Hi,
I was looking forward to test the new AppGameKit 1.07x, so I waited for the last semi-stable version (1.075 for now), and I developed a small game (not so small, about 700 net LoCs).
it is available for free "Kill That Bandit!", a simple reflex trainer game. This is the link:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.texasoftreloaded.KillThatBandit#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDIxMiwiY29tLnRleGFzb2Z0cmVsb2FkZWQuS2lsbFRoYXRCYW5kaXQiXQ..
Here are some cool features:
- mini-micro-tiny Internet scoring systems.
Only scores, no names (for now), but it works. I using a text files (no MySQL) using a super-simple JSON template, and a 30-lines php script on server side.
{
"1": "038.101",
"2": "999",
"3": "999",
"4": "999",
"5": "999",
"6": "999",
"7": "999",
"8": "999",
"9": "088.248"
}
With names, I would to introduce arrays, and my JSON parser would become a little more sophisticated. No problems to do it in the future.
- ads-supported with Inner-Active based. It works. I earned half-a-dollar so far. Pls see report attached.
It uses some of the new AppGameKit 1.07 commands.
Here the new commands used. I found some bugs (or strange behaviour) on EditBox and HTTP, that I'll show in further posts under AppGameKit product chat.

getImage()

Here are some screenshots (without ads).
In the first I used getImage(), setSpriteUVOffset() and setImageWrapV() to create the scrolling chess-like image.

This is a scene of the game with the gun sight that appears when you touch the screen.

This is the screen of the records got and updated through the Internet, using my custom score system

Recommendation or prayer:
Pls avoid negative comments on the graphics, there are here no use because in this game graphics is completely ancillary to the purpose of the game. I used FREE TGC bandit (medieval) and western sheriff, it's a little anachronistic, but maybe they are time travellers
