The App Stork: Introducing Sheeple Chase, The Hockey Experiment, and Daredevil Dave...
|

Here comes the bird with all the latest apps. The App Stork is here to let you know what's hot in the App Store this week.

He grabs all the latest games from the Pocket Gamer forums. If you want to get chosen by the feathery one, make sure to post about your latest release in the iPhone and iPod touch developer section of the forums.

Include some info about your game, screenshots, and a nice flashy video or trailer for him to feast on.

Let's check out this week's releases...

Sheeple Chase - Green Ant Games

Racing sheep is always good fun, and Sheeple Chase looks to be no different. Powering through the English countryside, the sheep will dart left and right depending on how you tilt your iPhone.

The object is to beat a nimble pig on each level. You have to dodge around hedges, cow-pats, and rivers and take the gold medal. You can also create your own levels with the level editor and race through your own creations.

The Hockey Experiment - Ninth Dimension Studios
The Hockey Experiment provides your iPhone with fully 3D ice hockey action. Take the Mischievous Muckety Mucks out on the ice and hit that puck into the back of the net.

Arcade-style three-on-three action is on offer, with classic 8-bit music, twelve teams to choose from, 24 trophies to earn and several difficulty settings. Of course, it would be ice hockey without the occasionally bust-up, and winning fights will give you an on-ice advantage.

The Hockey Experiment provides all this with OpenFeint-enabled achievements and scoreboards for $3.99.

Daredevil Dave - M-Digital Media
Daredevil Dave is ready to jump buses, shark tanks, and chasms on his motorbike, all in the name of iPhone gaming fun.

If he makes the jump, you'll receive big points and medals. Mistime the leap, however, and you'll get to watch Dave splat, with his ragdoll body crunching against the walls and floor as he cries out in pain. There are 18 jumps to play through in total, with leaderboards to be topped.

Daredevil Dave is available from the App Store for 99c / 59p.
