Inspired by the very best shoot-em-ups from the past ten years, Eclipse: First Wave combines classic gameplay with state of the art graphics and sound to fully immerse the player in the non-stop action.

Paul writes: "The Alien Invention founders Jonathan Smith and Iain Miller are without a doubt two of the most respected members of the flourishing Smartphone community. It's great to see their talents coming together in a game that will have players glued to their phone! I think that Eclipse: First Wave makes a very strong statement about the gaming potential of the Smartphone hardware and operating system - it's impressive that a platform designed from the outset to be a great phone and a valuable business tool can eclipse dedicated mobile gaming hardware from other manufacturers.

Guest unclelimey Posted April 19, 2004 Report Posted April 19, 2004 just bought it, works fine, its a great game, although using superlatives like "setting new standards" and "a benchmark " are kinda stretching the truth a little .. nice work though :D
Guest Vector Posted April 19, 2004 Report Posted April 19, 2004 After playin this game for an hour or so i still haven't got past the first level ;) it truly does rock tho :D
Guest midnight Posted April 19, 2004 Report Posted April 19, 2004 Martin, replied via email, hope thats solved it :D
Guest martin Posted April 19, 2004 Report Posted April 19, 2004 Excellent :D/ All sorted now - thanks to midnight for his support ;) This is a brilliant game and well worth the dosh :lol: God knows how long it's gonna take me to get to the later levels (even with auto fire on :wink: ) but I always want to see what's round the corner and for me that usually means death :evil: Time to practice I reckon. Can't wait for other AI games - nice one guys.
