Halfbrick is taking the game to the next level on iPhone. In addition to the massive variety of levels and planets across multiple difficulty settings, the team is developing intuitive touch screen controls and a brand new Endless Mode, where you can compete for high scores around the world on global leaderboards using OpenFeint.
