Silver Award-winning physics-based iOS title Osmos now out on the Android Market

Innovative Pocket Gamer Silver Award-winning iPhone and iPad strategy title Osmos is now available to download through the Android Market.

In this former iPad Game of the Year winner, your goal is to reach a series of exits, by absorbing small orbs and expelling their mass to propel yourself through various 'playgrounds', solar systems, and petri dishes.

As you progress through the game, you'll have to compete against four intelligent opponents, each with its own distinct personality. Luckily, you can speed up and slow down the flow of time to help you overcome these pests.

Like the iOS version of the game, Osmos for Android features two unique game modes: Odyssey, which gives you a "27-level guided tour" through the Osmos Blobiverse; and Arcade, which allows you to play through 72 levels at a difficulty setting of your choosing.

You can currently grab Osmos from the Android Market [buy] for the special one week-only introductory price of £1.99 / $2.99.

You can see how it works in the following video.
