It's looking really solid. Great job.
One request though, could you please add QVGA resolution support?
LAP and RESET buttons are cut off on my 320x240 screen.
Works & looks great on my Nexus One. Just a suggestion: is it possible to put it on the SD card?.

No complaints in here. Qvga supoport is working great. Thank you
Awesome app, gotta have a timer for the steaks on the grill, really love this one. Congrats!
Very nice App, in Look and functionality!
One suggestion: What about an extra button to switch fast to the timer
Great app. Very solid, incredibly beautiful and very usable. I love it.
I think it would be also very nice to have several lap time indicators simultaneously instead of one, but it's only a minor visual suggestion .
Awesome looking app, man! Definitely replacing my current stopwatch/timer app with this. Thank you!
Works and looks great! I'm using it on a DX with leaked Ginger Bread.
Suggestions:
1) haptic feedback option
2) notification selection option
3) while setting the time for the Timer, not having the Timer start as soon as we press Set
Good job on your first app.
Beautiful looking for sure. Some suggestions :
- When editing the timer, we have to put a number to validate it. It is ok but it would be nice if not entering anything (after setting a wrong value) would automatically set it to "0". For the moment, if you erase the wrong value, it restores it when moving to another value. Erasing should be considered as 0.
- An option to decide when to stop the alarm of the timer. Ringing only 3 times is not enough. We should be able to set an option such as "stop ringing on press".
- Custom ringtones or more of them.
- More themes (or simply the same with others colors).
Fantastic job however...
Nice application. I really like the way the 'laps' page shows the times. I coach Track and Field and that is a great feature.
Something to consider in the future: enabling hardware buttons (volume up/down, camera) to act as start/stop, lap, etc.
Keep up the good work!
Coolest stopwatch/timer I've seen yet, good job dev
Awesome looking app. Thanks a lot mate.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
So many Android apps look terrible compared to stuff you find on iOS, but this app proves it doesn't have to be that way. Awesome job, dev!
WOW
really great job, and thanx for sharing with us
some suggestion:
- can you add ringtone? maybe in combination with settings to chose one (ore have a default-ring)
- timer not starting on "set", preferably starting on button "start"
- mabe an other alternative to set time faster? scrolling wheels or anything like this
and again: gooood job dude
Hi all,
I just developed my first game, Color Confusion http://bit.ly/kSX8go, and hope folks here get a chance to check it out. Any feedback is welcome.
Being my first game, there are probably things that could be done better, but my tesing group (wife and kids =) seem to really enjoy playing it.
We have an Asus Transformer, so optimizing for tablets/honeycomb was important to us.
UPDATE:
Color Confusion Game Trailer: http://bit.ly/jU7HXE
Description
See if you have what it takes to solve each level, by mixing a wide array of colors into cans of paint. Don’t be fooled as gameplay starts off easy, with a small number of colors. As you progress, it becomes pure Color Confusion!
* USER REVIEWS *
- “Very fun! Makes you actually think!”
- “Good for passing time. Fun! Very nice.!”
- “This game is a ton of fun! It seems so simple but it very challenging.”
FEATURES:
** Optimized Honeycomb 3.0 support
** HD Tablet resolution graphics included
** Supports lower resolution devices as well
** Never the same game twice
** Great game for teaching kids how to mix colors
** High score tracking for each level
** Seemingly easy at first glance, but becomes additively difficult
** In-app help included
** Atmospheric background music
** Free version includes first four levels
** Free version includes ads
awesome, ill have to check it out. good work.
luciferii, thanks for the kind words.
I submitted this app to Amazon, and it has been approved. Anyone know how long it takes to "go-live" on Amazon? It has been a couple of days in approved status...but no way I can tell to make it go live. Does Amazon do automatically?
Hi Funny idea for a game.
I've noticed that I went too many times for the obvious choice, like for green I was mixing a darker green with a lighter color instead of mixing blue and yellow.
I've got two minor recommendation:
If you go to play, help or scores and press the back button, it exits the game. I should expect that it would go back to the main menu.
When pressing the remix button it directly remixes the colors. On a tablet touching this by accident isn't really the case, but when playing it on for instance the bus on your phone it can happen. A are you sure dialog can avoid this.
It's rather good Could you make the sample of the colour we have to match bigger? It is a tad small when playing on a phone.
Hi,
Tricky Design, thanks for the great feedback! For the help/score exiting the game, I was able to replicate that as well. I fixed that bug in an update (see below version history). That was a good catch! The re-mix is also a good idea, I will put that in my next update!
Isadora, Thanks for the great feedback as well! I will for sure make the swatch colors bigger on the next build.
Really appreciate you all checking it out, feel free to spread the word if you like it...being my first game...it is hard getting it "off the ground"
For reference, here are the updates I have done so far...most are based on user feedback...I am really trying to address user feedback
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.2
1. Based on user feedback, added option to mute background music (new icon on main menu)
2. Minor changes to Ad sizing for some devices
3. More performance improvements
Version 1.1
1. Based on user feedback, adjusted difficulty levels
2. Performance improvements
3. New "free" icon, to distinguish paid from free if both installed
4. Increased Color Palette size and buttons, to make play easier on phones
5. Fixed bug with game exiting when hitting menu button on scores and help.
Version 1.0
1. Initial Release
Color Confusion was featured on Blamza.com http://bit.ly/jfnGxB !
"Simple but addictive...excellent game...try it out" -Blamza.com
It seems that the paid (ad-free) version still has the ad code involved somewhere, because it still wants internet and unique identifier permissions. That's something of a turn-off.
Hi ResonanceZero,
Thanks for the feedback.
The paid version has the Ad stuff removed...however, this was built with Corona SDK, and that permission is added during their "build" process. I will do some research as to why that is the case, and see what can be done about it.
Thanks again for taking time to look at it and provide feedback.
Since it is my first game, I am still learning a lot...and having fun
I don't know if I am doing something wrong or, but whenever I download the game and run it, it says that the application has been corrupted
Sent from my disease ridden .... I mean CommRom Fascinate.
Color Confusion 1.3 just released! Now you can see the answers, if you fail a level!

barty22, thanks for the nice feedback on the trailer. It was my first attempt at something like this...and I thought it turned out pretty well. Glad you liked it!
Color Confusion gets great hands on video review from TalkAndroid.com!

Just updated the website with the "Gibibyte Team"

Hopefully you all have as much fun playing Color Confusion as we did making it!
Color Confusion 1.5 released, with updated graphics. Gameplay looks much better now. Enjoy!

Thanks for listening,
http://www.gibibytegames.com/
It's a great little game I really like that all the levels are different every time but I'm just annoyed that I haven't managed to master level 10 yet (there *always* seems to be 2 colours that I can't mix right!)
Isadora,
I am so glad to hear you think it is a great game
We did work hard to make the gameplay have lasting value...by making the levels different every time.
You are right...level 10 is very challenging...I have managed to solve it a few times...at least now you can see the answers if you fail. That was a feature folks were asking for.
One of the hardest things is "getting the word out" on these games. Really appreciate you taking time to play!

Awesome game where you have to dodge purple squares by swiping up and down!
The longer you play, the faster they go!
Really easy and fun!

UPDATE:
Completely new design!
Let me help you out with the Google Play link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.DainiusSal.simplegame
The game is simple and fun! Maybe you could add leaderboards? And sound+music?

Neat.
And I completely agree with Entangled Multiverse. You should look into adding Leaderboards (Google Play Game Services ?).

Great! Looking forward to the next version
I finally added some music and sounds!
I just downloaded it and have to admint that it´s quite addictive as simple as it is
To give some constructive feedback:
- I would like to see a nicer menu (the grey buttons look pretty unhappy)
- It would be nice to have a settings-menu (or if there are no others things to set at least a "mute" button somewhere)
- The ingame graphics could also be optimized a little mit. I don´t mean it needs lots of blingbling, but maybe another background
- I have only played for little time, but maybe some variety, e.g. jumping or blinking blocks that let you pass certain times?
Thumbs up for a simple but nice game :good:

Thanks for the feedback!! I will try to improve as much as I can! Already working on some of your points
The funny sound effects really made it. More variety might be good but the simplicity is a good draw too. I noticed the sounds effect played even when you swiped to the side you were already on, not sure if you want to fix that. Maybe make the game work in landscape as well?
Lots of fun

One more update! We redesigned the app from scratch!
Fixed bug where the game closes and crashes after pressing back button in game.
All ads removed!
I'm posting this at the same time as uploading the apk to google play so it might take a few hours for these changes to actually appear in the store
Updates are up and running in the Google Play store!
very nice game
This game is really nice but you should fix game colors. They look a little bit bad
Hi guys,
I've finally finished my first game. It's for ANDROID and already on GOOGLE PLAY.
Classic runner, just JUMP & SURVIVE acceleration. Good Luck! :good:

Thank you so much for your feedback . I am happy to see someone play it. I will try to make some changes with the background and make it lighter. I was more worried about the speed actually and I had some huge stuttering problems, glad to hear it's "only" background for now
small feedback
really good, thanks.
Great game !! :good::good:
Just the background is too dark, please fix it

Thank you, I will. I have usually darkness in my room so it looked ok, when people said it is too dark I went out of my cave and yes, it is awful background.
// UPDATE: I have made some changes with background colour, should be better now.
Reminds me of Bit Trip. Cool game! Thank you.
NEWEST UPDATE:
After some feedback added Camera Lock option in the menu (You can lock camera on Y axis if you want to.)
Added STAR SYSTEM. You will light star everytime you add 20 to your score (20, 40,60 etc.), Biggest STAR is for 150.
DOWNLOAD: = play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dreamhex.Runner
I have also noticed thread name says [APP][2.3+] instead of [GAME][2.3+] sorry for that.
Downloaded it because of your awesome promotion video lol.
"Not bad" -Mom
Looking good for a quick and light game!
Ground
- When the character jump i want to see the graund. Maybe it can be cool with this.
- Buildings can swipe with the character on running.
- You can add powers or power points etc. (up 20 meters run = speed up, up 50 meters run = super jump etc. )
- You can add different environments (forest, city, beach etc.)

Thanks for your reply.
-You can see the ground if you lock camera. (Version 1.3 . Checkbox in the menu, at least I hope it's working )
-I think something like this would ruin your gameplay and you would crash immediately, but I agree it needs something more.
-That's a good idea
IN TOMORROW UPDATE:
Implemented GOOGLE PLAY GAME SERVICES so:
-Achievements
-Leaderboard
-Also camera locked on Y axis as default option. (much better gameplay imo)
look great

Finally finished next UPDATE, also working on a new game. Thanks for you feedback :good: , I appreciate the experience I gained, next games will be hopefully better and 100% according to plan.
Simple, but fun. Great work!
Thanks everyone, I am working on 2 games right now, but guy who mades graphics is lazy and always says tomorrow .
great start!
Hello everyone,
Today I am here to present to you my first game for Android devices, 2D Hole.
2D Hole is an addictive, simple and fun puzzle game.
The goal is simple. You need to use your intelligence in order to fling the white ball correctly, so that it ends up in the black hole.
Seems easy - but is it?
The task gets harder as there are also barriers that you need to avoid. As you pass levels, more barriers will appear, and later on you will even face a Lava Block - touching it is an instant game over.
You will come across several Powerups at some levels - collect them to get various buffs!
You will also gather Coins that you can spend on extra ball flings!
The game also features a Point system that never gets reset so that you can always monitor your overall performance!
In addition, the ball's speed will reduce at a specific value whenever it touches a barrier or the screen's edges.
2D Hole has a very user friendly graphical user interface and starting playing is a piece of cake that takes one or two seconds!
Moreover, you get to play in a pleasant environment, with colorful backgrounds that change in every level.
There are also fantastic and realistic sound effects that do make the playing experience even better!
Additionally, vibrations are also there every time the ball goes into the hole.
Regarding the levels, 2D Hole has infinite. That means that nothing can stop you from being the best around and you will never stop trying getting a better high score.
About each level’s difficulty, its random. That means that its not going from easy to hard as you go on levels. You could face a hard level 1 and an easy level 10. Its all about luck when it comes to what you will have to face.
For a complete guide about the buttons' and barriers' functionality and more, you can always head to the Guide page, by pressing the button at the first page.
Try 2D Hole out, either alone or with your friends, and see if you can beat them, or, if you can actually beat yourself by achieving new high scores!
If you want 2D Hole without ad banners, and with a free second fling for every level, and if you want to support me and my effort, you can buy 2D Hole PRO for a ridiculously low price!
2D Hole is made with the help of the MIT App Inventor.
Obviously you might find some bugs. Please report them here.
Also, tell me your opinions! I love getting feedback.
I hope you like it!
Thanks in advance.
Congratulations your first mobile game!
