Rolando a clone of LocoRoco(psp) for iPhone/iPod Touch

OMG I am really really excited to see this app! I have a psp along with my iPhone and i have a game called LocoRoco, and well its my favorite game of all time on psp. And i have recieved word that a clone is in the works for iPhone and iPod Touch users called Rolando!!! While playing LocoRoco on psp you only use the R and L buttons. When the R button is pressed your screen tilts right and your LocoRoco(the little balls things that is your character) rolls across the screen. Same with the L button when its pressed it tilts to the right. When both buttons are pressed and one is released your LocoRoco will jump to the right, and same with the L button just it jumps to the left(obliviously). And if you release both L and R buttons at the same time it jumps strait up. This may be a little bit confusing, but if you don't understand search on youtube and you will get the picture. :) I actually thought about how awesome it would be if LocoRoco was on your iPhone, and i though "WOW, A game perfect for the use of the accelerometer." But as you will see in the video demo of Rolando, or at least it looks like it to me that you use your finger to direct your ball, i don't know what it is called on Rolando. lol Another kool thing that i liked about LocoRoco were the awesome music it had to it, i mean i have to say at first i thought it was kinda gay, but as i played more and more i LOVED the songs, they were so catchy! But as you will see in the demo the song gets kinda annoying. But overall looks like an AWESOME app, i can't wait to see and here more from this and hopefully it will take advantage of the accelerometer. But that we will just have to see.
