Smartpuma has released their first iPhone game called Hit Tennis [App Store].
While this is not a massive 3D effort, it does offer a somewhat satisfying touch-control system in which you are directly controlling the swing of your racket.
The game is being offered for free as an introductory offer, but will go up to $1.99 shortly.
As a free game, it's certainly worth playing around with and they do offer a two player split screen mode so you can play against a friend.
App Store Link: Hit Tennis, Free
Update: The price has already gone up to $1.99.
Talk about shortly…. just went to check it out and it is already $1.99. I guess the shortly was REAL shortly.
Yeah, I know. I was going to try it, but not for 2 bucks. Heh
Woke up -checked whats new – went to donwload Hit Tennis —already at 1.99. I can't even see that it was ever FREE ….hmmmm….leaves in dissapointment.
Hmm, well, according to AppShopper, the game was offered for free 2 days ago, and only increased in price today.
I guess it was just a case of TouchArcade posting this news late.

Luckily, being over here in the UK, my day started earlier than over in the US, and I managed to pick up this game for free earlier this morning.
To be fair, the icon popped up as a free app in the Toucharcade New App section 2 days ago. Thus, to the vigilant shall go the rewards…
Ace Tennis Online: have a look – fantastic game! On special for 99 cents too!
@Simon
What are you talking about? It is still listed as $1.99 in the US App store. IMHO it was poor marketing to raise the price in context of extensive pre-Thanksgiving price drops…should have waited 'til after the turkey was done.
Now updated to 1.1
It is not more free any more.
