Mobile publisher Artificial Life has announced its first iPhone game, VBotAttack.

It's promising full support for the device's accelerometer and touchscreen, as well as 2D and 3D map landscapes and vector graphics, with gameplay blending puzzles and action.

More specifically, the game sees you playing a 'VBot' who has to eliminate enemy robots, solve puzzles and make tools from the items you find along the way.

You also get to configure other VBots to help you through traps. The levels take in cranes, conveyor belts, water and lava pools, while you'll meet enemies with an array of "physics-based attack tactics".

This probably doesn't mean they hurl Van de Graaff generators at you, but it should.

Artificial Life hasn't said when VBotAttack will be going live on the App Store, and there's only a splash screen available (above) rather than screenshots. We'll keep you posted when either of those changes.
