    We have the pleasure to announce an upcoming game of physics and strategy.

    Your goal is simple: To defend the the center blue ball from invading red balls using your finger to guide your flailing white ball. (Makes perfect sense, right?)

    Finger Sling takes advantage of the touch-based abilities of your iDevice in a new and unique defense game that is a great addition to its genre.

    Use skill, strategy, and precision to to protect your center ball and use the points you earn to upgrade your speed, size, and defenses.

    Expected Release Date: November 20thish

    Launch Price: To Be Determined

    Gameplay Video:

    Yes. Tomorrow. :)

    Screenshots don't make sense. Imagine looking at the puzzle game Labyrinth with only screenshots. Doesn't work. :)

    Also, if you are interested in the game, start thinking up some catch phrases for the game. Like how Skee Ball has "Balls Out Fun", we should get one too, right?

    When we get closer to release, we will hold a contest on the best catchphrase and give the user a free copy of the game for their efforts.

    Slogan that popped into my head right away: "Don't Touch My Ball(s)" xP I will probably think of more, but that floated into my head first :p

    Hint:

    In Finger Sling, you can either slide across screen to change ball path or grab on and use it like a medieval flail. Both are quite fun.

    The gameplay is impressive and tactical as you have to play against the balls but they can help you at some moments :eek:
    As every Pocket Monkey games, it's addictive and challenging :)

    I've to try it more but for the moment, it's really a great game ;)
