Tapinator's "Angry Shark Simulator" Launches on Google Play

NEW YORK, Aug. 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Tapinator, Inc. (OTC: TAPM) today announced that its game, "Angry Shark Simulator," has launched on Google Play. The game is a new and innovative spin on Tapinator's 3D simulator engine. 

To coincide with this year's Shark Week, beginning August 10^th, Tapinator has released its latest game Angry Shark Simulator for the Android mobile platform. Shark Week is a television event hosted by the Discovery Channel, which originally attempted to raise awareness for the species by portraying live footage of the animal. Since then it has morphed into a cultural trend, and is now the longest-running program event on cable. A large portion of Shark Week's relevance comes from viral marketing on social networks.

Drawing inspiration from Shark Week and pop culture focused on sharks, such as films, Tapinator set out to create a game in which the user plays as a shark, and harnesses its almost mythological awesomeness. Each level consists of an amazing 3D environment, which must be traversed in order to find unwitting victims to eat, as well as the pesky hunters who attempt to rid the waters of your menace. To take a bite and try out Angry Shark Simulator, please navigate to the Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tapinator.angry.sharksimulator3D.

The game is coming soon to iOS and the Amazon App Store.

To view Tapinator's portfolio, please navigate to the iOS, Google Play, or Amazon App Store and search for "Tapinator." Or, for a full listing of Tapinator games with links to each app store, please go to Tapinator.com.
