Volatile platformer Ms. Splosion Man will burst onto the App Store next week
Handle with care
Twisted Pixel's platforming sequel Ms. Splosion Man will burst onto iOS sometime next week.
Picking up the dynamite baton from 2009's XBLA hit 'Splosion Man, Twisted Pixel's feminine follow-up charts the explosive exploits of another lab experiment gone awry.
This time out, the series's notoriously unreliable scientists have created a volatile humanoid made entirely of combustible matter.
Assuming control of this female firecracker, you must guide her through a number of levels, solving puzzles and defeating enemies as you go.
Like the first game's protagonist, Ms. Splosion Man relies on explosions rather than a 'jump' button to clear gaps and progress to higher ground.
This App Store-friendly version of Ms. Splosion Man will also contain some iOS-exclusive power-ups, including a bullet time option and the impressive-sounding "nuclear 'splode".
We look forward to finding out whether Ms. Splosion Man on iOS can make our hearts go 'boom' next week.
Twisted Pixel has confirmed - once again - that Ms. Splosion Man is also heading to Windows Phone in the not-too-distant future.
