‘Mini Gay Boyfriend’ releases music video to promote cute iPhone app [video]

By JD Uy on February 16, 2011

“The reception has been great. Everyone seems to love the cute graphics and cheeky humour. Now it’s just a case of spreading the word, and hopefully the music video will do just that!”

Michael Othen, developer of the iPhone app “Mini Gay Boyfriend,” as quoted by GayGamer, which reports that the cartoonish game has had success in 35 countries. Despite slightly suggestive gay content, the game is rated 12+, and it has over 2,000 purchases. (GayGamer)

“Mini Gay Boyfriend” is a simulator of sorts, where the user chooses one of several men to flirt with, go on dates, etc., and progression requires attention over a number of days. The action is more symbolic, however, performed through a series of mini-games where you tap the screen to catch moving objects. The developer promises more boyfriend types to choose from on his Facebook page.
