Excuse my absence, dear readers. Us here at PMG have been working on games, games, games for the last few weeks and I'm pleased to bring you info on a brand new game as well as an update on Nerdzilla.
Our newest game has been submitted and we're anticipating its arrival in iTunes perhaps this weekend (fingers crossed, no pun intended). The game is called Finger Sling and I'm tempted to describe it as castle defense although that would be sorely misleading. You've got a ball in the center of the screen being bombarded by other balls all trying to push it outside of the ring it's sitting it. You've gotta keep this from happening by slinging YET ANOTHER ball at oncoming projectiles. The game is all about reflexes and smooth game play, something I'm sure you'll be able to get into. In fact, some people have already gotten into it. From one previewer:
"...A unique gameplay experience which is reminiscent of the early iPhone games that made the platform so enjoyable with its intuitive touch control interactivity."
We here at Pocket Monkey love this game and we're willing to bet the money we've invested in it that you'll love it too. But in case you need a little more persuasion, here are some pictures and even A VIDEO for your curious eyes:
And pictures!
Of course, Finger Sling comes equipped with OpenFeint so you can unlock achievements enhancing your game play experience. So be on the look out for this game. If enough of you are curious about it, we may even do an opening weekend promotion/discount. Sound good?
Now, I told you I'd keep you updated on Nerdzila. We got a call from Apple saying that they don't promote violence in a school setting (they must not have ever been part of a hazing fraternity). SO we've gotta change up our style! Therefore, I'm posing this question to you intelligent game lovers: If you could slap nerds in a non-school-related-environment, where would you slap them?
I'll also leave you with this next question: HAVE ANY OF YOU PLAYED THE NEW LEFT 4 DEAD 2 YET?! HOW WAS IT?! I definitely plan on crashing CEO Kris Jones' house to play that game night and day. Unless you all tell me its terrible. In which case, I will still play it out of sheer loyalty.
