Pixel Whirled is an arcade shooter in which players have to constantly flip back and forth between the ninja and pirate sides of the screen while shooting down encroaching waves of enemies. Isn’t it nice when two mortal enemies can put aside their differences in the name of self-preservation? Pixel Whirled has received a few new additions in its transition from an Xbox Live Indie Game to iOS.

This is all in addition to the retro arcade goodness already contained within, of course. If Pixel Whirled sounds interesting (and really, why wouldn’t it?), why not do a quick search for it on the App Store? It’s available right now for the low cost of one dollar. $0.99 Pixel Whirled iPhone App - Designed for the iPhone, compatible with the iPad Released: 2011-09-24 :: Category: Games The Last Rocket Review + Universal App - Designed for iPhone and iPad Posted August 23rd, 2011 by Rob Rich Our Rating: :: EXPLOSIVE FUN The Last Rocket is a fantastic retro-inspired platformer with oodles of personality and charm.
