Guppy Games Incorporated, a mobile games developer based in Bellevue, Washington, has recently announced the release of its newest game, Andy Roddick Tennis. Unlike most sports games, in which a famous athlete contributes little to the game but the name, this game is produced with the personal cooperation of tennis star Andy Roddick.

Players of the game are given the option of creating and customizing their own tennis player, where he or she will face regional, national, and international tournaments that conclude by facing off with Andy Roddick. Not only does the game feature excellent tennis action, but players have the option of unlocking a mini-game. Those that score high in the mini-game will become eligible for random drawings for signed Andy Roddick sports gear.

Guppy Games plans to launch Andy Roddick Tennis during the 2006 US Open. Roddick has said that he hopes the game will “bring my sport to a larger audience”.
