[GAME] Monster Shooter (Best Dual-stick shooter)-Insufficient Storage Solution

Great game that I would like to share with you guys, can't believe that there is no thread on this yet. An awesome free app that knows no bounds, download it now on the Google Play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gamelion.MonsterShooter#?t=W251bGwsMSwyXQ..
GAME DESCRIPTION: ABOUT MONSTER SHOOTER
Just when you thought it couldn't get any better... it did! We took the dual-stick shooter formula and optimized it to deliver the best game we could: Monster Shooter, the new dual-stick mayhem sensation!
IT'S FREE TO PLAY!
Download the game free of charge and prove that you can handle the best mission and progress system. Visit numerous levels across three different planets and enjoy hours of free gameplay!
IT LOOKS AND SOUNDS GREAT!
Hand-drawn 2D ultra violence has never looked this cute. With a vast array of enemies, guns and effects, Monster Shooter is one of the best-looking games of its genre which also runs smoothly on older devices.
WEAPONS AND GEAR KICK BUTTS!
Never underestimate a guy whose cat has been stolen by aliens. As DumDum, you can blast your enemies with shotguns, plasma rifles and rocket launchers and spice things up with a handful of grenades... If they're still moving after that lot, use the nuke! The blood looks and sounds disturbingly fun!
THE MORE AWESOME YOU GET...
The more awesome Monster Shooter gets. Complete multiple missions and improve your rankings. Buy new stuff and show your skills off to other players using the OpenFeint.
WHAT'S NEXT?
Monster Shooter is here to stay. Download the game, follow DumDum in his quest to save the kitten, shoot your way through foreign planets and have as much fun as possible! Leave the new updates, new levels and new monsters to us; just keep playing.
Try your skill and luck in Survival mode and see if you've got what it takes to rise right up there with the leaderboard masters. See you at the top!
Review: Hand-drawn 2D ultra violence has never looked this cute!
"Call it an unfair bias, but I wasn’t expecting a free-to-play game to look this good." - 148Apps review
IMO, probably one of the best games I've played on the market. Great graphics, addictive, smooth gameplay and best of all it's the free full version
NOTE: For those that are getting "insufficient storage" error, download "Market Fix" here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wxLDEwNCwibmV0LmZlbGlwZWFyb24ubWFya2V0Zml4Il0. (HOWEVER YOU MUST HAVE ROOT ACCESS)
ENJOY

Thank you. As for graphics is concerned -- we're a really small team with just a couple of designers. We create art by ourselves, but as one can see -- our guys are really great and talented.
