After a few weeks of work, and sharing the initial concept with some friends and colleagues, I was encouraged to create a mobile version of my puzzle game: Flipcards.
The concept is simple: you're given a photo and a set of moves that correspond to either a clockwise or counter-clockwise rotation of 90 degrees. You then need to find between 4 rotated photos which one corresponds to the sum of rotations before the end of the round.
There are currently 3 levels of difficulty, high scores, and a way for users to use their own photos from the gallery to play with. Finally, on iOS, in the home screen, you have a physics-based background which reacts to sensors and user interactions.
I know some of you are fond of puzzle games and I was looking for honest feedback on the game and store page:
- Is the gameplay fun? - What could I add/remove to improve it? - Is the tutorial explicit enough? - Are the store page clear enough on the end product?
Links:
- iOS: https://apps.apple.com/jo/app/flipcards-photo-puzzle-game/id... - Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dev.halftheopp...
If you're interested about the tech stack: React Native, Expo, and Skia (even the animated background on iOS).
Happy to hear out from you!
