Llama Time

An exercise against time!... Christmas was approaching so fast and I needed something new to present and publish after Halloween.
I love christmas songs, but I hate the way its presented in YouTube videos, always the same sequence :( always predictible.
I love random things. well, there you have, Songs in random order. So easy... NO! It must have a Countdown!... It´s Christmas Time!. That was the challenge here. What´s the point if there isn´t a clock and a countdown. You better buy a CD, or some Itunes album, or choose a YouTube video instead.

It showed me that a clock is a must have for any Apple TV app. Why?... ´cos you get lost in time once you´re playing, watching or doing anything on a TV. Looked simple, but again, showed me a new direction. Thank you Yatamiyoq, my beautiful llama, in your first great appereance in the big screen!

Multiplication Tables

A straight approach here, almost a copy/paste, but this time in english, so we can put a foot in a huge market. It proved that I was right, was downloaded in thousends almost by schools since I saw interesting statistics here. The first introduction to another character... Yatamiyoq, a nice white llama that you´ll see in a future project, my first Apple TV app published for Christmas time.

Multiplicaciones

Using Touch Banderas as an inspiration, I was thinking about a truly random game to help kids learn multiplication tables, I first though in spanish since is my original language and ´cos there are few or none like this. In order to create a more kid friendly app, I´ve used one of my first characters, showed previously in Crossing Peru, Galito, a native peruvian bird called Gallito de las Rocas.

Crossing Peru

My first attempt to code a game. Looking for a game to get inspired, this was simple to code, entirely using SpriteKit as an engine, was pleasant to develop. 90% of the time invested here was for graphic design and looking for characters... Using rich peruvian ancient cultures as inspiration, instead of pipes here are Chullpas (kind of incan towers), as a background 3 different scenarios, a desertic coast in wich gigantic geoglyps are located, the Nazca lines. the andean mountains and the amazon jungle. if you reach 5500 points, you´ll discover a really nice surprise... the Machu Picchu. Here I show my first character... Galito. It´s a native peruvian bird named Gallito de las Rocas.

Touch Banderas

Touch Banderas is the first app that I´ve published. Was just an exercise about how difficult could be the entire process of create, develop, code until the finish product.

It was a great experience, 'cos was the first time in many years that I start to use again a laptop. I'm totally mobile since the first iPhone in 2007, and this was develop in 2015.
