Description
The world’s first interactive gaming gun for iPhone/iPod Touch! Simply download
the free app and play in augmented reality to single-handedly halt the alien invasion!
The object of the game is to defend your position against swarms of aliens using various guns and missiles. The environment is fully three dimensional and the aliens come at you from every angle imaginable. The
AppBlaster utilizes the iPhone/iPod Touch accelerometer so the game rotates and moves as you do. The result is immersive game play that requires quick reactions and frantic firing!
If you are the proud owner of a iPhone 3GS or iPhone 4 you can make use of the rear facing camera to overlay the game against your
surrounding environment. When your iPhone is docked it transforms into a high tech sight complete with cross hair and game data. Now the alien swarm will
appear from the walls, ceiling, floor, dog or whatever else happens to be in the room at the time. Don’t worry if you have an iPod Touch as the game works just as well using the alternative space background.
Special weapons and power-ups can be collected throughout the mission so
keep your eyes peeled. Even the way to reload is super cool. To
replenish your ammo you have to quickly move the gun 90 degrees towards the
ceiling and then back down again.
The gun is lightweight and the shoulder stock can be removed to give
you a shorter gun depending on your preference. There are two triggers;
the rear trigger fires the lasers, whilst the front trigger is for firing
missiles. Don’t be fooled in thinking this is a one hit wonder, there are
already more games in development and we’re sure that once other developers
have had a go they’ll all be using this ingenious device to get the most out
of their games.
