Space Grunts Hack 1.7.3 + Redeem Codes

It's a good little game. Controls are a little funky at times, but otherwise you're given what they show. Certainly worth more than 1.99.

This might be Orange Pixel’s best game. It’s turn-based but fast & snappy. It pays real tribute to classic roguelikes, packed with danger and a huge variety of items and enemies, requiring a good amount of strategy to survive. Lately I’ve been having a blast playing it on the iPad Pro with a nimbus controller (thanks for having controller support!), which streamlines the interface and speeds up the experience even more. Highly recommended if you’re into the rogue scene.

I like this game a lot on the PC, especially after the patch that fixed the sensitive movement issue. It appears they haven't fixed that issue on the ios version, because it's real easy to accidentally double move. An often deadly thing to do, very frustrating.

5 stars once that's fixed, this game is great fun, and a rare sci-fi style roguelike.

PS. If you're having trouble with the inventory button too close to the movement controls, change the positions in the options menu.

I've been a huge fan of Orange Pixel since Meganoid hit the AppStore years back, so my review is probably going to be pretty bias (just laying it out there, also of note, I've become a pretty big TBS and Roguelike fan over the last couple years). But, this is definitely up there among the best games that they have put out. I don't know if Heroes of Loot or this, Space Grunts, is my #1 favorite OP game, but they both give up an amazingly spectacular run for it. The controls might take some getting use to, as they're virtual, but resizing is coming in an update and ATM you can place every button wherever you'd like on the screen. Once I played about 3 games, they were perfect. I couldn't imagine playing it any other way. The mix of action and turn-based gameplay is done incredibly well. I really just can not stop gushing about every aspect of the game. The menus are well done, the UI layout/map setup is on point, the graphics are killer (though they may not look it in the AppStore screens, the game looks GREAT in motion - check out some HQ vids!), the roguelike aspect is done perfectly---It's a great game. One that has already (VERY VERY quickly) earned it's spot on my own GOTY list (#2 of 2 ATM [Feb]) - but I wholeheartedly recommend this to roguelike fans itching for the genre to take a turn towards more arcade-based gameplay. =oD

**update**

The new update rocks... thank you for the resizing controls option, the new item and giving each character a level upgrade once they beat the game (having something that sticks with you after making it through that was a great decision...) - and the tweaks. This has very quickly become, not only one of my favorite games of the year, but also one of my favorite roguelikes ever. GET IT!!!!

Once again Orange Pixels knocks it out of the park! From the unique graphics style, to the sounds and gameplay, this game screams fun & polish! This game is also a fully premium game with no shenanigans. The gameplay is really well done. There are lots of weapon types and a decent amount of ammo given with whatever class you choose. There is also a daily challenge mode which is pretty cool. The humor is also great in the game and the randomized levels keep things fresh. The dev is very active with the community at the touch arcade forums and has incorporated requests and changes. The on screen controls are also fully customizable, even resizable, and the buttons can be moved to anywhere you like on the screen. Really well done dev. Thank you for an awesome time!

Great game overall. Good pixel graphics. My only gripe (literally the only complaint I have) is the controls. I feel there could be a great swipe movement/tap to shoot control scheme implemented. I like the option to change controls, personally I moved the shoot button Right in middle of the directional pad for one handed play, but a swipe-type mechanic could work well. 5***** hoping that the controls can be updated.

I enjoyed this one. It does a lot of things well. The environment is as dangerous as the enemies, it's always fun to open up a room and find it full of radiation or fire. The enemies are interesting, I like the ones with predictable behavior that you can dance around without getting hurt. The only thing I didn't like was the mandatory getting shot whenever I opened a door. Besides a remote control bomb, there was no way of avoiding that. Might I suggest shoot able doors?

I've almost had enough of rogue likes, most are the same old thing, play a few times and it's the same old stuff, not offering enough to keep up my interest. OP did it right with this one, great pixel art graphics, great sounds, the right amount of randomness each run... Just makes you want to again and again. Grab it now for $2 and get a heck of a lot more than your money's worth!

I played about 10 minutes of this game, and while I like it on a conceptual level, the D-Pad is atrocious. I would go with a slightly modified 868-HACK style control scheme (it's my favorite implementation of a 4-directional control scheme on iOS): swipe once to face that direction, swipe again to move one tile in that direction, swipe and hold to keep moving in that direction. It's pretty easy to implement too. Hope that helps! This game seems really cool. :D

The game is extremely enjoyable but it's really hard to progress. And I feel that the player is encouraged to blast open boxes for items but sometimes a container might fill the room with poisonous gas, leaving you no where to go but die. I think it would be better if the gas would eventually evaporate but it doesn't. It's a little too challenging for casual play.
