Hey all, finally have something worth showing with AppGameKit so here it is. I'm entering this into an educational video games contest (still have some work to do to make it more educational) but wanted to get some opinions before its due.

Yes, its a projectile game, but I wanted to make it a little more interesting so you actually have to pressurize your soda bottle rocket to launch it. Not enough pressure and it won't go anywhere, too much and it will explode on the launch pad (still have to animate that, so couldn't show it off)

Let me know what you think!

Nice work man I hope you make the graphics more streamline though !!!

try having a look at chu-chu rocket for an idea

EDIT

here is a vid



well it was just a thought that came to mind immediately... can not figure out why now lol

oh and sorry I added your video above just to make it quicker for people to view sooner than having to open a new window ^^

have a look at the email associated to my original reply not this edit and you should see how the coding works

It's fine, but why use VirtualButtons? Their style is -oh-uh-. Better to change their graphics.

Yeah, virtual buttons are next on my hitlist, most likely replacing them all together with just sprites. Graphics are next, only half of them are updated beyond my initial sketches.

And thanks MrValentine for embedding the video, how exactly did you do that, I tried a few times to get it to work and it never did.
