Accelerometers games

It is updated regularly, bringing new levels and features. All in all a great little game for a great price! This is a great game with great features, such as precision accelerometer controls and realistic gameplay. It also has over levels, 60FPS gameplay on newer devices and the most true-to-life physics engine I have ever seen on an iPhone app. It is however quite repetitive, and has no Game Center support, which I think is a missed opportunity.

It is universal, so you can get this game for all your iOS devices with just one purchase. But Rolando adds to the experience by adding touch screen capabilities. You tilt the screen to guide a group of balls from the starting point to the ending point, avoiding obstacles by swiping the screen to jump over them. The later levels involve more puzzle-solving elements, which can be fiendishly difficult.

One of the first accelerometer games on the AppStore, Rolando is still great fun. The sequel to the first ever game on the AppStore, Super Monkey Ball 2 builds on the good points of the first game and improves the bad points as well.

With levels to find your way through and a few minigames thrown in, you certainly get good value for money. With great graphics and a nostalgia-incurring soundtrack, it's difficult to go wrong with this game. You can also play multiplayer over local WiFi, which is great, but I would have liked bluetooth or even online multiplayer even more. In Cube Runner II however, you also have control over how fast you fly, by tilting your iDevice back or forth. EggRunner is a simulation game by 5th Floor Productions, for iPhone.

Available on Android and IOS. Twirly Blaze Studio. The accelerometer data is divided in 3 axes x, y and z , and usually using 1 of the 3 axes is enough. In order to find out which one of the axes is useful to your purposes, I recommend making a very simple application that continuously outputs all the 3 values, and by tilting the device in the desired positions, see which value changes the most.

By doing this, you will also have a rough estimate on the possible range of values for example you can have a device that when is perfectly horizontal has an y value of 0, when tilted to the left goes down to about -5, and tilted to the right goes up to about 5. The most obvious one is that it is impossible to stand perfectly still, so rarely tilt will be equals to 0.

Moreover, the accelerometer data will have some noise in it, so it will constantly change between similar values, even when perfectly still.

So the next logical step is to use a tolerance, for example instead of comparing to 0, you can compare to -1 and 1 respectively, and when you try again the game, you will notice that something still doesn't feel right.
