Free Tennis is a tennis simulation developed by a former tennis player. Its main feature is realism. For gameplay, this means you have total control over the shot parabola. For graphics, it means players have realistic gestures. For AI, it means real tactics. Netplay is available.

With version 0.3.15, the author believes gameplay is complete enough to be judged. However, before you judge it, please become a bit skilled (at least enough to beat the computer in -realistic mode at difficulty 210). At first, the subtle gameplay can go unnoticed.

The objective of the game is to colonize the New World. You start the game in 1492 with a vessel and some colonists. The goal is to build many colonies (with the help of Europe) so that you can live off the land after a while. Once the majority of the people are behind you, you can declare your independence. The King will then send over his forces from Europe and try to gain control over your colonies. If you survive the attack you've won the game.
