GI:Dropchord starts with a simple mechanic – dragging a line across a playfield to destroy dots – and incrementally adds layers of complexity until the “game over” screen inevitably hits. Visually, it’s similar to classic arcade games, and even more contemporary titles like Geometry Wars. Unfortunately, it never gels in any satisfying way. The results are interesting for an hour or so, but it’s not likely to retain a permanent spot on your iOS device.
Double Fine Productions announced today that some of the developer’s mobile games on iPhone and iPad will not be updated when iOS 11 is released later this year.

Touch Arcade - "If you have no tolerance for Electronic Dance Music (EDM), Double Fine’s Dropchord [$0.99] won’t be your thing. No chance. It may as well be called EDM: The Game, packed with visceral, beat-dropping music and intense, glowing visuals. It’s video-game-as-album, with tracks and verses instead of stages. I happen to love both EDM and video games. And I love Dropchord."
