Ivanovich Games' multi-touch tap shooter, Operation Wow, and Ookoohko Oy's lovable platform game, Get Outta My Galaxy!, highlight today's AGF list, but we also have an app that allows your artistic side to shine, an Earth defense game, and a food breaking game to check out.
All app prices are subject to change at any time and without notice regardless of stated free duration. Price changes are solely under the control of the developers.
iPhone:
Operation wow ($.99 -> Free, 34.3 MB): A new spin on the classic arcade shooter, Operation Wolf.

The game features six levels in History mode, three difficulty levels, two mini-games, two endless modes, and Game Center integration.
Operation wow is available for free today only (04/30). It has a 4.5-star rating with a total of 58 ratings.
Get Outta My Galaxy! ($.99 -> Free, 36.6 MB): Guide Waka, the lovable multi-armed creature, through four solar systems slapping the many wikus that have begun to spread across his home planet in order to restore peace and quiet. The game features Super Mario Galaxy-style levels, power-ups to collect, and two different control schemes.
Get Outta My Galaxy! is available for free through the weekend. It has a 5-star rating with a total of 11 ratings.
