― NEW IN THIS RELEASE ―――
New Features:
- Commentator: there's now a commentary introduction for each match of the World Tour in Singles (plus the Country Cup doubles); at the TET level and above, you'll get one unique intro per match for the whole year, both for men & women!
- Cutscene: while listening to the commentator's introductions, the camera is flying by around the stadium (except if you have activated the Background 2D) while the players are warming up.
Bug Fixes:
- Gameplay: the Early Ball Talent was disabled in the Training Club.
- Player: the CRC wasn't correctly calculated if you had put a .5 to a Talent value in your Tennis.ini (so the CRC calculation is changed again and the old CRCs aren't valid anymore).
- Audio: even disabled, the Commentaries were still played.
― GAMEPLAY ―――
Tennis Elbow is a series of tennis video games developed by France-based firm Mana Games. Its first version was released in 1996 and as of May 2015 it is currently on its 2013 version, available for Windows, Mac & Linux platforms.
The game is simulation oriented, and is often seen as being the one offering the most realistic tennis experience in term of rallies and tennis sensations.
The most noticeable particularity of its gameplay is that the users have to hold down the strike button till their player actually strikes the ball, unlike most other tennis games that require the users to release the strike button earlier.
After more than 2 years spent in Steam Greenlight, the 2013 version finally got released on Steam on March 13, 2015.
The game is regularly updated and as of July 2018 has seen 10 major updates for the 2013 edition.
The next edition will be called Tennis Elbow 4.
