There always has been prior mentions that GLWG sorta worked with Xperia PLAY's d-pad. This update makes it official though! Shows up in the Game Launcher and everything!
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rubicon.dev.glwg
CURRENT VERSION: 1.1.1
What's in this version:
1. Point release with additional support for Xperia PLAY devices.
2. Changed description text for Standard Campaign
3. Added support for Vizio tablets and all devices with Marvell chipsets.
Xperia PLAY's game support just looks more and more awesome by the moment.
The game is a direct rip off of advance wars for GBA
if you never played it I suggest checking it out.
Tho I'm really not mad because I like both versions / both spins on it.
Xperia Play optimized? Sorry but this "optimization" is a total joke...
You still have to use touchscreen to move your units, camera moves horribly when pressing dpad (left arrow to move camera to the bottom right?? WTF?!). You can just zoom in and out with triangle and square and can rotate the camera with the triggers...
Surely "great work" in optimizing this game -.-
Sent from my R800i using xda premium
a lil bit old news, this is optimized already even in 1.1 version, romcio is right this is much playable if you will use touchscreen..
d-pad mapping is just sick as hell
not worth the "Xperia PLAY Optimized" tag
great game though

The [console name] Wars strategy series has been long-running in Japan, though our first taste came on the GBA. In fact, the developer (Nintendo's own Intelligent Systems) is also responsible for the very similar Fire Emblem turn-based strategy RPG series and everything from Final Fantasy Tactics to Front Mission is based on those. They both started in the 8-bit Nintendo Entertainment System/Nintendo Famicom days! Anyway, my point is that nearly any turn based strategy game is inspired by the Wars series and nearly any SRPG is inspired from the Fire Emblem series.
Even when they are late to the party, like they were when they made their Real-Time Strategy games Pikmin and Pikmin 2, there were others blatantly "inspired" by them, like Code Masters' Overlord and Overlord II.

I would say those games you mention are similar to advance wars
with advance wars you start with some money and build a unit to attack the other team
you have fog of war usually to make the game scary when playing with your mates on a train ride
1 person would get the device. make a new unit and move it
then pass it to their mate and they would do the same thing
till eventually you would run up on them and have a full on war
it was a crazy game
and this great little war is basicly using the whole same template with fog of war and money and units, even the grid system.
so ya i would say advance war is a pioneer in that respect
being able to play with ya mates on a train passing the device back and forth
Hello everyone
We've created a game for Android OS based on Unity Game Engine. The game itself is rather simple, gameplay is inspired by the father of all arcade games - PONG. We're aware of the fact that the Arc Ball won't conquer Google Play and we won't be so successful as Rovio, but the creating process of our game took a few days and working on Arc Ball was a valuable experience for us.
Our game offers mechanics which are characteristic for arcade games. You can curve the ball accordingly moving the paddle just before the ball touches it, you can post your highest score and check it in application itself or on our website (top 15 scores). You can also play against your friend on one phone (CPU has three difficulty levels).
In future updates we want to create more diverse gameplay. Currently we're trying to implement mechanics from another classic game - Breakout.
Please share your opinion and leave a comment (here and on Google Play). It will help improve our game and make future releases better.
Unfortunately I can't post links, so please paste them into your browser and delete space before com:

I was about to post about it.
Anyway, Your post is against XDA-Dvelopers.com rules.
Please delete the warez link and add the Google play link.
Wow, it seems really nice! An HD remake of a great classic! Is it optimized with touchpads?
Just brought this for my Xperia Z and must say it is now my favourite fighter on the store. Don't get me wrong I love the classic 2D fighters as it's what I grew up on, but this HD remake feels more like an up to date made for mobile quality title and not the original I had and loved.
BTW - What did the game cost you? (anyone that brought it legally).
It states the first 2 weeks it's on offer but it cost me over £4 UK (around $6 - 7 US I belive), that would make this an expensive game for Android when it increases further if this is the proper sale price.
Just some info to add to the OPs link:

Has anyone else on Gingerbread noticed that you are able to move up and down the main menu using the left touchpad? Nothing else works at all, just that. Very strange.
It runs pretty well on my xplay
rom xelite gamer (last version) , kernel lupus gb v12 @1,6ghz
Too bad the controls won't work though.
It's definitly not soul blade, I'm not sure if it's really like soulcalibur 1. I haven't played this game for too long.
Soul Edge (ソウルエッジ Sōru Ejji?) is a 1995 3D arcade fighting game developed by the team Project Soul and published by Namco. It is the first installment in the Soul series of weapon-based fighting games. An upgraded and expanded version of the game was ported to the PlayStation later that same year. Namco chose to use the title Soul Blade in Europe, North America and Australia. The game was a commercial and critical success and was followed by a several sequels, beginning with Soulcalibur in 1998.(wiki)

nothing new ^^ I know about this stuff, the game soulcalibur on android is not soulblade/edge
I have played soulcalibur1 on my friend's dreamcast long time ago so I can't say if it's really this games graphics.
All I can say is that it has better graphics than soulblad but worse than soulcalibur2
Looks very nice, I hope I can play it smoothly with no lags at all.

great game
You've made a great game. I was surprised when I realized it was actually an indie game, cause it looks very professional. Yet I think you could have made sound effects better. Anyways, if you plan on making more games, especially flash games, plz contact me I would love to publish it and make a review on my monkey games portal monkeygamesworld.com. Also I might be interested in sponsorship. good job!

Thanks for the review and I'm glad you enjoy the game! Nice to see a website dedicated to monkey games :laugh:
The sound effects was made from whatever I could record/mix myself combined with free stuff from the internet, unfortunately I never had any budget to spend on it. The game was made so it also should be playable on some low end phones when it was first released in 2013. Playing too many low compressed sound effects with music at the same time was a performance issue on some devices back then, perhaps not such a big issue any more.
Cheers!
Great game !!! Very good idea and very playable.
But I notice an issue when I press on back button on device, there show up popup "Do you really want to quit?" , next press home button , and next back to the game , there are two visible popups and one of them I can't hide. Sorry for my english

Ah! Thank you for pointing that out! It is now fixed and it will be included in the next update for Android.
Hello XDA !
I’m Jessica and I’m currently working for Nemoid Studio as Community Manager and also Level Designer. Based in Lyon in France, we are an independent development studio that produces mobile games.
Some of you might remember our successful 2010 2D runner game Dino Rush.
I have a very good news to share : Dundy and his friends are coming back in a new multiplayer racing game!
Dino Rush Race is a free multiplayer racing game where you must go faster than your opponents over fifty funny levels. Here, you will play against asynchronous players that we have recorded and called ghosts.
Eating fruits and using bonuses will give you more energy, more speed to outrace your opponents ! You never die, but beware, isn’t that simple. Many obstacles will be standing in your way to victory that you will have to dodge (some flying predators, melting lava … nothing to worry about!).
Want more ? Thanks to our new level editor, you will be able to share your talent with all the players and break new world records ! (yes, like Geometry Dash). The most popular levels of the community can even be added into our game. We can‘t wait to see yours !
To give you an idea of our game, this is the trailer :
The game is currently in open beta.
For iOS players, request and invitation on Dinorush.com (and get a TestFlight invitation immediately ! (or send me your email by PM to get added manually). The game is also available on the App Store for pre-order !
For the Android players, the game is available on the Play Store.
We’d love to hear from you, especially if you previously played Dino Rush.
Please give it a try and share your feedback !
Jessica from Nemoid Studio
