Blast some kitties with KittyKannon!

Kitty Kannon - iPhone/iPod Touch App Review


If you don’t know the game already, KittyKannon (called “Kitty Cannon” online) started off as an online flash game, well known on Addicting Games. The objective of the game is to aim the cannon and shoot the kitty as far as possible while avoiding harmful obstacles, such as spikes and hungry plants and landing on mines, explosives, and trampolines. The game has been ported to the iPhone & iPod Touch by a developer called Stix&Stones. Since Adobe Flash SWF files cannot be run on the devices, it has been well ported into the iPhone OS native code. There are a few differences between the two versions:

  • The kitty has to face different obstacles, such as a dog, a spiky… and a spiky… animal… thing…
  • The high-score boards are based on local or worldwide rankings, not a one-server ranking. It has local hi-score support.
  • The explosives are different.
  • Flicking on the screen FASTER means MORE STRENGTH, while on the flash version, there is a strength bar that alters automatically.
  • Aiming requires tilting of the device.

The game costs $0.99 and is worth it since it’s addicting! I highly recommend it to the fans of the original Kitty Cannon game online! Buy it now from iTunes!
