Backbreaker Football: Tackle Alley
Trailer released for iPhone arcade game.
SAN FRANCISCO and OXFORD - September 2, 2009
NaturalMotion, the animation technology and game development studio behind the euphoria engine, today released the official trailer for Backbreaker Football: Tackle Alley, an upcoming intense, arcade football experience for the iPhone and iPod Touch.
Inspired by a mini-game taken from NaturalMotion’s Backbreaker (in development for Xbox 360® PLAYSTATION®3), Backbreaker Football: Tackle Alley uses the device’s accelerometer controls and on-screen buttons. The player must sprint, dodge and spin past waves of oncoming defenders, racking up point combos and score multipliers on their way to the endzone. Through Facebook integration, players will be able to see how their high-scores stack up against their friends'.
Backbreaker Football: Tackle Alley is being developed by Ideaworks3D, a world leader in mobile technology, application and game development and will be available for purchase this fall in the iTunes App Store.
