Mom look what I Made!

(first a little awkward) Hello, blogg!

Last year I made my self a goal I was going to make a game for iOS (iPhone and iPad) and release it!

My name is Finn, I sit in a wheelchair and I make apps/games for iOS! :) This is also my first blog post so don't expect much from it...

I've always been interested in games and how they were made. I remember as a kid playing videogames wondering how those wizard, also called game developers, made Mario move and jump like a maniac in Super Mario 64 for Nintendo 64. Now that I can make games myself and publish them, and beeing those wizards that make games I truly appreciate games more than before.

The games i'm making focuses on simplicity. Games should be simple, easy to pick up and away (expecially for iPhones and iPads). Simple rules, graphics and mechanics makes games more fun while on the move (in my opinion).

Therefore I made Dot Clash. Dot Clash is a game where the goal is just to merge the black dot into the other larger dot. Like this:



The game is hard, but simple to play. where you touch the screen the dots go in the opposite direction. The easiest game to compare it to is air hockey.

If you want to try the game search, search for Dot Clash on App Store and download the app which has this as the app icon: 
or just use this link right here: Dot Clash

Enjoy the game if you download it! :) 
Peace out blog!

Btw, mom is proud of me! :)

It's my sixth post... Am I a pro blogger soon?... Anyways, howdy folks! Two post ago , read this first before going all in on this one, we became familiar to Xcode and it's wizardry. This time we'll not become masterchefs like Paula Deen, rather we'll be cooking up a small game (programming) in Swift (No, not Taylor Swift... But Apples, no not the fruit... But the programming language that the company Apple made, that is called Swift, there!). Okay, let's start! step numero uno: Setting variables and SK's. A variable called 'var' in swift is like rice or potatoes, works with everything, just remember to declare what the variable is. For example that a potato is a vegetable, but since swift isn't something you can eat we have to declare potato in a different way. Now, if I write in gameScene.swift: var potato = SKSpriteNode() I declare potato as an SKSpriteNode which is a texture.  Now that we are done decla

My cat chewed on my charing cable and destroyed it........... Therefore I was gone for a while. Also it was Christmas! :) Hope you all had an amazing Christmas and if you don't celebrate, hope you had and still have an awesome holiday! Put your hands on the keyboard Follow theese steps It's about to get schwifty in here I'm mr Noobgamemaker and today I will about how to make a Timer in Swift (the programming language that Apple uses, not Taylor Swift). The Timer() can be used in many situations, but today we'll be using it as a countdown to end a game. :) Like the Get Schwifty song made the giant heads dissapear in the Rick And Morty episode. So let's get staaaaaarted! :) Step one: Make two variables and declare one as a Timer() and the other one as SKSpriteNode() in the startGame function which we made last time:) If you haven't read  the last post  where I explained the basics about declaring variables I highly recommend reading that p

Well, hi again :D I just thought of something which I wanna write about! (which is unusual...) I Just thought of how we people think and learn. We read books, go to classes or use the internet to find the information we need. I speak for myself now, but I have always been original trying to bend knowlegde to my liking by thinking outside the box. I have a disability, which makes me unable to walk and my left arm is so spastic that I can't use it. This might seem weird, but actually grateful for my disability... Weird huh? But I think it has enabled to become more creative and solution oriented. I have always found a way to play video games with one hand (I've owned a PS4, PS3, PS2, PSP, Gameboy color, Gameboy SP, Nintendo DS, Gamecube and many more). And in school I always found youtube videos for the subjects I was taking instead of reading the books we had. I'm trying to think outside the box now that i'm making games to iPhones and iPads and life in general
