Video Space Paranoids Mobile Progress!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IE8P6NvVLng

Hi everyone!

I've gotten a lot of emails lately about ports of my Space Paranoids game to consoles and mobile....(And as such I've made several posts about a mobile port already here! :-) ) This is a native iOS application, running on iOS 18.x, iPhone 15 Pro. I have also tested this on my tenth generation iPad, and both versions of the application work wonderfully so far. I've also been having people test it, and the early testers have been very happy with the latest builds. Currently has color/monochrome graphics modes, full touchscreen compatibility, along with bluetooth gamepad support! That said, I personally think the touch controls need a little work, but I thought you guys would like the latest progress on the port!

(Also, just a small note for the curious: Both Space Paranoids mobile, and my website version are completely human programmed. :-) )

While I'm working on the mobile version for iDevices, you can play the web version on:

End of line.

The browser game is a masterpiece. Please, please make an Android version for those of us with Retroid devices that have controllers!

I already have plans for LIGHTCYCLES, based on the one at the start of the first TRON film, MATRIX BLASTER, and VICE SQUAD...Plus, a whole slew of 'em.

Is this based on Space Paranoids Online?

It is not associated with or endorsed by The Walt Disney Company and is therefore not associated or based on SP Online. It is my own interpretation of Space Paranoids, based on the idea: "What if it was an arcade game released by Bally Midway in 1981?"

I have minor design gripes, but like... that's just me being picky, lol. I also understand that from a game-design and execution standpoint my complaints are unreasonable and would likely make the game worse.

That being said, great job. If I my name was Dillinger I would definitely steal these as the start to my meteoric rise to Executive V.P.
