Plants vs Zombies developer PopCap brings endless flying title Pig Up! to Facebook

Busy developer PopCap has brought cute and cuddly endless running flying game Pig Up! to Facebook.

The game sees you firing a helpless piggy from a truck-mounted cannon, with the aim of travelling the farthest distance, racking up the most points, and avoiding foes.

After the initial cannon shot, you propel your piece of pork through the air by collecting apples and stars, which allow you to perform 'flaps' - a boost maneuver.

Using Pig Pence, the in-game currency you earn as you play, you can also buy power-ups, such as armour and rocket packs, to help you in your quest.

Being a Facebook game, Pig Up! features some social elements: namely a leaderboard of your friends' scores, which you can aim to beat in weekly tournaments.

Pig Up! is currently at the preview stage and will only be playable for a limited time. We suggest you get your rump over to Facebook now and check it out before it disappears.

When we receive details of a proper release, you'll be the first to know.
