We first heard about Recoil Games's gravity-twisting action-platformer Rochard during an Nvidia Shield showreel at MWC 2013.

Since then, things have gone a bit quiet on the ol' Rochard front.

Well, they had been. Not any more, though. That's because the game has just gone live on Google Play.

You'll need a Tegra 4-powered device and a gamepad to actually play Rochard, though. Your best bet, then, is to play it on Nvidia's clamshell pocket console.

In Rochard, you can expect five huge chapters of action-packed, stunning-looking platforming, during which you'll be manipulating the world around you with a G-Lifter.

You can use the gun to hurl crates, play with gravity, manipulate the environment, and solve the head-scratching puzzles tossed into your path.

Rochard is out on the Google Play Store right now, and will set you back £4.99 / $6.99.

Make sure you've got everything you need to play it before you download it, mind, or you're going to be disappointed. And that would make me sad.
