Description

Star Fortress is a colorful, faster paced homage to a 1980's classic that pits you against the Star Lord and his Star Fortress. The objective is to destroy the Star Lord that sits in the center of three spinning rings before he becomes fully mobile and gives chase.

You will need to blast away at the rings surrounding the Star Lord in order to create the opening needed to destroy him. During all this the Star Lord will constantly track you, and firing as soon as there is an opening available to it. If you manage to destroy the Star Lord, you will earn 5000 points plus a bonus for the number of ring segments remaining on the screen and time elapsed.

There are three sparks that will harass you throughout the level and will destroy you on contact. You can destroy the sparks with your own bullets but the sparks are not worth any points.

As stated before, you must destroy the Star Lord before he becomes mobile. An audible and visual alert is triggered about 10 seconds before the Star Lord becomes mobile. Once mobile, your bullets will no longer destroy it nor the fortress rings and your only choice is to escape. If you are destroyed while trying to escape, the level ends and you move on to the next level.

To control the game, position your thumbs over the controller overlay at the bottom of the screen. You can rotate your ship left and right with the left thumb. You control your thrusters and fire control with your right thumb. If you happen to run into the Star Fortress, your ship will bounce harmlessly (unless there's a spark attached to that particular ring segment). While your ship is fading in, you are free to move and are invulnerable for a few seconds.

Before the start of each game, you're free to select the level of your choosing. Veteran players need not be forced to start from the first level. Star Fortress has unlimited levels much like the original that inspired it. Unlike the original, the Star Lord has a few extra tricks up his sleeve as you advance through the levels.

Score Table:
Wall Segment - 33 points
Star Lord - 5000 points + time and ring segment bonus
Escape - 5000 points (no time nor ring segment bonus)

Extra Ships at 5000, 15000, 25000, 50000, and every 50000 thereafter

Tips:
-Stay moving. Remaining stationary can quickly become deadly once there's an opening in the fortress. It will also keep you ahead of the sparks
-Shoot the Star Lord quickly for better time bonuses. These bonuses can make the difference on earning that next extra ship
-Shooting out all the segments for a ring will cause a new ring to be regenerated from the center

plhale,
Great game
I have loved this game for 38 years. This is a great recreation. One request: please add keyboard control. This game plays well on the iPad, but needs a keyboard for fine control.
Pedwardhigg,
Great game but was better
Great app. I loved the arcade game it’s based on. I’ve been playing this for several years on my phone, But I am disappointed with the recent update. Wish I hadn’t updated. New version scales down the Fortress and the fighter ship. This gives more space but on small devices the size of fighter and fortress seem too small, also the controls are now more sensitive in a negative way.
JindoFox,
Thanks for keeping this up to date!
I love retro-styled vector games on iPhone. This one was one of the first, based on a truly classic arcade game, and the inspiration for Yars' Revenge. Awesome.
VicMaxrow,
Old Fun
I love this "blast" from the past. This was a favorite game from my teenage years! Thanks for the update!
Nick Nöthing,
Awesome Game!
Star Castle was my game when I was a kid! They nailed it with this one! So happy I found it!
Atlas3650,
Excellent rendition of star c---tle!
I loved this game as a kid so I was thrilled to see you ported it to IOS.

Can you make the buttons taller? They're too small on an iPhone and too easy to miss at critical moments .. I want to see thd new staf lord tricks but can't get far enough without the small controls foiling me...

Otherwise everything feels like back in the day... Except to need for quarters!
Kidmo99,
Frickin' Awesome!
Just like SC. I couldn't believe it. Takes some getting used to again, but just like the old days. How about space duel, star wars arcade game, battle zone, black widow, tempest etc. I think you guys would do all those games awesome justice.
Americabev,
thumbs way up
Awesome re-make of star castle. oooo those sounds. you got them!! Whoever made this: you did great. NOW you need to do a re-make of Phoenix, the game that was better than Gallaga!
DanSz1138,
Needs tweaks
My shots should go much faster than my ship can fly. Speed them up, please!!! In fact, the pace of the game could stand some speed increases.

Good controls. I'd rather see the ship bounce off and turn around the side walls instead of just stop dead.

Fun and much like the original. Ok for $0.99.
Pepperoniking,
Love this game. Recent update, not so much.
Loved this game as a kid. Sucked at it too. Love the old graphics. But, with the recent update, the game won't end! I'm up to 350 million, and the game will not end. I've been committing suicide, and the game won't end!! It's ridiculous.
