IngZ Brings MMO Role-playing Game To The Smartphone With Traveller AR : nokia pure view.

IngZ, Incorporated, an Austin-based mobile application development company, reported today at SXSW ScreenBurn 2011 it is developing Visitor AR : Traveller-AR a stupendously multi player online role playing game for the iPhone. The location-aware space fantasy game, available this summer, uses AR Augmented Fact to create an immersive experience with the real world – instead of a computer or TV screen – as the backdrop for the gaming universe. Till now, MMORPGs have been restricted to the P.C. With Traveller AR, ingZ is pioneering the next wave of MMORPGs that may use the smartphone to get gamers out of their basements and give them encouragement to explore the world around them.

Moving outside the restrictions of a PC monitor will allow mobile game players to take enhanced fact on the road and explore the enormous Visitor universe that is being “painted” with the entire sky as the palette. Traveller AR is based on the award-winning pen-and-paper science-fiction roleplaying game first developed in 1976. With the exclusive mobile license from Far Future Companies – the holder of the Visitor IP – ingZ is creating the explorable “known space” of the Traveller AR game based primarily on 35 years of development. The game database contains more than forty thousand fully explorable star systems and 350,000 fixed space objects such as stars, planets and bases, creating one of the largest game spaces ever built on any platform.

Users’ home towns will represent their own planets, where they can engage in battles, alliances, commerce and other activities. “Traveller AR finally moves the MMO experience to the smartphone to take game-players outside the home into the genuine world.” Howlett continued, “Unlike any other smartphone games, Visitor AR has fantastic depth for RPG fans, and the unique enhanced reality experience adds to the sensation of engaged and interactive role-play.” .
