Apparently, QWOP designer Bennett Foddy had this to say about Oh: "James Marion asked me to play this game and I was all like "Oh.""

Oh, indeed. That's the same reaction I had when first gazing upon this dodge-'em-up's psychedelic visuals.

Oh (not to be confused with oO) is yet another addition to the catalogue of mobile games that, as developer James Marion says, are designed to be "stress-inducing".

Your task in this one is to guide either one or two balls through the holes of fast-approaching discs. As is always the case with these games, it's much harder to do than that description may make it seem.

You can rotate the balls by sliding your thumbs around the edges of the screen.

While doing this, the screen bursts with electricity. At the same time, a mix of colours you'd normally see on a tie-dye shirt throws itself around. This is a game for party people.

Oh comes with a variety of difficulties, including Hard, Bliss, and Duet - the latter being the one with two balls.

Oh may sound like an awful headache to some. But, if you're a fan of Super Hexagon and Wave Wave, it seems that it's going to be the next game worth raving about.

Oh will be available to purchase for £1.99 / $2.99 on the UK and US App Stores at midnight.
