Kick the Buddy: Forever, Dude!
Kick the Buddy: Forever claims that it is going to teach you all about playing Facebook games on your phone. And apparently, it does... because in the early stages of the game you will be able to pick up a pair of scissors and whack someone in the head for a couple of points. That's the last I saw of it, but it also looks like they are having some sort of difficulty with the iPhone version as well. Regardless, once you have progressed to level ten and access to more powerful weapons, everything starts to fly.
Kick the Buddy: Forever also has fantastic physics-based off-center physics, so that when you swing your virtual stick through the air and someone else is in the way, their legs will take the damage, too. This constantly reminds me of the Need for Speed games (although I'm not exactly sure why), where you'd be whacking an opponent in the head to bring them down, only to watch them go flying backwards out of your hands and backwards into the air as you move your Stick. Anyway, the better playgendary game mechanics don't end there, however.
As you progress through the game, you will be rewarded with upgrades for your Stick, so that you can use it to smash those Nazis and kung fu starships without getting stuck on the ground. In addition to the improved stick physics, you will also be rewarded with more health and damage resistance. These effects are animated, so you never have to feel dumb or like you didn't do your job protecting the universe. The Android version is apparently not quite as polished as its iPhone counterpart, but I couldn't find any major complaints. In fact, the Android version does play almost all of the same unlockable codes that the iPhone version does, including the ones for unlocking the four additional characters.
