There is a new game coming to Android from Red Fly Studios called Inertia: Escape Velocity which is a physics-based action platformer. You will be use the game’s unique gameplay mechanic to manipulate gravity in order to float and glide through each level, navigating around force fields, barriers, and other obstacles, while collecting space debris for points.
Inertia: Escape Velocity offers up a similar game to Cordy but with a whole new set of gameplay mechanics including the ability to defy gravity in order to avoid obstacles and collect debris on the way to the stage’s exit. It looks like a pretty fun game so far and it does come complete with some great 3D visuals as well.
Inertia: Escape Velocity Features:
- Physics-based platformer: employ a unique anti-gravity element to float, glide, and bounce around deep space environments to collect space junk for ship repair and to unlock new planets.
- Console gameplay on mobile devices: with high-quality graphics, intense and challenging levels, and a unique gameplay mechanic, core gamers will appreciate a console gaming experience on a portable platform.
- Control settings: the game uses on-screen controls for movement, jumping, and gravity control, but players can also opt to use challenging “tilt” controls that turn the entire device into the controller.
- Inferno levels: for even more of a challenge, players can try their hand at these high-difficulty versions of each level.

You will have the option to use the on-screen controls to play this game or you can always opt into using the tilt controls using your devices accelerometer in order to add even more challenge to the game play itself. Still currently under development, although it’s near the end of development, this game is slated for a release sometime this December 2011. It will be available on the Android Market for $1.99 and part of the sale’s proceeds will be donated back to the The Guildhall at SMU (Southern Methodist University) which were responsible for the original Inertia game.
