With the recent release of Hydro Tilt [App Store], my immediate association was with Archer Maclean's Mercury for PSP.
I bought Hydro Tilt [App Store], and although it is good, for me, it doesn't have the visual 'polish' that Mercury boasts.

I'm a secret lover of Archer Maclean's Mercury, and would really like to see Ignition Entertainment bring the title to iPhone,
as I think it would suit the accelerometer control system really well.

Would anyone else like to see the official Archer Maclean's Mercury arrive on iPhone and iPod touch?
I personally think it'd be a sellout.

Great idea

I hadn't even thought of it until your post, but it seems like it is a great fit for the iPhone!

Wow, that looked amazing. I'm sure it would be great on an iPhone as well.

Yeah, I only thought of it as Hydro Tilt was released yesterday.
I've just e-mailed the dev and will keep you up on any replies I receive back.

I'm Arron, and today I write to you to inquire about the original Archer Maclean's Mercury title for PSP.

With the iPhone and iPod touch carrying built-in accelerometer controls for tilt based navigation, the platform is seeing a wide variety of tilt based puzzle games released onto it.

The most recent being Hydro Tilt.
(http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=299770095&mt=8).

Now this title works on the same principle as your licensed product Mercury. Taking this as a sort of technical demo, Would you be able to, or do you have any future plans to port or develop a touch based version of Archer Maclean's Mercury?

I'm a huge fan of the franchise and being the owner of an iPhone 3G,
would love to see the title ported sometime in the future.

Cheers,
Arron

If you'd like to see the title on the iPhone and iPod touch sometime in the future yourself,
Ignition Entertainment are reachable at:
