Android Market Link

For the people who like QR codes, like me
I shall post my comments later on today.
[edit] Sorry I checked the QR code before I'd post it. But here is a link to the free version Magic Point Lite [/edit]

I love this style of game! I'm going to try this out for you ASAP.
Personally I prefer desktop market links. I can click on install on my PC and have it on my phone before I even pick it up!
Edit: I just beat all 10 levels. Needs moar challenge (or a timer to see who can finish them fastest!)
As far as presentation goes I'm giving you a 9/10. Fantastic job on the minimalist design. Gameplay could be made more interesting if you only flashed the images on screen for a second each. That would be a memory challenge as well. Still I'd give you a 8/10 in that category. Content is a little limited, I don't know if it's expended in the full version. Thanks for sharing!

Comments
I've reviewed the free version.
I agree with k4p741nkrunch.
The levels are a bit too easy. They don't become much harder during the first 10 levels.
A timer or something to compete with others would be a addition to the game.
Please enable the wakelock, so the phone doens't falls back to the lockscreen when you're not paying attention to the game.
I like the design, maybe it would be nice if the user could select the preferred color.
The game play is also good, very simple an smooth.

Yes, it doesn't work that well on QVGA(Wildfire) devices. I can press one of them, and it'll come with a toast. But if it's correct, I can't press the Next Level button(at least, i guess it tries to tell me "Next Level")
That's what I can see on my wildfire, I can't press the text, and those dots need to be a little bit higher(I discovered that is for next/previous level).
Also I'd like auto-advance to the next level when it's correct.

fifarunnerr, thanks for feedback. I will fix it soon.

Very short game...finished within 2 minutes

you're very clever I will think about new hardest levels

We have released new version 1.1.0.
What's new:
- Wakelock has added
- Russian UI has added
- Some bugs on QVGA-devices were fixed

I got the paid version. 10 levels is too short (I imagine it'll expand). It took me about 2 minutes to finish (I got 8 of them right on the first try).
It would be awesome if in later levels it also included abstract reasoning questions beyond those dots. Spatial reasoning questions would also be great.
I Agree with Tricky-Design, custom color background would be awesome, specially if there is true black for those of us with OLED screens (SGS).
Looking forward for further updates
PS I also expected for the game to automatically forward me to the next level after I successfully complete a puzzle. It's a bit weird to have to tap the arrow.

Thanks for your suggestions We will add more levels in next version.

I could only get the Lite version, but I enjoyed it. I would also love to see harder levels as the game progresses, and I too was expecting it to advance me to the next level already, but it's a very good start to a cool game. My only suggestion would be to have a scoring system of some sort, maybe based on the amount of tries(and/or time) it takes to solve the puzzle.
I did not encounter any bugs or glitches with this game, if it helps. Played on a rooted Droid Eris running Gingerbread 2.3.4 (GSB3.5).

prsguitaruser, thanks I already think about new levels. Automatic next level will be in next version, thanks for this suggestion.

I have released new version 1.2.0:
- New 10 levels
- Auto-run of next level after a completion of previous level

[GAME][1.6+] graBLOX Puzzle Game

Released my first android game. I am a sole developer, game took approximately 6 months to complete. Without further ado, I bring you
graBLOX!

Easy to learn, hard to master. The concept is simple, remove all the blox from the board to move on. The challenge comes when not every block acts the same way.
Over 70 levels and 7 different and fun BLOX types (With more on the way)
Any feedback is welcome, good or bad. If you have any questions about the development process / time frames, let me know. I would be happy to answer.

Game was just released, so it may not show up on your phone search.

Game was updated with performance fixes.
Anyone give this a shot yet?

v.1.0.3
Added a feature request, Grid Option! to toggle through 3 different Grids, Full, Border, and Off
Fixed a bug causing the game to force close in rare cases on exit.

Brilliant game, keep on it mate.
Sent from my Arc via transwarp beacon.

Well , I just saw this thread, just installed it, and just tried the game.
And I must say, it's amazing! Simple yet entertaining, just the way I like it.
My guess is it will be very popular soon!
Tested on Galaxy S2, ICS ROM, works flawlessly, didn't encounter any errors, or FCs, although I didn't get past the 4th level ( feeling sleepy )
My experience and opinions, criticism and whatnot
+ The game starts up very fast!
+ The transitions are really nice in the world/level picker.
+ Music is really nice and not too boring, though I would prefer something jazzy
and slower ingame ( a lot of clouds )
maybe something like : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nf8FCLT8S6A
+ Help is drawn pretty nice, although it should point out that you need at least 3
blocks together for them to dissapear
+ text Font is awesome and fits well, so does the rest of the graphics
+ I love the concept of the game, nothing simillar out there
+ Block animations are awesome too
- I dont like preview thumbnails on level picker, they all look the same, maybe
some nice icons or something ?
- I didn't check the other worlds yet nor levels past the 4th but it seems they all
have the same 3 clouds + sun background. It got boring after 2 minutes
Maybe night/day cycle or something, shouldnt be too hard Would even look
nicer with a moon there and a dark background
Maybe the preview thumbnails will look better when the levels have different
backgrounds
Gonna play with it tommorow some more and edit this post if I find something that I like/don't like
Great job mate! Cheers!
Edit : Added smilies to the post, it wouldn't add the first time for some reason

Amazing feedback, thanks!
As to your light criticisms, I am in the process of trying to incorporate a more friendly level structuring. As in, you won't have to just play 1 level until you beat it, you will have more levels open to you. And part of this process might be changing the menu system around.
As far as the graphics go, you may be SHOCKED to learn, but I did all the graphics myself, hehe
It probably doesn't need to be said, but I am no good at graphics, my idea would be to make each world look different, so you are not looking at the same thing all the time. But drawing things that don't hurt people's eyes is very tough.
I had originally considered making the game go to night time, you may not have noticed, but the sun actually moves. And when it gets to the other side, it just switches back. At that point I wanted to make it moonlight, but I couldn't draw anything that didn't make my eyes bleed. But you have convinced me to keep trying.
I will keep at it though, thanks for the info.

This game is awesome, please keep it updated

Thanks for the support,
I am working on a big update. Probably due out next week, or the week after. So get your feature requests / suggestions in!

Very clever game, I like how the difficulty varies from level to level.
Sometimes I think a level is too hard, and then I realize it only took 2 moves.
I will also mimic the above poster and say you need a help screen that shows you only need 3+. took me a few seconds to realize that on my own.

Well I thought that too, until I took a closer look and it actually says 3+ on top of the help screen! Though not too many users will figure out what 3+ actually means

Maybe have another info screen on the second level showing the same thing but with just 3? Although it wasn't too hard for me to figure out on my own.
I am stuck on level 25, has to be impossible! I love the little tie-die looking dudes, neat mechanic.

Thanks for the kind words.
I am planning on updating how the level structure works, Anyone have any suggestions? I would like to implement a method in which you don't have to progress one level at a time. So if you get stuck, you have other levels open to keep on playing.

v.1.0.4
Updated the level order. I found too many people failing earlier, changed the levels to have a better difficulty curve.
Enjoy!

Good stuff! It's tougher than I would have thought to find a good, free puzzler that doesn't beat you over the head with ads. Thanks!

[Game][3.2+][Free] New Android defender game: Nightmare Defender!

Hi guys! My name is Daniel, I am part of an small (two man) indie game dev team called DJantel Ware.
We released our first game two weeks ago and wanted to present it to you. Any kind of feedback is highly appreciated!
So to the game:
Nightmare Defender is (kind of) a tower defense game, but it brings some fresh ideas into the genre! The main idea here is that you are defending your castle against waves of monsters. Your main weapon to do so is your bow. There are quite a few attributes you can put your gold and experience points into to get stronger or be able to cast mighty magic spells. The biggest difference to other defender games is that you have guards. Guards are creatures that help you against your endless battle. Share your experience points with them and they will get stronger and evolve. All guards have unique skills, some of them act on their own (attacking and casting spells), others will wait for your commands.
You can get it for free in the play store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.djantelware.nightmaredefender
Here is a trailer:

For the ones who care: We used AndEngine as our game engine. All graphics are made by me (using Inkscape), almost all sounds as well (two or three public domain ones are also there). Music was made by Kevin MacLeod.
We also have a facebook page:

A real gameplay video:
I would really appreciate it if you gave it a try! Thank you .

*bump*
Omg, buried on second page already.

Hm, so really nobody wants to try it? It would be also very great and helpful feedback if you told me why you do not feel like trying it? Something about the screenshots? Description? Bad video?

I played few rounds of this. Core gameplay was quite nice and fluid. Aiming atleast with the bow was semi accurate but could definetly be better.
While I liked the UI ingame a lot, I think it was clean and fluid, but in the menu before the game the UI was.. confusing to say the least. I got lost in the menu for a minute untill I figured what to do.
TLDR; A lot better gameplay than some games on playstore that have millions of downloads, but the menu was too "2.3 or Gingerbreadish" for me.

Hi inSaN1Ty_X,
thanks alot for trying our game and your feedback!
 @aiming
This heavily depends on the speed of the arrows. You will be able to hit monsters a lot better when you increase the speed attribute. We build it like that so you have this feeling of your bow getting better all the time .
@menu
Oh, ok. What menu do you mean exactly? The one at the very beginning or the one with the attributes and all this stuff?
Again, thanks a lot for your feedback !

Yes, I guessed the aiming would be something like that, and its ok, I'll just have to play a bit more.
On the menu side I mean the main menu in general is not that systematic, button sizes/locations and color were the ones that hit me most.
But that is just my oppinion ☺ looking forwards for updates!

Ah ok, I see ^^. The main menu was really build (rebuild) as a last step - thus, you are right, it is not exactly systematic with the rest. But the new one looked a lot better than the old one, so we decided to use it for now . We will see if we can improve it.
Thanks again for this valuable input!

*bump*

Add shadows, and your game will look much better:good:

Hi A-Pod, it is a nice idea! We will check out if it is possible. Our concern right now is performance on not high end devices - unfortunately the used engine does not handle "too many sprites at once" too well. But we will check out the possibilities.
What we right now are also thinking about are weather effects like rain or fog.
Thank you very much for your feedback!

*bump*

Of many games of this type it's look good!

Thank you!

I saw the trailer on google play, it looked interesting to say the least.
I'll try and download it today

Hi taptouchart,
we would be glad if you gave it a try . And please rate it if you liked it .
Today a new update is also available. Along with bugfixes and stuff people can not see, we included yet again a new monster (this makes two new monsters after release ).

Cool defense game, very motivating! How did you came about with the idea of this weird clown ?

Hi Entangled Multiverse,
we are glad you like it! The idea just popped into our minds. He was supposed to be a more important figure, giving you new bows when you defeat him. Until now it is just a gold bonus. We will see if he receives the glory he was supposed to in future updates .

I think this game is going to get big because it feels like a really slick app, the animations are very smooth along with the gameplay and the UI is very clean. The game is pretty fun and has an addicting feel to it I recommend this game to anyone.

Nice, love the new concept!

Wow, this game is really nice! Smooth animations work really good with flat minimalistic design. And it is very additive as well. I spent about 20 minutes, my highscore is 68 The only thing I want to see in future updates is some kind of indication about my position in the leaderboard.

Well, I don't know, your game is actually addicting, I already spent more time in it than I want to admit. My score is now 97, and there is a long way from 97 to 213 (it is top highscore at the moment). I notices one thing while I was playing. When you are using one of top tier skins, icons on the dots made game harder. But I gues it is ok as people who use this skins already have some skill. By the way, for the Russian translation you guys deserve additional спасибо. Looking forward for updates, thanks for great game and good luck!

Awesome game
I like all the little details in this game, like the circle getting bigger over time and the changing background color after you collected 50 balls. Also, it's great that you get "coins" to unlock other color combinations.
Suggestions: I think the game needs a pause button during gameplay - just think you suddenly have to stop in a train, you don't want to loose all your progress. Maybe you could also add some optional background music.
One bug that occurred occasionally: when I pressed the replay-button instantly after finishing a game, the coin display showed a value which was higher than what I really collected (e.g. showing 10 coins when I only collected 9 by having 7 before and getting 20 points). When I do a suicide then, the display in the menu shows the correct value ("9"), so it's not a bug which gives you a benefit but only a display bug.

[GAME][4.1+] Ball Grind 1.0

Hello. I just published my first game on the Play Store. It's called Ball Grind. If you enjoy minimalistic arcade games like Color Switch, Super Hexagon or the ones by Ketchapp, this game is for you. But don't get me wrong, I made something original, there's no game that looks like mine on the play store. Feel free to to give my game a try, let me know what you think below .
Coming for Windows Phone and iOS soon.
Well, I'm not allowed to post links yet. You can find the game on the play store by searching "ball grind" (include quotation marks).
This is the icon:

}
Description:
Your ball keeps spinning around each platform. Tap the screen at the right moment for your ball to jump from a platform to another. Be careful, as the game keeps getting faster and there are obstacles in your way. Your ball can only stay on a platform for a while, so think quickly.
The objective is simple, go as far as you can, but going far isn't that simple! Try to collect diamonds that appear in your way.
- Fast paced one-touch gameplay;
- 10 different balls to unlock;
- 4 difficulty levels : Normal, Hard, Harder, Hardest (sorry, no "easy"). Can you beat all of them?
Focus and precision are key here. Prepare to test your relfexes!
Screenshots:

First impressions: The blue text on an orange background is hard to read IMO, the icon peaks my interest.
After downloading: I denied you access to my photos, not sure why you need that. Looks weird that my in-game currency is off the screen on this menu. I don't really like the text you chose, and why isn't the "Exit" centered on it's button?
After Hitting play: Tutorial is straight forward although hard to read with given text and background colors. seems weird that you want me to hit "start" after successfully completing my tutorial, it should say congratulations and take me into game right away IMO.
After Tutorial: So I lost first level, curious why the level orientation changes after I hit replay? I assumed it should be the same exact level that I get to try again on. I like the SFX, game could use ambient music as well. I feel like the game really has no theme. Prices in store seem fair, I feel like I could easily save up for a skin if I was going to play your game regularly.
Final thoughts: I feel like this is a great start and you're really on to something, I could actually see the game being fun and addicting but right now you're missing the final polish. I feel like you should spend more time on the overall presentation of the game and take care in the way every little thing looks and try to imagine yourself in the shoes of a new player. Do some playtesting with friends and family to see what they think could be improved and ask for honest feedback. I come on these forums to offer honest feedback because I feel like that's what my fellow developers need! Please feel free to send me future updates and games for my opinion, always happy to help.
ALSO, pretty sure mods will remove your post because there is no link.. not 100%

After Tutorial: So I lost first level, curious why the level orientation changes after I hit replay? I assumed it should be the same exact level that I get to try again on. I like the SFX, game could use ambient music as well. I feel like the game really has no theme. Prices in store seem fair, I feel like I could easily save up for a skin if I was going to play your game regularly.
Final thoughts: I feel like this is a great start and you're really on to something, I could actually see the game being fun and addicting but right now you're missing the final polish. I feel like you should spend more time on the overall presentation of the game and take care in the way every little thing looks and try to imagine yourself in the shoes of a new player. Do some playtesting with friends and family to see what they think could be improved and ask for honest feedback. I come on these forums to offer honest feedback because I feel like that's what my fellow developers need! Please feel free to send me future updates and games for my opinion, always happy to help.
ALSO, pretty sure mods will remove your post because there is no link.. not 100%

Thanks for your review. But it seems there's one thing I didn't make clear: Those levels you see after touching play are actually just difficulty levels, what changes from one to the next is the speed and the colors. This is about seeing how high you can score in each difficulty level. A difficulty level is considered "beaten" once you reach a score of 30 in each (just 20 for the hardest, because I think 30 is way too hard.)
The placement of obstacles is procedurally generated each time you play, that's why it always looks different when you retry.
This is not just about beating the levels, it's also about seeing how far you can go before you crash or miss.
Also, I didn't know my game required access to photos? I don't get that permisson request when I install the game.
Perhaps I should change the description of the game a bit. And yes, I will improve the UI .
