It definitely looks like there's a lot of potentially interesting things you can do with the mechanics of Zip Zap, and I'd expect no less from Kamibox based on their previous puzzle games. Right now Zip Zap is very close to being submitted to Apple, and Kamibox expect to release sometime in the next month or two. I'm really looking forward to this and anything else from this developer, so we'll keep our eyes out for more information about Zip Zap as it approaches release in the coming weeks.
