Have a careful look at the source code for this game Replica Island: http://code.google.com/p/replicaisland/
Specifically the all the Objects that extend: http://code.google.com/p/replicaisland/source/browse/trunk/src/com/replica/replicaisland/AllocationGuard.java When the game is running almost no dynamic objects are allocated, they are mostly pre-allocated and held on "free" lists and re-used. This is to try and avoid a GC during a level which could seriously affect the feel of the game. It also gives finer control of the amount of memory used in the game.
