[GAME] qb - 3d puzzle game

today me and pavethem released qb.
qb is a free 3d puzzle game for android, windows, mac and linux.
market: https://market.android.com/details?id=de.redlion.qb
website (with a pc version): http://bompo.github.com/mgcube
Guide the sphere to the exit. Only a block can stop it once the sphere moves. So use the blocks wisely to reach the exit. But it won't be as easy as that! Portals, switches and even movable blocks will challenge your brain. The game features 24 mind-bending levels along with local highscores and a time attack mode. Create your own levels with the ingame editor. Enjoy the 3d graphics and a soundtrack written by bitbof.

Free? Oh, going to try, thanks.

Thanks I will try it out also.

So, what did you think of the game? Any recommendations for future updates?

Thanks, I really like the game, performs good on my galaxy 3.
Maybe the sphere could be a little faster sometimes.

I actually downloaded this last night without seeing this thread. I liked the game, the only frustrating part was once in a while I'd launch a ball to its death and I'd have to start over from the beginning.
Any reason why you couldn't start from where you last were? Did you guys try that and decide it was too easy?

Could be that the game runs to slow on your phone. The sphere moves slower if you don't reach 30fps (Otherwise it would fly through blocks because our collision detection isn't good :/). Disabling the bloom effect in the options should help to increase the fps.

If you take a wrong path, the level could become impossible to solve. That's why it always starts from the beginning.

Cool, I will try

thanks thanks thanks

Sounds awesome, I'll give it a spin on my PC for a while and will download it on my phone later.

I love it!!

Thanks, rate if you like it!
Is anyone using the level editor?

Looks like a fun game

Anyone interested to get their custom levels included into the next update? If so then we could add a option into the next update to share your custom levels.

If anyone wants to have a look at the source code, the code is available here. It's cowboy coded so don't take it as a starting point if you are a beginner...

Cool game reminds me of the old dos game with the snake, was in dos editor i think. brain fart cant remember the name of it. Oh well thanks

[GAME][1.6+] Binary Sudoku 1.0.8

Hi xda,
I'm new here, but wanted to post my first game to get some more feedback.
Android Market: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rickboerebach.android.binarysudoku
The game is free, has no ads, requires no permissions and currently has 100 puzzles, which guarantee about 8-12 hours of puzzle time
The Binary Puzzle:
The binary puzzle is a new and challenging logic puzzle that you can solve by
reasoning. Only zeros and ones occur in the puzzle, but this turns out to be
more complicated than it seems to be. This app offers binary puzzles of various
sizes and levels. A last warning: The binary puzzle is quite addictive.
Rules:
Each cell should contain a zero or a one. No more than two similar numbers
below or next to each other are allowed. Each row and each column is unique
and contains as many zeros as ones.

Version 1.0.9 released.
Updates:
-Bug fixes

will definitely check this out later. Two of my favorite things

Great Feel free to suggest features / changes.

I've been waiting for a binary sudoku app for literally months. Thank you, sir, for bringing this awesome puzzle game to my phone at last!
Will install immediately, and report back on how I like it.

Great idea!
Here's a link for the lazy people:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rickboerebach.android.binarysudoku

Thanks for the replies. If you have any feedback or suggestions, feel free to post
Just updated to version 1.2.0 with OpenFeint highscores & achievements (suggestions for achievements are welcome)!

Nice game!
Good job man.

Thanks for creating this app! I love puzzle apps that rely more on the puzzle and less on the graphics & sounds!
Installing it now & will let you know.
EDIT: Going through the easy levels & loving the simple logic used (so far, simple
Questions
Each row & each column is unique - I presume that you can have the same sequence of numbers in a row & a column (just not 2 rows with the same sequence)? I haven't hit it yet, but want to know for when I hit them.
Are the solutions unique? Can each one be solved strictly with logic (ie, no guess needed to go on)?
Is this your own puzzle idea? I can't say I've heard of it before (will google shortly)
Thanks again!

Nice game -- just played through some easy levels. Definitely a fun little game.

Cool! You can add "easy" or "beginner" level

I'm really bad at sudoku, but I'm willing to give this one a shot since it's binary

Looks like a very solid app. However, would it be possible to add the functionality of adding your own puzzles? Like in OpenSudoku, where you can create your own sudoku from a blank grid; that way you can copy a puzzle from the newspaper that someone else has already filled in, for example, and still do it yourself.
That, and more puzzles, would be awesome.

Yeah, you can have the same sequence of numbers in a row and column and solutions are unique and can be solved strictly with logic.
Sadly, it's not my own puzzle idea i saw a puzzlebook with this type of puzzles at the local magazine store and pretty much got addicted. Tho, a puzzlebook is not convenient in the train etc, and there was no app for it. I'm a developer myself and decided to invest a day of work in making my personal traveling more fun, and introducing this puzzle to the rest of the Android world

App Review
This apps looks great. I'm going to download this and review it on my blog (Android Cowboy) as soon as I can. I'll put the link once it's posted. Hopefully it will help get you more downloads .

Thanks for writing a post on the frontpage, didn't expect it to be reviewed This will definitely boost downloads!
Also, thanks to everybody who downloaded (and rated/reviewed) the game

Yeah, great idea. I want to implement more community aspects, but I first want to see how things turn out. If the game gets popular, I can get a dedicated server and write an API backend for these kind of things

Hey, rickboerebach
Thanks a lot for your efforts. Your game is very amusing. It's, indeed, pretty addictive!
Please, correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems that the harder the level, it gets easier to reach more than one solution, but your application accepts one of them only.
Thanks again, anyway.
Best regards,
Carlos

Glad you like it. Each puzzle only has one solution People tend to forget the row/column uniqueness rule, maybe you overlooked that one? Each row has to be unique and each column has to be unique. Tho, you can have the same sequence of numbers in a row and a column.

Oops, you're right! Had forgotten that rule!
Thanks, again.

I downloaded your game and played a few levels, it's simple but challenging.
I really like it, I'm going to spend some more time with it at the university tomorrow.

[GAME][2.3+] Scary Copter - Halloween Flight

Hello!
I want to show you my first android game, that i just published on Google Play
Its called Scary Copter - Halloween Flight
So as you can see, theme is very actual, as tonight is the Halloween night
Its free, fast and fun flying game, based on old, well known idea of helicopter game.
Navigate through narrowing tunnel, avoid obstacles, dont crash and fly as far as you can.
Enjoy dynamic, yet smooth and responsive flying model. Have fun.
Im new here, so i cant publish links to Google Play nor any screenshoots. Look for game called "scary copter", with icon showing Witch flying broom silhouette against full moon Package name is: com.mobador.scarycopter
I did my best to make "Scary Copter" bug free. Looks solid to me, but im a beginner, so I'll apreciate any opinions about this game.
Thanks in advance.
Adam

Play Store Link
Haven't had time to play it yet, but here is a Play Store link.

Looks pretty good, i quite like the colouring and theme. Can you tell me if there's any plans for updates in the future? (I'm a suckers for new content and features )

Thank you for nice words. Its simple game, but simple doesnt mean ugly. There is so many fun games on Google Play, that just have poor gfx. I wanted to avoid it and make graphic assets, that will be pleasant for eye. I'm not an artist myself, but I did my best to make the game look as good as possible. Colours that fit each other are very important part of every image, so i put attention into it too.
And about update plans, there are some, yeah.
I want to implement some kind of online high score board, so players can share their best scores, for others to compare.
I also need to fix some graphic issues. Game is made in 800x480 resolution, and on such devices, it looks realy good. Like mine Samsung Galaxy S Advance. But on devices with different resolution, pictures doesnt look so good, edges are sharp, not smooth. Game still works fine, but well, details could look better.
There are also some extra features planned, but im a busy guy, much work, wife, kid, so it can take some time
Actualy, at first the game was meant to look different, there was "classic" game mode, and "extended" one, with power-ups. And more graphic themes, that players can unlock while playing, and then select their favourite theme. I even have working prototype.
But im a beginner, so i decided to make it simplier from the start, to avoid mistakes. The longer the code, the bigger chance for bugs
Another thing is, preparing different graphic themes is also time-consuming, i dont want to put crappy graphic into my game. I put much attention into details, so i was afraid, if i will stick to more complex game idea, it will take months longer to finish and publish. Therefore i made it simplier, with dedicated Halloween theme, and there it is, finally...
If people will download it, and i will know they like it, i will for sure work on extended game
So, download and rate please, to keep my motivation up

[GAME][4.0+] Zero - a Numbers Puzzle Game (cross platform - android and ios)

Hi guys =)
My latest project made it into the appstores finally, its called "Zero - a Numbers Puzzle Game".
It was an experiment playing around with a cross platform app framework. And i would appreciate some feedback about how you guys think the result turned out. I would be not just interested in feedback about the gameplay itself but also about how it is performing on your devices, if there are any problems or everything runs smoothly.
Whats it about:
In the game you see some blocks with numbers in it, your goal is to bring the whole playfield to 0. when you tap a block, the blocks to the left, the right, above and below it will get reduced by one (if there are any). the field (and difficulty) grows with each level.
Here are the links: Google Playstore and in case somebody has an ios device: itunes appstore
i also made this short video to show the gameplay. (it looks more complicating than it is )

Awesome puzzle game with refreshing gameplay (I have not seen anything like that before)!!
Suggestions for future versions:
-maybe some optional music?
-different difficulty levels, especially an easier one with more retries?

Maybe some design work needed but i like the game.

what exactly do you mean? which parts of the game could need a new/better design?

In my opinion, the navigation bar could look a lot better

Hi, I like the game and let others decide on the design.
For the game itself, could you have shortcuts to a level? I've gotten to 66, and it is frustrating to restart all the way at 1, and has actually been a reason why I just don't play very much anymore.
Every 10 or 15 levels would be good shortcut areas.
Thanks!

Can you show us the 9gag post? And why are people writing in the comments that they were coming from 9gag?

Nice graphics!

Hi everyone!
For reasons I don't fully understand (well, anti-spam policy), I couldn't post any link or pictures, so thanks a lot @kirito9 for adding the link.
About the 9gags comments, well, I'm an avid 9gagger (it ruins 1 hour of my sleep every night...), so I decided to show off my game to the community and ask them for update's material suggestion. And I got a LOT of ideas coming from it:
9gag.com/gag/agNjPGw/this-is-airmadness-a-little-game-i-made-i-d-like-your-suggestions-for-next-planes-environments-please
Feel free to do the same and suggest planes and/or environments ideas!
Cheers!
Julien

I must say the idea is a bit overused, but I really liked the graphics. A lot.
When I played it I failed to see some type of qualitative progression. A great improvement would be to change the scenes dynamically as if they were levels (sky then sea then land then volcanoes then...) but it might take you a lot to add many scenarios with other objects than rocks. Maybe with other landscapes you can add moving objects and increase the variety.
Meanwhile, if Unity supports tilt movement you can add it.
Hope you find it useful!

@randomlabs Thanks. For sure, the concept isn't new. It's really really close to a "Race the Sun" for example, but I wanted the environments a bit more real, less etheric.
I plan on adding more environments and planes. A "story" mode, where you have to finish all levels in a row with at least 2000 points is a very good idea. I'll consider that kind of udpate.
Julien
