Hit That Thing - my first game

This is the first game I ever published. I've had some projects before, mostly for learning purposes.

Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ihavenodomain.htt.android

 The idea of this game came to me when I saw lots of popular games being like: start, score 1 point, say it's easy, lose.

In this game you're supposed to hit some coconuts in less than a second. Each one has it's own timer so you should hit the one that was on the screen before the other. For example, coconut 1 has half a second left until you lose and coconut 2 has just appeared on the screen so it has 1 second left. If you hit coconut 2, you'll probably not have enough time to hit coconut 1 as well and you lose, but if you hit coconut 1 first, you'll still have some time to hit the other one and you can go on playing.


Features:
- 2 game modes:
- endless gameplay
- a nice, challenging or casual experience
- simple, cartoon graphics

To do list:
- achievements
- online leaderboard
- share on facebook and other social media buttons

I want to work with the community of my game. Features suggested by users will be on top of my To do list if I think they are good.

Circles - by Crystal Creativity

This is the first game that caught my eye.

Circles is a casual game, but keep in mind that casual doesn't mean extremely easy, it's actually challenging!
Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jmr.circles
Developer : https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Crystal+Creativity



You have to pop circles before they disappear. Different colors reward you with different amount of points. Black circles take one life from you. Try to get the best high score. Just as simple as that.

Features:
-3 different game modes
-3 leader boards and numerous amounts of achievements
-Endless game play
-A new experience each time
-Hours of fun
-Lots of time spent at the game over screen
-In-game shop

The developer takes great care of this games. I've noticed a bug in the first version , I've sent him a message and the bug was gone in a few hours. Keep up the good work!

About Indie Android Games

This is a blog I created to share Android games made by individuals or small companies.
As an individual game developer myself, I've looked on forums searching for ways to promote, design and publish my app. I've found many great games with less than 100 downloads in a few months just because indie developers can't afford professional advertising like big companies.
