Bitmen Studios Enters iPhone Gaming Market

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) April 27, 2011 -- Graz, Austria - May 6, 2011 - Bitmen Studios' first title for the iPhone and iPad is a visually appealing fast-paced action game set in the World War II theme. "We wanted to create game that stands out from the mass of 0.99$ bulk commodity." says Mark. "We invested a lot of time into the visuals, but we have invested even more into the gameplay. The game has its own physics engine providing an enjoyable flight experience. Our team made sure that the controls are responsive to support the fast-paced nature of the game."

"Air Force vs Luftwaffe took us roughly six months to polish to a state that meets our quality standards. ", says Tim, Art Director at Bitmen Studios, "We've really invested quite some effort into the artwork and stereo sounds. It looks great on the iPhone but it is absolutely amazing on the iPad."

"During the design of the game, we had to decide whether we wanted to create a simulation or an action game. ", says Ben, lead programmer at Bitmen Studios, "We think that gaming should be about fun and therefore, whenever we had to decide between realism and making the game even more fun, we were opting for fun."

"We wasted five generations of AI engines till we were happy with the fighter AI and have conducted a lot of usability tests to maximize the fun factor. Feedback from beta testers was very favourable and which makes us pretty confident that we have created a polished, distinct quality title we can be proud of."
