Monster Win For Matmi

Monday, October 26th, 2009

Monster Pinball won the Gold Award for Best Mobile/Handheld Game at the Rose Design Awards in Nottingham on Friday. Monster Pinball is the first foray into mobile gaming for Matmi New Media, who is best known for its viral advergames and is by far the most advanced pinball game available for the iPhone.

Monster Pinball fought off stiff competition to take the top accolade in the newly created gaming section of the awards. The award comes just as a new version of Monster Pinball, with rebalanced gameplay, improved sound and Facebook Connect functionality is set to hit the App Store.

Described by Touch Arcade as “A Beautiful Pinball Experience”, Monster Pinball was Apple’s Pick of the Week less than a month after its release, as well as receiving top marks from Mac World and Appvee.com and Pocket Gamer’s gold award.

A winning shot.

Monday, October 26th, 2009

Hot on the heels of the award-winning Monster Pinball, Matmi is releasing Snowy’s Christmas Pinball for the iPhone and iPodTouch in time for the holidays. Snowy’s Christmas Pinball builds on Matmi’s existing expertise in both Christmas games – having created the most popular Christmas viral game in the world for three years running – and being masters of the pinball genre, thus bringing something a little different to the holiday season.

Building on the pioneering technology created for Monster Pinball, Snowy’s Christmas Pinball is even faster than its predecessor and has three feature-packed tables starring some of the most recognisable Christmas icons around. Snowy’s Christmas Pinball has three selectable difficulty levels, as well as linked scoreboards that let you upload your high-score directly to Facebook and, of course, the amazing art and sound that Matmi is known for.

About Snowy’s Christmas Pinball:
3 fun packed, interconnected tables with varied and unique goals and deep and engaging gameplay
60fps giving extra-smooth gameplay
Realistic physics engine makes the game even faster than Monster Pinball.

On a slightly lighter note, I also love this French stop-frame animation. Lovely story, wonderful character, very French.
