Finger Football AR

Bringing Football into Augmented Reality

Finger Football AR is an interactive iOS game that brings a virtual football field into the real world using Apple's augmented reality technologies. Built with Swift, ARKit, and RealityKit, the game transforms your surroundings into a playable football experience.

The concept is simple: aim, swipe, and flick a virtual football through the goalposts to score. Players interact with a 3D football and field anchored in their physical environment, creating an intuitive experience that blends digital gameplay with the real world.

I designed the football field texture as well as the app icon myself in Sketch. I wanted it to look and feel comfortable and compelling. The app icon is visible on the field.

Development Highlights

I developed Finger Football AR to explore how augmented reality can turn simple mobile game mechanics into immersive, spatial experiences.

The project involved combining native iOS development with 3D rendering, AR tracking, gesture-based interactions, and game state management. A key focus was making the experience accessible: players can begin interacting with the virtual football using familiar swipe gestures without learning complicated controls.
