Mountain Sheep, the developer of Minigore, Ice Rage and Bike Baron, have announced that their newest iOS game KingHunt is now available on the App Store. In a first for the genre, KingHunt features a campaign where you play as the hero and must regain the lands of the Heart Isle as the Evil Kingmaker who claimed control over it.  With his henchmen kings placed throughout the once peaceful lands and as the hero, your goal is to defeat his army and restore balance. KingHunt features twelve different lands to explore, an epic soundtrack as well as Mountain Sheep‘s signature “HD block” graphics style. In addition, there are over 200 different enemies, 110 challenges with 76 achievements and 100 magical trinkets to collect.

Features:

• Great powers at your fingertips: freeze time, chain explosives and summon meteor showers.
• 200 different enemies: jumping, flying, swimming, and roping down at you.
• 12 fantastic worlds: to discover and claim back from Kingmaker’s dominion.
• 100 magical trinkets: collect them to help you become the greatest KingHunter on Game Center.
• 110 challenges and 76 achievements: to beat and to brag about to your Game Center friends.
• DST (Dynamic Slicing Technology): infinite slice variants through four degrees of freedom.

“We felt it was time to introduce some new ideas into a genre that is largely known for only one game,” said Mountain Sheep COO Teppo Soininen. “We’ve injected a sense of depth and fantastic locales, with complex lighting models and a ton of particles and polygons on screen. KingHunt is a natural evolution.”

Mountain Sheep, the developers that brought us the well-known dual stick shooter “Minigore” and the top-down racing game “Death Rally“, have teamed up with Qwiboo (another App Store studio) as well as the composer of Angry Birds to bring a brand new game to iOS. What game is this, you ask? Bike Baron — an upcoming comical trial bike game due to be released for iOS sometime next month. In addition to the release date that we already know, the trio have released the following gameplay video below.

In addition to the gameplay video, we do also know that Bike Baron will feature a level editor.

Bike Baron will be released sometime next month.

Mountain Sheep has submitted a update for their ‘Minigore‘ (published by Chillingo) and the update includes: Furry Sense, a third health with a headband, automatic save and restore of game state, new OpenFeint and faster firing rate on the shotgun. The game is quite fun for only 99¢. The game (as of now) has only 1 level but that 1 level is never ending (until you die) but eventually it gets boring because it only has 1 level. The graphics are very nice and polished and has some replay value. Mountain Sheep also released info on Episode 3: Think life’s hard? Wait until Hardland. The update is still in development but the update includes: Insane mode, giant firefurry, normal firefurry and other as of yet unannounced features. The game is looking really good with the next 2 updates. In the first week Minigore sold over 100,000 copys which is a lot considering for the first week.
