The images above are from Revolt, a dual-stick shooter for iPhone / iPod Touch what will appear in AppStore at a yet unannounced date, but one left an extremely strong impression on me, and I say this in a good way.

Personally, after seeing the trailer I was a little surprised, it seems to be an excellent game with very well made graphics, very intriguing action, movements taken from the games for PC/consoles, basically a game that I would have expected to see from a company like Gameloft or Ubisoft and not from a team of 3 developers that I have not heard of until now.

As I already said, on the graphics side Revolt it looks exceptional, you've seen the effects of explosions and weapons, an environment that is completely destructible, basically a 2010 game for iPhone / iPod Touch. On the gameplay side, it is very interesting to implement actions such as dodging when they shoot at you or hiding behind boxes/walls, but unlike other shooters of this kind, Revolt also emphasizes the available ammunition, which should be managed so that it reaches you throughout the levels.

Here is the list of features of the game:

  • 8 Story Levels and 20 Survival Arenas
  • 15 Weapons
  • 8 Unique Enemy Types
  • Weapon and Armor Upgrades
  • Advanced Gameplay
  • Destructible Environments
  • 3 Difficulty Modes
  • Kickass 3d Graphics
  • Killer Music and Sound Effects
  • High Score Leaderboard

I can only say that I am waiting Revolt with great interest and impatience, the trailer looks exceptional but the developers have promised that until the release they will introduce many more elements in the game so I for one can't wait!
