Canadian developer Gamerizon's Chop Chop franchise has been very successful on iOS, racking up over ten million downloads to-date.

Of course, the company wants more, lots more.

With an average of two million downloads a month, it hopes to end 2011 with a catalog of 20 games and 40 million downloads - which brings us to its latest release, Chop Chop Kicker.

It's a gesture-based game that has you drawing lines onscreen to direct the trajectory of a dinosaur that's kicked into the air at the start of each session.

The Diplodocus is airborne

As said dino travels from left to right across the screen, you have to draw lines on the screen that will guide it to avoid obstacles such as birds, which will crash it, instead aiming for bouncy mushrooms, clouds and gems that will boost your flight and provide power ups in terms of more magic ink so you can draw more lines.

As with all Chop Chop games, the gameplay only requires one-touch, as well as being fast and furious. Your resource is the amount of ink you have to draw lines, so as well as being fast with your finger, you have to be smart in terms of the lines you draw.

Achievements and leaderboards are organised via OpenFeint and/or Game Center so you can see how you rank globally. The game will also give you a A-E stamp for each attempt you make, and as you progress, you lock different types of dinosaur and different levels to fall through.

Chop Chop Kicker is due out as a universal app for iPhone and iPad on March 24, priced 99c, €0.79 or 59p.

You can see how it plays in the following video.
