RetroMaze

RetroMaze is a multiplayer shoot-em-up. Pitch yourself against the ai in single player mode, then take on your friends in multiplayer mayhem.
Drop mines, place walls and collect power ups to outsmart your opponent.
RetroMaze will automatically find other players over a local WiFi or Bluetooth network.
Play over 30 different mazes, each with a unique strategy and game play.
The scoring system works on two levels, a direct hit count for the current game, and a player rating based on the number hits given or taken over the last hour of game play.
Your player rating persists from one game to the next and is shown to your opponents when they join a game.
Your player rating is a direct indication of your skill at RetroMaze.
