Bug Bounce
Posted by Patrick Adams on Friday, August 08 - 2008
Cocoa Touch Games brings us an interesting little game with a cute art-style.
I had stumbled upon Bug Bounce in the depths of the AppStore ocean yesterday and after looking at some screens I was hooked, whether the game was good or not I wanted it. Something about the kiddy art-style really appealed to me. Maybe it’s because I love anything that’s cell-shaded, maybe it’s because I am a soon to be father, whatever the reason may be I decided to get Bug Bounce with it’s $2.99 price tag. Bug Bounce is very bare bones. The object of the game is to avoid the bugs. You direct a little blue bird by dragging your finger around the screen, if you hit a bug you will take damage. Certain bugs do more damage than others and if you take too much damage then you will lose a heart. When you lose a heart the screen background automatically changes to the next season. You have 3 hearts total. Once you lose all of your hearts the game ends and you are scored. You can upload your score into a global leaderboard to see where you stand. Bug Bounce will give you a few minutes of fun but there isn’t much too it and it can get boring fast unless for some reason you are one of those people who has to be the best at everything. Bug Bounce has a great art style and I really want to love it but there’s not much there to love. Cocoa Touch Games are the developers behind Bug Bounce and I checked out their site and was happy to see they are hard at work on at least 6 more titles for iPhone. All of them look to have that same great art style. I’m excited to see what else Cocoa Touch Games will bring to the iPhone. They definitely have the potential.
