Caster on iPhone


3rd person shooter on iPhone with intuitive control scheme. Since someone asked, I’ve decided to post up a video of the game play on our iPhone version of Caster. The main reason we ported Caster to the iPhone was to challenge ourselves with creating a 3rd person shooter control scheme that would feel natural and work well on the iPhone. We are VERY happy with the resulting control scheme and excited to share it with everyone! Hopefully, you will get a chance to play the game when we release it in April `09. Until then, enjoy the video! You can also download and play the Mac and PC versions of the game here: www.casterthegame.com

    @ars9magna6opera

    Any progress on Caster 2?
    Many are still looking forward to it.

    Some times (not often) there is a little bit of a slow down when there are lots and lots of large explosions on the screen at the same time, but other than that, performance is nice and smooth even on a first gen iPod Touch (which is what I have).

    There is also a setting for draw distance that you can play around with.

    Looks real fun to be honest , but does it lag at all? , i have the 3rd gen ipod touch so i wanted to know if it plays smoothly

  6. NintendoKrazy says:

    oh ok thanks

  7. revelinabandon says:

    No, it’s just straight up single player goodness. Love this app.

  8. NintendoKrazy says:

    you have to connect to the internet to play?

    IMO this game is just awesome. If just you could add some character appearance customization (face style, skin color, armor, you know things that make good RPGs); improved graphics and animations; and of course a better background (not only a black something), I’d even pay 10 bucks for it.

  10. elecorn says:

    Well, there is an update coming out very soon with new maps and a new character. But yeah, Caster 2 would have some super sweet animation and character art. Thanks!

  11. ars9magna6opera says:

    definatly make caster 2 , i really had a great time with the game , the gamplay is awesome

  12. elecorn says:

    Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, better art would be nice. It works for what it is, but it doesn’t offer much other than just “being there”. If I make Caster 2, I will definitely give the art an overhaul.

    Thanks!

  13. ars9magna6opera says:

    i have to say , the art sucks big time , i jsut hate it , specially the main character
    but man , the gameplay is sick , if you gave more depht to the game and bettered the art or graphics, it would be top in the appstore

  14. elecorn says:

    Hey, thanks all!

    I’m hard at work on the next update. I apologize for the delay, but I do what I can with the limited time I have to work on Caster.

    Thanks!

    yay this is the only game that stills in my ipod after months and months :3 i love it!! i can’t wait for the update!!! :3 and the girl character!!! she looks nice :D ohh btw i love the green and the yellow powers :)

  16. revelinabandon says:

    The only problem is you have to deal with Steam. Good games there, but I don’t like having to connect to the internet to play single player games.

  17. elecorn says:

    Ha ha. That’s what my daughter likes to do in the game. Make “ponds” and “mountains”. Glad you like the game!

  18. sponsyspons says:

    Pwnage! Finished the game 5 times (3 on hardest) and i still love it! I once just kept on making mountains the whole landscape was flat… Took me 1h 15 mins (no i’m not a freak!)

  19. betterthanfatal1ty says:

    this game is five dolars on steam(in case you don’t kno steam is a pc gaming store ). its even better
