[1]Hothead Games [1] has launched a significant update for the colorful side-scrolling iOS swimming game, Sea Stars. Version 1.3 introduces two new seascapes, three new swimmers, and a new sea buddy aid. The game has also been localized for Simplified Chinese, Korean, and the popular European, Swedish store. To celebrate, the Sea Stars is now available on the App Store for free [2].
Ms. Nibbles the alligator, Perry the polar bear, and Cthathy-Loo the Great Old One are joining the adorable cast of Sea Stars, each bringing unique abilities to the sea. Ms. Nibbles hungrily snaps up the coin-stealing sea urchins, and Perry claws through freezing icebergs. The powerful Cthathy-Loo blasts through both new hazards with ease.
Storval the Whale has also joined the ranks of the helpful Sea Buddies and can glide through the water and air with the touch of a finger.
