SteamPunk Hockey for iPhone charts Top 25 Games/Family/Free in 31 countries

Prague, Czech Republic - February 15, 2010 - SteamPunk Hockey v1.3 for iPhone is currently charting Top 25 Games/Family/Free category in 31 countries including Canada, USA and UK, due to the promotional efforts of OpenFeint and FreeAppADay.com.

“I’m a fan of 19th-century craftsmanship, Romantic-era artists, and science-fiction concepts, and was out of work in fall 2009. My personal and creative best options were to try something new and challenging.” Kenn faced down unemployment and created a game to redefine the touch hockey genre, opening it up to consistent thematic and narrative possibilities.

SteamPunk Hockey uses various game pieces to redirect the disc's trajectory and redefine the gameplay for each level, much like a pinball machine or labyrinth game. The genre style allows for beauty and verisimilitude when introducing new obstacles, robot characters and narrative themes.

Version 1.3 of SteamPunk Hockey for iPhone is a physics-driven touch environment using the open-source Cocos2D for iPhone and Box2D game and physics frameworks.

Kenneth Mayfield is a graduate of the 1991 Nova Scotia College of Art and Design and a Canadian residing in the Czech Republic, near the UNESCO heritage city of Prague.
