Mobzombies & Arcade Games in the Real World
summary
Mob Zombies is a place-based arcade game that maps Forsquare venue data into playable levels, using the Forsquare API and accelerometer-based controls on iPhone 3GS so the on-screen avatar follows physical movement. Historical check-ins become zombie counts per venue, turning a bar with dozens of check-ins into hundreds of tougher enemies (example: 79 local players spawn as foes). A touch control fallback exists, version 1 is in the App Store, version 2 adds social dynamics.
