LiveCode Forums.

Hi, all. My first LC iOS app is now live in the app store and I'm happy to say that it was a pain free process!
It's called 'snowballer' and it's by 'splash21'. Searching for either should find it.

I threw in multiple animated objects, sounds and file access for saving the high score. Please give any feedback - especially regarding performance on devices.

Happy days

splash21:

Great! I just downloaded it to my iPad and everything looks great!

Took me a minute to get the hang of the launcher, but once I "got it" I "got it"!

Keep up the great work, and Happy Holidays,

Yes, worked fine- Launcher is easy to manage, just takes some experience learning how far to pull it- but that's what makes it a game.
Good job.

Wow! very cool and apropiate for this season

...just updating my iPhone4 to test it.... well, my son will test it

On iPhone4 run very nice and the performance is also good.

Are you used the AnimationEngine from Debrill to create the shots angle and movements?

Will be great if you can post some info about the animation for example, to show and hide the snowmans...



Salut,

Very cool! Runs fine on my iPod Touch. Nifty idea for a game, and great graphics.

nice job. I just started developing in Livecode and so far it has been great.

Thanks to everyone for the feedback. I also got some good suggestions from the mailing list and will update the game shortly.

Josep - it doesn't use animation engine. I'll post some code on rev online - it'll be great to see some more LC apps making their way into the app store.

Hi,

Great! I'd like to see your code to learn...

Salut,

I just bought the animation engine and I'm just exploring it. I'm an old hypercard enthusiast so this is bringing back some old memories. I'd also love to see some of your code as you're willing to share.

Thanks,

Bert

Animation Engine is amazing, I just using it from a few weeks and the results are really nice.

Attach my last experiment... to try to move a sprite with animation with the cursor keys, and detect the collisions with other sprites.

I added the 'Snowman example' stack to rev online. The 2 simple mechanisms in the stack are the main building blocks for the game

Congratulations, very well done.

Game is very playable on both a first-gen iPod Touch (iOS 3.1.3) and an iPad (iOS 4.2.1). Game is a tiny bit slower on the iPod, but still very enjoyable.

Thanks for sharing the code, it's greatly appreciated.

Again, very well done.

Hello

Apps is very nice and working fine on IPHONE 3Gs version 4.1

GOOD WORK!!!

Thanks for all the feedback, it's great to know that everything seems to be working well on all devices.
New version available also has high score tables

Like the app. Running it on my iPad without any issues. Pretty fun little game (current high score leader - although I am sure not too many people have played the updated version yet to beat my score of 350,000).

2 suggestions:
Have it timed so you can't st sit back and wait for the 'easy' shots
Create an iPad version so the graphics aren't so pixelated when viewing on the large screen.

Again well done. Can't wait until I get my first app ready for the store...
