iPod touch Preview: Rolando

Although Rolando may look familiar to anyone who fell in love with a certain yellow blob named Locco Rocco, this spunky platformer is actually an original title from developer Hand Circus. After the Rolando’s kingdom is invaded by a great darkness, it’s up to you to guide them 4 worlds and 36 levels where you’ll have to tap, tilt and touch [the holy trinity of touch t's] you’re way to freedom. I’m looking to forward to rolling around with the Rolandos this holiday season when the game is released.
The creative art style is courtesy of illustrator Miko Walamies, who has done some really great playful and imaginative work. At a time whe the AppStore is overflowing with crap the team over at ngmoco:) is really kicking ass with the fun titles like this and the previously released Topple and Mazefinger.
