How To Shoot Angry Birds In Space

This is the first ever game announcement and gameplay footage from space! This Angry Birds Space presentation is brought to you by NASA’s Don Pettit from the International Space Station orbiting Earth.

In this video the first Angry Birds gameplay is shown as well. Rovio’s Peter Vesterbacka has described the gameplay’s lack of gravity in space as still exciting, because “there’s zero gravity in space, but planets and gravity wells make it more fun.”

In the video Mr. Pettit adds that “we’re seeing all of this in a weightless environment, which is what Angry Birds Space will look like, with gravitational fields from planetary bodies.” This planet gravitational pull is also visible in the screenshot shown above.

Here’s the Angry Birds Space: NASA announcement explaining how to shoot Angry Birds in space!

Angry Birds Space will be available from March 22nd, 2012. No platforms have been announced yet, but presumably it’ll be released on iOS devices first (iPod Touch, iPhone & iPad).
