  • Very smart You can make a whole prank collection with different apps. Keep up the good work!

    Thanks for that. I have actually started Tic-Tac-Toe already!

    It would probably suit that game well. More coding logic, but still simple enough to completely control the outcome. (to a draw at least)

  • My second game is now live on Google Play. It is a simple prank game of Rock, Paper Scissors.

    You will lose every time you play. The game cheats.

    BUT! if you tap, or hold one finger, in the large blank area in the lower half of the screen, before you press PLAY, you will win every game.

    I tested this with my teenagers. I showed one how it works and she went straight over to her sister to see to try it.

    What happened was the second teenager got the sh#t's that she couldn't win and said it was dumb. First teenager said she wins all the time and then wins 4 times in a row.

    Second teenager tries (and fails) again while first one laughs and keeps saying. "You must be crap at this. Here, I'll show you again!"

    I think the phone was actually thrown in disgust.

  • Thanks for the idea Silverforce.

    I haven't always cared for clones myself, but you do raise a good point about money!

    It doesn't hurt to take a simple game design like this or flappy bird to practice you skills.

    Also, it feels good to actually finish a project every now and then!

  • I've just added this to Amazons App Store as well. I was expecting a painful process but ended up finding Amazon easy to deal with.

    I also updated my my store icon to maintain a bit more consistency.

  • Thanks for the comments all.

    I would like to try publishing on the apple store. Might give that a go before to long. (Just to say I have!)

    I'd also like to take credit for the graphics, but I think this really is a good example of spending some money to get exactly what you want.

    Not taking away from self created stuff (or some excellent free stuff), but for me buying something that was complete and exactly the look I was after was worthwhile.

    onur, The game saves when you reach level 8, 18 and 30... I've not gotten anywhere near 30 myself!

  • First Construct 2 and Android game is now up on the Play Store.

    Very happy with Construct 2, it is much more powerful than I expected when I downloaded it a couple of months ago.

    The game was inspired by an old arcade game "Bank Panic" which I played way to much as a teenager. The design ended up going in a different direction, but it still comes down to having to make quick decisions under pressure. Shooting evil Robots and not shooting the soldiers.

    Really could have worked on this forever, but sometimes you just need to finish things!

    I also don't have the time these days to design graphics so I purchased the sprite packs from CartoonSmart. It did cost a couple of dollars but I think it was worth it to get a much more professional look. I was finding the free sprites available on the web (and my own design) limiting.

    Please let me know what you think.
