Wed Apr 16, 2008 - 1:08 PM EDT - By Neal Martin




Astraware fans and fans of the Idigicon game Platypus rejoice. The game has come to the Palm OS and Windows Mobile platforms!

Platypus has been dubbed "The squishiest shoot-em-up ever" - hehe!

Based on the cult classic for PC and Mac, Platypus is a fast, frantic and fun side-scrolling arcade shooter with a difference - the entire game is made from clay! The vast continent-spanning city of Collosatropolis has finally reached the limits of its expansion, and tall buildings cover every available space...

You get to be a hero and save peaceful Mungola as you fly over squashy fields and trees, avoiding snowy mountain tops and protecting your planet. Enjoy 4 massive worlds, each with several challenging levels.

Platypus is optimized for play with 5-way or stylus and is available for Palm OS(R) and Windows Mobile(R) smartphones and PDAs, priced $19.95, from Astraware.

Stay tuned for my upcoming review of this fun looking game!
