About Icarus
Icarus is a game utilizing the accelerometer of your Android device to let you see how long you can suspend the phone in free fall. Just press "fly" and it will time any weightlessness it experiences. See your own high scores and how well you're doing in the global competition. Submit your best scores to the database, and look them up at the web page.
Be creative! You can secure the phone to your body and see how long YOU can be in free fall. How about a competition with your friends on a trampoline? Or you could send it up in a balloon in a shock resistant box (we do not recommend actually doing this, and remember that you do this at your own risk). And yes, if you bring your phone to space, you'll win.
This app was made during a weekend of hacking at Ninjadev's Ninjacon 12.2, and we hope you'll challenge your friends and have as much fun as we had making it.

This seems like a horrible idea and a great way to break a phone. I'm excited and can't wait to try it. Very creative and well done

A fun game to challenge friends in. And you can do creative stuff like see who can jump highest. The ui still needs a lot of work though

As the title insinuates this app is a great way to spend your afternoon, throwing your phone into the air. The catch is when it's coming down and you have to catch it. They do not tell you about that.
