About

AR Lopte

Read full description

AR Lopte is an Augmented Reality racing game. The player competes against the device with handballs instead of car toys. Each handball has a unique color and number. Four handballs are involved in the game. One handball is controlled by the player. Other handballs are controlled by the device. The player chooses the racing track and after that chooses one handball. Player can set a number of laps in the game. When everything is set, the player starts the game with a tap on the Start Game button. There are 10 racing tracks and 2 modes to play the game - Rookie mode and Default mode. In Rookie mode, travel-sign arrows show the direction - Tap the travel sign to apply that direction. In Default mode, the device is the steering wheel. The Device applies a measured angle to the handball - Tap anywhere on the screen to apply the force to the handball. For both play modes, Force can be between 1N and 10N (Newtons). If a player applies more successive taps, a bigger force will be applied and the ball’s speed will be bigger.
