For the uninitiated : Harrier Attack is a horizontal scrolling shoot, bomb and dodge affair. It's hard to believe now but the game caused some controversy when it was released in 1983 as British Harriers had helped win the Falklands War in 1982.
On a personal level, it was the first game I ever owned so has significant nostalgic value for me. There is currently only one similar game on Google Play and it's quite poor so I'm aiming to provide a faithful recreation of the original - with slightly better graphics, sounds and gameplay.
I'm targeting Android and browser. This will be my first Android game in landscape format using a virtual joypad.
