ABOUT THE DEVELOPER:
Millipede Creative Development “direct, design and develop games, applications, services and experiences for mobile platforms, physical spaces and the web”. In other words, brands and companies pay them to make awesome games and apps for iOS & Flash.
The team is full of passionate game developers and lead by a guy with a mind in the gutter so they have always wanted to build something for themselves. In early 2011 they did just that, releasing Bullistic, a free physics puzzler starring a bunch of antisocial bulls and a china shop.
Originally intended just to be a fun project to give to clients and show off the team’s capabilities, the game was picked up for new and noteworthy by Apple and has been downloaded by tens of thousands of players. It reached the dizzy heights of #4 free app in Australia and New Zealand and #3 in Mexico!
The team decided that perhaps they were on to something and set about creating a bigger, better, ruder version of the concept, even receiving funding support from Film Victoria to accomplish this task. Fast-forwards to mid-2012 and that game is here – Bullistic Unleashed.
