THANKS

Screenshots? Direct link/QR code? Better description of game, maybe text from market in post?
Come on, be a better marketing agent!

Nuh long detailed descriptions are for sissies. I dont think the qr link works though

Hmm. Why would I download/waste my time to find a link or finding it in the market if I have no idea what it is other than a puzzle game. Give me a reason.

@OP
I would suggest to all game devs to refrain from using the term "my first" when describing your game. It's just not as inviting. I'm not telling you to lie, just don't tell us ^_^ I'm pretty confident it will draw in more crowd.

Not too bad. Simple, but entertaining.

heres a direct link market://details?id=<com.hyperbyte.game3>
some screen shots:

Any suggestions on how I could improve it?

needs better tile graphics and fullscreen(no notification bar). Work on presentation now that you have your core gameplay concept.

"Stops unexpectedly" on my Samsung Vibrant (stock 2.2), and I have to Force Close.

yeah Im working on fixing that. was the force close from rotating the phone?

I am currently working on adding new themes, difficulty levels and bug fixes, so stay tuned!

Feels like a fancy minesweeper, needs better graphics.
I would like some sort of chat bot providing some colorful commentary like "are you sure? " "not bad" "you are not getting closer " and that sort of stuff (with SHUT UP! Command of course) give it more personality
Game itself... mechanics is okay but needs feint or other cloud scoreboard support. Right now everything is random so no comparison.
Another idea is play aids, like helpful circles or borders to narrow down suspect squares. However you get penalty factor if you use them. So you cannot get high score unless you turn them off.

Halloween Pumpkins are scary, trick or treat!
The Creepy Pumpkins are a fantastic Halloween Live Wallpaper choice for 2013!
The creepy kids Halloween Pumpkins are coming and can't be stopped. Unlucky for them your powerful finger tap can destroy them in a very satisfying explosion. But their evil magic is strong and the Creepy Pumpkins come back to life.
The pumpkins in the scene can be changed to uncut, cut and lit and rotten. The number of pumpkins can also be selected.
Happy Halloween 2013!
Please rate and comment, we appreciate your feedback. Thanks!
Tips:
✓ This is a live wallpaper not a game, we now have an option to run as a normal app if you just want to play with them.
✓ Tap pumpkins once to explode them
✓ Double tap to enter settings
✓ Double tap with two fingers to reposition pumpkins
This is a free ad supported live wallpaper. Ads can be removed with a small in app payment if you desire.

Anyone manage to take a look at this and tell me what you think, happy to do the same for you if you can pass on the forum link
Cheers

Hey, I just downloaded this and it works well on my Samsung Galaxy S3. The full screen popup ads are a bit annoying but I guess you gotta make money. Have a look at my app and let me know what you think http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46446137#post46446137

Are you monaziting you app. I guess some companies look at acquiring user base, then monatizing ie Instagram. It's difficult to weight the pros and cons.

[lwp] [2.2+] shape

Hi, just wanted to brag a little about a new wallpaper I made.
It uses a little of demoscene-like graphics techniques to generate images and animations that I personally enjoy a lot - but I'm yet unsure whether I'm the only one.
For those graphics-coding-inclined: it makes a heavy use of pixel shaders, basically computing distance functions for combinations of simple shapes (http://www.iquilezles.org/www/articles/distfunctions/distfunctions.htm) and then texturing the surface with these shapes replicated. Although the word 'texturing' is used in a loose sense here, since there is no geometry of the tunnels and grids that you can see in the app - everything is happening in pixel shaders, issued on quads covering all or part of the screen and the 3D-like surfaces are obtained through coordinate transformations.

As you can see on the image, the customization options allow to obtain very different looks, so I decided to release a series of free wallpapers each showing one distinctive preset from the full app. The first one is Neon Tunnel:

Let me know what you think about it.
I'm happy to answer any technical questions. I'll probably do a technical write-up on my blog soon, whether anyone's interested or not.

Cool wallpaper! I am glad that Magic Fluids and Waterfloo now have a successor. Will there be a regular app gui in the future?

Thanks! There might be. I thought about making a separate app that would allow the user to control the shape-morphing process and design the images for yourself. But if the wallpaper doesn't take off, I might just slap the regular app mode on top of the wallpaper and call it a day.
There is some activity in your app's thread, in case you missed it.

I'm also a fan of your apps! The patterns in the wallpaper look beautiful. I want to program sth similar, and play around with it.

With a regular app gui you could maybe offer other ways to play around with the shapes .
A 3D volume renderer visualizing shapes would be cool. But that might be computationally too expensive for Android devices.
