A gameplay video of 2360: Battle for Cydonia from BriskMobile Inc was just posted to the TouchArcade forums.
BriskMobile Inc intends to send it in for approval by the end of the month, and they describe the game:
Just wanted to give you a sneak peek of our soon to release game 2360: Battle for Cydonia. We plan to submit it by end of month. With an innovative control mechanism (you use line drawing techniques to move your robot and touch and drag techniques to separately control each arm’s weapons – all supporting multi-touch), mission based levels, and lots of weapon upgrades, we’re confident Battle for Cydonia will challenge and impress you.
Here’s the video:
It looks crazy addictive and a ton of fun – we’re anxious for its release!
F is for Falling, by How I Hate The Night, is a whimsical game where you are dropped out of a plane and you have to fall as long as you can without hitting any of the obstacles. As described in his TouchArcade post:
My next game – F is for Falling, was submitted today. It’s a simple avoidance game, the goal is to fall as long as you can without dying. Your player, a stunt man, jumps out of a plane wearing a special oxygen tank, right above an airshow. Dodging Airplanes, Hot Air Balloons, Helicopters, Rocketmen and Hang Gliders, not to mention all the birds, can you make it all the way back to earth without causing your oxygen tank to explode?
There are a several obstacles you must evade on your way down:
Birds – From small birds to whole flocks of birds Hang Gliders – These guys fly back and forth and just get in your way. Hot Air Balloons – Slow and big, watch out! Planes & Helicopters – These are as fast as they are deadly, they will CUT YOU UP! Rocketmen – Small, fast but out of control, the gas tanks are fragile and will explode when you hit them. Missles – It wasn’t very smart to schedule missle tests during the air show, but they did! Watch out for these, they are rigged to explode on impact.
There are two also types of clouds you can use to your advantage, regular clouds and thunder clouds:
Flying through a regular cloud will slow your descent.
Thunder clounds will speed things up.
And of course, here’s a short gameplay video to pique your interest!

Found this little tidbit on the Touch Arcade forums regarding Zenonia 2 and a bit on VANQUISH: The Oath of Brothers from Gamevil.
Gamevil, the developers of Zenonia and Baseball Superstars 2010, have revealed some new information for Zenonia 2: The Lost Memories, and has also released a new trailer for their upcoming artistic action RPG Vanquish: The Oath of Brothers.
The original Zenonia, launched in May of this year, was quite a hit among iPhone and iPod touch gamers because it brought a “real” RPG experience to the platform. Now the developers intend to expand on that experience in Zenonia 2: The Lost Memories.
The game will feature four distinct characters to choose from, a Paladin, Shooter, Magician, and Warrior, instead of the single character you were stuck with in the original. The Magician and Warrior classes will be capable of attacking from a distance thanks to their range skills. Zenonia 2 will also feature three levels of difficulty, which should help the game appeal to newcomers and veterans. Playing on the Hard and Hellish difficulties will allow you to obtain unique loot and access a hidden boss stage. The game will also be receiving new terrain effects, such as water, snow, and ice, that will add a slight twist to the gameplay.
Speaking of twists, Zenonia 2 will sport asynchronous online multiplayer, which means you will be able to download and compete against your friends’ character. Gamevil has’t exactly explained how this system is going to work, so you will just have to wait until Zenonia 2’s release in March to find out.
Little is known about Vanquish: The Oath of Brothers at this point, except that it will be an “artistic action RPG” and that it will be hitting the App Store in late February. But how can’t you get excited for another action RPG from the creators of Zenonia?
Not too much about VANQUISH, but asynchronous online multiplayer has interested and perplexed me. More as Gamevil releases more info!
GAMEVIL has recently released the trailer for their up and coming game – VANQUISH: The Oath of Brothers.
No gameplay footage, but you can see a small sneak peek at 0:26 of the video, and it looks like a very stylish game! I look forward to more developments of this, and hopefully we can bring you a sneak peek if we get invited into the beta!
