FIST OF AWESOME by I FIGHT BEARS LTD ($3.99, 72.6 MB): In this quirky side-scrolling beat 'em game, humans have been knocked down the food chain and it's up to you and your now sentient hand to correct the situation. Caused by an unknown change in the space-time continuum, bears rule with an iron paw, followed by deer, dogs, and other animals, leaving humans at a new mercy. However, not all is lost as the altered timeline also includes the Fist of Awesome, an aggressive force now possessing the lumberjack Tim Burr via his hand. Ready to overthrow the animal kingdom, the Fist swings into action, dragging along its most recent host to punch, smash, kick, and stomp the furry fighters. The game features 8-bit 2-D graphics, chiptunes, solo story-driven campaign, objective-based arena-style survival mode, 11 stages with boss-like bear battles as finishers, 22 characters, dual thumb controls, as well as Game Center leaderboards and achievements.
