‘Archetype’ By MunkyFun – Out Now
Well, MunkyFun has finally released their online FPS (first person shooter) Archetype onto the App Store for $2.99. Not to long ago, a trailer was released for Archetype which you can see here. Now, the biggest difference Archetype and other online shooters (such as Ngmoco’s Eliminate) is that Archetype will be 5v5, not free-for-all. Archetype is said to work over WiFi, 3G, and EDGE connections, so it will be interesting to see how well a EDGE connection can handle a 5v5 death-match. Archetype features:
- OPTIMIZED for iPHONE 4: Takes full advantage of Retina Display with HIGHER RESOLUTION weapons, textures and crisper on-screen HUD. Headshots never looked so good!
