Griptonite Games has released a free demo version of their Chimps Ahoy! [$4.99, App Store] game.
Chimps Ahoy! Lite [Free, App Store] provides a 7 level version of the game to provide you a taste of the gameplay before committing the $4.99 for the 100 level version.
The game is a multi-touch take on the classic breakout/arkanoid formula. The two chimps on either side of the screen are controlled independently with your thumbs, and your goal is to bounce a coconut between the two chimps to eliminate all the blocks. Enemies and powerups are also available.
While we have not done a full review of the game, this video from the developer provides an overview of the gameplay.
hmmm... looking at this for too long makes my stomach feel a bit weird...
Yeah, I was getting a little motion-sick myself....
I agree, it makes me rather dizzy watching it. I guess I don't like games that I have to swing back and forth a lot. I think a little accelerameter goes a long way.
The PocketGamer review (linked in the first paragraph) says this of the mobile (cell phone) version:
This is where the warning about playing on the move comes in. Two words: motion sickness. It's rare that playing a mobile game makes you reach for the paper bag, and usually it's because it's awful. But in this case, playing Rock 'n' Roll is such a topsy-turvy experience that lesser mortals might find themselves turning green around the gills.

What a bunch of lightweights! I bet I could finish this game standing on my head while riding a bus ;-) Looks fun like a nitro boosted Locoroco meets pinball!
looks kinda cool.
and VERY nauseating...
reminds of an old game called cameltry http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...
I was only thinking the other day cameltry would work well on the iphone after playing the best game on the iphone, Dizzybee.
Looks interesting, but with only 30 levels I'll be interested to see how much they're asking for it. The demo showed 2 levels played in just a few minutes, so doesn't seem like it would have much longevity.
