Capsule Computers: Flying through the jungle collecting bananas and gems while avoiding spiders and other dangers? Sounds like an iOS app. Especially with the super cute Chimp that is at your control who does a little dance every time you finish a level successfully and is rocking an adorable mohawk. Is Chimpact your standard aim and shoot platformer or does it establish itself with something different?
From GI.biz: "Team17 has kicked off the new year with an acquisition, bringing Yippee Entertainment into the fold.
The deal amounts to around £1.4 million, through a combination of £922,407 in cash and £433,200 worth of consideration shares (114,000)."
Push Square: "Chimpact is a fantastic little game and a great addition to the rapidly increasing PlayStation Mobile catalogue. There’s a wealth of entertaining content that’ll keep you coming back for more, and, even if you get frustrated, you’re frequently showered with in-game achievements, which provides the necessary encouragement for one more go. It may openly ape other games in the genre, at times drive you bananas, and leave you hanging around while you reload a stage, but it’s chimply marvellous, and a primate candidate for mobile gaming. Just punderful."
Ian Fisher writes: Providing an almost puzzle like take on the platforming genre, Chimpact is a fairly straightforward and pleasant PlayStation Mobile game that thankfully doesn’t falter with its focus on touch controls. The amount of content within the game somewhat bleeds together as things are similar, despite the addition of secondary content which has only minimal effects on the experience, but as a simple PSM game Chimpact is worth your time if you just want to have an easy going gaming experience.
