PANGOLIN – a physics arcade game w/unique multitouch interaction (by Feedtank)

[feedtank]

After more than a year of work, we at Feedtank (all two of us), are proud to announce PANGOLIN. It's a physics-based-action-arcade-puzzle-platformer... or something.

We'll let the trailer and screenshots explain. It should be in the App Store within a week or two.

Let us know what you think!

Looks neat. The Pangolin is my 8 year old's all time favorite animal, so I guess I'll have to get this game so he/we can play it, just because it's named that.

Awesome to hear your it's your kid's favorite animal. I hadn't heard of it until a year ago or so when we started doing research about what types of animals curl into a ball and aren't a hedgehog . They definitely seem to be very cool animals – the only mammal with scales of that type (made out of the same material as hair).

Anyway, you won't have much to lose as the game will be free to download with 10 levels (additional levels 0.99 for a limited time)!

Your art appears similar to studio ghibli's style which I'm a fan of. Are you guys inspired by that or with some other game?

Well Studio Ghibli wasn't a direct inspiration, however, I definitely am a big fan their movies. Those big eyes and pupils definitely came from anime some way or another. Almost all of the art and design was inspired by Asian art and typography. I looked at Chinese landscape painting for the backgrounds, Thai type and embellishments for the interface, and Japanese calligraphy for the line work of the levels. You can see the brush work stuff I'm talking about in a level map below:



Thanks for asking

@unseenthings Just checked out Sparky. Looks pretty entertaining. Good luck!

PANGOLIN has a release date!

It's Wednesday, December 12th.

That's 12/12/12. We'll probably release it at 12:12am... that is, if the world is still around (apparently the earth as we know it will end that day according to the ancient Mayan calendar).
