October 15, 2012
You're familiar with the expression, "a round peg in a square hole," right? Well, the folks behind Montreuil, France-based independent developer Majaka have set out to create an iOS game based on that very premise. The result? Square Planet.
Square Planet is a 2.5-D platformer that revolves around the adventures of a round ball on the eponymous planet.
But you might be wondering what a round dude is doing on a square world, where everything, including trees and even dog poo, is square.
You see, the evil inhabitants of Square Planet have abducted the ball peeps. And so it's up to you to tilt and tap as you guide said round dude across Square Planet to rescue his fellow globular beings.
