Handball Revolution: 7 Meter Shoot Out
Handball Revolution was the working title of the Handball simulation game which has been developed by my ex-company Liquid Fire Arts. It has been presented on some events like “Deutsche Handball Länderspiele 2008″ (in cooperation with Hamburg Mannheimer).
7 Meter Shoot Out is a mini game where you can throw balls from the seven meter point into the goal (like 11-meters in soccer). After every throw the teams switch. So you play one time the thrower and the next time the goalkeeper. You can play versus a friend on the same mashine or versus the computer. A gamepad is recommended.
Play one of the legendary handball players Carlos Lima, Markus Baur or Daniel Sauer (thanks for their cooperation).
Thanks to Metric Minds for the motion capturing.
Thanks to Dynamedion for the creation of the sound effects.
