've cursed Apple for this many times before, but this morning I am lamenting the absence of the superb Vectrex Regeneration -- a Vectrex emulator targeting the iPad. What a great experience that was.

  12. RIP #TouchArcade, it's such a shame there seems to be no valid business model for traditional websites anymore ☹️ toucharcade.com/2024/09/16/tou

  13. I'm very grateful for so many years of solid mobile gaming jouranlism! My games were positively reviewed on TouchArcade and I remember my joy for the first time with Commander Pixman 13 years (!) ago!

    Farewell!

  15. Back in 2011, I visited the ThinkGeek Megaplex HQ in Fairfax Virginia to see the iCade iPad arcade enclosure which started out as one of those April Fools fictitious products.
