Hi everyone,

I'm one of the devs on an upcoming game, Gore Ball. We're trying to get the word out about it. It's at Apple for approval and should be in the App Store soon. We'll post back once it's available on the store.

Gore Ball is one quirky game. We still can't decide whether it's action, adventure or arcade play. All of the above! I won't give away too much but this first quest is a hack-n-slash, brick-breaker with some cool extras. Oh and zombies that go splat! We've got some pretty cool plans for updates in the works too.

You can see a gameplay video here:

Secret tip: Master using Curve Ball - it's one spell that will save your life and it's just plain cool!

Thanks for checking it out and I'll be back soon!

Official release stuff...

Story Overview:
Hale Galeric, a knight, returns home from the holy crusades only to find his way of life and spiritual beliefs have been turned upside down. A pure evil has swept across the land, killing Hale's wife and daughter in its wake. The people call it The Darkness as the light itself can not escape its clutches. Called upon by the Gods, Hale takes up his sword and pushes fourth to cleanse the land and restore peace to all.
