Thanks!

As I wrote in the Play Store review, it's a nice game, addictive and tough to play.
The only glitch is the piece drag movement which is not as smooth as it should be: the pieces don't follow the fingertips easily.
Keep up the great work!

A wonderful game. I played 35 levels. Extremely addictive. On my GT-S5660 running with no problems. The author thanks.

Bought it and played first four levels. Like it!

Liked the game. But it seems bit slow in my Galaxy S2, specially in the home screen.
Btw a few tutorial levels will make the app more exciting.

nice, thanks

This game looks nice Not the kind of easy game, like it. Kind of a brain trainer.

Your game made the 'front page'

Exactly what I was about to say. I'm sure not every fram needs to be drawn when you move the finger - just make sure you draw where the finger was last. Like it is now it is a great puzzle game that is too hard to play for for me keep interest. A shame ):

Thanks guys, I am still improving the game engine ... just I am not sure about smoothnes of move, I play it on Galaxy S2, and I think pieces are following the finger quite exactly ... could you explain in more details please ?

Hello, thank you for feedback, I would like to improve game engine, just I am not sure about drawing you mentioned ... I redraw whole screen, as it is drawn in OpenGL, but there should be no blinking or some other problems with that ? Also pieces should move to place where you touch the screen, but you need to hold the finger down, till the piece scrolls there ... could you give me example of some wrong movement ? I would check it then and fix it ...

Same here. Went smoothly until level 69. Now I have been stuck for 4 days. All possibilities tried so far did not quite work. Any tips?

Thank you for sharing this with us! It works flawlessly on my i777 running AOKP 4.0.4.

[GAME / MUSIC / DRUMMING] FLOW - A Space Drum Saga

Hey everybody,
I just wanted to tell you about my new awesome drumming game, FLOW - A Space Drum Saga. Unlike comparable games, where you just have to hit colored buttons when they reach the bottom of your screen, you really have to feel the rhythm to play the drums and master the game.
If you are talented or musical experienced you can take right off. If not the game might be a little hard in the beginning. Practise for a few games and play with headphones, the reward is twelve unique levels full of style, pathos and fun, and possibly the most incredible gaming experience for a long time. And you will learn to drum. Seriously.
Just give it a try, and tell me what you think. You can download it for free in the Play Store.
I would love to provide some screenshots but my account is too new :/

Thanks for your feedback, hope you enjoy my little masterpiece ^^
peace out

Hey, thanks for your replies, everybody, I'm glad you like the game!

All you guys seem to think that . Must be the minimalistic graphics, altough those of Patapon are way better. This and drumming is the only thing they might have in common.
However, I think FLOW is Patapon on steroids and has a much more intense and very different gameplay.
Perhaps make it more beat/battle game like patapon?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I am planning to add a few more levels, maybe I can implement something like that. But it won't be like Patapon, FLOW is supposed to be unique.
This is a great game. should have more downloads!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thanks! Yeah, I don't get the Google Play Store. FLOW is ranked pretty badly although it has only good ratings. I guess too many people uninstall the game, because they can't win the first level, or maybe because I don't sell the app. I tried my best to make FLOW popular, but all the game mags and press guys I contacted ignored me or asked for money to write a review. Screw them, xda-dev is much better, and that's why you will get exclusive insights instead of them.
As soon as my other project is done I will start to work on the next FLOW update. If you have any ideas, please let me know. Those are a few things I want to add, but not everything will be part of the next update.
Noob difficulty:
Too many people fail. So the noob difficulty has to get easier. Maybe I will add visual beat indicators like in guitar hero to help beginners get started. This is something I really didn't want to implement, but noobs might need it. At the moment only the first four levels can be played on noob difficulty, the update changes it to the whole game, but the Special Drums will remain hard to be played.
Multiplayer:
Challenging each other online would be damn cool, right? I've got some ideas...
New Levels:
The story of FLOW will be continued. But I won't spoil anything yet.
Level editor:
It would be pretty awesome if everybody could create custom levels for FLOW and share them on the web. This is a LOT of work, and probably won't be part of the next update. But it will come. :fingers-crossed:
I will keep you up-to-date about the progress.

although google play says that can be installed, the app isn't working on samsung galaxy ace.
i try the google play version and the apk from other source.
says "not instaled" when you try to install.
it's for arm v7?

Darren is right. It's supposed to work on your phone. Requirements are SDK 8 (Android 2.2) and above. I have played it on a Galaxy Ace myself some time ago, so this is really weird. Does this happen with other apps too? Do you have enough space on your device? Maybe try a reboot... Sorry, but this is all I can help you with at the moment.
=========================
I have made a public benchmark of FLOW I want to share with you guys:
pastehtml.com/view/cf2osimmc.html (sorry, still no links yet :/)
And the Winner is the good old Galaxy S II, thanks to the smaller screen resolution it beats the bigger S III at FLOW...
If your game is running slow, you should turn off some of the graphics settings, like antialiasing. This can help A LOT.

Played it, love it, it's a really nice fun game. Now excuse me, I'm space-drumming.

I am really enjoying the game on both a galaxy s3 and my nexus 7. I find that it can be a little jittery at times on both devices and I'm hoping that the next update smooths out the overall gameplay.

Actually it should run quite smooth on a galaxy s3. Maybe there are some background processes of other apps that start now and then and lower the performance of the game at times. You can try to use a task killer to shut down all your apps and then launch FLOW.
If this doesn't help or is too uncomfortable, you can turn off some of the graphics settings. Turning off Anti Aliasing improves the performance by 10 - 20%. If you turn off all the graphic settings the game will run up to three times faster, depending on device and level.

Fun game, very original!

I really love this game :good:

Thanks! You warm the heart of a small developer ^^

Very cool game! I was already a big fan of Bejeweled, but your game actually puts a bit more strategy into it which makes it more difficult and fun!
Great job!

Awesome work man, you are even on the headlines nice :laugh:.Will try this game soon, keep it going.

This game looks awesome, concept is pretty simple but you took care of all details and you polished very carefully all the animations and artwork.
Did you do all that game all alone including sounds and graphics?
Great job though, i love when a developer goes indie :victory:

[GAME][2.3+] Ateroyd - Crashed in Space - new update 1.6

I am developing and regularly updating Ateroyd in my free time since Oct 2014. It combines simple one-tap controls together with shooting, upgrading, increasing difficulty and secrets. The graphics have been hand-drawn by Dan-Nha Huynh. Furthermore, the musician Julian Colbus composed the track "Space Rave" for the last level of Ateroyd, which can be also listened to on soundcloud (link below). Furthermore, music from Kevin MacLeod and Multifaros is used (CC 3.0, see ingame credits).

Impressive. Did not expect much from a first App, but here everything fits together and it's really fun!

Thanks! If you find anything what could be improved, please let me know!

Uhm... good question. It's already pretty round. Maybe you can add leaderboards so I can challenge my friends?

The graphics look impressive for someone who's only startig! I'll make to sure to dl it when I get home.

Thanks alot for testing my game. Adding leaderboards is added to my TODO-list
I'll forward the compliment for the graphics to my girlfriend, she was doing the
hand-drawn graphics. Glad that you like it

Well, I think I don't count? There are currently 2 ways of implementing a leadearboard, a proven working one via setting up a webserver and the way I prefer via Google Play games. Unfortunately, this is the hard way since Clickteam Fusion does not support it natively (this is a pitty!!). Let's see how hard it is to write an CF extension which does the job properly...

Cute animations and has simple fun mechanics that gets addictive on you.
Great work
Typed on my Xperia Z3 while underwater.

nice graphics

Thank you so much That motivates me alot to continue improving the game with further updates!

Great!.. Graphics on the device looks much better then on screenshots
Also i think the idea about leaderboards is most important i like compete with my friends

[FREE][GAME][2.2+] Steam Hero: Rope of Hope

After a really long break from programming, I'm back with a new game. Steampunk hero is back, this time with a rope! From screenshots it probably looks like some stickhero-wannabe, but let me assure you, it's really not.
Hook, swing, repeat.
Equipped with nothing more than a single rope, swing from one platform to another. Hold your finger to move the grapple point, release to swing. Stick with the crows - they are said to spawn bonuses. But be careful! If the rope is too short or too long, you will fall.
Simple yet addictive, just try it!
Compete with your friends and people from all over the world through online leaderboards and achievements.
Collect coins to unlock additional backgrounds and characters.
Play in headphones for best experience.
