Shmups for Cell Phones.

Post by Kaspal »

hello there folks.

i remember participating in a thread that talked about certain cave shmup on a japanese cellphone... and i kinda remember participating in another thread talkin about mobile shmups in general.

but i dont remember that there is a list of the shmups available for such platform.

so, does anyone knows of a list of the currently released shmups for mobile phones?

im currently using a N73 ME, and so far i've tried some shmups on it, some good, some REALLY bad.

the ones that comes to mind are:

Space Impact Kappa Base (i love this one)
Alpha Wing 2 (repetitive, but good looking)
Alpha Wing (meh!)
Sky Force (playable)
Sky Force Reloaded (i like it)
siberian strike 1 y 2 (...)
Burning Skies
Heli Strike
Xyanide
Air Strike
Dragon Bird (interesting...)
Tyrian (classic...)
TAM 1942 (...)

ok... thats it.

does anyone else know about some other mobile shmups?

I accidentally bought Galaga 3 for my Sony Ericsson the other day... as in: what does this icon do? Downloading ... whoops.

Still, despite the kind of low framerate it makes a nice change from Tetris.

Gradius Neo was pretty sweet for a cell game.

I have a Japanese cell and some games for it. The cave ports are pretty impressive I guess, the earlier games are kind of choppy but the newer ones are pretty smooth. It still sucks playing on a keypad tho.

They have a port of DOJ where you play as Mushihimesama though, I thought that was pretty fun.

Oh yeah. Rrootage for iPhone. Bad framerate at the toughest parts, but it's leagues ahead of the rest.
