Space Out (Mobile)

2002–2005 · J2ME mobile

The phone version of Space Out: two pale jellyfish-like aliens with trailing tentacles and several small green blobs descend through a starfield over a mauve planet surface, with the player's green craft below and a score of 0 at top right.

Mobile port of the desktop Space Out shooter for J2ME devices. Demo for the J2ME mobile game programming book. The fixed-shooter format translated well to small screens; the bigger challenge was managing the small (~512KB) JAR size limit imposed by most carriers of the era.
