Rovio Mobile’s latest installment in the Angry Birds saga is now available. Angry Birds Space is now available for Apple’s iOS devices, Google’s Android devices, plus the PC and Mac.
Angry Birds Space comes with some new characters and a new physics engine for the ‘no gravity’ gameplay. This new physics engine introduces a unique twist to the traditional Angry Birds mechanics, making the game more challenging and engaging. Players will need to adjust their strategies to account for the lack of gravity, which affects the trajectory of the birds and the stability of the structures they aim to destroy. Have a look at the screenshots below.
New Characters and Features
In addition to the new physics engine, Angry Birds Space introduces several new characters, each with unique abilities that add depth to the gameplay. For example, there is Ice Bird, who can freeze objects, making them more susceptible to breaking. Another new character is Lazer Bird, who can change direction mid-flight, allowing for more precise targeting. These new characters are designed to complement the existing roster of birds, providing players with a variety of tools to tackle the game’s increasingly complex levels.
The game also features new environments, including planets with different gravitational pulls and space-themed obstacles. These new settings not only add visual variety but also require players to think creatively about how to use the environment to their advantage. For instance, some levels feature gravitational fields that can pull the birds in unexpected directions, adding an extra layer of challenge.
Availability and Pricing
There are a couple of versions available for iOS, with the iPhone and iPod Touch version retailing for $0.99, and the HD iPad version retailing for $2.99. The Android version is available for $0.99, and the Mac version is available for $4.99. Each version is optimized for its respective platform, ensuring smooth performance and high-quality graphics.
For PC users, the game can be downloaded from various online platforms, providing a seamless experience whether you’re playing on a desktop or a laptop. The PC version also supports higher resolutions, making it a great option for those who want to enjoy the game’s stunning visuals on a larger screen.
The game has received positive reviews from both critics and players, who praise its innovative gameplay mechanics and the fresh challenges it offers. The addition of new characters and environments has been particularly well-received, as it keeps the gameplay feeling fresh and exciting even for long-time fans of the series.
