Shuffle fun - for everyone
A shuffleboard experience on mobile phones based on real physics with multiple control methods
- Flick with finger taking into account acceleration
- Manual spin control mode
- Unrealistic but fun 'slingshot'
NOTE
The app is in active development
It hasn't been released yet!
Modern graphics - Unreal Engine 4 powered
Accurate modeling of a real shuffleboard table (18 feet regulation size)
Physically-based rendering on mobile platforms using the latest UE4 engine
Realistic materials, reflections, and shadows
Multiplayer action
2 players on the same device - taking turns
[EXPERIMENTAL] 2 players over the internet with simple XMPP chat driven syncronisation; cross-play capable, very low bandwidth demand - but can go out of sync relatively easy
Open Source - free to use and improve
The app and its associated source code are all open-sourced and hosted on Github. Any programmer with UE4 game development experience can contribute, bug fix and evolve the project

Fun experiments - AR, VR ...
AR (Augmented Reality) prototype
A special game mode allows putting the shuffleboard table into any real-life environment using the phone camera. First, the floor needs to be detected, after which a touch will add the table matching its actual dimensions!
More planned:
Shared-world/Multiplayer AR, VR (Virtual Reality), bowling mode!
Work in progress - always growing
The project began as a hobby and an experiment
By now a solid foundation has been established that will allow rapid development
The project production is tracked using Azure Dev Ops dev.azure.com/valentin-galea/Shuffl
