-IMPORTANT: I've decided to release Planet Wars for free. I owe a huge thankyou to those who did buy it, but sales are too low for me to justify keeping it as a paid game.
If you've purchased this game in the past then as a thank you your game will add an extra 10,000 in-game credits with this update for shiny new equipment. The game will now display a quick ad when you launch the game (there are no ads during gameplay)-- if you own the game and would prefer this not to happen, please ignore this update.
-You can now also earn in-game credits through TapJoy.
-Updated to fill screens on all iOS devices.
