iPhone users never run out of options when it comes to choosing which game they want to purchase as each day brings a gamut of choices for them. ICS Mobile has announced the availability of Navy Patrol:Coastal Defense for the iPhone.
This game now brings several new layers to the Tower Defense genre as it incorporates RGP and RTS elements into a water based environment, which has been supported by the company’s AWS Fluid Simulation Engine. This game offers several hours of gameplay that will be prolonged by regular maps and special updates.
“The development process for Navy Patrol:Coastal Defense was a real challenge since we needed to simultaneously develop a fluid simulation engine, an open path tower defense game as well as a completely new RPG inspired experience points system” said Joe Bayen, CEO at icsmobile.com [ICS Mobile].
The Navy Patrol:Coastal Defense now includes a gamut of unique features such as ‘Turret Targeting System’ which will permit gamers to micromanage each individual turret. The ‘Skills Tree System’ on the other hand will let users unlock a variety of weapon specials ranging from missile barrages, B52 air raids and Tsunami waves and ‘Touch-guided’ satellite laser attack and accelerometer-controlled storm special.
“Our main objective was to reinvigorate the tower defense genre by bringing a more intense and engaging gaming atmosphere to players”, said Andrew Zeck lead programmer on Navy Patrol:Coastal Defense.“We wanted to provide players with a multitude of tactical elements which will give them the freedom to personalize their game strategy.”
An all new social gaming environment has also been embedded with the integration of Facebook connect. Apart from this, ICS mobile is fully engaged with its gaming community through the Navy Patrol game forum.
This game can be purchased from Apple’s App Store for $2.99 within the first 48 hours and $4.99 thereafter.
