FootPOWR launch at Casual Connect (Seattle) July 23
July 18, 2009 - FootGaming LLC has developed a new sort of
peripheral for PC and Mac, the FootPOWR. See it in action at /Family You simply plug the FootPOWR into a
computer’s USB port, stand on the mat and move your feet
to move the cursor or to input specified keyboard input. Any
computer can become an exergame console in minutes.
The FootPOWR can play hundreds of existing online casual games, educational software, virtual world and online games. There is no need to change the game code in any way. While a player is using the FootPOWR peripheral, all steps executed during game play are logged in our patented system (online or in the local computer). Logs let a player know how many miles, steps and calories have been generated. Games become immersive, even able to deliver fitness with the fun.
Suddenly computer games that are played by gamers of all ages at home, at school and at work can provide energizing, fun, and active choices without changing favorite games in any way. FootGaming CEO, Judy Shasek, explains, “We love our casual games, but sometimes after hours at the computer both the mind and the body crave some oxygen and endorphins for a boost of energy and focus. FootGaming provides a choice. Anyone can choose to move during a large or small percentage of computer game play, virtual world exploration or online competitions.”
FootGaming is an easy choice in schools, at home and in the workplace. Anyone can demo FootGaming at Casual Connect (Seattle) – set up on a laptop takes 2 minutes and you’ll “get” the unique value of the FootGaming experience immediately. FootGaming seeks web traffic sharing, affiliate sales, link exchange or custom programs for school, home and workplace game designers and virtual world properties.
Play with your feet – and casual gaming is suddenly even more fun, while delivering fitness benefits, a wider range of audience, new revenue opportunities and the coolest way to play games. Thumbs are so yesterday – be sure the casual gamers at your website “play with their feet.”
