MiniSquadron is an action flying game developed by supermono limited and brought to your Android device by OpenFeint. Yes, another one. The flying part of the game is executed in 2D. Controls are pretty common: left thumb controls directions and right thumb shoots. You control your planes direction in most intuitive manner possible, by pointing out an angle of it’s flight. Don’t fly too high tho – you may stall.
In single-player mode you have to defeat 12 waves of incoming rival planes on 8 levels. But there are more targets than that, there are occasional enemies on the ground. It may sound boring but with different types of weapon it’s actually fun, you just fly around and shoot everything that moves.
Awesome, vivid game graphics, variety of enemies, weapons, all that supported by classical music (quote from description by developer: “Rock out to the genius of Mozart, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky and other dead composers”)Â give a great playtime experience. The game amazed me with its addictiveness and re-playability. By completing levels you unlock new planes that are different in their speed, durability, reload time and control (turning angle). Every 3 waves of the level you are passing checkpoint and can change your plane to different one, which is quite nice.
You can also zoom-out to see enemies approaching even sooner – which is quite cool considering the game supports local multi-player (Wi-Fi). OpenFeint, as always, brings online scoreboards and challenging your friends. Overall the game is the best in its genre, and will provide you with vivid and never boring game-play. Price $1.99
