Creating a game for Google Android: Part 1

Hi folks! In this tutorial series we’ll build a simple Frogger game for Google Android. You will see how to setup an Android application, how to create menus, the life cycle of a process in Android, how to work with graphics, how to work with sounds and much more!

In this first part we’ll setup our application and create the first screen of our game: the menu screen. I’ll use Eclipse as a IDE for this tutorial since it provide many tools and is really simple to develop with it, but you can use whatever other IDE you want.

Gazeta do Povo Penalty Kick Game

The Project

This project was developed to the Gazeta do Povo newspaper (a local newspaper from Curitiba, Brazil) in the Promoonline agency. The game is part of a promotion of the newspaper with the world cup theme, where the player who make more points win a prize (a MacBook).

In the game, you have to make some penalty shots. There are 3 stages with 5 kicks each on. When you go to a next stage, things are go to be harder, the wind will add some difficulty to your shots and the goalkeeper gets smarter.

The game had a great feedback from the participants, including a newspaper article with a review about it. Some people have played the game about 160 times, trying to make more points and win the prize.
