A much smaller Tripper approaches

Just a day after mentioning its PS3 remake Astro Tripper, PomPom Games has uploaded a new video teaser for the iPhone version of the original Space Tripper, which I will now more correctly note shares far more in common with classic Commodore 64 game Uridium than it does with Defender.

Though the stony silent video doesn't give away much, so far as I can tell the game will be of the auto-fire variety, controlled by the iPhone's tilt-sensor, and the ship flipped with a tap on the screen, all of which is looking quite elegant.
