Tennis Australia is taking its kids’ starter program, MLC Tennis Hot Shots into cyberspace with the launch of its very own game for iOS devices, including the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad.

Tennis Hot Shots, a new role-playing game inspired by titles such as PokemonTM and Mario TennisTM, is now available to download from the App Store. It will also be available to play as a flash game on the new MLC Hot Shots website in late November 2011.

Targeted at kids aged 10-and-under, gamers customize their own player, train them in mini-games to improve their speed, power and accuracy stats before taking to the MLC Tennis Hot Shots Arena to challenge a friend or other players from around the world.

Players can collect increasingly powerful special moves such as ‘Cyclonic Slice’ and ‘Firework Forehand’ as well as stat buffs like ‘Gorilla Sweat’ and ‘Tiger’s Claw’.

Players must work their way to the top of each league, earning experience points with each match and leveling up their character before challenging difficult end of level bosses to progress to the next league.

The game has been designed to support the MLC Tennis Hot Shots program, aiming to get children on court and having fun. In the past 12 months more than 240,000 kids have enjoyed an MLC Tennis Hot Shots experience at one of the 940 official venues around Australia.

The Tennis Hot Shots game was created by Tennis Australia and Melbourne-based game developers Millipede Creative Development.

“The game mechanic of Hot Shots is perfect for the mobile platform,” explains Millipede Creative Development Director Wil Monte. “Similar to the popular ‘With Friends’ games on the App Store, users can challenge friends whenever they wish and not rely on them being online at that very moment.”
