Anthelion 2 Public Beta

Most of you into games have probably have at least heard of the space shooter Anthelion if you haven't played it. The sequel, Anthelion 2, is on the way, and there's a public beta going on this week for those of you interested in checking it out:

"Two years ago wee rocked the mobile gaming scene with a game proving that devices were capable of realtime 3D graphics, and that shooting up bad guys from a far-away galaxy can be a lot of fun. The game was Anthelion, and it has been honored with a handful of awards and great reviews ever since. Now it's time to share a secret with you - for some time we've been quietly working on a sequel of even greater proportions.

Anthelion 2: Celestial Vigilance is our upcoming sequel to Anthelion. The game consists of even more action, easier controls, superior full-3D graphics, and VGA support. That's right! The game also runs smooth on VGA devices (such as the HP hx4700, the ASUS 730, Fujitsu's LOOX 720 and of course Dell's X50v and X51v), making full use of the fantastic displays and being the first 3D VGA game not dependant on HW acceleration.

The BEST part is that you can download the Public Beta version for free this week and try the game before it's released."

I'm looking forward to this one. I didn't think PDAMill could pull off creating a plot-driven space combat game on Pocket PCs, but they did a pretty decent job. You can read more about the new game by clicking on the title of this entry.
