Shmup specialist Cave is working on a new title for Windows Phone 7, the Japanese developer has announced.

Details are scarce, but the studio development head Makoto Asada revealed that the game is currently 20 to 30 per cent complete via its official blog, as translated by Andriasang.

No title, gameplay details or screens were offered, but Asada stated that it's an original game rather than a port of an existing title.

Cave's past work includes bullet hell cornerstones Espgaluda and DoDonPachi. Its most recent launch was an iOS release for furious side-scroller Deathsmiles.
