Yu Suzuki's New Social iOS/Android Game is a Pirate Gun Shooter #1

Lock if old.



Quote:
The mystery mobile title from Shenmue creator Yu Suzuki has at last been revealed. Have a first look at Gan! Gan! Kaizokudan (Gan! Gan! Pirates).

Gan! Gan! Kaizokudan combines gun shooting with social elements. You'll blast away at enemies like in an arcade-style gun shooting game. You'll also be able to team up with other players for cooperative play, as well as competitive play where you see who can first defeat a powerful boss for instance.

Famitsu.com reported on this game in a big feature about a series of games for the new "entag!" social gaming site. The site was unable to play the game, but said to picture an arcade-style gun shooting game, with the gun replaced by touch controls. The social aspects can be thought of as being similar to those of the air ship battalions in Mobage's Final Fantasy Brigade.

Gan! Gan! Kaizokudan will be released on through Mediano for Android and iOS in September. The game is free-to-play.


Thanks to our sexy friends at Andriasang

Will buy to support him.

My heart bleeds for you... Yu. From Shenmue to this. Well, can't say I didn't do my part.

How the mighty have fallen.

Not that this won't be a good game, but compared to his previous works it's just depressing.

I have no faith this will turn out to be successful, but... good luck, Suzuki. Sounds fun.

(Of course it's no Shenmue 3.)

The only guy coming close to Miyamoto. I hope there will be a real comeback one day, mobile games just don't cut it for me.

Sounds to me like he's returning to his forte: arcade style gameplay.

It's been a sad, sad trajectory for Suzuki.

My only hope he is finding some source of fun/creativity with these ventures but it must be a far cry from the heights and developmental freedom he once had.

So much complaining and hand wringing when in all actuality it will likely have more actual gameplay than shenmue
