[GAME] RunMan

Hey guys, let me know what you think about this game. Any suggestions or ideas are welcomed. This is my first game I made for Android. I'm not a graphics designer by any stretch so the graphics and animation looks kinda bland. But please give it a go and tell me what you think.
Thanks!

Pretty cool.

I like it. It reminds me of skifree. Night mode is pretty cool. Works well on my HTC Aria. Lol I think I saw Ikuzo xD

Thanks! The next update will make the game more engaging, I promise.

this is awesome!

Addictive!

Thanks for the support guys, it really means a lot. The next RunMan update has just been released. I'm hoping with this update it'll make the game a lot more engaging. Let me know if i broke anything
Added a new scoring and bonus system, so 30k+ scores won't be uncommon.
Looking to integrate with Facebook and adding achievements next.

Holaaaa. Just downloaded the game:
It's actually pretty fun once you get used to it. It's a GREAT time waster, and night mode ftw.
Keep up the good work, you're gonna go far, kid.

Hey there!
Downloaded and installed your game as you can see mine is a Kaiser and an Android port so I cannot do the shake thingie for getting the dog off me or instruct it to fetch me something.
Had LOTS of fun with it! As I was telling a friend, a simple but very entertaining concept, also addictive.
I know my limitations in hardware but would it be too much to request some hardware buttons for those less fortunate who can't shake?

Thanks for the encouraging words GoCkillaz, I'll be doubling my efforts for the next release.
WarByte: Absolutely. It never occurred to me that some phones didn't have tilt sensors, so this is great info. I'll look into some gesture recognition to play the game solely by touchscreen (changeable in settings or something). Thanks for the valuable info
One thing if anyone could tell me is how the game runs on 1st generation phones it would be greatly appreciated, I know it's almost unplayable on the G1 because of poor framerates... thinking out making it Android 2.1 and above only.

Woohoo! thanks man! This is a really great game. Well I have a second request before you start making changes and some feedback:
I'm on 1.6 and due to something silly that I did I will never be able to use 2.1 and above and though I understand your reasons I'd say my old Kaiser with a ported Android would be less than a G1 however it runs amazingly well, no frame drops at all, fluid, no sound glitches. I have no idea how many Kaiser users install Android and drop Winmo but as I see thousands of views in those threads I am pretty sure we would all be more than happy to be able to run your game, it is just amazing. So basically my request would be to stay on 1.6 if possible. Interestingly enough I thought of getting a G1 and stop using my Kaiser as I wanted a "real" Android phone.
By the way, I can always test and report. Anything that I can help with please count on me.

[Game] The Trivia - Class Project

Hey everyone, my group just finished working on our first android application. We are making it as part of a project for our CST200 class. We decided to make a simple fun to play all around trivia game developed for Android 2.1.
Features:​-Eight categories to choose from with 45 questions per category, that’s a total of 360 questions!
-Trivia games are round based, with five questions per round and a total of three rounds each round getting progressively harder.
-Ability to save a game mid way through
Installation Instructions:​1. Copy TheTrivia.apk to your phones SD card.
2. Next you will need a file manager from the market place, you can use any you want however we tested using “ASTRO File Manager” and found it working.
3. Locate the application in the file manager, open it up and hit install.
4. The application should now be installed to your phone and you should be able to run it just like any other application.
There might be a few bugs, but it should run alright.

I just want to say, its very interesting and it kept my attention, the only part that I was noticing, is the sound when you get an answer wrong, it is a bit excessive. I tried the video game category and got most of them wrong, but then again I havn't played that many games. All in all, it deserves an A.

Like do you mean as the instructions on the main page of the app?

I think that might be a problem with our randomizer, I'll try to look into it.
Almost have the highscores working correctly, really busy with finals but when I have time I'll post an updated version. Also I know some of the answers are actually hardcoded wrong so I'll try to fix some of those too.

Awesome idea, I'll give it a shot and report any bugs.

really cool idea... we need MORE MORE MORE questions tho!

love the concept. i will try this on a couple of phones and leave feedback. thank u for sharing!

You could get a lot of other questions just by getting some IRC trivia bots. The have the questions in txt format. ( or at least to let you browse and select one such file where the questions are nicely formated within a text file. )
Support for QVGA would also be nice.

Not bad.
Just tried your game & it's good but for me i just wish the text for the questions was a little bigger. At least make it the same size as the text in the answers.Thx.

This is a great idea. Would be truly amazing if you could play against friends kind of like wordfeud.

This works great. Installed on 2 wvga phones. Will play more. Only thing I found so far is a wrong answer. A question in sports. An NFL team called the aints should be the Saints not Chiefs. Another thing, I think print should be bigger. Thank you for this app. Would love to see online compitition like trivia at Buffalo wild wings
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

My high scores don't save. When typing my high scores, I have to delete the words in the text box. In the sports question about NFL players decade they got names on their shirts, 2of the answers are both 1970

Any more development planned? This could be really great. I can't believe nothing like this is available yet.

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 nishanthhh! I'm one of the Say What You See developers!
Are you sure it froze? The app downloads quite a bit of data when it's first loaded, so you may need to be patient?
If it did fully crash, it'd be great to know what sort of device and OS version you're using so we can try and fix it for you!
Really like to hear from anyone else about the app too - it's our first Android app, so we really want to make it as great an experience as possible!
Or, y'know, at least have it so that you can play the flipping thing.
Cheers,
Jon

Tried the game and had no fcs. The good thing is that it works and is fun. The bad thing is that its quite difficult cause I never had an iPhone or heard of this game. Just one request, I want to zoom in on the picture more cause its quite small and I have to strain my eyes.

ok I tried this app but as a french guy this is clearly too difficult for me, not to mention im not really a movie fan

Hi Juhan! We'll see if we can increase the magnification a bit, certainly down't want to send you running to the opticians!

Hi Jon_SWYS, I have just sent an email to yourselves via your online form with some suggestions and a bug report.
I will attach the email here so anyone else can also comment on if they have the same problems?
I have a few suggestions and a bug report for the current version.
Suggestions: I have been playing this on my Nexus 7, and because the keyboard takes up quite a bit of room, you can't always see the full, flashing clue as it is obscured by the keyboard. Would there be a way that we could hide the keyboard, while keeping the clue flashing and highlighted?
Possibly being able to scroll while the clue is highlighted would be beneficial too, but that is less of an issue.
Bug report: On my Nexus 7, when I try and buy more coins I get a "Sorry there was a problem making a purchase on this device. Please check that your System is up to date and you have the latest version of Google Play installed. I am running 4.2.1. It works on my Galaxy Nexus running 4.2.
I hope this report helps, and my suggestion makes some sense?

15th of August 2014.
Cordyceps has a foothold in humans across the globe. This fungal-based infection rapidly reproduces in the brain of the host, influencing their actions and eventually resulting in physical deformation.
You're a survivor. You don't know if there's anyone else.
Over the past month you've noticed something strange in the behavior of the infected, they appear to travel in packs; although packs may be the wrong word. A 'Swarm' is a more appropriate way to describe the hundreds of infected pursuing lone survivors.
You don't know when the people you used to call friends are going to come for you but you do know that they will. Armed with nothing more than your own two feet you have to delay the inevitable, but for how long?
This is Swarm.
Please message me about any glitches or errors that occur and I will gladly fix them!
I'm also willing to take any suggestions you have, and will include ideas for new zombies.
A review or a share would help me out a lot, everything in the game including the 'artwork' (I use the term loosely) was produced by a single developer.
-----Copy and paste from the Play Store, and yes I'm hopping on the 'cordyceps' hype train after experiencing the brilliant 'The Last of Us'. Everything in this game was made by one person who is fairly new to it all. The game is somewhat a work in progress and I will no doubt add more feature and more types of zombies in the coming days. The game is struggling at the moment so I appreciate any buys I get, hence the lowered price to £0.50, this may go up as the game becomes more polished and sells more!
Thanks a lot for reading, I'd appreciate any ideas, and would love your 50p's
If an experienced member of the forum wants a review copy I'd be happy to issue one!
EDIT: Screenshots!

I've got them both.
Concerning the game: It sounds interesting, but have you thought of providing a trial version? And some more pictures in the Play Store showing off more of the game would be nice, too.
I'm not gonna buy an app, no matter what it costs, out of the blue sky, without trying it first. You cannot rely on your reputation as developer, as we all don't know you.

Atm is exactly the same as the paid version is, however once the trial version in finished I will being taking a more RPG style approach with the paid version and it'll have things the free version doesn't. I don't know if I described that well but its all explained on the store page.
