could you be an urban outlaw?

We have finally got round to arranging large scale experimental evaluation of our research project the serendipitous proximity shoot-em-up  game Mobslinger.

We have therefore just put a beta version of the game on our site for testing by any one with a Bluetooth enabled phone who has a bit of time to waste with a few friends and fancy them selves as an urban outlaw. Currently it’s a J2ME version with only Bloodbath mode implemented but the S60 version will follow soon. We are going to put a league table (to enter your kill rate) on the site in the next few days together with the all important feedback form .

Although the first beta has limited game depth we would still welcome any comments from would be outlaws particularly on the following research questions:

whether its fun,

the social/work scenarios in which the played the game,

whether they played with friends or encountered strangers,

how it could be improved,

Other comments relating to probable porting issues; bugs, etc are also useful.

 

And to those of you who do download the game DRAW!
