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)

It's basically a 2d flying shooter. The controls work well.

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

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.
