TiltBall is a quick twitch arcade-style game thats simple, challenging and Scoreloop enabled. The app takes full advantage of the unique UI capabilities of the iPhone / iPod touch platform. Tilting your device moves your ball so that you can guard your net, while trying to knock the other ball into the opponents net.

Game Play:

> You control your player sphere (the green one) by tilting the device. The more you tilt the device, the faster the ball will move. You want to position your sphere to guard your goal, or to bounce the yellow ball into the other goal.

> The Tilt Indicator at the center of the screen shows you how much, and in what direction, the device is tilted. It changes color from blue to yellow to red to reflect the steepness of the tilt.

> Tilting your device will also result in a modest gravity force in the direction of the tilt. This will curve the path of the games objects.

> The defender (the trio of orange pipes) is smart, although not brilliant. It will attempt to track the motions of the yellow ball, but you can still get well-timed shots past it. It may also occasionally accidentally score a point for you by knocking the yellow ball into its own goal.

> A TiltBall game plays for two minutes and 30 seconds. The side with the most points when the game timer expires is the winner.

Tips:

When the device is tilted to near vertical in any direction, the tilt indicator will turn red, and youll be moving your ball as fast as possible. Be aware, though, that the faster its moving in one direction, the more youll have to tilt to change direction. This may affect your ability to exert fine grain control.

Your sphere will bounce when it hits the edges of the field.

This shouldnt happen, but if an object is bounced off the field, it will return in a moment.

Game state will be saved automatically when you exit the game. You can resume the same game when you come back, or start a new game (the default). Of course, the very first time that you play, you wont have a saved game.

Scoreloop:

TiltBall is Scoreloop enabled. That means that you can play as part of a community! You can compare your scores with other gamers worldwide and even challenge them directly.

You can challenge just about anyone, including your contacts or buddies on Facebook. Tapping on a name in the high score list initiates a challenge against an existing player. You can also create and accept anonymous challenges. Scoreloop will ensure that you play against opponents with reasonably equivalent skill levels.

TiltBalls default settings for Scoreloop score submission give you maximum privacy, but may be less than convenient. Set the "Upload Scores to Scoreloop" switch to "ON" for the most seamless experience with Scoreloop. Your winning scores will not be submitted to Scoreloop unless you either explicitly send them using the "Send Scores to Scoreloop" button, or set this switch to "ON". To ensure effective use of your bandwidth, Scoreloop limits uploads to scores that are meaningful for high score lists and challenges. Your score is only submitted to Scoreloop if you win. Ties and losses are not submitted.

Scoreloop is free so just give it try. Find out how thrilling it is to compare scores and challenge others!
