Hi everyone! Some of you may remember my game Twinbots. It's a game I made for the Stencyl Jam: http://community.stencyl.com/index.php/topic,26844.0.html

For those who don't, Twinbots is a puzzle/platforming game. The goal is to take the twinbots to the exit door in each level. The twinbots are little creatures that share their mind, which means that they move simultaneously, so you will control multiple twinbots at the same time. This mechanic is combined with other classics as spinning saws, spikes, teleporters or acid pools,  resulting in a variety of levels. Some levels require more skill while others need some prior planning.

Since I still think this is my best game in regard to game/level design, I decided to port it to Android. Although some adjustments were needed (screen proportions, controls, etc), the port was really easy to make thanks to Stencyl. After a few minutes of work I had the first prototype running on my phone, which is great! I've also modified some levels and added extra ones, making a total of 42.

Please take a look:

Google Play (Pro Version: No ads/banners):

Some screenshots:







I'll update with stats soon. We will see how well or bad it performs
I hope you enjoy the game

Have you done any type of marketing to promote your app?

Well I tried multiple things I learned about apps marketing by searching on Google for tips. I made a game trailer, tried some ASO in game's description, posted on forums, emailed reviewers...

Wery nice! I like it!

Thank you!

I decided to turn them off by default because they made fps drop in older devices. My priority was to have fluid gameplay and I didn't want to give a bad impression to users owning an old device.
However, they can be turned on in the pause menu

Hi LIBERADO, thank you!

Well, that was a tricky thing. When I started adding the falling fruits I was worried because when there were a lot of them on the screen, fps would drop down a lot. To improve this I had to remove all the physics of the falling fruits, making them move manually (no gravity) and ignoring all collisions. So to know when a fruit should stop falling I update an array with the position of the fruits, checking if the next space is empty or there is a fruit on it. I basically tried to avoid using any physics or collisions.

I have 4 games in the approval Q now. lets see what happends

Good luck!

By the way, my game is finally live:
http://www.mindjolt.com/fruit-rush.html
As you can see the scores are shown out of the game, at the bottom.

They also publish the games in facebook:
https://apps.facebook.com/mindjolt/games/fruit-rush

They don't share scores between these two versions though.

I am not sure about your new one, somehow the contour looks odd

I uploaded the wrong one sorry, this is the one I'm using:

Number 1...

naaah, Number 2 as you suggested! I also created some polls in other forums and the overall opinion was that number 2 was the best of those 5, so I've been using it for some time now.

But since the game is not being downloaded a lot I'm willing to experiment a bit more with it, so I've just changed the icon for an even simpler one:



This one is so simple but I think the strong color makes it stand out a bit more. We'll see how it goes.

Can you make it that it shows scores as well. Just uploaded my first game to mindjolt.

I don't know how it works when the game is live (mine is not yet) but there is no API function for showing scores. Maybe the submit score function does it when the game is live, I'll tell you.
