Updated 6th October, 10:17 AM: After much patient waiting the quirky, hard-hitting brawler Dan the Man is finally out on iOS.

Way, way back in March, Halfbrick Studios soft-launched their indie game Dan the Man on iOS but now we're very excited to see that it'll be arriving onto the worldwide App Store on October 6th, and we can't wait.

Not only is Dan the Man's mini web series by studio JOHO absolutely brilliant, the game based on it brings about an old-school sense of the classic platformers we saw back in the 80s/90s. The game takes place after the last episode of the web series (Stage 7) as Dan and his love Josie try to conquer their greedy and narrow-minded monarchy.

With 12 levels to kick, punch, and blast your way through, this intense action platformer has something for even the pickiest of arcade lovers. If it's anything like the web series you can expect a variety of guns, some kick-ass boss battles, and a touch of humour to see you through the game.

Find out more on their forum page here or download the soft-launched game here. If you need help to make a New Zealand iTunes account then check out this link here, and stay tuned for more updates.
