    The ruthless PopCap Games cartel has made Gastronaut Studios an offer (casually, 'cause that's how they roll) it couldn't refuse, acquiring the company through subtle intimidation and an undisclosed cache of treasures from its money bin. Gastronaut is the developer behind XBLA titles Small Arms and the upcoming Gel: Set & Match.PopCap now controls all of Gastronaut's assets, tech and employees, who will begin working on "several undisclosed projects." Gastronaut's founders will retain the rights to Small Arms and Gel. Meanwhile, PopCap is set to release its most psychologically addictive title to date, Peggle, on several platforms soon. Teach your parents about Peggle early -- or prepare to lose them to its sinister grasp.

    GamerBytes reports that an entry for a new Gastronaut Studios game has popped up on Australia's OFLC website. Gastronaut, lest you've forgotten, most recently brought us Small Arms for Xbox Live Arcade. Entitled Gel: Set & Match, we know practically nothing about the game, other than the fact that the OFLC has dubbed the game suitable for general audiences. Looking at the title though, we have a sneaking suspicion we might be dealing with a buddy platformer. Then again, it might be a puzzle game. Whatever it is, it's probably an XBLA game and it certainly sounds like there will be gel that will be set on fire. We must admit, the premise is sound.
