Bucketman - coloring your city [out now for free]

General (non-technical) New Apps / Works in Progress
#1

Hey everybody,

it took me quite some time, but finally I want to present to you my game „Bucketman – coloring your city“.

I used this forum a lot and could find solutions to almost all of my problems, either by reading or by asking. I would be happy you could have a look onto my game and even more happy about some feedback.

I started this game with the idea of Pacman in the streets of the world, aka in google maps.

By the time it became way more and now my Pacman (Bucketman) can jump and throws paints that he has to collect as well as water, and google maps became openstreetmap.

The main theme is still Pacman, you have to run around, collect some things, avoid other things and if you pic up super things you can kill the other things that were dangerous before.

I included a timer and also a skill system that allows you to become better and better, all by exchanging paints and water. There are two game modi, mission and survival. In the missions you gather skills and features and in the survival maps you collect paints and also can submit your score to a leaderboard to compete with your friends.

The survival mode offers three different types of maps: current position, random maps and saved maps.

The current position is … well, your current position ie your neighbourhood.

Random maps are maps from a pool of maps that are, until now, selected by me but I am working on a function to include the current position maps into this pool, so everybody can play everybody elses maps.

Saved maps are your current or random maps that you decided to save to play them without gps and internet.

wow, lots of text, maybe better watch this video which shows the game in action:

Until now the game is android only and can be found in the playstore here (its
free):

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.web.butzbach.felix.bucketman

Once again I want to say thank you to this amazing comunity and of course to corona sdk
that made it possible to build a game from zero to playstore in 7 months.

Best regards,

Felix

I updated the game in the playstore and I included an easter special that is valid until 24.4.2014.

The new update brings new missions, new sidemissions, one new skill and a new feature to the game.
With this new missions the game has now a real end and the survival mode is also more challenging and fun.

The easter special includes the new feature “presents” for free (until 24.4.2014)
This means that you get EVERY new stage a present that you can collect
and you will get up to 40 water, 40 paints, 40 seconds or 4 lifes!

I fixed various other little bugs and I also reduced the amount of advertisment in the game.

Give it a try!
