About

Table Shuffleboard

Features
Read full description

Table shuffleboard, just like the tables found in basements and bars. Drag the puck, build up speed, and release — no flicking, no tapping. This is a real shuffleboard simulation with real physics. Place your finger on the puck and slide it down the table. The harder you swipe, the farther it travels. Set spin on the puck before pressing it and curve it around your opponent's pucks or knock them off the table. Choose from three table lengths — 12', 18', and 22' — each with its own feel and strategy. Three difficulty levels let you dial in the right challenge. Play against the computer or pass the device to a friend for a two-player match. Turn on bumpers for a fun, forgiving experience that's great for kids and casual players. Turn them off for official rules where pucks slide right off the edge. Features: - Realistic puck physics with momentum, collisions, and spin - Three table sizes: 12', 18', and 22' - Three difficulty levels: Easy, Normal, and Hard - 1-player vs CPU or 2-player on the same device - Bumper mode and official mode - Classic shuffleboard scoring rules - In app purchase to remove banner ads Code and images based on 2012 game ShuffleGolf, updated from Flash ActionScript 3 code base to Unity and improved to include spin and alternate camera view. AI Disclaimer: I utilized a Claude Pro plan. A lot.
