June 30, 2010
Today's list is not too shabby thanks to a handful of games and apps going free for the first time ever. We're still working on including more everyday apps (non-games) and iPad apps, but you can't force these things, you just have to let them happen.
Amazing Cannonball Duck ($.99 -> Free): A duck launching game where you are required to tilt and turn your device to control the duck's flight. Holding two fingers on the screen will allow you to control the duck so you can glide and land on frogs and TNT barrels to propel the duck back into the air. Rocks and crocs will stop your movement, however. The game features OpenFeint integration as well.
Amazing Cannonball Duck is free today only (6/30). It has a four-star rating.
Soul ($1.99 -> Free): An adaptation of the Xbox indie game where the goal is to bring the soul of a dead man to heaven by guiding it through dark maze environments. The soul is controlled via tilt, and you will want to try to avoid the monsters that appear and the walls. The game also features three difficulty levels.
