Minigore is a 3D survival shooter for the iPhone and iPod touch. The game is all about John Gore, a little square fellow, who finds himself surrounded by the furries – hairy, round creatures with particularly sharp teeth. Your mission is to defend John at all cost from these creatures.
WHAT PEOPLE SAY:
“Really pleasing style works brilliantly on iPhone. Great engine, particle effects, faked lighting effects and fluid framerate.”
-IGN
“While MoreGames have left their dual shooter iDracula to concentrate their efforts on Knights Onrush, Mountain Sheep have taken over the mantle with their upcoming dual shooter MiniGore.”
-Mobile Game Faqs
“While Minigore is in fact the survival shooter in the purest sense, its clever design elevates the game high above a dumb shootout contest, testing both your arcade skill and concentration.”
-Geek.com
NEW IN EPISODE 2:

-Many other features, fixes and tweaks – stay up-to-date at http://minigore.blogspot.com
FEATURES:
-Control John with two virtual sticks; the left stick for moving around and the right stick for shooting.
-Three different weapons: the trusty machine gun with unlimited ammo, a double-barreled shotgun to give you an extra boost and an exploding booby trap to catch unsuspecting furries with.
-One level of full 3D world rendered in the beautiful storybook style of Minigore, complete with bushes, trees and props. Be sure to avoid the terrain with poor visibility… there may be a summer camp for vicious Furries in there!
-The furries come in four shapes and sizes: the small Minifurry, the Furry, the lamentable Giant Furry and the most dangerous of them, the Firefurry, a fiesty flaming furry that is able to outrun even John Gore himself. Be warned — blasting a Giant Furry will split the creature into several furries that, if destroyed will split into Minifurries. It’s Russian Nesting Dolls with a vengeance.
-Turn the tables by collecting enough four-leaf clovers to unleash your inner beast and become the new worst enemy for the furries by running them over to really awesome banjo music!
-Conquer the online leaderboards with your crazy scores and brag about them using the built-in chat. Minigore is fully OpenFeint Enabled.
-Play listening to the fully orchestrated original soundtrack or access your music collection directly in the game on the iPhone OS 3.0!
-The Egoraptor, Arin Hanson, creator of the insanely popular Metal Gear Awesome and other videos in the Awesome-series, starring as the voice of John Gore is something you don’t want to miss!
-Expert mode: after learning the ropes, switch on the expert mode to unleash the full fury of the furries!
-Support for both left and right landscape orientations for the screen.

Impressive details of shoot-em-up game make up for lack of features

Chillingo's
Minigore is a vicious 3-D shoot-em-up game. You control John Gore, who's certainly named appropriately for this gruesome game. Your terrain is a single, beautiful, and large level, full of lovely trees, bushes, and grass. Oh, and Furries.
