Ladies and gentlemen, I bring news of a frog with a gun and his epic quest for love, headed to iPhones this spring. If that premise alone isn’t enough to whet your appetite—it’s the latest game from mastermind Daisuke “Pixel” Amaya. I’m not going to tell you for the hundredth time who this gentleman is. But let’s just say I know what he’s known for very, very well. …Did I mention I’m a fan? Feast your eyes upon Gero Blaster!

As soon as you’ve absorbed all you can, let us begin to take bets on when the wonderful folks at Nicalis will pick this game up, bring it westward, and attempt to port it on every platform imaginable.

And I’m out of frog-related quips for this evening, so… we’ll offer more information as it comes.
