Revenge of the Yolk Java Mobile is a version of the game made in 2010 for Java on mobile devices. Unlike the other versions, this one wasn't made by InterAction studios, and it wasn't made on the Ultra VGA Engine. It was outsourced to a company called MobilityZone.

Resolution[]

The game has three available versions, one with the resolution 320x240, one with 240x320, and one with 360x360. Some devices such as the Samsung Star II (GT-S5260/GT-S5263/GT-C6712) are still compatible with the game despite the resolution, but it activates the digital keypad, which is somewhat inconvenient. The digital keypad covers the remainder of the screen, so if the resolution of the device is 240x400, the 80 remaining pixels are for the keypad. This only works if the game is touchscreen compatible, which it should.

Differences[]

The opening crawl looks much more simple.
Tips unique to this version were introduced.
- Safe Zones are the safest place to stay.
- Danger Zones are the most dangerous places to stay. Staying there might cost you a life!
- A tip that informs you about movement buttons.
A shorter, much lower quality version of the Main Theme is used. It's the only music included in the game.
Cutscenes are absent except for moving between chapters.
The Milky Way looks different.
No music is playing during the mision.
Much of the enemy movement has been simplified.
The Hero can only move in four directions.
Ion Blaster's bullets are spread out in a horizontal line, and it doesn't have a max power level.
Atomic Powerups only give 100 points.
Plasma Rifle and Utensil Poker are left out of the game.
Lightning Fryer always fires straight.
The max power level of the Laser Cannon is broken and makes you unable to fire anything.
On the Asteroids waves, the animation for the asteroids is choppy.
Asteroids can only arrive from five directions (left, right, down, diagonally down-left and down-right). This also applies to Meteor Storm.
The game is started with 5 Missiles.
A Game Over will remove all of your Missiles.
Only one variation of the Single Chicken Burger is present.
Egg Ships and Rogue Missiles aren't present, and their waves were replaced (Egg Drones from above, two extra instances of The Chicken 'Wave'!, another Pop till they Drop).
The progress bar on multi-part bosses, such as the Mother-Hen Ship or the Sweater Chicken, counts all of their health from the beginning. The only exception is the Yolk-Star™, after the first phase is defeated.
Food does not rotate.
Coins have a completely different sprite and use a different sound effect.
The aim of the U.C.O.s is much more restricted.
The Mother-Hen Ship has less phases.
The Egg Drones fire periodically.
Bonus Challenge Chests use the asteroid destruction sound.
The UFOs use the player explosion sound when destroyed.
Terminator Chicken waves contain less chickens and now there can be only half as many chickens on-screen.
The Clones boss fight has been replaced with a repeat of the Twins.
The last Chicken Square Dancing (Wave 118) has groups of 4x4 instead of 5x4 Chickens.
On the Yolk-Star™ battle, no terminator chickens appear.
- Its second phase has as much health as the first one.
- It can only drop Atomic Powerups.
- The Yolk follows you around using terminator AI.
After finishing the game, you get a game over.
No Unlockables are present.

Trivia[]

This port's quality is notoriously sub-par, but InterAction studios allowed its release due to the mobile market being small at the time. The same company attempted to make a port for iOS as well, but the project was cancelled after a year due to the same quality issues. It led to InterAction studios developing the later mobile ports on their own.
