This is a murder mystery choose-your-own-adventure with a solid dose of humour. Decent acting and a pretty long running time for a very good price ($2). As for this one, if it's of roughly the same quality I'll probably buy it. Too bad that these things are finished in so short a time, though.

Made it to level 4 so far. The controls seem to work well, actually a lot faster than turning left/right in the traditional game since you can just tilt in the direction you want to aim.

Controls always come down to personal preference, but at least you can try the lite version first. Oort Storm plays pretty well for me, and it fits my need for a higher level Asteroid game.
