As the teaser for Honeyslug's Passing Time suggests, "mobile footy games can be fiddly." Luckily, the Frobisher Says! and Poto & Cabenga portable developer has come to the virtual athletes' rescue. The athletes run by themselves. Players touch the screen to pass, shoot, tackle, make runs and mark opponents.

Coming Autumn 2012, Passing Time should offer 4 different game modes: Passing Time, Challenge Mode, Friendly and League, with several non-traditional football (soccer) awards and features.

Mike Rose wrote about the PlayStation Mobile platform last month, which offers a one-all development solution for any PlayStation-certified tablets, smartphones, and now Vita.
