    While there have been Google Glass apps for lock screens, the Tesla Model S and even The New York Times, we've been wondering when we'd see a traditional game. Today, the wondering stops. GlassBattle is a Battleship-style, voice controlled, turn-based affair using the wearable's Mirror API. Sadly it won't be available to the public until developer Brick Simple's API quota limitations are lifted, but that doesn't stop us from fantasizing about gaming while we do other stuff. Like, you know, playing video games. Yes, we hear you loud and clear Xzibit. To see people game while grocery shopping and walking around a pond, hit the video after the break.

    Walking around a pond on a beautiful summer day is just as boring as grocery shopping – but never fear, Google Glass is here. Mobile app developer Brick Simple used the Mirror API to create GlassBattle, a two-player, turn-based, synchronous Battleship-style game on Google Glass. GlassBattle isn't available to the Google Glass public yet, but once the Mirror API quota limitations are lifted, Brick Simple will launch the game for everyone to enjoy. So buy some extra glasses cleaner and man the torpedoes.
