Curvebot-(1.99)ElPixo

Curvebot is the first game of indie developer Marcus. He is a one man gaming operation working from his house in the United Kingdom.  He was originally working for the military on radar simulation software until he got fed up with all their seriousness and the constant fear of being made to do pushups.  So looking for a joyride of a experience he decided to start making ipod apps.  Inspired by games like Qix and Volified from the 90's he made Curvebot with support from his family and friends. 

The main character in the game is of course Curvebot and his main mission is to save his friends.  In order to do that he must cut them out of various different platforms while avoiding the drones who will try to stop him.

The controls are very easy to learn and don't hinder the experience at all.  To make your curve bot start a cut you first position him somewhere around the perimeter of the object by using the left and right arrows.  To launch him on his cut you tap both arrows at the same time.  After that you are able to control the direction he moves across the object with of course the arrows.  Once a drone hits your line or you its back to the place you started before the cut. Their are 8 different types of drones so you are always kept on your toes.  In order to get a high level score you have to be very strategic about what direction you cut your lines in and how much you cut.

Their is a total of 60 levels with 10 bonus challenges and 3 special levels.  The levels are very replayable as you can shoot to get a better high score and are well designed.  There are GameCenter leaderboards included as well.  The game is supported on Iphone 3gs, Iphone 4, Ipad 1,Ipad 2, Ipod touch 3rd, and Ipod touch 4th generation.

Overall this is a very addicting game with lots of levels and should keep you entertained for a while.  New levels will continue to be added on in future updates.  I give it a 94/100 for its fun and innovative gameplay plus its gorgeously designed levels.
