Hope you enjoy the game, cheers!
UPDATE 1.2 - Brings Pro Mode and other tweaks and improvements! Should be live on Google Play in minutes : )

I downloaded and really enjoy this. Easy enough for my kids and challenging for me.
I would suggest selectable difficulty levels though. It takes far too long too challenge me although once its gets going it's pretty tough. I would like to be able to be immediately challenged.
Nice guys, I really like this.

This game is awesome!

I'm glad you like it : )
@fitz420: We're planning to introduce hardcore mode, where you start from a higher difficulty level with increased multiplier (we really want to keep it to just one leaderboard).

Nice game for my fingers keep up the good work!

It seems really nice I'm gonna try it later today

I really like your game, and that's saying something -- I don't like games too much. I mean, I have a Mahjongg game and a Sudoku game, but something like Angry Birds or Cut the Rope -- not for me. I dig your game, though. It's simple, but tricky. I think partly it appeals to me because of my nearly 5-year history of playing Rockband (although, mostly singing). Still, it boils down to pattern matching. Might not be what you're going for, but if you could cook up an algorithm that takes a playing song and uses that to determine what colored balls and powerups to send out, that would be really neat. As opposed to, I guess, random? Also, it seems hard to keep control of the wheel at times, since the balls come from all sides. I guess that's the point, there's no safe place to keep your fingers.
Technical stuff? Works great in CM9/ICS (4.0.4) on the Electrify (Photon 4G).

Thanks a lot! The audiosurf-like idea - yeah, it could be fun - we'll look into that in the future : ) As for there being no safe place for your fingers - the balls only come from the top and bottom of the screen - so the sides should be safe.

Yeah, like Audiosurf. Great example of a rhythm game that dynamically generates its tracks. I wouldn't mind playing that on Android. And thanks for the spoiler... er, I mean tip, haha.
I posted your game's trailer video on Facebook. I hope my Android friends check it out and my iPhone friends get jealous.

Cheers ^^

8 download here, lets try! good luck with this men

Simple and nice game New original idea ...

First update is coming - it will bring the Pro mode some people requested, as well as a couple other tweaks : )

Wow VERY nice game!

As someone already said, i am not into games that much and this one blew me away! I love the simplicity, the smoothness, and that it doesn't freeze because I don't have hardware acceleration! I would love to beta test for y'all! If you need someone, hit me up!

I would've easily paid $5 for this! Very fun addictive game! 5/5!

Thanks guys! @NJD_HD2 - Well, maybe we'll make a donation version some day, so keep your 1$ ready for that : P
Update coming today!
[EDIT] Update 1.2 is up on GP!

[GAME][2.2+] Godville - zero player text game

We’re indie developers and we are proud to present to the XDA-community Godville - our text-based parody game for those who don’t have time to play.
Main features:
- auto-rpg where your hero levels up by himself!
- play it with your own pace - once a day or once a month
- hilarious game world with thousand of witty and funny texts to unleash your imagination
- extend the game by offering new ideas and content
- daily newspaper, ideabox, game wiki, pantheons pvp, guilds, friends and lots of other stuff
The game is free to play, with in-app purchases to support game development.
You can install the app from this post or just search Google Play for “Godville”
Known bugs:
- Remote notifications are known to have problems on some devices.
The look and feel of this Android app was heavily influenced by our iOS app and it might not look very natural on Android. Google’s interface guidelines were published later, but they didn’t help either, as they mostly focus on Android 4 (which is still a minor part of our install base) and some of them seem user-unfriendly (e.g. action items at the top on devices with big screens). We’ll really appreciate if you could take look at the app and point out the most screaming UI problems that will make the app better on Android.

Suddenly, we realize that a first post from a new user might not look very credible
So here is some additional info:
1. Godville is available in the Play Store for some time (has 6000+ ratings with average score 4.7)
2. There were reviews from Desctructoid.com and TouchArcade.com (can’t post links to those due to a new user limits) of the game, but we’d really like to hear your opinion on the Android app.

Just downloaded

Cool Android KS Projects

Hi,
So I am not sure if I will update this on a regular basis like I do my emulator thread BUT lately I have become addicted to Kickstarter and found SEVERAL projects that are Android related (some only mentioned by the dev themselves)
Please note not all of these are guaranteed to be for Android but for those that are not the devs are interested in Android. I think if they get a bunch of Android backers then we can persuade them even more
Any ways KS does not have an android section so it is easy to miss these.
So please fund these games !
Non Game projects:
Icontrolpad2 :
iControlPad 2 - The open source controller by Product 3 LLC — Kickstarter
This project is ending very soon and you wont be able to buy this controller for several months without being a backer. This is a slideout keyboard/Six Axis controller that can fit in your pocket while connected to your phone anywhere you go. Additionally it can map physical keys to any touchscreen control on Android WITHOUT needing a dev to support it.
Impulse Game Controller and Key Finder:
iMpulse Game Controller & Key Finder: Pocket Accessory by Black Powder Media — Kickstarter
A controller that works with Android and is a key-chain!
IExpander
iExpander - an expansion device for your iPhone by Charlie Corry — Kickstarter
This is really an amazing case.
1.It has a built in SD card lot which can be used to add addtional SD storage to your phone. So imagine throwing in another 64 SDXC card into your phone in addition to your current one and the 32 GB on board storage ( I own a SGS3).
2. The case has a backup battery built into it so it can charge your phone but it is built in such a way that you can still sync and charge the phone and case without detaching them (or blowing them up)
So this is actually for Iphones at the moment but I still pledged and here is why. I emailed the creator of the project and he said if this is successful they will next try and bring the Iexpander to Android phones as well.
GAMES
3089
3089 Action RPG by Phr00t — Kickstarter
The KS page does not mention Android support but when I spoke with the dev he did say he plans on making it happen in the future.
3rd World - A CyberPunk Tale
3rd World - A CyberPunk Tale by Vision-Strike-Ware, LLC — Kickstarter
This game is planning to back Android from the start. It is from a long lost dreamcast game. They need $50K in the next 45 days so lets help em out!
Arakion
Kickstarter (complete)
Arakion by Chris Taylor — Kickstarter
Inidegogo (still going for addtional content)
Arakion | Indiegogo
Arakion is a beautiful looking first person RPG. the dev Chris Tyler will be supporting Android a month after the initial launch. He is still accepting pledges on Indiegogo. He is adding addtional content if we hit the 60K goal. A lot of thought went into this game so please back it
Armada Engine
Armada Engine by MarkandRoger — Kickstarter
So this is a cool Space strategy game. The dev mentions in that they plan to make this for Android and Ouya as well. So please back this !
Doublefine Adventure game
This one is already complete as well but you can still become a slacker backer on their website:
Double Fine
Dysis
Dysis by One Dimension Games — Kickstarter
This is a RTS/FPS hybrid game. I asked the dev about Android support and he said after the initial release if things worked out he would attempt it
Katun
This looks like a really cool survival horror type game using the Unreal engine. The dev plans to support Android. They need $350K but you can tell from the video they have done some upfront work already!
Kitaru
About Kitaru «
Another cyber punk themed game that looks amazing. The KS is over but Android support is planned so keep an eye out
Legend of Aethereus
The KS has ended for this game but it will be coming to Android. Here is their website
ThreeGates.se - Home
Orbitor
ORBITOR by Evil Aliens — Kickstarter
This looks like a very well polished space shooter game with a good story. The devs need funding so please help them. They are planning to release this on Android immediately after the initial PC release according to their FAQ
Rhythm Destruction
Rhythm Destruction
The KS has ended. Their stretch goal was for mobile support. The dev is still planning to port the game to Android. This is a Rhythm based Shump and looks like a lot of fun.
Rival Threads
Kontrabida // Support
Great looking Android game here. Their KS is over but you can still donate on their website. $5 and you get the app!
Ring Runner Flight of the Sages
This game has 34 days to go and is working on stretch goals. Android support is planned. Yet another space shooter with a good story.
Ring Runner - Flight of the Sages by Ring Runner — Kickstarter
Please help us meet the stretch goals
Recyx
Recyx... Will they find the energy needed? by Productions Soleil Rouge Inc — Kickstarter
This game needs our help! The creators want to bring Recyx to Android/IOS as well (I asked in an email)
This looks like an amazing RTS where you focus on building your robot out of materials you find in your environment.
Please support them!
Saga Kingdoms
Saga Kingdoms by Gnome Templar — Kickstarter
Again the Dev has stated in an update that Android will be supported. This looks like a very cool online RTS game. They are shooting for 100K so please back him!.
Shadowrun Online
You probably knew about this one. If you missed out on the KS like me though you can still back the project:
Shadowrun Universe
Shadowrun Returns
No options yet to back Shadowrun Returns if you missed out but they are talking about opening it up again
Shadowrun Universe
World of Midgard
Old-School MMO RPG World Of Midgard by Veraxon Entertainment — Kickstarter
Their first KS failed. All they want is 20K and they offer some very nice rewards. Please back them. They already have an Android app you can try out!

[GAME][4.2+] Duels RPG - Text Adventure

Hi XDA devs, users, forum readers,
My name is Adam and I have spent the last three years part-time developing my first game ever.
Duels RPG - Text Adventure is a text RPG which tributes/resembles the values of oldschool classical text RPGs, while adding modern elements to the game,
like counter-skill combat, crafting, talent-tree (perks) and turn based combat - in addition to the story.
Story/Brief:
You are an ambitious person who has been sent by a secret faction to the land of Highriver,
to investigate and eliminate a secret cult, lead by a mystery figure, who manipulates, controll and mislead the local townsmen to gain authority and power.
Game Philosophy - A.K.A - Why you should play this game if you like RPGs?
I made many prototypes in the past for this game but I clearly remember the moment when I was realised why this will be a good game.
In Duels RPG you have to find out the solution by yourself to each problem. When you have to think and strategize, in that way you actually
feel the gratification which you cannot feel with most of the mobile RPGs because most of them are P2W or have auttobattle, or too easy (one tap kill an enemy).
Duels RPG is made with a little rebel style comparing to other mobile games/RPGs. I wanted to make a game where you have to actually think about the moves you make, the decisions you make. I wanted to make a real game, where decision and strategy makes you win and not scamy monetization shenanigans. This game is indeed hard.
Here be some of the feedbacks I got from users:
- Great game, very immersive. Hope to see it continue to grow!
- It is a very fun and interesting game, I love the story, and the combat is of a style I appreciate, and I hope more games like this can be made in the future!
- The gamebook everyone is looking for.
- A genuine product of love from one's passion for their art. Warmly appreciated. Thank you, Ádám.
- A really perfect game. I barely had that much fun playing any mobile game ever. Please continue your work and keep this game up to date. I am very excited what functions will come in future to keep it interesting. Thanks for the development of it.
- This is a great game one of the most unique and great text adventure games I have seen.
- Incredible work! Bravo . I cant wait for more contents !!! i have finish the game... and i want more. Need a update soon 5☆ Content comming ? However, add some fighting on the map once the game ends. Indeed, we have finally good equipments and we can not enjoy it.
- A great game, it reminds me of the old jRPG genre. It can be a bit grindy but it isn't overwhelming and the best part is it's not P2W. The greatest aspect of the game is obviously its battle, instead of mauling your foe with a super enhanced weapon, you must strategize and sometimes always experience defeat on your first battle.
Known issues:
Please note, that this is an indie game. I develop this game alone. Thats why there are a still a tons of things to do to make the game better.
- There is no sound. (It will come sometime but currently I'm working on Chapter 2)
- There are some proofreading issues. (I was working with multiple proofreaders and some of them could left errors in the grammar. I'm already investigating this.)
Future:
If the game gets enough online attention and support from players I can continue this project and make this even better and bigger.
Right now I'm working on the continuation of the story, with Chapter 2.
If you like RPGs, this game definitely worth a try.
Since I'm a new user to XDA forum, I cannot provide a link for the game.
But you can search for "Duels RPG" in Google Play Store.
Also I would appreciate greatly if one of the fellow users of XDA would post a link about the game to this thread. Thanks in advance.
Kind Regards,
Adam

@Adam_DuelsRPG Is this one the correct download?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=hu.adamvarhegyi.duelsrpg.cult&hl=en

Yes it is, thank you very much!

Just finished the first chapter on the first playthrough. Cutting it short:
- Great game, one really does feel your passion and love. Indeed charming way of monetization without being obstructive, which reminds me a of another great RPG out there (Eternium).
- I love the critters minigame when I am short on money, just make sure grinding does not become necessary too often in Chapter 2, will ya?
- Minor text errors and a few crashes on the way, but nothing game breaking.
All in all definitely recommendable!
So... how much money do people have to throw at you to finish Chapter 2 in time? (>^_^)>

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Haha, I yet to see the economy of Chapter 2, but yes indeed, I don't want to make a grinding game.
Except the critter duels, 99% of the enemies are unique and you only see them once.
I will keep it that way.
A proofreader is already working on the texts, that will be fixed, just needs a lot of time.
And its not about money, money won't make you time
I want to deliver Chapter 2 as a worthy follow up from Chapter 1
I need time. A lot.
