Touchgrind, real multitouch game

September 11th, 2008 by Alvaro Arregui

Illusion Labs, creators of “iPint” and “labyrinth” unveils their new videogame for the iPhone/iPod Touch “Touch Grind”, as they say: ” the first true multi-touch game for the iPhone”.

The board is controlled by using finger gestures similar to the legs and feet of a real skater. This feature is completely resolved, but i don´t know about the app success unless it will be available for free.

The dynamic and innovative controls together with the game being built on a high quality physics engine gives the players a high degree of freedom to come up with their own tricks. Good :D

They classify this app as a Game 2.0 philosophy , because it comes with an online level editor open to the community to create and publish their own skateparks. Game 2.0?

Great graphics, great controls, even great because of the level editor, but in my opinion this game seems to be a bit drab.

Touchgrind will be available in the iPhone App Store in October, and I hope it will be for free

    There are 2 plans, one is 200mb one is 1gb, what does this mean? you can only use 200mb’s or 1gb worth of download a month??

  6. Álvaro Arregui Says:

    Hi Bradzo.

    Those are data plans, it is your data traffic “limit”, 200mb or 1000mb per month. you can check the plans and prices in telefonica´s website.

    Greetings

    Bradzo…
    If you rich your traffic limit, Telefonica will down your connection speed to GPRS, but you won’t pay more. It’s an important issue to take into account.

  8. Bradzo3000 Says:

    Ah, thanks guys!

    So once i use up the data plan thing (im gonna choose the 200mb plan) i go onto GPRS? And its free?

    GPRS is slower than 3g yes? But still free?

    Thanks.

    HI!

    it´s just drab and boring really; You can´t make a f***k grind, maybe if they consider to control grinds on barrels , some gaps ….it would be just greatful and a so big advance in multicontrol iPhone-shit programming. Well, I would prefer a roller skater game because I roller skate ;) you know my steez; so heads up! I think to make a multitouch game adding grinds etc…would be not trivial because you would have to control, first the ollie next the grind, and I dont want to imagine my fingers trying to noseblunt a barrel :S but…there is a way to make it….but I shut my mouth :P

    cheers!
