It takes a TotemBall to make a man.


Pterry the Pturtle OWNS you! Just kidding. He's just going to roll you over with his charm.


Pterry is the star of Freeverse Software's upcoming game TotemBall, one-quarter music game, and three-quarters opportunity to do crazy gestures on the the Xbox Live Vision Camera. How come? Well, it's because you control Pterry with your movements on the camera. It also has a bunch of game modes, as the Gamerscore Blog happens to mention:

  • TotemBall – Camera-controlled platforming gameplay – gamers control the characters in the game by moving their hands in the air and gesturing in front of the camera
  • Juggling - Co-op juggling game with one player using Xbox Live Vision and the other player “juggling” totems with the controller
  • Pinball - Play any of the bonus pinball tables that have been unlocked through regular TotemBall play
  • Freeplay – Explore the game with no time pressure and infinite lives – great mode for kids
  • Super Challenge – Play the entire game with one life and a time limit in each level
  • TotemJam – Freely mix and match the gameÂ’s musical totems – another fun exploration game for kids
If you're patient, and you watch the clock, you can start downloading the game as part of Xbox Live Arcade Wednesdays, starting at 1 am PST. Good luck, gamers, and enjoy!

Free?! Huzzah! Wait....

This game was free....somehow I still feel I paid too much for it. The control is so wonky I don't wanna play any more. Thank God I can delete it!
