XPilot

Introducing XPilot for the iPhone, the first game from 7b5 Labs. Submitted and arriving soon.

XPilot for the iPhone is fully open source -- the source can be downloaded today from the 7b5 Labs website.

Use reflexes, strategy, and cunning -- not to mention dozens of formidable and outlandish weapons and gadgets -- as you battle other players and robots to dominate the world of XPilot in a networked mixture of space physics and sci-fi mayhem. Experience this resurrected classic in a whole new way!

Pilot your ship through a world based on uniquely authentic 2D spaceflight physics: thrust, momentum, and acceleration are as vital to your survival as lasers and cloaking devices.

Navigate through an array of wild and devious spacescapes and arenas teeming with gravity wells, transporters, and automated cannons.

Collect items to build up your ship's capabilities.

Fire heat-seeking missiles, switch on tractor beams at just the right moment to throw your competitors off their game, remotely detonate proximity mines.

Team up to steal your opponents' treasure or simply indulge in random acts of chaos.

Classics, though they may be forgotten for a while, they never lose their potency. Play Doh, Rubik's Cube, boomerangs, semi-legal firecrackers; once perfected, they cannot be imitated or improved upon. XPilot was created during the Internet's adolescence, obsessed over by a few gaming pioneers around the world, and finally lost, waiting quietly to be rediscovered. Groundbreaking technically, it paved the way for today's massively multiplayer online games. But its true genius was its gameplay, unique and never duplicated. Until now. 7b5 Labs has resurrected XPilot with its most technically advanced incarnation yet -- and added a few toys along the way.
