"Space Cycler is highly entertaining with fun graphics and challenging on-rails tunnel shooting gameplay, and there is an awesome local co-op mode." - AppAdvice

A super fun space shooter with circular rail-shooter gameplay. You can play alone in single-player mode or play with your friends on the same device in co-op mode.

Aliens have conquered our planet. Only the bravest pilot can fly deep into enemy territory to attack. Fight side-by-side with your friends, piloting your space fighter to eliminate alien invaders!

Game Features: ◆ A unique “tunnel shooter” experience! Space Cycler is a retro space shooter with nostalgic circular rail-shooter gameplay. You control a space fighter flying at high speeds through a tunnel while facing incoming enemies.

◆ Co-op for double the fun! Play with your friends on the same device in co-op mode. The players each control a fighter and must coordinate to defeat the enemy.

◆ Save your teammate! In co-op mode you can save a teammate who is on the verge of death and bring him or her back to the battlefield. However, your fighters might collide, so be careful!

◆ Play single-handedly! The game is designed to be played with one hand. Just move the horizontal slide bar left and right, sit back, and enjoy.

◆ 3 space fighters and 3 ultimate attacks! The game includes 3 types of fighters, and each one comes with different weapons and ultimate attacks!

◆ 5 main levels and 10 boss fights! The game has 5 main levels that include enemies and bosses with various attacks, making this more than just another shoot 'em up game.

◆ Global and friend leaderboard! Space Cycler supports the iOS Game Center leaderboard and achievement system. Log in to your account and compete with your friends and players around the world to see who is better.

User Reviews

Users largely praise Space Cycler as a fun, arcade-like shooter with appealing visuals and a nostalgic Gyruss feel, plus the premium, no-IAP model. Common drawbacks center on controls that feel frustrating or messy, limited content (only 5 levels), and high difficulty later in the game, with requests for adjustable difficulty and lighter boss encounters.
Pros
  • Fun and enjoyable gameplay
  • Nostalgic arcade feel, reminiscent of Gyruss
  • Well-made visuals with colorful art
  • Premium game with no in-app purchases
  • Unique tunnel concept
Cons
  • Controls are frustrating/ Messy and need improvement
  • Too few levels (only 5); desire for more content
  • Difficulty is very high after early levels, with long boss fights
  • Lack of adjustable difficulty or difficulty settings

This is an awesome game. It’s just like Gyruss from the arcade. It’s well worth the $2!
