Who said the Windows Phone 7 isn’t popular among the developer community? Here’s the Shoot 1UP Xbox Live Arcade shooter game ported to Windows Phone 7 thanks to the XNA Game Studio 4 Framework.
This is a ’smoke test’ of the upcoming Shoot 1UP release for the Windows Phone 7 platform. We’re currently targeting to release the game with the launch of the phone.
The test loads all game art appropriately and constantly loops the game to check for any memory leaks. The computer randomly positions the ships, fights enemies, and goes through menus, all at 10x speed. The actual level lengths are much shorter (the number of waves is lower than the final game) but the unique enemies per level is accurate.
The graphics in the final game will improve and be uniquely tuned for the Windows Phone 7, in addition to a special game play modes just for that platform, and a new playable ship.
