Support all 4 or Both of each iPad orientations or no App Store for you!

It can be a little jarring getting rejected from the App Store after all your hard work and long hours of work. It turns out I misread the Human Interface guidelines, thanks to MattRix. You must support both variations of either orientation or all four.

Anyway, I burned another night coding and making new graphics and SpaceRanger HD is back up for review. I get the feeling this is going to be a long process, especially if they reject me one reason at a time. It takes like three weeks to get into review with each new submission of a binary.

SpaceRangerHD for iPad & iPhone

Space Ranger for iPad & iPhone is a fun and simple space invaders type game designed for younger audiences. A request by my six year old son for something simple to use yet challenging to play.

Alien invaders to defeat, Comets to avoid, Huge explosions, Nukes, Crystals & Coins to collect, many levels, high score tracking etc.
All the things that get kids excited. Great graphics, sound effects and some music composed by me.

Enemies include:
- Blue Bad Guys, 1 hit, 1 point.
- Red Bad Guys, 5 hits “shield depletion”, 2 points.
- Green Bad Guys, 3 hits, 50 points.
- MotherShip, 4 Pulse cannons to beat then 20 hits to beat level, 140 points.
- Arrays of photon torpedoes.
- Power up pulse canons.
- Heat seeking missiles.
- Deadly comets passing by.

Space Ranger:
- 100 lives/health.
- Ten health points for every level completed.
- Shields that take ten hits or one pulse cannon hit. “endless supply of shields”
- Single lasers, Dual lasers after 1000 points and yes, triple lasers after 2000 points.
- 5 Nukes to get you out of a jam.

Objects include:
- Green crystals, 10 coins.
- Red crystals, 20 coins.
- Shield power ups.

Just move your finger around the screen and stay alive.
Have fun.
