Handmark has announced the cult Mac game Platypus is now available for the iPhone. You can get the game on the Apple App Store. Here is more info about this iPhone game:
Description
Based on the cult Mac classic from Idigicon, Platypus is a fast, fun side-scrolling arcade shooter with a unique difference - every tree, cloud, ship, and enemy was created from modelling clay - so explosions don't bang, they splat!
Defend peaceful Mungola from the invading Collosatropolans using only your trusty F-27 Platypus fighter plane. Shoot down the enemy ships, and collect fruit bonuses and a range of weapon power-ups to aid you in your quest!
Choose to control your Platypus using accelerometer-based tilt, or guide your ship with your finger across 4 massive clay areas each with several challenging levels.
Platypus has a fantastic music soundtrack which is inspired by classic Commodore 64 games, and will save your progress automatically when you exit.
Features:
* 20 challenging levels of squishy side-scrolling fun * 2 control methods - touch and guide or accelerometer-based tilt * 4 massive clay worlds to explore * A range of powerups to enhance your firepower and boost your score * Fantastic music soundtrack inspired by classic Commodore 64 games
