Alright! My new game has launched! Check it out at the Android marketplace here
So here's the skinny: Tetris Attack meets Bust-a-Move, inasmuch as the clearing and complex combos/chaining function. The gimmick here is that each piece is 2-sided, flippable. You have a lot of control over the gameboard, it gets quite intense once you get used to how it plays.
Here's the other skinny: People don't like to pay for stuff on Android. So we've made this game in two versions: $1.99, and Free. Both are identical, except the Free one has ads (and content unlocks as you play). The kicker? Play the Free version for 10 cumulative hours, and after that not only is all the content unlocked, but the ads will be removed permanently. It will be exactly the same as the $1.99 version. No one has tried this method before, so let's see if it works.
I think those who try this game will have a hard time putting it down, it's done very well on "that other platform" and we have gone to considerable lengths to make this version much more polished. It's quite simple at first, but play for a few minutes and see if you don't get sucked into it as well. Please give it a try and give impressions in this thread - thanks, and enjoy!

That makes sense...after 10 hours, the $1.99 has been (in theory) made up from the advertising (though who ever clicks on those banners, at least intentionally?). Then after the cost of the game was covered by the advertising, why not make it full and legal? Plus you garner customer satisfaction by basically giving away a full game for free. I wish more ad-driven apps would go this route!
Edit: Oh, and grabbing it now, thanks!

Looks good, will give it a try. Nice idea about removing the ads after a certain time played.

Novel concept

thanks for checking it out, everyone!
I was initially rather concerned about the negative impact the ad banners would have on the experience (I hate in-game ads.. like, HATE HATE them) but to my surprise when we stuck them in, they didn't hardly register. I think it is to do with the game design as well, you seldom look at the top of the screen in this game (usually focus on middle and bottom because of how it plays) so it really wasn't very distracting to me.
Yeah this is really just a big experiment. I really just want to get my name out there and get some nice download numbers. The only way that can happen is if people like my game (I think it's a very good game, once you get to know it) and people see that and embrace it. I guess I will find out soon enough, eh..!

sounds awesome love the beta never got a chance to reply back definitely will dl this

well, it's been a hectic day. Reddit took to the game and we've been getting a lot of downloads for sure.. a couple other nice articles popped up giving us some decent exposure as well. Wonder what tomorrow will bring
here's a youtube of the original (lower-tech) iPhone version from last year. Starts out pretty easy going but gets quite hairy about 0:25 in

Display is broken on my mates Samsung I5801, displays everything but the bottom bar, which is just black with the score text overlayed. Game still plays but you can't see what tile is next.

I don't know if you know this about me... but there's one way to make me instantly go crazy about a game... make it a Shoot 'Em Up with RPG elements and/or melee weapons.

EnbornX on the Android Market

Oh noes!! The Earth is under attack by a Endless Reborn Machine!!
Looks promising, Ill check it out thanks.

Any game TLRtheory recommend has to be good to try!
I tested the game just now, weird the X/[]/O//\ buttons work just fine.
I also noticed that you can select "RELATIVE " in the option for the control mode instead of "D-PAD", that will hide the on-screen dpad and still you can use the PLAY control pad and enjoy more of the screen.​

Its working? What r800 do you have? I think it might be like pewpew where only certain models work right

I have R800i
still in 2.3.3 firmware.
not sure what's the issue
I'm really enjoying the game, btw

Yeah, I'm thinking it's another compatibility issue.
Like I mentioned before, another game worked like this. PewPew 2 would only work with R800a, not R800x or R800i. Probably just didn't make the controls work for all R800 models.

The developer just updated the game today with quick fix.
That was fast!! I hope that resolve the issue.

Seriously... it's like seeing Japanglese games like Zero Wing in the beginning of the nineties all over again. When will the brainy graphical adventures à la Monkey Island or Grim Fandango take over like they did in the middle nineties?

Sure did! ...and I'd have to give a second "DAMN that was fast!"
Is it just me, or are these mobile app developers getting to be more competent than the big-time console devs?
Definitely giving them props on my Youtube publication channel.

This game is pretty fun. Works fine with the XPlay controls. I was a little thrown off by the boss after boss after boss kind of thing at first, but it does make for a good mobile game.

Fcuk, boss already at the beginning of the level.. I'm s*ck at this.. But i will try to finish this game, I don't wanna waste my 2$ for this..
TLRtheory you rock.. you always post new game that is optimized for our phone..

Yeah, I think the barriers between independent developers and consumers is very limited especially within the android market/appstore.
It is very easy and convinent for us to rate & write a comment -which only take few minutes- to support the dev or request or complain about something.
I think it is very important feature and very beneficial for everyone within the eco system to take advantage of. Especially for us PLAY owners if we want more support & trust from the developers.
I think I would start a thread in PLAY general forum to discuss it & its long-term benefit. Only if I weren't lazy

Buggy games like Bethesda's and Gameloft's are sold by the millions and seldom, if ever, have their bugs fixed. Indie devs do well in listening to their customers, but it's obvious that it's not a key feature for success.

It's not new and it was free and XPlay optimized for at least 1 month.

OMG OMG OMG, buy Nokia 3310, it's new and free if you find it in the trash bin!!!!11

Yeah, you can only get so far without paying real $£€¢¥ for upgrades.
More freemium **** that's killing the Android market.

Its the first I've heard of it, there are no posts about it here, and its not on the XPlay games list here. So sorry that I don't stalk the market for games every day, I have bigger fish to fry. First I heard of it was on the SE facebook and that said it was new.

According to the game it can be completed without paying for anything. It does ask you and give you opportunities to pay money to unlock all the levels but you can just ignore them.

it's fun but battery drain is to much even emulators or gameloft games don't demand that much juice. it demands 3x more battery juice !?
When playing gameloft games I am around 225-300mA but with this game it's 900mA go figure
Just uninstalled it from phone

I have this, and got to the 2nd book before I ran out of the in game currency to unlock the 2nd book. I'm thinking I could've had enough coins to unlock it without paying anything if I had just bought the cheapest shield when the time comes, instead of the next step up. There is no difference between the two as far as game play is concerned from what I could see. I just wiped my phone and I definitely reinstalled it, it's a great game in my opinion. Very fun, and the Xperia controls make it super fun. I couldn't imagine having to play it on a touch screen.

I have a ton of currency, probably because I went back and replayed some levels trying to get the cards and make sure I have all the coins.

Nice! I was always wondering if this game would ever be Xperia PLAY optimized.
My only problem is that I'm getting sick to the stomach of "auto-running" games. Just let me control the damn character. It's still fun though, and I thank you for making this topic.

Railshooter Heist The Score now out

I just have found this game when I searched for news at xperiagamer.com. Comes from Dead on Arrival developer. It is a rail shooter so it is only possible to aim and duck. But it´s challenging. The graphics are quite okay. The story is about a bank heist during the 1920´s. And it is optimized for our Xperia Play! Go under settings and choose D-pad. It´s also possible to use the touchpads for aiming. Available for 99 Cents (Europe) in Android Market so grab it while it´s cheap!
(Can´t post link because of 8 posts limit)

Came out yesterday evening, actually. Don't worry about the link, I'll help you out there.

A simple bank job, yeah right. “Get in, get the combination, get to the vault and get out” so they said. When put like that it sounds easy. What actually happened is a whole different story ...
Heist tells the thrilling story of a daring bank robbery set in the prohibition era of 1920’s America. A carefully comprised plan with as little mess as possible turns horribly wrong, leaving you to fight your way out of an impossible situation. What are you willing to do to come out on top?
You begin the story as a low level enforcer for the mafia working under the enigmatic Salvatore Da Luca, a veteran from the recently ended Great War. Once he inspired acts of valour in the trenches, now he uses those same qualities for greed and corruption by liberating banks of their excess holdings.
Sal doesn’t work alone, his trusted associate Giuseppe Gallo always teams up for the score. He’s known as the loose cannon who can wind up being more trouble than he’s worth. Shoot first; ask question later is how he operates. He has a grudge with the world, and he’s not too fond of you either. You better make sure not to put a foot wrong.
The bank just opened and the scores all set, are you in?

HEIST: The Score MARKET LINK

It looks awesome !
Btw how does it play ?

I think it plays nice. You shoot your way through the whole bank with different weapons like a Thompson, a pistol and a rifle. The gameplay seems a bit easy but it´s not because the enemies are not stupid and take cover too. You must use cover to regain health if you´re wounded and to protect yourself. Ammo boxes must be shoot to get ammo. Sound weird but it is like that. The cutscenes are interesting. I like this 1920 setting and this story about a bank heist which went wrong.
The controls are good. You shot with R and duck with L, reloading is done with SQUARE and swapping weapons can be done with CIRCLE and TRIANGLE. Aiming can be a bit tricky though because the touchpads aren´t really precise. I use the d-pad instead. I think its worth buying for 99 Cents.

Crap didn't see this post when searched lol iv just bought its pretty good game u need to get the sensitive controls ironed out but when u do it's great. :-D thanks for the info

I had to look in wikipedia since I never played scamble before. I can make a game similar to that, just have to figure out the best control layout. I will get to work on that after I finish my next game.
I realized that Fear the walking dead run was released for IOS but not android. I am going to do a 2D version of that game and then work on a Scramble port.

Cheers, look forward to that. I miss the old games, another classic is centerped, the sequel was called millipede

Ok quick update on what I am working on
1) My larger game project which is %60 complete is going to be a God type game similar to pocket God.
2) Also since Nintendo has disrespected us Android users by releasing Super Mario Run for Iphone only, I will be making a version for us Android users. My run game is %80 done and should be released in 2 to 3 days. I am heavily disappointed in Nintendo's choice of platform since Apple's Iphone has been doing terrible the last year and a half.

For those who liked this game I have another game out now Super Retro Bros Run
