So what is it all about? Well it is a run along jumping over obstacles, shooting stuff, collecting stuff, great fun kind of thing. Here is the game description from the Play Store:

Gunslugs is the most chaotic, fun, arcade action game you’ll find on any platform! Non-stop action from the guys behind Meganoid, Meganoid 2 and Stardash !
– We grabbed a bunch of expendable action hero’s from the 80s and we made them team up as the Gunslugs to fight the war against the always evil Black Duck Army. Can you save the planet? maybe even the universe?

The developers have included support for a range of gamepads. So I’m looking forward to trying this on my Archos Gamepad. Especially as there is only a few onscreen controls to use. There is a free version for Android if you want to give this a try. Just head over to the link below.
