Work in progress - English Test App

English Tests is my current work in progress - its a light quiz app. Here are some screenshots of it. This time it is not a game and its in the education field as school is coming for the kids. I hope that my app will be useful for people learning English. 

These tests are meant to be fun to solve. I will add a link here as soon as the app is finished and published. Expect Android version and eventually regular Web version of it. Learning apps are my passion since long ago. I often like to test my knowledge in one field or another. Its just another form of fun for me. 

Blocks Breaking - android collapse game

Blocks Breaking is classic collapse game for android.

Midnight solitaire for android

Midnight is relatively easy solitaire similar to Yukon. Its easy to learn and fun to play. The game has many popular features including unlimited undo button and persistent state - you can close the app and open again the same game later. The game has no ads and will stay ads free at least until it gets more than 10 000 downloads - something impossible at least for now.
As my other solitaires its made with HTML5 and cordova. I prefer this combination for simple puzzle and cards games as the development is easier and faster.
You can get Midnight Solitaire from the play store - Midnight Solitaire

Scorpion Solitaire

Scorpion solitaire is the next classic solitaire for Android and HTML5. It is played with standard deck of 54 cards but in my variation of the game you can play with one suit, two suit or four suit. One suit as always is the easiest and you can solve it almost any time.
The game has unlimited undos so if there is a problem you can hit undo until you want. Its fun solitaire similar to spider but you can move any open card and all the cards on top of it regardless suit or number.

The game saves its state and you can close and open the game with your game saved. There are also a bunch of nice colorful images and cats and other animals as backgrounds if you prefer them while playing. And the most important part - its free.
You can get Scorpion Solitaire for free from the play store - Scorpion Solitaire.
HTML5 version of this solitaire will be available a bit later at a1-games.com

Again the game is made with HTML5, Phaser and Cordova.

Spider Solitaire Relax for Android

Yet another solitaire in my solitaire relax series - Spider Solitaire is one of the most popular solitaire games - with one suit its relatively easy but with four suits its almost impossible for me. The spider as a background can be changed to something else so don't feel threatened - I hate spiders but I can't harm them and they are living peacefully at home. We have one big spider in our bathroom and her name is Penka - she is my inspiration for the Spider and Spiderette solitaires.

You can get Spider Solitaire Relax from the android play store - Spider Solitaire 

HTML5 version will be available in few days at this site for mobile browser games.

Edit: HTML5 version is ready, you can play it here Spider Solitaire.

Spiderette Solitaire for android phones and tablets

Finally, I finished this solitaire. Spiderette solitaire is fun variation of Spider solitaire with klondike-like settings. With one suit its pretty easy but with 4 suit its almost unsolvable or at least for me.
The rules are the same as Spider - you build down in suit from king to ace to remove this sequence.
The game is made with html5 and phaser and then packed with cordova for android.

You can get this game for android from google play store - Spiderette Solitaire Relax

Here you can play html5 version of Spiderette Solitaire Relax.

And finally I had some free time and finished the flash version of the game - its a bit different of the other versions - you can play Flash Spiderette Solitaire at 100solitaires.com.

Klondike and Alaska Solitaires for android

Klondike Solitaire is one of the most played solitaire games at all time. Its easy to solve and great way to spend some time waiting or relaxing with your phone. As a solitaire maniac I had to make my version of it. Also as I like cats I had to add many cat photos as backgrounds, so the players can enjoy it even more.

Here you can get Klondike Solitaire Relax for Android.

And here you can play HTML5 version of the game - Klondike HTML5.

The game is made with HTML5, Phaser and Cordova. This is going to be my favorite combination for simple, 2D android and not only android games. Working with phaser is easy and then exporting it to android is not something complex, overall project time is really short.



Also it has some nice features making animations like this really easy. I choose this one as the win animation but its a bit heavy on mobile so the mobile version is a bit edited and with less cards moving around.








  Alaska Solitaire is another of my favorite solitaires but its actually pretty hard to solve. It was very hard to test the win screen. If you like to challenge yourself here is a link to get it from the play store.

Alaska Solitaire Relax on play store

HTML5 version will be available in few days.

New android game - JelloBlocks

JelloBlocks is fun puzzle collapse game with some jelly blocks. Also specials and bombs. Players can choose to play five different game types - EasyJelly, JellyColors, EasyCollapse, Collapse and Relax.
The game is made with html5 and cordova. Simple html5 version of the game will appear later today on the game site - gg10.net.
The art is not something complex as currently I prefer to play with coding. I have this big problem - how to develop my android games. I have three options and all of them has good and bad parts. First - just java and nothing more. Handling all issues by hand. Its a bit slow but it offers full control. Second - libgdx. Great for 3d games and I intend to work with 3d from now on. And third - html5 and cordova. So at the end I have html5 version to publish on web and android version of app store. I can't choose and I spent a lot of time wondering.
Anyway, here is JelloBlocks link at the app store - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.gg10.JelloBlocks. Please try and rate my app.

Get The Stars now for android

Join the small fairy and collect stars in this exciting little game. The game has easy controls and gameplay.
The good part is that its the same old html5 game with cordova around it. And I am using my favorite Phaser to make it. There are some tricks and tweaks to make everything work with cordova on android but after several days I think I grasped all details.
The most annoying problem with Phaser-Cordova game on android is the audio. Actually its a simple matter but there is not clear information or error messages so developers are left to struggle with this. Anyway, this post here is for my new, amazing android game - Get the Stars.
You can get it from the app store.

HTML5 basics - practical tutorial for game development(part 2)

HTML5 basics - practical tutorial for game development(part 1)
Lets start with part two of our tutorial. In this part I'll show how you can draw with html5 canvas. I'll try to keep the examples as simple as possible, just focusing on one feature at a time.
Basic drawing is actually easy. You can see how to draw a line from the last example in part 1I will continue with drawing a rectangle and then drawing a circle.

HTML5 basics - practical tutorial for game development(part 1)

HTML5 is a markup language of the internet used for structuring and presenting content for the WWW and bla bla. You can read all the detailed explanations for what HTML5 is from Wikipedia. This tutorial is not for that as I am trying to be more practical and provide you with fast start.

First you need an editor. You can work with notepad or something more fancy. I prefer to use something with code completion and some other useful features. Good choice for this is Netbeans. There are some lightweight editors but I haven't tried any of them as Netbeans is doing good work for me.

Good HTML5 game engines

Recently HTML5 games became very popular and this is not without a reason. Most of the time HTML5 game can be played both on mobile and desktop. But it is not that easy to make a game that will work the same way on all systems. HTML5 game engines greatly shorten the time for development a game, and you don't have to write different code for different browsers. Here is a list of some of the most popular engines. The arrangement is according to my own preferences.

1. Phaser - most of my games use Phaser because its simplicity, nice documentation and short learning curve. I recommend this engine to every novice. Use it if you want to start fast.
2. Quintus - another simple and easy to use engine. Nice documentation and fun to use. The reason I don't use it now is that for some reason its not always working with IE 11. I like this engine very much and I don't know why this is happening.
3. melonJS - It says lightweight but don't belive it. But its nice engine.
4. pixi.js - Pixi is very fast on mobile and easy to learn. One of the best choices. Also there are many code samples available so you will find it piece of cake to start.
5. Construct 2 - its more like html5 game maker. And its not free. Not my choice.
6. Crafty - It has some good parts and some bad. For now I won't use it
7. LimeJS - Easy to start and lightweight.
8. GameMaker - its not free, somewhat expensive. If you are not a programmer, it can be a good choice for you.

There are many more engines, maybe there are some even better. But I had to start from somewhere so my obvious choice was Phaser. Its a bit slow on old desktop systems but players of html5 games are using mostly mobile and I like the way it behaves there. You can check my games - Touch Copter and Sky Blocks on my HTML5 games page, both games are made with Phaser.
