    Possible new Cave announcement



    The announcement will be made when it achieves 4000 retweets, apparently, but it'll be made anyway on the 9th.
    Hmm, new game or another Steam announcement?

    This is interesting, IIRC Cave decided to stop development of shooters for arcades and consoles to focus on mobile games and/or panchinko slots. It'll also be interesting to see what they come up with with all the old developers now in other studios.

      I think they already said they'll be announcing the next game for Steam on the 26th, didn't they?

        I thought so, and this doesn't look like anything to do with a previous game. Plus, 'bancho' in the URL- no idea what that is...

          I think that is what they said, but I seem to remember something recently about possibly doing a new game through crowdfunding. I'm sure it was Cave, but I can't remember where I read that. Could be an announcement along those lines maybe.

            Banchou should translated as "boss" or "gang leader". Maybe they're ditching lolis for burly men.

              Ugh, it's the next DDP game, Ichimenbanchou, but it's for smart phones and free to play.

                Ergj, talk about disappointment. Looks like they are going to recycle art from SaDaiOujo too.

                  Can't say I was expecting much, so no great loss here. That, and I actually thought "DDP Maximum" was pitched just right for smartphones, so I might end up liking this.

                    The smart phone versions of their games are superb, look forward to this. Had a lot of joy from DDP, ESPgaluda II & Bug Panic on 1st Gen iPad.

                      New Cave shooter new available on iOS! Dodonpachi Ichimenbanchou. Free to buy with in game currency to upgrade your craft. Not real money purchases I should point out. Little advert videos at the end of each level.
                      Plays very much like you would expect but doesn't seem to have the usual donpachi spread shot and laser. Typically responsive controls as with all of Caves iOS games. Need to sink a bit more time into this.

                          I guess previous Android releases didn't do well enough to justify the effort.

                          On the new game front it seems like your meter on the left has replaced the old chain meter. It fills and empties as your chain builds and breaks. I might be mistaken but it also seems like you need to finish the level with a certain percentage in the meter to unlock the next level.
                          The post game see you click on a random card to watch an advert to claim some more in game credit so you can level up the various aspects of your aircraft.
                          Anyone else tried this on their iPad yet? I'm finding the menu screen to be quite unresponsive for some reason.

                            I'll give it a bash on iPad tonight, worth a try as it's free.
