Kweekies - Awesome Virtual Pet Game For SmartPhones

Your Smartphone is going to get busier. Featuring Kweekies, a game for Smartphones which uses the latest technology, Augmented Reality.

Intro to the new technology:

Augmented Reality uses Video Camera and fuses computer graphics with real time footage. This basically means that the games you'll be playing uses the real time footage as a game background or rather the environment for the games. The AR technology automatically adds computer generated graphics onto the live video imagery.

Augmented Reality uses haptics, sounds, graphics etc to add information to the screen. It's like seeing a different view of the world with virtual elements that of course, could only happen on the Smartphone.

Now back to the game...
