Whether you're a fervent supporter of independent development studio WayFoward or you're a diehard fan of the illustrious Shantae franchise -- and, really, who isn't -- you'll have reason to celebrate tomorrow. WayForward (http://twitter.com/#!/WayForwardTech/status/128985668755009537) just announced on Twitter that Shantae: Risky's Revenge (http://www.joystiq.com/game/shantae-riskys-revenge) will arrive on the iOS App Store tomorrow.

If you're familiar with the DSiWare original, you're in for a similar experience, though the game has been optimized (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/09/09/shantae-riskys-revenge-coming-to-ios-soon/) to make it a bit more virtual-controller-friendly. Which is to say, it's a little bit easier this time around. Also, whenever you die because you jumped when you meant to attack, a soothing note pops up, reminding you not to hurl your phone into oncoming traffic.
