Hi, all
Currently I am living in Seoul. I study here as an exchange student, and I have recently attended a G-NEXT Game Jam about a week ago.
One of the games that stood out for me was the game M.O.G.I.
M.O.G.I. is a game that is probably inspired by the current heatwave in the city and the resulting mosquito's. (it’s like 32 degrees here everyday, lol).
You play a mosquito, who is trying to suck the blood out of the humans, without getting killed. If you successfully survive the night, you will start a new generation.
I managed to get 5 generations before I got a game over screen.
When your in Korea, definitely check out the indie scene here. It’s quite amazing and the people are friendly too!
Just had some Korean BBQ with a few of them. I even met someone from XDA, but I can't remember. Hope you got home safe

Say Hello to a new World.
There are few games on mobile that are insanely addictive. Parallel Kingdom AOT, is by far the most intriguing one I have come across. PK comes across as a MMORG, which uses the GPS on your phone to place you in your actual location in game.
The game starts you off as an explorer beginning his/her journey. As you continue your adventure, you level up, get upgraded weapons and armor, and slay monsters day in day out. You constantly play alongside other players, from throughout the world, teaming with them to form kingdoms, cities and alliances.
Parallel Kingdom uses Google Maps as the background, and makes use of GPS satellites to place you in your real life location. New updates including the satellite map feature lead to you actually getting the sense that you are enjoying a high seas adventure with your mates, or leading an expedition through the Sahara desert, or struggling through the Amazon forest, slaying any monsters that come you way.
The great thing about PK is that you continue in the same place you leave. So you don’t have to worry about getting back to where you log off. Perblue devs have managed to create an amazing game through almost a 3-year period.
PK is available on both Android and iOS.The game has reached the 1,000,000 player mark and is spreading fast. The game is a nice change from Angry Birds, and maybe a step away from it and possibly all other games. Don't blame me if you end up becoming a PK addict.

Hello new world......you got WoW por la me?
Seriously try this, this is an epic game. Not the 3-d graphics etc you would normally want from a mobile RPG. However, this is really an exceptional game, and it runs very smoothly, plus its easy to adapt to and very hard to get away from it.
Thanks for the tip, gonna have to try this out now!
Bump, people message me in game, my name's 'democrats', il try to help you out.
hey... Helloooo new world
seem interesting

no thanks.
I believe you're overreacting.
The developers likely use SMS for the in-game chat. Thus why the permission is needed.
looks awesome

The game uses food as a currency. Food can be bought with real cash, dollars pounds etc. One of the payment methods which can be used is Zong. Zong uses messages to get u food, I am not sure about the entire procedure but thats the basics. If you wish to buy food you are directed to a message which if you send gets you the amount of food you want to buy.
This was brought up on the PK forums as well.
hey... Helloooo new world
I sent out messages to all the people who started playing, just send me a if you need any help at all.
Front page?
This game has been out for years, you advertise it on the forum along with your referral code and it gets on the front page? Did you make the game?

I am not one of the devs. However, people at XDA looking for intuitive, exciting, and enjoyable content, and PK, is that. So it was'nt a surprise that this ended up on the front page.
It was maybe lost on the XDA forums, because when I checked for other threads about PK, there were a couple from two years ago.
This is a brilliant game and it deserves to be highlighted on the front page regardless of the day it was launched.

DB - Its people like you that are making XDA what it is now, D-Bags like you....
As far as OP goes, I love this game been playing for a few months too......It's very addicting and constant changes and improvements to gameplay and strategy. The Devs are great at listening to the users and giving them what they want. One of the best parts about this game is it's multi-platform so you are playing with IPhone players as well so the vast amount of people playing is ridiculousness. I got the same name on the game as here so look me up.

LOL! D-Bags made XDA the efficent dev forum we know and love? And I'm one of those d-bags? Oh, I feel special.
As for pk, I played it about 2 years ago, lasted an entire month and a half with me playing seldomly. I'm no longer an active player, but it was a great time waster when there's nothing else to do.
Thats pretty neat
interesting...

Two years ago this game was more or like in its initial stages, but now it's been under developed for quite some time and has improved a lot.
I suggest that you give it another shot, you might get hooked on to it now.
My in-game name is 'democrats' if u still remember your account details log in and send me a message, and I'l help you out.
Hi. Don't take as self adv., but I'm newbie developer, who released few aps and just released one game 3 days ago.
As XDA is the forum where gathered all experienced guys, I wanted to ask for some advices regarding the game.
(Can't attach the links, but it's easy to find by name "AMAZING CIRCLE")
How do you think, is name and icon of the game attractive enough? I don't plan to spend money for promotion, and from 3 days in market, game got 150 downloads. Any advices how to promote game for free?
Thank you for all your replies :cyclops:

I decided to give your game a go. For a first release this is pretty good. I'm not a dev, but a few comments:
1) The game mechanics work well, and i think it's a good enough time-passer
2) Your Google Play listing has poor grammer, I would look into getting this checked by a fluent speaker.
3) The ads are extremely annoying. Enough so that I'm going to uninstall. I understand that this is probably your main monetization strategy, but covering up the "restart" button with an ad is clickbaiting. I don't mind ads so long as not made to accidentally click them, and by doing so it's infuriating me more than failing at the game itself.
4) The graphics are way too minimalistic. I understand you haven't got a AAA budget, but a few tweaks would everything look much better. White background is very dull. Also, if possible I would replace the circles with some textured vectors. If the whole thing looked like balls a tabletop it would much better. If you look at something like flappy birds, the art quality is very high (even if borrowed).
Not trying to slate your app, just giving my honest opinions.
Thanks for reply, darkdreamingdan.
I will check my grammar for sure, didn't see any mistakes Don't have native speaker near though.
I fully understand that interestial ads are bad, but when I tried just banner ads, they brought me like 50 cents per day maximum.
I made a research and almost every game with same kind of idea uses same kind of iterestial ad showing system - unexpected by user.
I'm sure, if I remove the interestial ad (which is shown once per 5-8 replays actually), i will get less than 0.5$ per day which is not great...
(now I'm getting about $10 per day, and game only on market for 3 days)
And basically, users are not offended on this type of add (if I consider what they write in reviews, only few mentioned this).
Finally, just turn off your WiFi . Plus, there is an Ad Free version for a very small price.
BUT. I decided to look, what will happened with app today (how many installs / uninstalls) and on base of it, I will think what to do next.
I'm thinking about graphics as well now... No ideas.
But thank you very much for replies.
Well study your market and create a plan
before making any game just don't jump into the war . there are really big companies are there like gameloft. sometimes you don't have a proper concept but graphics make you better. sometimes concept is better but the overall management is not uptothe mark. well there are ample of ideas available for you.
study,study and study. create plan. do some sort of survey. see some online polls which kind of games are going on these days. what people are liking. before doing that make sure that you knows your right audience. i mean whether it is going to be played by youngsters or it is for smaller kids. you need to add things accordingly.
well you are asking for ideas i know then you knows about these things. as per mine experience in gaming industry, i think you should do market study. sometimes great concepts come from it. ..

Hey there from the Reksiv International team.
Street Drift Simulator has reached 250 in the top new free apps board.
We are a small startup studio in New Zealand with big plans for the future. Our first release, Street Drift Simulator is now available for download on high end tablets and android devices and we would love to hear your feedback.
The app is a free roam drifting game we built over the course of 6 months. After personally spending hours of time scrolling through numerous app stores and review sites with the hope of finding an open world drifting game with quality environments that would push android devices performance to their max, I soon came to the realisation that it currently didn't exist in the scale I had in mind. This led to the initial construction of what would become Street Drift Simulator. This game started development in a very 'not' so serious manner but quickly evolved as I found myself addicted to playing my own creation.
Currently there are 4 different cars available, all of which are based on real cars. (Toyota AE86, Nissan Silvia S13, Toyota Supra and a Nissan R34 GTR.) Each car has unique characteristics such as power level and turbo sounds. There are 6 interchangeable exhaust pipe options, 3 interchangeable spoiler options and 4 different sets of rims available. Aswell as this there are numerous paint jobs available. Only 1 environment named "Downtown" has been created but we have begun development on a second level named "The Docks". After a few comments about the difficulty of the first level for beginners, "The Docks" is being developed with a more open layout in terms of level design.
We will be continually updating this game with extra features regularly as we hope to slowly build a solid fanbase rather than a 15 seconds of fame type exposure. The driving I admit does take some getting use to and we are in the process of making it easier for beginners.
You have the options of an automatic or manual gearbox aswell as button steering or accelerometer/tilt steering. 2 views (close and far) are available but we are leaning towards the idea of an interior camera. 16 hour work days and sleepless nights have, and will continue to be put into this game and we would much appreciate your feedback and opinion of things that we could improve.
Note that you may require a reasonably powerful device or tablet. We will be releasing a mobile optimized version shortly.
We hope you enjoy it.
