Ah snap... I completely forgot this game was coming out for our phone. Awesome... loved it on my old xbox.....funny game.

See, it's **** like this that's making it very hard to leave my Xperia Play and pay attention to my PSVita.
I mean, I already had this on my iPod Touch... but yeah... touch controls = automatic inferior experience.

Touchpad, right, is for looking around the room and its reveresed. So touching the left side of the riht touchpad make you go opposite direction in viewing angle. Also sometimes you press the right touchpad and you screen just spins.... very annoying. am still keeping this game as its funny and I enjoyed it. I am going to email the Dev InXile and ask that they continue to perfect the controls because this game as a lot of potential on our phone. I saw a little lag every now and then. CGI videos are only half screen. It does support both touchpds and dpad, but it does not show up in the Xperia pLAY launcher.
We are able to adjust the performance of the game in the performance options so that it will run better if needed. Also I set all performance settings on high or maximum and bumped my phones CPU to 1.2ghz on performance and saw no or very very little lag. Just my findings.
I am emailing them now with my gratitude and some ideas to make the game better control wise, and yes I did mention Xperia PLAY Launcher support.
Here is the email address:
[email protected]
I would like to ask that those who see any bugs and feedback for improvement please email them above. I did mention TLRtheory's page with a link to how to optimize the game for the launcher and I also gave them the link to this page as well.

Excellent game!
I do not understand how they can make these games with excellent graphics for our Xplay!
And games like Horn (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31101815 # post31101815)
They are for TEGRA & ANDROID 3.2 onwards.

I wanted to start this thread, but didn't want be ungrounded, cause I downloaded few minutes before whole SD Files. And what's my opinion about that game? It's awesome, really. Big thumbs up for developers who made this possible, and big plus for Xperia Play optimization. Preety solid next game for our hardcore-gamers library. 100% worth buying!! . And very nice surprise with relase date, cause I was waiting for Rayman Jungle Run today only, and it was delayed actually (-.-). But now we have nice optimized game, with full of humour and more!!! Great!

Thanks for this just made me get it, its an awesome game like but i'v noticed when i run my character juggers a little bit every time i run,
Anybody else having this issue?

Can some one please tell me how much internal memory space does this game requires? I am not rooted and have trillions of games installed. The app is 14 MB, I somehow managed to get 37 MB internal memory free from initial 20 MB, but still says free up some space and try again. Looks like removing Dungeon Hunter 3 which is taking 24 MB is the only option.

Hrm... controls don't seem to work properly on "UnOfficial ICS Test Release Xperia Play 4.0.4". Anyone have any luck getting the d-pad and whatnot to work?

This game is awesome. I just love ports from the PC. They're >>>>>> than mobile games.

Love the way they used that touchpad space between the 2 circles as another hardware button (toggle the map) shows out of the box thinking

Sometimes CoD:BOZ would continue aiming/moving in a certain direction if you continued on to the hourglass from a touchpad but I don't think it was intentional

We intend to keep updating The Bard's Tale to address any issues that arise. Can you describe the issue that is happening with the controls on Xperia Play with ICS?

Classic arcade action shooter , addictive gameplay brought up to date
Retrobomb proudly presents...

AD 2463.
For the last 500 years, among the bleak and barren worlds that exist in deep space, mankind has expanded its horizons. The most suitable planets and moons near Earth have been terraformed, turning the once-inhospitable wastelands into habitable places.
Deeper and deeper into the universe mankind spread itself, until only a mere handful of humans would or could survive the journey. These distant worlds became industrial powerhouses colonized by few human beings. Although they had to forego the comforts of home, they still managed to scratch out a living in the newly-fertile lands.
For all he knew, man was alone in the vastness of space, until they came...
The G'neng.
You are given control of a clone army of Expendable units, dropped in one by one, rearmed to battle for the last human settlements which have been overrun by the G'neng, a malevolent bio-mechanical alien race.
You start close to home, on the front line of the invasion, and make your way across the galaxy through colonies which have been in the hands of the enemy for longer and longer, until you reach the enemy home-world.
or to put it simply...
* IF IT MOVES... SHOOT IT *
Attack the G'NENG and kill them all. Relentless waves of aliens in a fight to the death
* IF IT DOESNT MOVE... BLOW IT UP *
Nearly everything can be blown up. Large detailed worlds ready to be destroyed.
Beautifully rendered destruction effects, have never made destruction so satisfying
* CONSOLE QUALITY *
You will never believe your phone or tablet could ever do this.
* NO LOADING TIMES *
Bored of waiting for your games to load between levels. EXPENDABLE REARMED uses our unique streaming technology to all but remove loading times
* WEAPONS GALORE *
Loads of weapons including, Flame Throwers, Mini-Guns, Phantasm orbs, Alien weapons, SpiraCannons, Heat seaking missiles and the almighty railgun, all with 5 levels of powerups. Grenades too... including the insane destruction of the nuke-grenade.
* FABULOUS SOUND *
All the original sound effects and music

Pretty fun little game when I last played it on the Dreamcast. It certainly surprises me as I doubt it was in anyone's top ten must port DC games but a welcome addition nonetheless.

Yep thought the same. Still checking Sega for Crazy Taxi and Jet Set as would prefer them when they hit the store, but never say no to more Xperia Play support and classic ports
I think many developers that had games on older platforms that did not sell well think Mobile is there second chance. Take The Bards Tale for example that was not great for PS2 as there were far more advanced and sort after games people would rather buy. But look at it among Android games, its one of the greats. Sega also have seen the market for console retro on mobile by back porting there collection. Its like round 2 for developers to make $$$$ on there projects
I do think this is great for us as we get studio made quality titles at a budget price.

Oh Sega's been incredible to us, in fact I'd say they've been the best to us Play users out of any of the developers out there. I too search every day for Crazy Taxi, I love that game so ****ing much. I've had it on the ps2, gamecube, Dreamcast, PC, and, the only time I've played it on the go, the GBA (sure it was a god-awful port but I actually fell for it once I got the hang of it).
In the spirit of things my vote for next obscure Dreamcast port goes to either Carrier or Maken X

Have had an update from the developers and have added it to first post to notify you all.

Game is out now added link to first page.

That's great and all, but how is this different from the other twin stick shooters the Play Store is flooded with?

It's not a twin stick, it plays more like the 3d Contras actually and is quite fun. If you are sick of action/shooter games then you probably won't find much to like though.

Is there anything on the Xperia Play optimization? I didn't see it in the patch notes, and I wouldn't go for a game of this type if it doesn't have gamepad support.
Loved this game when it came out on PC ages ago, so I'm looking forward to some good news

Yes it's still coming. Notice they are still calling it launch version (with basic bug fixes) they want to make a big deal about gamepad support when ready. As it is not only going to be Xperia play optimized but also Moga and others too. Think they hate touch screens as there is no on-screen controls and feels like touch screen controls were an after thought. Will keep an eye out on our email as we should be getting some news from them soon

Good to know
I'll be keeping a close eye here for updates.

1.1.0 version released. Mentions the below in the release notes
- HID joypad support. Xbox360, PS3, Logitech etc supported natively
- MOGA gamepad support
No news on Xplay optimization. Have to download later.

its still coming.

lol, I predicted that Infinite Dynamis would be on your list.
All the Kemco fanatics are looking forward to that. I still need to get into Knight of the Earthends!

I emailed them about 15 minutes ago and this was their response, from a live person not a computer zombie. (well maybe..lol) Kemco is always so dang fast replying, always in minutes never days or hours even.
My email to them:
Hello,
I am a huge fan of your current games that are optimized for the Xperia PLAY. Just to name a few:
Eve of the Genesis
Aeon Avenger
Symphony of Eternity
Dark Gate
I am aware that Symphony of the Origin will be released soon in English but was wondering if you could tell me if there are any other games currently in development that will be seeing a release in English and or any older Kemco games that will see a translation from Japanese to English? I look forward to your future projects and do sincerely hope that you continue to support the Xperia PLAY. Thank you for your time.
Kemco Reply:
Dear customer,
This is KEMCO_GAMES customer support.
Thank you very much for your great support.
Unfortunately, we cannot say anything about future releases, but if you
want to be notified about future news, we have a Facebook page where you

I gotta say... at first that game looked painfully generic, but it turned out to have the most enjoyable class system I've seen on any RPG in a really long time! I ended up starting End of Aspiration late because I wanted to get the most out of Dark Gate.

Description
The next installment in the smash hit JRPG series, Alphadia II, is finally here! It’s time to unleash your energi once again and enjoy an immersive experience in a new and exciting world honed to perfection with a massive graphical overhaul, richly developed characters, and a streamlined battle system!
Alphadia II takes players on an unforgettable adventure 200 years after the events of the first Alphadia. Though after seemingly being lost to the inhabitants of the world, energi once again makes its appearance, and before long begins to drive opposing powers into an all out scramble to take control of this ever diminishing resource.
****
Those new to this exciting series can check out and also purchase the original Alphadia at the linked address below! 
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=kemco.execreate.alphadia
****
For troubleshooting, please contact us at [email protected]. While we may not be able to provide direct responses to individual users, know we will work our hardest to rectify any reported program issues.
Energi… the source of power interconnected with all living things.
In times of old, the human race erected a great civilization that thrived on the use of this power. However, some two centuries earlier, an incident known as the Energi Crisis erupted and led to the planet's energi being sealed away. As a result, people lost the mysterious powers they were once capable of harnessing.
The story now picks up with the protagonist, Leon, who has been assigned to his first solo mission by the Energi Guild. And there within his mind echo the words of the guildmistress when she stated: "Energi is the hidden power within each individual. It is the power of the heart and mind, and when purposefully sought, its true potential is unleashed."
■Nostalgia at its best! It’s like old-school meets new-school with perfect harmony!
Sporting a colorful and gorgeously detailed 2D battle system, individual break skills, elementals that combine to create more powerful energi skills, and even an auto-battle function, Alphadia II comes equipped with everything fans of traditional JRPGs could expect and caters to both the hardcore and casual gamer alike!
■Energi is the key!
Energi is derived from one of six unique elementals and has the power to not only grow, but lead players to the acquisition of new and more powerful energi skills. These energi skills then, in turn, play an integral role in attack, recovery, and even support. Furthermore, once two separate elementals have reached a certain level, they can be combined to create even more powerful energi skills!
■Can you handle it?!
Aside from a voluminous story, Alphadia II offers a new "Mission" system in which players are able to accept missions from the guild in order to receive valuable coins. These coins can then be exchanged for powerful equipment and other hard-to-get items later on. In addition to the main story and missions is a wealth of subquests, making this title truly the whole package. In fact, after finishing the game, there may be still much more to do than one might think!

Other then my brief lapse of faith I am sure that there will be other games from Kemco with XP support. Both Alphadia's, and Grinsi (I think thats how its spelled) are the onyl games from them not XP optimzed. So I would be surprised if this was the begining of the end.

I'm sure this isn't the end.
Alphadia, as well as a few others - are simply published by Kemco with different teams behind them. The previous Alphadia wasn't optimized for Xperia Play at all and this one seems to use the same game engine - so it's not really surprising.

Just noticed this today. I bought the Knight of the Earthends when it was released and noticed today that now there is a version for Xperia devices....... looks like we get som additonal stuff thats not in the regular versions.
ORiginal, version I own:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...a#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDIxMiwia2VtY28ud3dzLnZnYSJd
Xperia Only Version:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...GwsMSwxLDIxMiwia2VtY28ud3dzLnZnYS54cGVyaWEiXQ..
Edit: It now appears there is a special mode that can be unlocked where you can battle of Xperia users via our character in this game. Interesting........... Dont know if its online or simply local bluetooth/wifi.

I couldn't find any information regarding an online battle system; it appears they just added a new difficulty exclusive to Xperia devices but please link if you know anything more about the online mode.
Thanks for pointing this out btw, I've never tried a Kemco game, I have lost the will to play JRPGs (have tried playing Chrono Cross, Star Ocean: Second Story, FFIX, FFX, Grandia 2, etc. this year and haven't enjoyed any of them) but somehow I'm finding this game to be a lot of fun. First of all, it is ugly as sin and the scrolling effect when moving from one area of the screen to the next actually hurts my eyes. The story and characters are awful IMO. Beyond that, this game gets everything else right. Each character works very differently while still being completely customizable. The battles are quick and fun. The dungeons are designed well. The game has so far (only played for about two hours) been wonderfully linear and the map and quest-log systems make sure that I'm not endlessly searching for the next destination. Great find, completely worth 99 cents!

I thought I read it from Kemcos Facebook page. When I have a minute I'll see if I can find it and post it here

kk, thanks. Would be awesome if it was included but if so it's strange that they have completely hidden any information on it within the game itself.

Hopefully final build will still have option to use GameKeyboard, then we can use just like in RR2 .

Real Racing 2 never had XP controls while simultaneously released EA titles at that time were XPO. Not to mention the laggy nature of RR2 on the Xperia PLAY probably because it was developed by Firemint. However, EA's last racing title, NFS Most Wanted, proved that mobile racing game on the Xperia PLAY is not yet to die, in a short matter of time, that is.
Because of that, and because as I have seen on that dev diary, RR3 seems to have been developed by Firemonkeys (which also developed NFSMW2012), I AM DEFINITELY CROSSING MY FINGERS!
PS, I once bought RR2 for $0.99 during a sale. After a while I uninstalled it but when I thought of playing it again, it just disappeared from my apps list and checking through Google Play via PC shows it isn't compatible with my device. What a bummer.

I belive a very very early RR2 version (the old free version app with IAP) did have controls, it also did appear in the launcher in many versions after support was dropped. I know EA have had lots of bugs from day 1 with RR2 and still having them now to this day nearly 2 years on, maybe this is the reason for loss of support. putting this game aside every other EA racer was Optimized.

Where the hell did you get it from ?!

DiKeJ always had that ability to get games not yet released, show 'em on the Xplay launcher and make everyone jealous of him. Clever guy. Hehehe.
I'm excited already.

All I can say for you, that SD Files is veeeery big.

Re: Real Racing 3 (Due this month)
Can you comment on the graphics or not? If not, then that's fine. Just interested seeing as though the graphics look very impressive in trailers and the sort

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

Graphics is not as in dev diary, that's for sure. But still very good, and nicely optimized to work flawlessly, but still - SD Files could be smaller (noticed that on my tablet, it's even bigger! *There is Mali400 and 2x1.6GHz). Except that - maybe some fixes will come before official relase, that's all I can say . And stop writing me PM about apk -> I won't share anything, I'm honest with my friends .

There should be no ads appearing during gameplay. I'll be sure to have this issue taken care of for the next update.
Thanks for the heads-up.

Things are going well for us and we've been receiving lots of positive reviews both on Google Play from our users, as well as from the online Android communities.
We'd released an update recently with some bug fixes that take care of things like in-game ads getting through, some level selection issues, more missions, etc.
What we really need is more support in the North American region, so feel free to check the game out and spread the word!

This looks awesome! I will also try it out when I get home tonight.
Thanks!

Not available in my country!

You have a very good game here. I love the main character, the animations, and the cartoon-like graphics. The game is also pretty fun.
The huge negative is that you are asking $5.99 for the full game. That is way more than comparable games! I don't see you having much success at that price, sorry.

I think the game itself is unlocked.. 5,99 is if you want all the power ups and map to be unlocked without sweating it out yourself.. please correct me if I'm wrong.. this game is really additive plus the pocket change built in is really great.. it's good playing a game you like and even earning some tokens as you do it..
some suggestions for future updates:
- possibility to earn lives during game play (max 5 or 3)
- possibility to upgrade base weapon
- stronger and more challenging bosses
thanks devs for this amazing game!

KS Lin: Sorry if it's not available in your country. Are you in a country where Google Play does not support yet? We've made our game available to everyone, but perhaps there's an issue with that right now.
ehmjay: You are correct about the game coming free, fully unlocked. We do not believe that free games should be paid for unless they're classified as a demo, but that is not the case here. We are integrating multiplayer and rankings as a form of competition (more info to follow on the multiplayer mode ), and so if you do not want to play through all of the levels or grind your way to becoming a super hero with all of your powers, items, etc. you can instead purchase it all and save yourself a bit of time. We figure that the game will take at the very least a few hours to unlock everything you want if you're playing the most efficient path possible with purchases and missions. However this purchase is absolutely not necessary for anyone one to make, and you will not lose out on anything in the game by not purchasing anything with real money, ever.
As for your suggestions:
More lives: We've been hearing this a lot and while you can purchase armor in the shop which allows you to take 1 extra hit before dying, we might consider adding another layer of armor that can be purchased on top of that.
upgrades to base weapon: This is another idea that I've been thinking about, but haven't proposed yet to my partner. This is likely something that we will put into future updates, though, as enemies become stronger.
Stronger/challenging bosses: Of course! We have a lot more planned for our next couple of updates that we think will make the game MUCH more enjoyable and longer-lasting. Unfortunately I'm working out of country now and won't be home for 4 more weeks, so things are progressing a little bit slowly.
Thanks for all suggestions and support. I'll be sure to keep all update mentions posted here as they come!

I can't install the game. Play store says: (This app is not compatible with your Sony C6603)
i have the Xperia Z with Android 4.1.2 latest firmware.

kinda weird coz my brother with the same phone just installed it last night.. try clearing market data
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2

i cleared the play store data. but it still won't install. (besides i'm trying to download it using Chrome on my computer, not the play store since it won't show up there.
maybe because its a t-mobile xperia z? i have a "clean" firmware though

Love the game
This game seems really fun. Only been playing it today but it's rather addictive.
One note though. Maybe think about moving the power activation to the bottom of the screen as it's really hard to hit the buttons on my phone without
A) it being awkward to press, commonly have to press it a few times.
B) covering the entire screen with my giant hand to reach the button (then I die)
I have auto-fire turned on because on my phone my thumb takes up too much space to use the fire button.
Also, this isn't a problem, just an aesthetic:cowboy, but when you pause the game the background still moves. Maybe stop the scrolling when it's paused.

it might be that my bro hasn't updated yet to the latest firmware.. and he also has the international version.. but i really think it's weird coz the phones are the same.. u can try sideloading it but we have to ask for the devs permission first.. then I can take it from data/app for you..

No. Play Store is supported in my country, Myanmar. Yeah, maybe there might be some issues with Play Store. It's still saying that the app is not available in my country.

Your points are completely valid (I feel the same way), though it is much easier to play on a tablet, which I do. However that's no excuse to restrict everyone to the same configuration. We'd actually had the inventory at the bottom in between the two controllers prior to release, but it just looked more natural up at the top. I will make an issue of this for our next update, adding an option to either play with the inventory where it is now or at the bottom of the screen for easier access.
As for the background not stopping on pause, thanks for reminding me. I must have just gotten used to it but it was definitely a priority of mine to fix while we were working on the game.
