Aces High running on an Android phone

Here's a short clip of Aces High running on my phone, a mid-range Motorola, with sound:

This is the full game, not a separate mobile version. It has the same terrain and vehicles, with touch controls on screen. The trees are SpeedTree forests, which we've ported to run on phones.

There's still plenty to do: wind in the trees, shadows, and a better frame rate on phones. But it's coming along nicely.

Very cool.
Can planes work too?

[hitech]

They could but dogfighting on phone is almost impossible, so my plan was bombers only flown by auto pilot.

How much are you going to charge per month for a phone version of the game

I like it a lot. Get more people in the game. GVs are a lot of fun and would be super easy to operate on a phone or tablet.

I could see bombers working. And manning guns while the bomber formation auto-flies to a target maybe. That would be really cool and it would add targets for fighters too.

Are the players on the phone going to be playing against player in the AH online version..or is this all separate..

I think it's going to be really cool.

You know just getting ahead of myself and everything, but I can imagine a simplified interface for bombers where you could preset a Target before you even take off. And basically have the plane follow a very basic route that you've made to the target. So all you have to do is basically sit in the Gunner position or the bombardier position.
