    Pig Shot is a hilariously fun and addictive action game in which you guide a rolling pig through a beautifully drawn, randomized and infinite level full of slingshots, sheep, bonuses and obstacles.

    Pig Shot features OpenFeint leaderboards and (amusing) achievements such as Constipated, On A Diet and Number Of The Beast.


    Features:
    • A farting pig that's rolls between obstacles
    • Wandering farm sheep obstructing your path
    • Completely random environment & obstacles
    • Local and OpenFeint Global leaderboard
    • Dozens of OpenFeint achievements to be unlocked
    • Challenge friends highscore via email
    • iOS4 multitasking supported

    Beta Tester's Reviews:

    "More fun than bowling with your pet pig!"

    "The constipated achievement is the best thing ever. Hahahaha!"

    "It is a very fun and quite unique pick up and play type game, which always makes the player go for a higher score"

    "The game plays perfect and is really fun! I'd say you have another hit on your hands"

    We've submitted the game for review and it will be made available for just 99 cents.

    The game is fantastic. I enjoyed testing it very much. The constipated achievement goes down in history for me, as the best of all time.

    While all of the level settings is randomize, there are quite a few more items that you don't see in the video. Of course, we are already planning to implement some additional features to the game but we will probably not announce that until after the launch of the game.

    The game isn't released, so no promocodes yet :)
    I am trying to finish all the changes Nexx Studio requested by the end of the weekend, so they should be able to release soon after.

    Would you guys mind posting some feedback or suggestions that you may have on the game so we can prepare the forthcoming patch for it.

    I was part of the beta testing group that mudloop did and I do have sone suggestions: you guys could add a store to the game where upgrades could be bought, or make some new environments that can be unlocked! I would like that, and it would add tons of replay value to the game. :)

    It's great to have someone that have experienced the game before to be involved. We however do not intend to release contents through in-app purchase. We would prefer to release patches and provide additional value to the product that was purchased. That is after all something app user would like. I will be making an open channel for suggestions from players and be somewhat more democratic in terms of ideas. ;)

    I believe he was talking about an in game store not DLC and wants unlockables or upgrades bought with in game money or for reaching a certain distance

    Yeah, what EMTKiNG was talking about; that's what I want. It would make more people buy it, and replay it. I certainly would like something like that, and I've seen many other people like those kinds of things in a game.
