PUBLIC BETA TEST
PacMap is a location-based game for Android phones.
To play the game you need a GPS signal and a working internet connection. There also have to be some streets nearby.
Your goal is to eat all the dots. For each dot you will get a point. But beware! Ghosts will try to catch you. Try to avoid them as long as possible.
Warning!
Don't play this game on a busy street! Don't put yourself in danger! Obey the traffic rules and regulations!
search in market for "pacmap" or use this qrcode:

Nice idea for a game! Will give it a whirl!
I have a question.
How to control the pacman to move?
The game right now looks designed more for city driving but I think this would be an awesome idea for an exercise game for walkers/runners. If you can find a way to speed up game play for pedestrians (maybe dots are smaller or closer together?), this would be a lot of fun. The neighborhoods around where I live have a lot of cul de sacs and little side roads, which would be perfect mazes.
What about Multiplayer-Mode? Someone should be able to connet and play the ghosts, that would be really cool

+ Limited, adjustable Gaming Area. That Pacman can't flee over an highway.

Would be hard to implement. Also the game would become hide-and-seek.

There is a time limit and the ghost will still chase you if you leave the gaming area.
After I fixed the remaining bugs, I will try to implement a kind of "unlimited mode" for walkers/runners.
Anyway if the game is working or not. The idea is awesome.
This is indeed a novel idea, and I'm sure will be quite fun for drivers, while they're being SUPER safe of course...
I just tested it out though, and it seems to keep my GPS connection active even after closing the app? I also terminated it through a task killer, and the GPS icon was still in my status bar...Understandable as it's still in beta-form, but just wanted to notify bompo and see if anyone else had experienced this.
Thanks for this great app+idea bompo!
Really really cool idea for a remake of Pacman.
I love it.
And yes: Multiplayer would be really cool too.

Great idea really, congrats.
Besides GPS turn-of problem as scar45 stated, I had the problem that the app did not update my current location.
I see my self at home, although I'm at the office And I checked my current location on Latitute as upto date.
And I also thing that the multi-player option would be great, collecting yellow dots with a friend on bicycle will a lot fun
Thanks Pompo
nice idea dude ^^
Sounds like awesomeness to me. Awesome app!

ew that one looks like crap
I'm trying to make something like this. The wallpaper will basically be a randomly generated course with mario playing it very pro-like. Imagine TAS playthrough speed. Every once in a while the course will end and another will start with a different theme (outside, underground, castle).
Hope I can do it. I'm not very far anymore
It would be really cool, hope you can do it!
Something like a video playing in the background...
I'm in final stages of testing the wallpaper as we speak. The thing's a battery sucker (Mario's AI is not easy on the phone's processor) but it looks really great!
I actually often find myself staring at the homescreen, watching Mario play himself...
Will publish shortly. Will probably make a seperate thread.

Interesting little app that I found by accident on the market while looking for apps late one night. As i downloaded the app I did notice it had some crazy permissions "system_alert_window,read_phone_state,access_coarse_location" which I denied with lucky patcher. Just a heads up to anyone who download's the app to do hahaha. Now to the app in a nutshell its a easy way to find and download classic games really nice looking UI too, so far I've seen Super Mario Bros., Final Fight, Mega Man and my favorite metal slug 2 just to name a few. They claim its over 1000+ games but I don't think so, but theres variety. This app is more so for people who just want to play now without all the hassle because it pretty much does it all for you, just find a game, then download it and play nothing else is needed. Also for my Xperia Play Fam!!!! :good: When you start up a game just map the buttons really easy, then tap the semi clear keyboard on your in-game screen to hide the onscreen keyboards then your set. Enjoy!
Below are screenshots.

this was posted like a month ago.
and the thread was... uh.. Deleted. i don't know why but i became suspiscious i uninstalled the app
I downloaded this app some week ago and it's just amazing!! I can play Street Fighter 2, R-Type, Metal Slug, Riden, and so much other old games!! The server ia unbelievable fast for download and the list of games availables is constantly updating, this app is simply all that what you need if you love gaming and don't like to wait a download of massive sd card data.
Just install the Happy Bay, search for your favorite gamr, download it and that's it! All in less than 5minutes!!! The pad is so easy to configure, the app is simply awesome!!:good:
I wonder how long it will take for google to gank this off the play store, since its essentially a ROM distribution platform with built in emulators.

Who knows cause its all free but if it does the developer of the app has a site for the .apk
Ive been running some test on the overall of the app, for security reason will do a follow up soon
Great! Was looking for something like this. thanks for sharing.
Tried it out, I like it but do not love it, simply because there is is some lag and sound stuttering. I know I should`nt have really high expectations, but personally I would prefer a proper emulator on my phone and know I`m getting the best my phone can provide me.
If I`m making no sense blame my beer lol
Seems ok. If someone knows how to get rid of the on-screen controls let me know.
I've tried a few emulators and this seems like a good way of getting games in one easy-to-choose/play place. I just hope it's safe.
Legal? Who cares? Get it while you can.

Hi,
for the last couple of months I've been spending my weekends developing a retro-style starfield-themed wallpaper. Now it's finished and I'd appreciate if you could take a few minutes to check it out. It is free, does not contain ads of any kind and it does not require any permissions.

No, I tried that during development and it wasn't very spectacular. But if the interest is big enough (decent amount of dowloads) I would like to add other 3D shapes like stars, spheres, pyramids etc, maybe an option to load your own custom 3D objects.

You guys sure like your Windows 95 Well, if the app is downloaded by a reasonable amount of people and I know I am not doing the work in vain, I will do a poll or so to let the communitiy decide what the next feature should be.
Sorry to bump this again, but I'm noticing that quite a few spanish-speaking people are downloading the application. I'd be really happy if a native spanish-speaker could take the time to translate the preferences menu. The whole text is about one screen page. I attached the strings.xml file below, so you can have a look. I will mention you by name or by alias in the google app store, if you like.
P.S.: You don't have to translate words like "Starfield Live Wallpaper", of course
Edit: other languages are welcome too!
*bump* added images!
Hi, I`m a student from germany who made his first game. I have no idea how to get people to play it. Therefore, I`ve decided to post it here. It would mean a lot to me if you could try it and in the best case, like it.
Its a mini game for short breaks (while waiting for the bus). Just one endless mode (depending on your skills) with increasing difficulty. I like especially this kind of game. Normally I dont play games on phones except those mini games with the intention to beat the others highscore
Have a look at this video: Benny Blowfish in action
and if it drew your attention. I would like you to play it and leave your feedback, whether its positive or negative. Every feedback is good feedback

Wow, thank you guys thats nice! Finally some feedback I hope you can enjoy it!
And I`d like to know your scores? I could give you some hints to improve
I like it, simple but very nicely done.
It'd be nice if there was an offset between Benny and your finger - it'd make it easier to see what you're doing and be nice to see the main character!
Good work.

Hi There!
I'm very excited to present my new game. Empire Under Fire. I have been developing this game for several months using Unity3D Game Engine, now its finally ready to publish.
Its a classic Tower Defense with beautiful graphics (I think so ) and some great features.
I think it is definitely worth trying. Moreover this game is TOTALY FREE. NO HIDDEN IN APP PURCHASES, NO ADS.
It is highly recommended to run this game on mid/high-end devices, with dual/quad core cpu.
Game uses about 400-500MB of RAM so your phone should have 1GB of RAM (at least ~780MB).
Feel free to share with me your thoughts about this game, any bugs, performance issues, etc...
I would love to discuss with you about my game. :angel:

Game promotion
Hey Guys,
Do you know how can I promote my game?
You can try sites like phonearena, androidpolice, phandroid and so on... They suggest some games once a week.
I think the best you can do is to be active in here

Do you think that exit button is really necessary? Most people press home button when they want to 'exit' app and its quicker way than going back to main menu and tapping on exit button.
Very, very nice graphics in your game! :good:
Thanks
Btw, I have just unpublished my game, because of getting a lot of bad reviews caused by game crashes.
I'll republish empire under fire when I'll fix this bug. For now I don't have any idea where is this bug coming from :crying:
Published again
Ok, I solved crashing issue (which affected many devices) and published my game again.
Sorry for that.
If any of you guys still experience crashes or other issues please let me know.
Apart from that I'm still waiting for your opinions and feature suggestions.
