iPhone Tron Style Game

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)
So, back at iPhone Dev Camp 2, we entered the competition with a TRON style game for the iPhone.  We called it Light Bikes.  Since iPhone Dev Camp 2, we have rewritten pretty much all the code and the game uses a 3D engine.  We are using OpenGL and OpenAL.  It supports 4 players over WiFi.  Each player uses a separate device.

The first version we are doing has a overhead camera view.  We are putting in support for different camera views for 1.1.  The game will mostly likely be pushed to the App Store this weekend.

It came to a surprise a few weeks back when we seen another company stole our name (LightBike) to ride on our coat tales with all the websites and press we had generated over the past few months.  

Pretty sad if you ask me.  So, because of this, we are going to be rebranding our Light Bikes game as Neo Riders.

Be looking for reviews on Touch Arcade and other sites for Neo Riders.


UPDATE:  I have removed the statement about the source code.  I was contacted by Pankaku, Inc and they have assured me that they built their version from the ground up.  I apologize for posting information based on a source that was incorrect.
