Super-talented mobile developer OrangePixel has launched a new game on Android – Stardash. It is basically a speed-running remake of the Mario style of platform game, presented in a lovely, retro, monochrome, Game Boy style.
Stardash has OpenFeint social integration, an Xperia PLAY control system, 40 levels at the moment and you press right a lot and jump over things. We like doing that.
Runs perfectly on our phone, too. Stardash is on the Android Market here and is free to download, thanks to a few adverts on the between-level info screens. If you HATE ADVERTS there’s a paid alternative for £1.38 or thereabouts.

Motorola’s latest flagship dual-core Android monster is a massive, original powerhouse, that’s a big improvement on previous MOTOBLUR mobiles – but still isn’t a total winner.
A slim and glamorous phone from Sony Ericsson, with the sharpest display around. It’s no powerhouse and the screen’s not the biggest out there, but we don’t mind. Because it’s cute.
LG’s first glasses-free 3D phone is a heavy, fat monster, with a clever 3D effect that works rather well. As a smartphone, though, it’s heavy and underwhelming.
A very shiny thing from Sony Ericsson, with a 3.7″ screen and Android 2.3.3 inside. But is it exciting enough to win fans in today’s spec-obsessed market? Can man live on one core alone?
INQ’s Android phone is an interesting “boutique” piece of hardware, packed with unique interface customisations that go far beyond the headline Facebook integration. We like it a lot.
