Jelly Car (Originally known as JelloCar) is a popular game developed for multiple platforms, and later ported to the iPhone
and iPod Touch
(on which it is arguably most well-known), in which the player must control a small car across a two-dimensional landscape whilst maintaining balance by means of (in the case of platforms on which it is supported) accelerometers.
The game features soft body physics which gives it its distinctive gameplay
and style, setting it apart from other games of a similar genre. The game has proven extremely popular on the App Store, having reached top ratings and feature-status.
On September 19, 2009, an update to the iPhone/iPod touch version of the game was released, which included a video promoting the future release of JellyCar 2. Some users reported that the video did not play for them, and instead simply played the music from the video, followed by a graphic announcing the upcoming game. On 9/24/09 version 1.5.1 was released to fix this bug.
An upcoming sequel, Jelly Car 2, has been rated by the ESRB
for the PlayStation Portable
, Nintendo DSi
, Wii
, iPhone
, and iPod Touch
.
Jelly Car 3 was released on the App Store in February 2011.
