Eurogamer writes: "The Xbox Live Indie Games channel is now over a year old, and more than 700 games have made their nests amongst its nurturing branches. While it would be nice to say that the service has blossomed over time, that wouldn't be entirely accurate. The good stuff is arguably better than ever, but there's still an awful lot of pointless dross clogging up the shop window with joypad massages and other daft widgets.
There's still a lack of the sort of truly innovative games that sum up the homebrew ethos - the Canabalts, Darwinias and Samorosts - with most indie devs still preferring to trial their wares as Flash games on websites rather than making use of Mr Microsoft's indoor market hall. Of course, when even the best-selling Indie Games are apparently only shifting a thousand copies or less, you can hardly blame them."

The premise of Gerbil Physics is similar to Angry Birds where you have to knock down stacks of gerbils instead of pigs. Rather than a sling shot, you have to strategically place bombs, firecrackers or incinerating rockets to zap or knock down all of the gerbils below the yellow line on the screen.
Independent games developer and publisher ‘Pencel Games’ is proud to announce the worldwide release of ‘Gerbil Physics’ to the Google Play and Amazon app stores!
