This game is pretty fun. It's also on sale for $0.99 through the 19th.

MiniSquadron!

MiniSquadron! - Android app on AppBrain

(There's also a lite version if you want to check it out)

Here's a video review (it's for the iPhone version but the same)

YouTube - Mini Squadron iPhone App Review - AppVee.com

It's basically a 2d flying shooter. The controls work well.
 
Does anybody know how to quit this game? I get to the main menu screen, but when I press the Back button nothing happens!

yeah , this and fruit ninja doesn't have a quit button
had the same problem too, but awesome game XD

the lite version has a bug where you can't chose some planes levels, it doesn't exist in the full version

how come you don't control the plane like it shows you in the video? Is that multi touch?

You control it like in the video. The right thumb is to fire. On the lite version I use it is on the top right. Which is kinda annoying
 
hey guys

The demo worked fine for me - loved it - but the full game keeps force closing? Can't get it to load once.

Uninstalling and refunding :(

HTC Hero
 
I played the demo for about 2 minutes and bought the full thing. Fun game, I was spoiled by the 40 or so awesome games I had on my iPhone. I hope more of this quality keep coming to the Android.
 
Bought this game before the price changes and I wanted to see if anyone has figured out how the multi-player 1v1 over wi-fi works? Can you find and play with friends that have the game? Hoping someone has tried this out. Its a fun game once you turn the music off.
 
Anyone know how to contact them? I'm now not getting sound effects on the droidx, and the only way I can see to exit is hitting the home key.

There should be a quit button, and of course sound effects should work properly.

Other than that, the game is well worth a buck!
 
This game is loads of fun, I've honestly been enjoying it a lot more than either Angry Birds or Fruit Ninja. For $0.99 you'd be crazy not to purchase it.

Only two minor problems I have run into. As the others have said you cannot quit the game. Plus on the HTC Desire in the lite version you cannot select the bottom row of planes. Seems to be fixed in the full version though.

this bug where you cannot select a row (or some rows) seems to be on all phones (had it on my galaxy S too)

but it doesn't exist in the full version

the game did get stuck on me twice so far (once was after I destroyed the last plane and had to replay the level from the last wave)

but overall it's great
 
This game rocks. One question though: is it possible to unlock more than 2 planes in the demo? I have the stock yellow one and the blue one under it.

If so, how?
 
I bought this last night. I saw it either on the Market or on AppBrain. I tried the demo and thought it was fun. Then I saw it was only $0.99 for a limited time so I purchased it. If they don't raise the price that was a good marketing line to sucker me in! ;)

I just don't like that you fly back and forth on the same screen. Because of this it gets to be tedious. I'd rather have it continuously scroll. And I think the music is kind of dumb and I don't think it really fits the game at all. Those are my two minor nitpicks. And I hope they add targets on the ground that you can shoot or the addition of a bomb would be cool.
 
I have a ?, are the guns supposed to stop from time to time? If I keep shooting at least one time a level I have to press the fire button a few times to get it to start shooting again. Sometimes I have to wait a good 5 or so seconds to get it to shoot.


Droid 1, rooted with UDX8 if that makes any difference.

mine doesnt stop
 
I've purchased the game as well. Great game and great price (for the moment). Kinda hilarious trying to blow up other planes with classical music playing in the background :D
 
I always have to hold the fire button down.. I don't get autofire turned on at all.

Seriously, we need to contact the authors about these issues.
