MobiPress: iPhone Apps

This has been a heck of a week for press approaches about new iPhone apps.  The previous highlight was an app that encouraged ladies to ‘let it rip’ in the restroom and use the app to cover up all their unseemly noises.  Late in the week I think we have a new leader in eye-catching opening lines though.

Dear Patrick Jordan
Have you ever hit the balls of a frog?
No, not the eyeballs – the other ones.

I usually feel as if I’ve had a pretty well-rounded life – lived in a fair few different places, got to know lots of great people and cultures, had an extended misspent youth that lasted well into my thirties, and so on.  But now I’m kicking myself (though not in the ghoulies) and wondering how I’ve managed to go all these years without any kicking frogs in the balls at all.

Luckily for me, the PinFrog – The Nutcracker app looks like it will let me make up for lost time in terms of my lack of frog bollocks bashing.  Here are some of its key features:
FEATURES
- Retarded frog
- Softbody physics
- Accurate ball hit detection
- Random combined levels for endless replayability
- 3 kinds of rackets to kick PinFrog
- 10 hideous bosses to fight against and loot
- Up to 40 achievements to win
- Online highscore and ranking
- Play your own music during playing the game

I feel most impressed by ‘accurate ball hit detection’ – being a novice in this whole area of kicking frogs below the belt, that seems like something I’d absolutely need.

I’m not sure I’ll be going for this one, but if you’ve got a big urge to kick frogs where it counts you can find PinFrog in the App Store now for $1.99.
