Air Hockey for iPad

Air Hockey [$0.99 - iTunes Link] by Acceleroto is now a universal binary that works on both your iPhone and iPad (that’s right, pay once, play everywhere). It offers fluid air hockey action, simple controls, and a lot of fun.

For more about Air Hockey from Acceleroto as well as video of my son and I playing please stay with us after the break!

Air Hockey lets you choose one or two pucks and one and two players. If you do not have anyone to play with, one player mode gives you a computer opponent with varying difficulty, from kiddie to INSANE. With the larger size of the iPad, however, a human opponent becomes more more do-able, and much more fun.

Take a peek at the video where I play with my son in a two puck game. Who won? watch to find out, but also watch to see how much fun it is.

  2. Zombie_Mac says:

  3. AarontheRed says:

    It really does feel more like real air hockey on the iPad! Way better than on iPhone.

  4. Luc Richard says:

    I love this app for my iPhone its probably that much better on the iPad, to bad I don’t have one :(

  5. Tom says:

    looks like it has difficulty following fast finger movements

  6. John says:

    looks glitchy as hell

  7. Georgia says:

    It isnt glitchy if you watch my side you will see it was very responsive. Though my little one would take his fingers off the iPad and so it looks glitchy. Have to say the control was pretty nice and fluid.

    In my little ones defence it was his first time using the iPad =)

  8. Simon says:

    Yea, it’s not clearly visible but if you look well she takes her fingers of the iPad all the time, but then again: she used it for the first time and ‘is only 4 years old’ :P

  9. dorthensensens says:

    Nice beating on a 4 year old.

  10. Christopher Cox says:

    Also it seems as if the game won’t let you take your slider past the middle line. So she kept trying to slide it past there and it just stopped it. It looked very responsive.

  11. summer says:

    wow, great, I like this games, and I like igolf too! I gathered a list of ipad games, hare share to you all, please go to iFunia ipad column “Featured Free iPad Games”.

  12. ermax says:

    So whats next for Apple. I giant iPhone called the iTable. It would be perfect for this air hokey app. :)

  14. There are more than one of these games aren’t there? I really like the one with a normal coloured background.

  15. Where could we go to have an extra marital affair? It seems to me that espoused women plus espoused men looking to have affairs all go to the same wedded dating sites. I believe that its a good thing together with no one should have to remain loyal to a marriage they hate.
