Young, fast and hairy indies get EA approval
Published: July 15, 2009
There’s a new team of games devs on the iPhone block. Called 8lb Gorilla (because they are concentrating on bring smaller and simpler games to the AppStore) they promise to bring a new game to iPhone every month. They certainly seem to mean business as they are being funded by a rather enormous Gorilla, EA!
I received a code for their first game in the post today (a little later than everyone else, due to international post), along with my very own 8lb Gorilla plush (thanks!). Zombies and Me is a simple game that requires you to lead hordes of zombies into range of the military’s WMD’s. Just make sure you don’t get caught in the line of fire.
Look for our review soon. In the meantime, here is a picture of my Gorilla!

Nice gorilla. This game looks like it has good graphics, but seems to be not so fun. I can’t see how the guiding zombies into missiles can have much replay value.

it could be fun if there are a lot of different types of zombies and some of them require to be put in the line of fire of different weapons than others. Also if you get powerups like speed ans greatter attraction area it could be a fun game.
