Get set for the Hoovies and World's Strongest Man on mobile
Will they clean up?
Could Breakpoint have found an antidote to samey old coloured-ball matching puzzle games? Hoovies may just fit the bill, being a quirky puzzler that sees you... firing coloured spheres at each other.
Wait! It's not the usual formula.
Hoovies sounds pretty cool actually, with the eponymous balls being 'the personification of the materialised elementary particles of the hyperreal universe's consciousness'.
They've been discovered by the evil Professor Hoover, who's built a 'Hoovietron' machine to suck all the energy out of the Hoovies.
Your job is to rescue the little bouncy fellas, by using a pair of bellows to pull Hoovies of a certain colour towards you, then splang them into others of the same colour. Got that?
We're looking forward to playing this game: it looks like a cross between the Ribena berries and a GCSE physics experiment. Needless to say, this is A Good Thing. Hoovies is out this month.
Meanwhile, Breakpoint has also signed a licensing deal with Mariusz Pudzianowski, who besides possessing the most Scrabble-tastic name ever, is also the World's Strongest Man.
The first mobile game based on him, which comes out in July, will be a collection of endurance and fitness mini-games, but Breakpoint is also planning a bodybuilding lifestyle application, and an action game where Mariusz fights crime (hopefully by pulling criminal's getaway trucks along by his teeth).
