Raging Thunder – Multiplayer 3D
racing for iPhone / iPod Touch
Polarbit, developer of acclaimed
AppStore title Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart, announced today the release of their
award-winning game Raging Thunder for the iPhone and iPod Touch. Raging Thunder
is an arcade style racing game and includes features custom-made for the iPhone,
such as real-time multiplayer races, accelerometer and touchscreen control,
state-of-the-art 3D graphics and much more.
Raging Thunder is the first title
from Polarbit’s portfolio to be ported to the iPhone, but the team is deeply
committed to the platform and are already planning for subsequent releases,
including ground-breaking powerboat racer Wave Blazer.
Says Anders Nilsson, CTO at Polarbit:
“The iPhone is the benchmark for high-end mobile devices at the moment, so
supporting it in our middleware Fuse and in our games goes without saying. One
of our key ambitions with Raging Thunder was to include a solid multiplayer
feature, something so far under-utilized in iPhone and iPod Touch titles. Being
able to race against human opposition makes all the difference between a good
racing game and a truly great one!”
Raging Thunder is available globally
from the AppStore.
