FlipSide5 have re-launched their iPhone lineup which includes Touch4, Tic-Tac-Touch and (the recently reviewed on whatsoniphone) Touch Hockey.  Which by the way, we tried earlier this week over the WiFi network and it worked like a charm.  Each iPhone connected seamlessly to the other and it added a whole new level of entertainment (especially hearing the sounds coming out simultaneously from 2 different iPhones).

As part of this re-launch, FlipSide5 has brought this same WiFi multi-player local networking support found in Touch Hockey to all of their iPhone games. Among the highlights of this are "one-tap play" technology, instant messaging and online gaming support. FlipSide5’s "One-tap play" technology is a simple way to enable two iPhones to instantly connect over a local network with a single button tap.

This as been a big week for FlipSide5 who also released Touch Hockey, their first arcade multi-player game this week.

According to Michael Sanford, President of FlipSide5, Inc., Touch Hockey is on pace to eclipse the one million download mark in just over one week.

"Our strategy has always been to be a top 10 iPhone game company by delivering best-of-breed social and online games.“ Sanford notes, ”Touch Hockey solidifies this strategy in a big way. The same engine that drives Touch Hockey is embedded in Touch4 and Tic-Tac-Touch. We have already licensed this technology and are extending our licensing efforts. We have exciting projects in our pipeline. The best is yet to come."
