App Description
Connect 4 is an enjoyable classic, but now, thanks to Android technology, you can enjoy Connect 4 with an interesting twist. Gravity Wins is based on the two-player game, however every few rounds, the board rotates changing the physics, allowing the pieces to fall into new positions depending on the gravity orientation. Now that can be a game changer.
To win, you need four of your stones in a line. The line can be horizontal, vertical, or diagonal. The active or winning player is highlighted at the top of the screen. The number in the upper-right hand corner tells you how many rounds are left until the next field spin.
Currently, two people play on one Android or one person against a AI-Player

App to SD enabled
Enjoy the classic game, Connect 4, but now with a twist
Try to line up 4 of your stones while alternating turns with your opponent
Watch the board rotate every few rounds creating a shift in stones
Play against a Friend or against a Computer Player

Thanks for the post!! It's an fun game to play with nice affects!!

Amazing Concept!
I'll go try it now..
It's a pretty neat and uniguq game-mechanic. that gravity-twist that you give every four turns (is the time period fixed?). Maybe, you could randomize it and pump up the AI to make it more challenging.
Nice Game, though!
Good Work!

Thanks guys for your feedback

Update 1.8
Hey Folks, new Update is out again
this time we added more AI-Levels to the game to make it a little bit more challenging.
Also we added a Poll about a question concerning the multiplayer.
You can also always comment here about that.
Also check out the new review from Android Police

For the matter of the online multiplayer mode, please see the Poll in the Settings of the game. We try to decide what would be the way to integrate it.

does the android market tell you that? because we already tested Gravity Wins on a HD2. We are not really sure how we can tell the market that it should allow the installation on any device, because the engine can scale on any screen.
If you like I can send you the APK directly. Just PM me

I just uploaded new version that fixes a bug with ad placement on phones with high density screen (my detection of tablets was wrong - I forgot about high density phones). I work on new levels, but it takes time - I have to make new graphics (most are public domain images from openclipart.org but I have to make many more) and music and design levels.
I wonder if Feint would be viewed positively? I personaly dislike it, so I didn't try to add it yet...

Ah, no wonder the ad keep bugging me from playing the game. Downloading the latest version right now.

Dig it, thx. nice job!

Nice game.

This is strange. I see Motorola Atrix (Olympus) on supported devices list and it's Tegra2 (so it's more than OK for this game) but there is no MB860 on the list - not on the supported list and not on the unsupported list - strange. Edit: maybe it was only a temporary problem with the Market? It had some problems yesterday.

Ok.. found the problem!!
User Error!!
I forgot I had changed my LCD density from 240 to 215, when I changed it back it showed my device as being compatible.
Thanks for your time and great game! very fun, and the wife loves it on her Atrix too!

New levels are out. I'm thinking what next - new episode (educational probably - for kids), even move levels?

Thanks, really nice game!

Agree. And maybe the positions where it's possible to build a defence tower as well.

1. Good point about path visibility! I will think about that
2. Different placement for towers may screw everything up and make the game too easy/unbalanced.

good concept..well done dev

Good game! Looking forward for next update.
In my opinion it's just barely visible on my Galaxy Nexus, cuz of the higher resolution. Even tho i have zoomed in max. Any chance you could do the maps 16:9 instead of what ever it is now (4:3?)?

mrBira, thank you for the feedback!
The problem is that Samsung Galaxy S2 <screen-size> is treated as normal, although it should be treated as large according android specification.
large screens are at least 640dp x 480dp
normal screens are at least 470dp x 320dp
This is because those specifications actually start to work from version 3 of Android, and Samsung Galaxy S2 is version 2.3. So it just downoads the wrong apk from the market. Currently I am working on this issue. I think I will solve it soon, I will post here about it.

played it on an HTC EVO 3D - thoughts on this
1) rotate the screen, I could have seen the entire thing if it were portrait
2) disable vibrate on press by default
3) needs some sort of music
4) you have these upgrades for new critters, describe them more - I upgraded to squirrel with arrow and belt kind of ripped off.
5) randomly locks up, switches to black screen. I can get out of it just by pressing home, so it's not terrible. Have to force close some times, other times it will just exit.
6) needs more levels open by default
7) Just feels like the critters are a bit underpowered and the levels are a bit short.
Fun game though, looking forward to updates.

nice game. But it would be good to do a more clear help

I agree with the path visibility. You can do display it after a player clicks on an enemy.. em.. fruit Overall, I kind of like your game, because it has something original comparing to other tower defense games.
Also, application stays active after I exit it using back button and you have to kill it with task manager.

Thank you! Regarding path visibility - you can remember it from the start. At least for the first wave
And the first wave will show you the path for the second etc. etc. It's not hard to remember the path at all, this is my opinion.

Application does not stay active. It goes to background. Because of that it does not consume processor power or other resources. The sound is also paused. This approach is good for all android applications and meets the guidelines. The operating system will kill the process if it needs more memory, you shouldn't worry about it. Just move it to background and forget about it when you done. This is absolutely OK, believe me.
And about a game:
New version is available on Android Market! New levels! Have a try!

look sweet, i give it a try

Don't know why, but the tower defense genre never gets old to me.
Very enjoyable, great work!

Cool! Good concept.

[GAME][2.2+] Jack N' Jill - A retro one button platformer

Jack N' Jill is a retro one button platformer. Help Jack find his way to Jill in 60 levels spanning over 3 different landscapes.
You control Jack only by tapping the screen and performing moves like jumps and wall jumps. The game has retro music and monochrome pixel art graphics which were a characteristic of the class gameboy era games. So if you enjoy those kind of games, you will like Jack N' Jill too.

Here's a video of the game:

Just downloaded this and its great have you thought about adding a tiny bit colour to it on certain things like the coins etc and I thought it would be an easy game but I was surprised how tricky it got a few levels in lol great work this should do good I think also rated it on gplay too
Sent from my Nexus 4

Thanks! I am glad you liked the game!
I did get that suggestion from 2 - 3 other people too, but I decided not to because I thought it might end up making the game look a bit odd.

Started playing and next thing I know, BAM, I'm at world 2. Loving this little game, it's well done and the retro style is well emulated.
There's a few annoying little quirks though, such as when there's let's say a block then right after a forward pointing spike in the same row (ground level), if you barely walk over the spike you die, even though more than half of the character is still touching the solid safe block (and thus technically you aren't touching the spike, since you can't fall because you are on the block).
The coins and points you rack up seem somewhat useless too. There's no incentive to collect the bigger coins over the smaller ones if only for the good feeling of getting more points that give nothing down the road.
Overall I hope there will be even more levels, I could play these type of games forever.

Thanks for playing the game and the feedback!
Your criticisms are completely valid. The issue with the spikes you described is because I am using a simple rectangle to rectangle collision detection. Hopefully I can figure out a better approximation for it. The coins don't really serve much of a purpose as you pointed out. Maybe if I invest some time into implementing a leaderboard and/or an achievements systems, there could be a better reason to collect them.
EDIT: World 2 and 3 are more challenging, so I don't think you might breeze through them as easily as world 1

Is this pushed automatically or manual update ? what's next with your future updates, maybe new powerups baddies etc ?

This version supports auto updates, i.e it doesn't need to be manually updated unless you've chosen that option.
Yeah, I will be adding new content to the game, but I cannot say when. I'll need some time for coming up with new ideas and implementing them.

Updated game now holds over 300 items to acquire!

Fun game so far, the only complaint I have is that I can tap my screen faster then the game seems to be able to recognize that its doing it...I know its not a limitation of the phone since I've played similar games. Is there a limit on how fast you can tap or is that something that needs to be adjusted?
Thanks, and keep up the great work!
Update: Never mind...I didn't notice I had to click the actual picture and not anywhere in the window at first.

As you found out there are no limitations. The only limitation you can occur is the lag between taps since the game is doing heavy math in the background but I think that won't be a problem for nowadays mobile phones. Thank you for commenting, enjoy your game!

Cool, very addictive game!! However, I wondered why I get no XP first, because I was collecting the first 1000 (!) ore without tool. It would be great to give a hint that you have to equip a tool to get XP, or to give at least 1 XP / ore if you have no tool. Also, my ore/second display always stayed at 0, even though I clearly had much more

Also, is there any way to get an audio on/off option?
