  Illusion Labs Creates World's First Multi-Touch Game for iPhone: Touchgrind

    MALMO, Sweden, September 8 /PRNewswire/ -- In a world first, Illusion
Labs has created a multi-touch skate game for the iPhone. The game is
unique in that finger gestures are used for control, similar to the motion
of the legs and feet on a real skateboard. Touchgrind follows the two App
Store #1 games Labyrinth and iPint from Illusion Labs that have been
downloaded millions of times.

    The player rides freely in a skatepark and performs tricks on ramps,
boxes and rails. The dynamic and innovative controls together with the game
being built on a high quality physics engine gives the players a high
degree of freedom to come up with their own tricks.

    Apart from the natural controls, Illusion Labs has developed an online
level editor open to the community to create and publish their own
skateparks. From Illusion Labs' experience with Labyrinth they believe that
users are eager to contribute and being part of the game design. Inspired
by the Web 2.0 concept, where the users get more involved in building the
web, Illusion Labs has defined the term Game 2.0.

    Touchgrind follows the same principle to let users create their own
levels and affect the features of the game. On the website players can post
requests for new features, discuss them and vote for their favorites. Even
after the release the community can thereby affect the game.

    Touchgrind will be available on the App Store in October.

    About Illusion Labs

    Illusion Labs specializes in WOW factor games for iPhone and Google
Android. They combine engineering and aesthetics to create fun and
appealing pieces of work. Some of their strongest sides are graphics,
physics simulation, and novel interaction such as accelerometer and
multi-touch.

    Illusion Labs focuses on two areas; Game 2.0 apps such as Labyrinth and
Touchgrind and branded apps for select advertisers such as the iPint which
was awarded a Cannes Silver Lion in 2008.

Loodberg and is located in Malmo, Sweden.
