As Apple’s Game Center continues to grow in popularity amongst iPhone and iPod Touch users, it’s been discovered that only a handful of the 200-plus games have true multiplayer functionality. That is changing as brand new games are taking advantage of all the functionality offered by Game Center.
Three new games which feature true multiplayer matching alongside the ubiquitous achievements and leaderboard have been released by Digital Future, Inc. of Loveland, CO.
Known as the makers of the now world-famous iFart Mobile, Mashable v1.0 and MC Hammer’s HammerTime app, Digital Future is pleased to release FleetMaster, Chess Online and Blast4 to the iPhone and iPod Touch user base.
All three games are free from October 1 – 4, when the price will go to .99 each.
1) FleetMaster – Based on the classic battleships game, players compete to sink each other’s ships in as few shots as possible. Featuring solo and multiplayer functionality, FleetMaster also contains thirty-two fun achievements, leaderboard functionality, innovative graphics and sound effects.
2) Chess Online – When Apple launched Game Center, they clearly intended to match players of classic board and table games. Even the Game Center logo has a chess piece in it. Chess Online is the world’s first multiplayer chess game for Game Center. It features live gameplay, thirty-two original achievements and competitive leaderboard.
3) Blast4 – What do you get when you combine classic Connect 4 (TM) gameplay with jewel-style matching and explosions? A fun new challenge! Blast4 can be played alone or in multiplayer mode with twenty-eight achievements and leaderboards.
“We are pleased to be among the first to offer true multiplayer matching to Apple’s Game Center,” said Digital Future CEO Joel Comm. Comm continued, “With the release of FleetMaster, Blast4 and Chess Online, iPhone and iPod Touch owners finally have the ability to enjoy great gameplay with others around the world. We hope many take advantage of the 3-day free offer of these games.”
