The former design lead on the original Scribblenauts has just released Returno for free on iOS.

Matthew Cox's Returno is a fast-paced arcade game in which you tap discs to stop them travelling across the screen. If one disc should reach the other side, your session is over and you'll be given your score.

The discs come in four colours, representative of the screen's four sides. The colours are handy for when a voice tells you a disc is getting close to the other side and needs to be tapped. It helps you pinpoint where the disc is.

"Returno is my first entry with my 'tiny addictions' vision," Cox says. "I want to find and create two seconds of simple fun with each game, but a type of simple fun that people want to play over and over."

Returno could last you just a few seconds, or you may play it over and over trying to beat your score for several minutes. It's a quick-fire game in every sense.
