Please visit the Digital-Double website below to see a video of this game in action, its the best way to describe it! This game is fantastic on an iPhone4 or iPodTouch4, its REALLY AWSOME on the iPad2!

IMPORTANT NOTICE: This game requires 4th generation devices (specifically, iPhone4, iPodTouch 4th Generation, or iPad2), it is NOT compatible with lower spec. devices due to hardware requirements.

With POCKET JETS (AR) you take full 360 degree flight-control over a futuristic Gyro-Jet as you steer it through the REAL-WORLD environment surrounding YOU!

Pocket Jets uses the gyroscope in your device to convincingly and smoothly blend 3D graphics and sound with your camera’s view to deliver a truly immersive experience.

Fly your Jet over YOUR home, around YOUR garden, or in YOUR living room, wherever you are, its like you are flying a remote-controlled plane, only bigger and louder. If its too dark to use the camera you can choose one of the built in virtual locations instead.

A Training-Mode allows you to learn how to control and track your Jets movements. Gyro-Jets are loud and fast - you can perform high-speed overhead passes, acrobatic barrel-rolls, and noisy low fly-bys. An on-screen compass helps you to know exactly where your Jet is at any time.

But thats not all... because you are not alone in the skies!

Thats OK though, your Jet is equipped with advanced weaponry.

A Target-Practice mode allows you to try attacking formations against Enemy Jets and use the onboard combat systems to target, and take them down with heat-seeking missiles and short-range mini-guns.

In Evade-Practice you become the target!  Here you will master tactical moves needed to prevent Enemies from locking on to you, or failing that, avoid their fire with evasive moves.

POCKET JETS (AR) includes different enemies, ranging from passive Missile-Fodder through to Elite AI opponents who mean business, and will be second guessing your next move. Once you think youve mastered the training, you can switch to Dog-Flight Modes and engage in full-scale battles for air supremacy.

Wherever you are, inside or out, POCKET JETS (AR) brings the action to YOU in a unique experience that is only possible with handheld devices. Good luck!
