How to play Space Hike.

Space Hike is a simple turn based game in which you command the Starship Expendable in a war against invading Mingon battleships.

Tap on the map location you want to travel to (using the powerful Whoop drive) and if a Mingon ship is there you will do battle!

Fire one of your limited number of Torpedoes to do maximum damage, or use your lasers to try and destroy your opponent before your armour or batteries run out.

Land on space bases or colony planets to resupply and make sure you have enough snacks in the onboard snack dispensers or your crew will starve!

Rid the galaxy of the evil Mingon scourge, then write your own version or modify the game for your own rules. As Space Hike is a very simple game, the chapter on writing it is very easy to understand and will get you up and writing games in no time!

three strikes this app is out

This app is a waste of space, all u do is press a button that says missle or whoop or laser and when u do it says missle fired and the battery goes down like ninety percent in less than a minute. I felt like  for downloading it

Lame

Didn't love it

intended as a app to learn iphone game programming

People need to take in mind this app is intended to assist in learning game programming for the iphone. It is the subject of chapter 3 in Apress's iphone game programming book. The game is kept simple to facilitate the learning of iphone programming.

:/

I wish the game was more to the point of being a app creation helper.:(

?¿?¿?¿

I don't get it at all, but it was kinda fun

Its 

Fun when bored 

Terrible

Game preview is misleading do not download, all you do is press buttons, there is no actual flying or shooting, just pressing buttons and boredom I wish there was a zero stars option

Great Game

For a Free Game this game is great
