Star Rangers

For Immediate Release

November 8, 2009 - ANALOGretro, LLC., the new iPhone development “dream team”, has just released Star Rangers, a major new title for the iPod touch and iPhone. Star Rangers is a graphically intense first-person 3D space battle game with equal parts action and strategy. As you fly through the galaxy, defending your starbases from waves of enemy ships only your skills, strategy and speed will save you against the game’s advanced enemy AI. Protect your starbases, destroy the enemy and earn up to 18 achievement medals as you rise through the ranks of the Star Rangers!

Star Rangers ships with three unique gameplay modes, or “missions” with more on the way:

Galaxy Defense: Defend multiple bases throughout the galaxy as the enemy attempts to surround and destroy them. Plan your attack, warp to the enemy’s location, and clear each sector in a series of intense 3D accelerometer-based space battles.

Last Starbase: Defend one base from a seemingly insurmountable force of invaders. While you repair and refuel, they close on your position!

Instant Action: Quick battles, when you need some practice and want to get right to it!

OpenFeint* Leaderboards and Achievements! Though Star Rangers is a very past-paced game, strategy is needed to conserve resources to unlock achievements, achieve higher scores and a higher rank. Compare your score to other players and even issue a challenge to a friend to play the exact scenario you just completed!

Featuring:

• Colorful 3D environments, highly-textured models and dazzling pyrotechnic effects – an amazing attention to detail in a hand-held game

• Fast-paced first-person game-play in three different mission scenarios: Galaxy Defense, The Last Starbase and Instant Action. (With more to come!)

• Four Difficulty Levels: Rookie (training), Fighter (hone your skills), Warrior (the going gets tough), and Ace (the enemies show you no mercy!)
