Read The Full Review » “Oil Slick” Raises Money to Combat BP Oil Spill By Bonnie Eisenman on July 20th, 2010 Tweet What are we supposed to call it, anyway? “Spill” sounds inadequate. I always thought of a “spill” as a ship being struck, or a pipe; in our current crisis, oil is gushing from a seemingly endless well deep beneath the ocean. Our oil “spill” is a catastrophe. Regardless of what we call it, though, the oil spill’s effects are wreaking havoc on human and animal life alike in the Gulf of Mexico. The environmental impact will be felt for years, if not decades. Inspired by the tragedy of the spill, the developers at GoGo-Robot Games have designed a game to call attention to the environmental crisis. Dubbed “Oil Slick,” the game challenges players to out-swim the spreading oil from the viewpoint of an animal. “Most” of the proceeds will be donated to Defenders of Wildlife, a nonprofit working to save animals affected by the disaster. The game’s only $0.99, and any charity money it generates is likely to be small. Still, we like to see developers conscious of the world and community around them. Check out GoGo-Robot’s website, or the website for Defenders of Wildlife. $0.99 Oil Slick + Universal App - Designed for iPhone and iPad Released: 2010-07-11 :: Category: Games Advertisement Top 148 App Lists 148 All Time Top iPhone Apps Top 148 Free iPhone Apps Top 148 Free iPhone Games Top 148 Paid iPhone Apps Top 148 Paid iPhone Games Featured Apps Advertisement Advertise Here Categories Blog (8,221) 500K Apps (8) App Store Insiders (138) Contest (29) Editor's Corner (2) Favorite 4 (125) First Looks (405) FrEEday (42) Friday Five (89) Guide (1) Hardware (121) Howto (77) iCasual (11) iD&D (5) Interviews (129) Lists (34) MMAHQ (25) Opinion (70) Photography on iOS (8) Portable Podcast (170) Rumors (24) Site Things (29) Upcoming (518) Weekend Fun (8) Weekly Roundup (154) Reviews (8,759) Hardware Reviews (98) iPad Apps and Games (4,445) iPad Books (60) iPad Education (89) iPad Entertainment (87) iPad Finance (11) iPad Food & Drink (23) iPad Games (3,543) iPad Health & Fitness (26) iPad Lifestyle (31) iPad Medical (2) iPad Music (67) iPad News (49) iPad Photography (99) iPad Productivity (162) iPad Reference (22) iPad Social Networking (36) iPad Sports (16) iPad Travel (21) iPad Utilities (35) iPhone Apps and Games (6,780) Books (54) Business (42) Education (95) Entertainment (132) Finance (38) Food & Drink (24) Games (5,048) Health & Fitness (113) Lifestyle (107) Medical (10) Music (109) Navigation (28) News (48) Photography (259) Productivity (285) Reference (27) Social Networking (123) Sports (27) Travel (47) Utilities (108) Weather (28) Parents and Kids (963) By Age Range (962) For Parents (124) High School + (105) Middle School (140) Preschool (791) Primary School (692) Toddlers (649) By App Feature (954) Animals (204) Art (349) Counting (64) Creativity (397) Geography (29) Health (51) Just For Fun (710) Language (315) Matching (91) Math (74) Music (56) Nature (36) Phonics (36) Pregnancy (8) Puzzle (207) Reading (368) Science (73) Shapes (48) Social (243) Sounds (77) Special Needs (48) Spelling (30) Stories (316) Time (6) Follow Us Twitter - Main Stream Twitter - New Apps Twitter - Price Drops Facebook RSS - Main Feed RSS - Price Drops RSS - Top 148 Free RSS - Top 148 Free Games RSS Feed - 148 Paid RSS - Top 148 Paid Games Developers Would you like your application reviewed on 148Apps?
