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.

Android Math Game for Kids

Math is Easy is simple android math game for kids.
As all of my educational games this one will be free and won't have ads.
You can get it from the app store - Math Is Easy.

The game is about solving very simple problems with plus and minus. It has two difficulty options - easy for single digit operations and hard for addiction and subtraction of two digit numbers.

The game doesn't ask for any permissions as it is not using anything outside of it.

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.

Playing some agar.io

As its the end of the year I tried to spent more time having fun. So here is me, eating other players in agario. The game has very simple concept but it turns out that the most simple and straightforward mechanics are the best to make amazing gameplay. Eat or be eaten. Its so much like the real world.
Anyway my strategy in this game is relatively simple - go to one corner and try to make other players disoriented and eat them while they think what to do and where to flee. It works as you see from my screenshot. ;)
From the moment you get on the leaderboard its a bit mo slow to grow and harder to play as you need bigger enemies to eat. But with enough luck you can get the first place.

Android game development with libgdx

Recently I've discovered an amazing android game library - libgdx. Its not only an android library as it can produce ios, html and desktop games with you writing only once.

I'll stop myself from babbling all about this fun engine as I plan to make several small tutorials on the basics of it. It will be fun and also can help some people to start make mobile games.

As Christmas is near I think I must make something in the spirit of it, so maybe decorating my blog in some stupid Christmas patterns?

Solitaires, spring and some courses

Its hot outside and I must finish several solitaire games for 100solitaires.com. Working is not as fun when you want to be outside and play.
Anyway solitaires are extremely fun and addicting genre and I wanted to work on some similar project for some time.

Maybe I am masochist but instead of having some free time recently I am using all my time to study. Currently I've started several courses at coursera and I want to start a bit more.

• Programming Mobile Services for Android Handheld Systems: Concurrency - very interesting course. My future plans are strongly related to Android so this course is extremely important for me.
• Introduction to Finance - as a finance idiot I need this one. You can see some fundamental principles and I hope it can help me some day when I'll be super rich.
• Introduction to Marketing - this one is to learn to sell my services better. Most of the time this skill is the one making money, not the programming. You may have amazing skills or product but if you can't promote it you won't make money from it.
