In Electroplankton, art and music collide to create a wildly fresh interactive audio experience. In this freeform title featuring the striking visual style of Japanese artist Toshio Iwai, players poke, rub and draw on the touch screen to stimulate odd aquatic creatures and create their own music. Each of the 10 different types of Electroplankton features a completely different sound style, ranging from haunting melodies to head-nodding beats to funky Mario theme remixes. One Electroplankton even acts as a sampler, allowing players to record up to four sounds and layer them over drum loops. Players create new sounds and experiences








Back when the Nintendo DS first came out, one of the most frequently heard comments was that it was a surprisingly good system for first-person shooters. Between then and now, every developer on the face of the planet has seemingly forgotten that in favor of publishing a variety of touch-screen-dependent 2D games.
