First iPhone Boxing Game "Smack Boxing" Released by Full Control and WIT Entertainment


Full Control and WIT Entertainment today unveiled Smack Boxing, the very first boxing game for the iPhone. The game is designed to fully utilize the unique iPhone user interface by using the accelerometer for moving the player character and multitouch gestures to control the punch action.

"Releasing the first game in a genre is always exciting. But we wanted to do more than that. We wanted people to both have a stress relieving boxing experience, as well as a good laugh. So we took the game one step further and mixed in caricatures of crazy characters everyone can relate to as opponents. This makes it even more fun to play, and we plan to add more opponents soon.", says Magnus Blikstad from WIT Entertainment.

For this first release the game features the following villains:
Jungle Jay
an old guerrilla warrior without much brain
Sumo Stan
muscles turned into fat once he had to use glasses
Cyril Cigar
pensioned super hero wannabe

Full Control and WIT Entertainment today unveiled ElectroCUTE, their first coproduction for the iPhone. The game is designed to redefine gameplay and user interaction by fully utilizing the unique multitouch interface of the market’s hottest mobile device. Where regular tapping the screen obscures most of the screen, ElectroCUTE lets players enjoy the full view of the game while playing.

Players of the game act as a digital shepherd, protecting their flock from alien UFOs with arcs of electricity. To interact with the game players simply press two fingers on the screen and an electric bolt fries everything between their fingers - UFO and sheep alike. The player can also get help from several powerful powerups -- everything from explosive bombs to time altering devices -- in the fight against the aliens.

Full Control and WIT Entertainment have spotted the iPhone market as the perfect opportunity to coproduce games for casual players and people seeking unique game experiences. Instead of porting old classics or making yet another match-3 game for web portals, both companies try to push the boundaries of interaction with this new and innovative gaming device.

Several other games are in production with the iPhone as a target platform - ranging from sports games to multiplayer fantasy games. Each game will push the border for interacting with the iPhone.
