Mentally unwell MeowWalker game moonwalks onto iPhone

There are some pretty surreal apps out there for iPhone these days, but MeowWalker has to be in the running for the Double Lobotomy Most Insane Developer award.

It's a music/rhythm game featuring a Michael Jackson-obsessed cat that dances to entertain a crowd of pop music-loving alley cats.

The MeowWalker game is able to automatically search your iPod listings for Jacko songs, which it then brings into play. Your job is sto use the tilt and touchscreen controls to moonwalk between the spotlights and perform your killer moves in accord with the beat, and the crowd's enjoyment.

The hand-drawn animation adds much of the humour as the cat, dressed in a variety of Jackson-esque attire, shakes its thing and gyrates its hips in homage to the late king of pop. It's on the App Store now for 59p.

Yes. Spanner's his real name, and he's already heard that joke you just thought of. Although Spanner's not very good, he's quite fast, and that seems to be enough to keep him in a regular supply of free games and away from the depressing world of real work.
