Gameloft releases Cowboys and Aliens onto the Android Market

Gameloft has released another game onto the Android Market, this time in the form of a side-scrolling western themed game called Cowboys and Aliens. This particular game isn't one of Gameloft's usual 3D games and is actually a bit more of a simple game.

Cowboys and Aliens is a side-scrolling platformer where you play as Zeke, a cowboy who apparently will save the human race from an alien invasion using a six-shooter, lasso and a space rifle. You will be about to explore a wild west town, fight through a moving train and even invade the alien spaceship itself in your journey to rid the world of aliens before they can take it over.

Interestingly enough, this game isn't available on the Gameloft store or at least not yet. Currently it is only available on the Android Market which is slightly unusual for Gameloft to do. If you are interested in giving Cowboys and Aliens a whirl, you can download it off the Android Market for $2.99.
