Seemingly out of the blue, A2M (that’s Artificial Mind and Movement) have announced that their “icon within the gaming world” (really?) Naughty Bear has jumped platforms to star in his own iPhone/iPod game.
“In the last six months Naughty Bear has captured the imagination of a very wide fanbase and very quickly become an icon within the gaming world and a beacon for the disenfranchised and the disgruntled everywhere,” said Tim Woodley, head of Global Brand Management, 505 Games. “With the launch of the iPhone version, Naughty Bear fans can finally, and quite literally, take matters into their own hands.”
The game is available now priced at £1.79 and features ‘a unique control system’ tailored for the iPhone and a top down view point. The game switches to a a close up view when you execute a naughty, as seen in the screenshot below.
