APP- Zombie Survival Handbook

I posted this in the nexus one apps topic but it should probably go here
V 1.0 of the Zombie Survival Handbook is now out, and I would love feedback. If you don't want to spend the 0.99, I would still appreciate thoughts as to what type of things you would want in this sort of app.
Current items that aren't found in normal zed apps:
Excerpts from the army survival guide for survival on the go in a variety of climates
Cultural overview of zeds myths from different parts of the world
Historical overview of how our modern zombie was shaped over the last 100 years
One of the suggestions was a review of modern zed literature + movies, and here are some of my favorites at least that you may not have seen
The original REC (quarantine)- was amazing.
FIDO was very well done.
Dance of the dead was low budget but fun to watch.
and I've heard good things about ' Dead Set' but haven't seen it yet- 6 episode 'what if' in which the big brother house is assaulted by zombies. (They're cut off from the world so don't realize z-day is here)

Well, seeing as we haven't had any zombie attacks yet, I have no real input...
I will test it though, could be a good read just in case.

A barcode to scan in OP would be nice.
Anyway, trying it out

I thought dead set was pretty good, not my favorite, but certainly better then a lot of the other zombie movies that are around.

If there some sort of guarantee?? If I spend 99 cents and end up being a Zed I'm going to want my $$ back or the equivalent in brains depending on how Im feeling.

With the android market you always have 24 hours to cancel after your *first* purchase for a full refund.
If it's longer than that and you feel like I truly put out crap, I'll do whatever I can to help you. I suggest going with the 24 hour route since I feel at the very least I am responsive.

Any relation to the book The Zombie Survial Guide by Max Brooks? If so, I'd gladly give up my $0.99

The only relation is in the general theme.
Brooks did a good job but created a backstory for his type of zombie with the fictional Solanum virus. It also assumes the role of a world which has already had outbreaks particular to his class of zombie.
This app goes with a more generalized focus on survival, also using portion of the army survival guide for wilderness survival for its 'on the run' section. I.E.- Finding food in a desert environment, or avoiding heat casualties / frostbite related injuries in a desert/arctic environment respectively.
The cultural overview is something I'm always looking out for, zombie like creatures and references throughout history. I've received some feedback but would love it if more people emailed with little tidbits

[Game] Magic pen on Android

Hello all,
Base a very good flash game, we have just made and released a version for Android. Could you please play and give us some feedback?
Enjoy,
Description said:
Magic Pen is not a strange game for most of people who love solving puzzle games yet the first Android version of the well-known namesake presented as Flash game in BubbleBox’s website.
From the first sight until getting addicted, Magic Pen will brush away sorrow and worries of your real life by bringing you back to your childhood with full of playful and innocent drawing. Way back in 1678 Isaac Newton wrote down the famous three laws of motion. Presently, these three basic rules have finally found their use in this funny game. You are presented a hands-on experience seeing these basic rules of physics being applied to the shape you have just draw. Each time you move your finger; colorful shapes appear as if they have never been more beautiful and magical than ever. If you draw a ball, it can roll over on the ground; if you draw a car, it can move downhill while carrying other shapes.
However, this puzzle game also contains challenging levels that can defeat you dozens of times, so be smart as possible to see who wins every level with the least shapes used. You can connect object with pins and hinges to make machines that come to life just as they got impact by gravity. Make clever use of their momentum to reach your flags.

Beaver Karts: More than Driftwood?

The Lowdown
I was looking for something fun to play on phone and I came across this. It was free in the app store so I figured that I’d lose nothing by trying it out. The first thing that I noticed was the cover art which presented itself as cute and colorful. I wondered if this would translate to the game as well since, for me, cute is almost always a good thing. As I downloaded the app, I kept wondering about how silly the entire concept was. I thought to myself, “What is the point of such a weird game?” The game revolves about you being a Beaver with his own custom wooden cart. Apparently, this Beaver has a nasty need for speed and spends his time travelling downhill (and aiming for an X-games promotion) in his cart. To make things interesting, you can perform an assortment of tricks such as wheelies and flips.
Learning the Ropes
The game is pretty basic. You will have to guide the Beaver on his downhill descent as you perform a series of tricks. You have 2 buttons to control the cart: tilt forward or tilt backward. Tilting the cart backward, for instance, will allow you to ride on only 2 wheels (classified as a wheelie) and will grant you bonus points. Doing a tilt after a jump will make the cart flip which is worth massive points (given that you land safely). You will also have to collect gold coins on the downhill path to glory. One thing to remember is that you have a limited amount of fuel to burn during the stage and this is what limits your journey.
Gold collected will determine the types of upgrades you can afford for tricking out your Beaver cart. I’m not sure if these upgrades affect the performance of your vehicle or are purely aesthetic in nature. Take note that before starting a stage, you have 3 specific goals that you can opt to do during your downhill run. Accomplishing them grants you bonus gold and that’s what you want to do in order to earn more and upgrade your cart.
There are power-ups in the shop which you can purchase with gold or purple acorns. I guess that is the premium currency for the game which you can buy with real money. Some of the powerups that can make your run more interesting.
Not a Wallet Hurter
I got the game for free in the app store. Not bad since you get to you can try it out at no cost.
What I think
I like the game due to the simplicity of its graphics which comes out as a cute cartoony experience. It is simple yet entertaining. Unfortunately, it is far from perfect. I find a big lack in terms of customization. There are only a few choices of upgrades to choose from (around 5 per category). Also, you are stuck with the beaver. Not that I don’t like him or anything but, I would very much want to see a giraffe try to cart. Some mini-games would also help break the monotony that comes after a while.
I suggest keeping this at hand during lull times. This might In fact, it might be worth using while waiting for the bus, waiting for your food in restaurants, or during your breaks to the bathroom.

This is actually a good game. Challenging yet fun at the same time.:good:

Tried this one out but the game is too challenging for me. It was hard controlling the beaver's kart. I always crash and burn. Poor beaver.

I thought the game was for kids, it was hard to control at first but eventually I got a hang of it. It was actually fun.

I've downloaded this game a few weeks back and was surprise that you made a review about this game. I totally agree with the points that you have stated in your article. The game is fun but hard at first. Luckily, I was patient enough to keep on playing the game until I got a hang of it.

groan RExesd
My curiosity got the best of me and I've downloaded this game. It is frustrating at first but since I am really competitive I wanted to perfect my every run. Now, I can double backflip and frontflip. I'm aiming to perfect my wheelies and to achieve a triple backflip/frontflip. :highfive:

Pretty cool, but you really need to add deadzone to the dpad, its super hard to aim. Unless thats intended of course.

Thank you, i am glad you liked it
Mmmm...on what device have you tried it? cause the aiming pad should have a small deadzone actually....on my xperia arcS it seemed big enough for a good aiming (considering the pad itself is independent of resolution it should be as big as it was on my phone anyway......the problem now is understanding if it is too small generally speaking even though it seemed enough to me or if is some kind of bug).

i'll take another look at the code to see if there is something wrong maybe in there.....have you tried lowering the sensitivity settings in the main menu? maybe it is just too fast moving for you....i added that slider to try to suit everyone's gamestyle....but probably you already tried it

Good looking game with a lot of potential. If you want my opinion I think you should make the controls at least twice as big, it was tough to get my finger onto the right spot when playing (on a Galaxy s5). Also I think you should either reconsider your fonts to something a little simpler or at least add a stroke (border) to all of your text, especially on buttons. As it is, it's tough for me to read it in a lot of parts.
Edit: Also in general I think you should brighten the lighting and make the shadows less opaque.

Thank you for your suggestions, i'll think about them for sure....you're the second person telling me the font is not too clear....i liked it, but if it is difficult to read i will simply swap it for something else.
On the dimensions of the controls i am not too sure to increase them too much...i tested a pair of other fps style games and they had similar dimensions it seemed to me....i can enlarge them a bit maybe but i think twice is too much

Awesome game! I love the idea it definitely has potential did you do this by your self?? And how long did it take you or your team? Overall the game is smooth and fun but I agree with the controls I think they need to be re calibrated they are a little bit wonky on my Note 3. As for the font issue I don't really mind it i'm not too picky about fonts xD
Keep up the good work!

Very nice game. I also like the style of the graphics. How many people worked on it and how long did it take you? I think it will be a success in the world of mobile phones.

thank you for your words guys, i really appreciate them
I worked on the game all by myself and it took around 2-3 months to complete....spread the words to your friends if you can, i could really use some more downloads to get noticed since we all know this is a key point in having success in the market
I'll look at the controls and increase the dead zone a bit then if it seems to be a common problem, probably it means that i am the strange one finding them good as they are
