Steambirds: Survival Now Available for Free on All iOS Devices
Halfbrick, the Australian development studio behind the smash hit titles Fruit Ninja and Jetpack Joyride, along with Spry Fox, creators of the addictive iOS and Adobe Flash game Steambirds, today announced that the newest game in the Steambirds series — Steambirds: Survival — is now available for download on mobile iOS platforms from the App Store.
Set in a steampunk-styled war-torn Europe, Steambirds: Survival is a turn-based aerial combat game in which players take on the role of an elite Allied pilot tasked with clearing the skies of the endless waves of Axis enemies. The noble mission is to defend the skies and enable the UK citizens enough time to evacuate before the Axis Armada demolishes their homes.
“Steambirds: Survival has the addictive and strategic gameplay that has already made the franchise so successful and includes a ton of new aerial combat features,” said Phil Larsen, chief marketing officer for Halfbrick. “We’ve worked hand-in-hand with Spry Fox to expand the narrative, build up the strategic elements, add new power-ups, achievements and, of course, the much-loved ability to battle for the highest score with other players through OpenFeint and Game Center.”

By day I play video games, test video games or just simply write about them. By night I fight crime on the streets of London as a masked vigilante known only to a select few ... damn SECRET identity. Could never get the hang of that.
I've been writing about video games for about 10 years now, and playing them for even longer, starting off with a Spectrum ZX passed down to me in about 1988. Yes, I used to play games that came on cassettes. Yes, they were AWESOME!
I've been writing for God is a Geek since October 2010 and loving every minute of it, aside from that I write for my own website and work as a video game tester for Testology. So, yeah, I'm pretty much living the life of a gamer, and I don't intend stopping anytime soon thank you very much.
Unless I run out of money, then we might have a problem.
