Tetrasling

windyroad — Tue, 13 Jan 2009 14:13:34 +0000

Tetrasling 1.1

Updates from 1.0
- New sound and music
- Manual rotation option
- Mute option
- More intuitive sensitivity adjustment
- New graphics
- Hiding interface

Tetrasling is a modernized and out of this world game of flying blocks. Addictive gameplay utilizes a solid color 3D block architecture, intuitive accelerometer based rotation, and touch screen tracking. Game board color and banking orientation varies depending on the movement of your device. Game sensitivity can be adjusted in the options menu, as well as the addition of a game board grid to help make it easier for you to see the blocks.

How to play:

The gameplay of Tetrasling is modeled off the popular game Tetris™. Stack the blocks together to complete a full row, at which point you will acquire points (multiplied by the current game level, and speed with which you completed your drop) and the row will dissapear. You can knock out up to four rows at a time. The objective is to keep the game board clear as long as possible.

• To rotate the piece sling the top of your phone to the right or left depending on the direction of rotation.

• To move a piece use your thumb to drag it around from any point on the screen.

You can adjust the rotation sensitivity if you are having difficulty with the accelerometer. If it is not working for you, the accelerometer can be disabled at which point you will rotate the pieces by tapping the upper left or right portion of the screen. Tap three times to toggle the interface.

Bonsai is the Japanese art of miniaturizing trees by growing them in small pots. Now you can create your own miniature trees in 3D right on your iPhone or iPod!

With a tap of your finger, iBonsai’s sophisticated generative algorithm begins growing a unique digital tree. No two bonsai trees are the same! After about 30 seconds of growth, your mature bonsai becomes a beautifully rendered image in the sumi-e style of Japanese brush painting. The iBonsai algorithm produces a wide variety of trees: you might get simple, elegant shapes or twisted, complex creations. The randomness is the source of its beauty.

As iBonsai is an abstraction of true bonsai, you need not worry about watering or pruning your tree: simply watch it take shape before your eyes. In designing iBonsai we have carefully pruned the decision-making process in order to give you a hands-free aesthetic experience. For those that wish to have some control over the process, try using the shaping tool to guide your tree’s growth.

If you liked Koi Pond, you will love iBonsai. Download it today to enjoy the zen-like relaxing nature of this ancient art form.
