There's a brand new iOS game in development and it has absolutely nothing to do with Apple CEO Steve Jobs.
A unique casual game entitled Ninja Steve, has just been officially submitted to the App Store by Woltz Media for the Apple-bots to review and approve for sale. The game appears to be inspired by headlines from back in September, alleging that Steve Jobs was stopped at Japan's Kansai International Airport with several Ninja Star weapons packed in his carry-on luggage.
After several choice jokes, the absurd Steve Jobs ninja star story launched by SPA! Magazine, was buried with little more than the epic iPod Ninja spoof left behind as a proper memorial.
Woltz Media, may be attempting to exhume those sensational headlines by delivering up a fictional hero Creative Director, Palito Navarro, affectionately calls Ninja Steve. Navarro's Steve character, is a CEO of a hit company by day, but he is secretly a lethal Ninja as well. Steve and his fictional company have "no relation to Steve Jobs or Apple" according to Woltz Media.
Palito Navarro told iPhone Savior, that if his Ninja Steve game debut sells 10,000 units before the new year, he's promising to add the iOS game to Apple's GameCenter and even bring in "The Woz" as a new character in the first update. Palito is referring to "Karate Woz", which has already been imagined by coder Mike Doyle for this original ninja saga.
The entertaining promo video for Ninja Steve (below) cleverly features an original song penned by Jonathan Mann, creator of "The iPhone 4 Antenna Song" video which was featured by Steve Jobs as the opener at Apple's memorable iPhone 4 "Antennagate" press conference.
But even with an endorsement from song writer Jonathan Mann, does Ninja Steve have any real chance of making it past Apple's rigid App Store review process featuring a CEO named Steve? I hope so. I'll certainly be rooting for it to succeed.
Although if it does end up getting rejected by Apple for some odd reason, it will be killed off fast. How fast you may ask? Ninja fast.
