John In Space is a fast-paced arcade shooter featuring 45 levels across four distinct chapters. Fight waves of aliens, survive intense battles and meteor storms, defend the center of the screen with limited ammunition, and use destructible asteroid shields against aggressive alien hunters. Each chapter introduces a new style of play: • Chapter 1 – Destroy alien waves, avoid enemy fire and collect friendly ships for ammunition, shields, extra lives and weapon upgrades. • Chapter 2 – Break serpent formations and survive meteor storms by finding safe routes through the battlefield. • Chapter 3 – Rotate your shuttle at the center of the screen and destroy enemies approaching from every direction. Ammunition is limited, so every shot matters. • Chapter 4 – Fight one or two intelligent hunters while enemy fire gradually destroys the asteroid shields protecting your shuttle. Features: • 45 increasingly challenging levels • Four different gameplay styles • Power-ups, shields, ammunition ships and weapon upgrades • Game Center high scores • Highest Level leaderboard • Hall of Fame for players who complete all 45 levels • Continue from your highest unlocked level • No advertising Levels 1–15 are included. A single optional in-app purchase unlocks Levels 16–45 and the complete game.
