Hungama Games brings in the official ‘A Flying Jatt game’

Hungama Games, the gaming arm of Hungama Digital Media Entertainment, has developed the official game for Balaji Motion Pictures’ upcoming superhero movie – A Flying Jatt.  Lead actor Tiger Shroff, and Director Remo D’Souza launched the official game at an event held in Mumbai.

Available on Android and iOS smartphones, A Flying Jatt game is an endless runner game with an aim to travel as far as possible, collect coins, and avoid obstacles. Also available on Tata Sky and Airtel Digital TV, it features the three lead characters of the film, Flying Jatt (Tiger Shroff), Kirti (Jacqueline Fernandez) and Raka (Nathan Jones) and players can play the game as their favourite character. It is also linked with social features such as Facebook and Twitter score sharing and allows players to challenge their friends across these platforms.

The game also comes with a multi-player mode allowing gaming enthusiasts to challenge other players. The multi-player mode is divided in two sections – the One-on-One and the Knock-Out challenge. The Knock Out challenge allows players to race against four others and the player in the last place gets eliminated automatically every 30 seconds. The last man standing wins and is the Champion. Players can also use different objects to power up while racing.

Commenting on the game, Tiger Shroff said, “I had a blast playing a superhero in the film, and it’s extremely exciting to see such a unique avatar of myself in this game. I have tried my hand at it, and I think that the game is simple to play and very engaging. I am definitely going to enjoy playing it during my free time. Awaiting the film’s release, I hope both the game and the film is loved by everyone, especially kids.”

Director Remo D’Souza said, “It has been such a fun experience working on this film with Tiger, Jacqueline and Nathan. It is my first superhero film and I am humbled by the love and appreciation we have received so far. I have played the game with Tiger and we have had such a fun time challenging each other. I hope everyone enjoys the Flying Jatt game as much as we have. The animation is great with the characters resembling Tiger, Jacqueline and Nathan’s characters in the film.”

Speaking on the launch Hungama.com, CEO, Siddhartha Roy said, “As much as Tiger and Remo have enjoyed making the film, we have enjoyed making the game. Games have increasingly become an integral part of the movie marketing and promotion plan. After successfully launching games like Brothers, Krrish 3, Happy New Year and so on we are very excited to bring the ‘Flying Jatt’ game for young fans of the movie and gaming enthusiasts alike. We hope that everybody who plays the game enjoys the experience as much as Tiger and Remo have today.”

Although the game’s trailer shows off the superhero fighting the villain, the game’s genre is racing (?). Speaking to Animationxpress, Roy asserted that the game has been designed as an endless runner game to engage more audience (the kids). He further said that the game has a mix of racing, superpowers and passing hurdles as a part and also, ‘games like these have far more marketing value’. The game has a multiplayer feature which makes it more interesting, currently the game has a leader-board structure which places you in ranks in regards to your performance. The game has been laced with in-game purchases and the studio plans to continue support for the game as long as they have enough consumers.
