Chillingo’s upcoming dual-stick shooter just got the hands on treatment from Daniel of @NoDPad.
Developed by GameLab, the visually vibrant title which is described as “a mix between Minigore and Guerrilla Bob” and “different gaming experience” joins the publishers already established arsenal of other iPhone and iPad titles, including the likes of Minigore, The Quest, The Hero, Ravensword and Guerrilla Bob.
Daniel had this to say:
The main selling point of the game seems to be the graphics, which are bright and very appealing to the eye. The developers did a great job with the visual part of the game, and the cartoony artwork definitely works with the overall theme.
Other gameplay elements include increasing your pirate’s stats with the coins that you earn, including the rate of fire, movement, luck, and the power of the demon. The demon is a creature which you can turn into once you gather enough power, similar to Minigore’s little “clover rage”.
The build I received doesn’t seem to have a survival mode, although it may be something that appears after you’ve finished the game.
Overall, Pirate’s Treasure is a good-looking dual-stick shooter that I’m looking forward to playing once it hits the App Store. It looks good, sounds decent, and plays like you would expect. It mixes both Minigore and Guerrilla Bob into a different game experience, and while it didn’t strike me as exceptional, it is something that should be on any iPhone gamer’s radar.
According to the site the app has now been submitted to Apple for review, and should be showing up on the store shortly!
