Welcome to Gyro Tennis - Real Tennis Game Experience in Your iPhone 4
New York, NY Sep 07, 2010 in Games
[prMac.com] Oxford, Connecticut - Personal Applets Corporation today is pleased to announce their Gyro Tennis for iPhone 4 users. The game leverages the built-in gyroscope to control the racket and ball direction and features a flawless tennis physics engine. The game was designed with the tennis fans in mind and displays the realism of the actual tennis game.
Gyro Tennis allows users to challenge their friends in real time via Bluetooth or perfect their tennis skills against the ball canon and gain experience in smashes at the net and lobbing over their opponent. Players can choose equipment (a ball and a racket) they want to play with, court surface (clay, hard, grass, and carpet), number of sets and difficulty level.
As in the real-life game of tennis, each type of tennis court surface comes with its own characteristics, which can truly affect the playing style and feel of the game. As users become more familiar with Gyro Tennis they begin to master their shots and anticipate how the ball will respond to each court surface.
A combination of gyroscope and physics engine gives both amateur and pro gamers an exciting experience right from the start. Rotating or tilting their iPhone, players can change the ball trace and nicely adjust the exact way they want to hit it back having direct and full control of the racket.
The game features 4 levels were a user has the ability to move the racket very fast. In difficulty level Pro the speed at which user can move the racket corresponds to a realistic running speed of a tennis player. If a user moves his finger faster than an actual player runs, the racket turns grey and gets back its original color when an actual player would have arrived at the position of the racket.
"Gyro Tennis is the first tennis game that uses the built-in gyroscope to control a racket and a ball. You control the ball direction and also do lobs and smashes in a very natural manner - which makes the game fun and realistic to play." - said Marco Heddes, President of Personal Applets Corporation.
