If there's one thing we love here at Android Police more than
anything, it's puppies. That usually doesn't come into play here,
though, so we often deal with our very close second favorite thing:
Amazingly playable, gorgeously rendered, ingeniously designed games. I
just so happen to have one of those right here.
Inertia Escape
Velocity is a game in which you play a futuristic scavenger collecting
what I can only assume are generic, mass produced future-machine parts.
Oh, yeah, you can also turn off gravity. I've been playing the game for
15 minutes now, so I'm pretty much a pro and feel like I owe it to you
to show you some video of me playing the game. You can feel free to
ignore that part where I die about 30 times in a row.
Apologies if the video seems choppy to you. I'm playing the HD version of the game and using Screencast simultaneously on a Nexus S. I probably should have recorded the standard definition version but, darn it, I make sacrifices for you guys!
Here are some pictures of the gameplay and menus as well to give you a better feel for the game:
As
you can plainly see, the game is just gorgeous. It plays smoothly even
with all the physics involved and the random crap that you can pull off.
This game would be a blast even if it used 8-bit graphics but it
doesn't; it uses stunning 3d graphics. The last time I was this
impressed with a game in terms of graphics and playability was Muffin
Knight and, until now, I thought that MK was untouchable. I think it's
safe to say that Inertia Escape Velocity has has touched Muffin Knight
with gusto.
Having said all of those awesome things,
it should be noted that, if you want to download it, there are four
different versions in the Android Market. There's Inertia Escape
Velocity, Inertia Escape Velocity Lite, Inertia Escape Velocity HD, and
Inertia Escape Velocity LiteHD. You can grab any one of them by clicking
somewhere in this complex matrix of Market links:
