    gobus-header.jpgGOSUB 60 is all set to recreate the magic of the good old darts game, an integral part of the whole pub culture. The company is ready to release the mobile game "Camera Phone Darts” an mobile interpretation of the iconic darts game. This game is in a number of ways is quite innovative as the company has employed the EYEMOBILE-ENGINE middleware from GestureTek Mobile and Motion-Sensing Technology for a true to life experience. Users will move their handsets to aim and by a touch of a single button one will be able to launch the dart.

    The game is set up yes you have guessed it right in a pub and one can play any of the popular versions including Cricket, 301, 501, Around the World, Baseball and Golf. Users can choose from any of the four modes including Practice, Quick Play, Pass-N-Play (play with friends) and Career Mode (play with over 20 AI opponents of varying skills). The Build-A-Board section is pretty cool as it lets you customize the dart board by choosing any image or project like it wads, tomatoes or water balloons. The game would be available by October 30th, 2006 with subscriptions starting at $2.99 and unlimited-use downloads at $5.99. For more info visit http://www.gosub60.com/
    "We're using EYEMOBILE-ENGINE(TM) middleware from GestureTek Mobile for the critical navigation piece," Hartwell continues. "Their camera-enabled motion sensing system allows us to create the easy one-button gameplay that is essential in the casual games space." GestureTek is the same company whose patented technology is licensed by industry leaders such as Microsoft for its recently announced Xbox 360 Gaming Console Live Vision Camera, and Sony Computer Entertainment for its PlayStation2(TM) EyeToy(TM). The EYEMOBILE-ENGINE seamlessly delivers real-time motion control using the handset's camera. Unlike costly and limited hardware-based sensors, EYEMOBILE-ENGINE is a pure software (middleware) solution that is readily delivered over-the-air with any game or application.

    Carl Korobkin, Vice President of GestureTek Mobile, says, "'Camera Phone Darts(TM)' is the perfect type of game to showcase our technology. It takes a concept that has been difficult to translate to the mobile game space, and makes it natural and fun. We really believe that EYEMOBILE represents the next generation of mobile gaming innovation. Don't let the buttons get in your way: just move the phone to control the action."
