InstantAction are actively working on the next Galcon project to enable iPhone gamers to take on PC users who play the popular strategy game. Developed by Phil Hassey and originally appeared on desktops version before finally making its way to the iTunes App Store last year.
The iPhone version comes with five different game modes and also features sound effects, resume support, several map layouts and a text driven help screen.

“Galcon” is a popular planet capturing strategy game already on the iPhone that already includes some robust multiplayer, including Internet-based play with other iPhone users, but like “Scrabble,” it requires access to a Wi-Fi point.
With “Galcon” now on the PC, however, one of those restrictions will be lifting. The InstantAction guys told me they’re actively working to allow InstantAction “Galcon” players to go head-to-head with “Galcon” iPhone users in a future update.
The Galcon iPhone version costs only $4.99 –instead of $9.99 that it previously used to cost– through the AppStore.
