Tiny Stack - Marshmallow stacking game

Post by Ologon »

Tiny Stack is now available for iPhone/iPad/iPod touch on the AppStore! (iTunes Link: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/tiny-st ... &ls=1&mt=8)

As usual, Ogre3D turned out to be an excellent choice. Thanks a lot to the Ogre Community for the technical support ! :D

And last but not least, here's a trailer for the game:

Hi!

I'm happy to announce a new ogre powered iOS game i'm currently working on. Hopefully, it will be available on the AppStore this autumn or right after summer :)
The game is a 2.5D physics game in which your goal is to stack... marshmallows!
While you're busy building your stack there are coins to collect around, and special events which will make your job really fun.

The game will feature different themed worlds, IAP and game center integration. (Online leaderboards/achievements)

Here's some screenshots:

Some details about my game engine:
*Ogre3D for rendering (thanks masterfalcon for gles!)
*Box2D for physics
*CricketAudio for sound
*Betajen's Gorilla with few enhanced features for GUI. (Sprite rotation, layered screens)

Looks very polished and attractive. Definitely does not look like programmer art. Great job! One tip: You should make the marshmallows look more like cylinders than cubes.

Is that Box2D I'm seeing? Looks very nicely done and well polished :)
During the code inspection, a couple of minor points were noticed: -

Function inlining was critical to performance.
For MSVC, at least, a "delete 0" caused execution of 11 assembly instructions, including a function call. So in cases where performance is at an absolute premium it can be worth inserting the extra manual test.

Yes it is! While the game is in 3D, the objects only move in two directions so Box2D was a perfect fit :D

Thank you! Can't promise anything yet, but there might be a PC version and/or Android version in the future. :)
One problem though, I don't own an android device for real testing and I believe android runs on devices which are different in resolution/power. This makes android harder to support :/
Also I don't know if Ogre is already stable on that platform?
