A new Phoenix HD update just in time for the holidays! This is a big update with the following great features: * First new feature: the Flare! Flare is a classic ship inspired by our first shmup, Flare Elite! The ship has a special Overdrive ability, which fires an autocannon barrage at the enemies. You can fire it as much as you like, but activating the Overdrive drains half of your hit points, so use it with caution. The ability can be activated just like you would use a stored powerup, by putting a second finger on the screen. It’s like the ship is always carrying an Alpha Strike! Flare also comes equipped with the Kappa drive, which is activated by releasing your finger from the screen. Flare will stop shooting and attract health clouds and power-ups much faster. Great to grab that Alpha Strike which is floating in a sea of bullets. * Second new feature: Test Flights! Any ships you have not unlocked yet will become periodically available to take for a spin. There are no restrictions and you can play them just as you would have unlocked them. Once you used the test flight, a new random ship will become available for test flight after a while. Finally, this update contains some bug fixes. The most important of which is that it is now possible to disarm the Brute and get the achievement! As always, your reviews are very welcome and support us. Please leave a review if you enjoy Phoenix HD.

Update for compatibility with iOS 8 and the new iPhones! Also fixes a few small bugs. On iOS 8, our super cool TV mode now runs at 60 FPS over Airplay on modern devices and good WiFi networks. Try it out!
