FISHLABS, a specialized developer of 3D mobile games, has just announced its new title Earth Defender for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. Earth Defender is an action-packed arcade game, which lets the players become defenders of the Earth against hordes of aliens. The game calls for more than just good reflexes and tactical fire to defend the Earth, and promises to offer hours of fun.

In Earth Defender – First Encounter, players will be able to use a versatile arsenal of weapons including, blast bombs, which cause gigantic explosions, all-devouring black hole bombs, and electric lightning bombs.

Using bombs skillfully will enable you to spread them over every opponent, triggering enormous chain reactions. If you think the things are going wrong for you, then you can use one of the five superbombs that destroy or heavily damage every enemy in sight, as a last resort.

Because we have not had an arcade game with such simple yet captivating game play for casual gaming in our portfolio so far, Earth Defender is an ideal addition to our complex, hard-core programme,’ says Michael Schade, CEO of FISHLABS Entertainment GmbH. ‘This is why we are publishing a title from another developer for the first time and are offering our marketing know-how to support the talented, young developer studio ANIMA Entertainment, from Bremen, who have created a terrific action game with Earth Defender.’

As the game progresses, players will be provided with a variety of achievements, that ensures some motivation to continue playing. These achievements are earned through especially skilled placement of bombs and chain reactions and can be shared with friends via Facebook or Twitter. On-line highscore lists are also another motivational perk for international competition.

Earth Defender is for everyone who loves spectacular action and not only brings a breath of fresh air for veteran players, but also offers rookies a fantastic gaming experience,’ says Nicolas Born, CEO of ANIMA Entertainment. ‘As big fans of Galaxy on Fire and Rally Master Pro, we are very happy to be working with FISHLABS and could not have imagined a better partner for Earth Defender.’

Some of the key features of the game include: Spectacular graphics with elaborate effects and detailed animated backgrounds; Atmospheric, orchestral soundtrack and impressive sound; Multi-touch action with up to five fingers; Seven unique level bosses and a gigantic end boss; Six different levels with 14 different enemy types; 20 OpenFeint achievements and integration in Facebook and Twitter; On-line highscore lists via OpenFeint.

Earth Defender can be downloaded now from iTunes for $ 0.99 for the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.
