Hello everyone!

Michel Barengo and myself created a small iPhone game for our Master study courses in Audio Composition and Game Design. This is Hollow Grounds:

It’s a small little story about a cartographer, named Piri, that jumps into a planets holes. And since the planet likes him so much, she decides to switch his gravity mid flight so he gets through them unharmed. It’s a reaction game where you have to rotate and turn your iPhone while the character falls down those entwined tunnels.

I thing it turned out pretty nice, took us about 4 months of full time development on my part and another 2+ weeks for Michel to compose and arrange the music. I did a small Trailer for it

We launched it last week. I’m pretty excited how it will do. Luckily, as students, we aren’t really depending on the sales. :wink:

Here’s a link to the iTunes store if you’d like to check it out

What do you guys think?

Thanks guys. It is running ok so far. It has been Place 36 in Games in Switzerland

We’ve gotten some great reviews from smaller sites, especially german speaking ones:

Unfortunately AppAdvice tested it on an iPad where there was a guy bug and pretty much destroyed it with 2/5, making chances slim for another big review :(. The fix is under Apple review right now.
