After announcing Cool Herders last month, publisher Alten8 is continuing its support for DS with an old school shoot-'em-up titled Cosmos X2, currently in development at Saturnine Games.

Taking its queue from side-scrolling shooters like R-Type, Cosmos X2 sees players gunning down hordes of enemy spaceships, navigating space debris and defending the outer colonies. Maps and radars are displayed on the bottom screen, while the top screen shows all the shooting action.

Alten8 is promising that Cosmos X2 and Cool Herders are just two of 10 titles it currently has lined up for DS, ranging from action, casual, RPG and "other styles", whatever they might be. It's also planning on publishing releases for both Wii and PC too.

Cosmos X2 is set for release some time this year
