A top down world, you have to collect the coins and power ups. But where does this world come from? From your GPS!
In GeoQuest, information from the Real World is used to create and influence the Game World.
Level generation is controlled by the physical location of your device. Is the current level too hard? Just go over the next block to look for a new one. Did you find a level with a lot of loot? Try to remember where you played, and you can play it again.
WARNINGS
(0) If you find a locked door, the key is ALWAYS on another level. Go find it and return. Behind the door is a lot of points.
(1) When playing on android, if your location services is disabled, the game will crash after the splash screen. Sorry. I know how to fix this bug and will push a patch to the Play Store soon. Until then, make sure location services is on.
(2) The main idea of the game only works on mobile devices. There is a Desktop version if you can't use the Android version, but you need a mobile device for the full experience.
(3) The 3rd screenshot is a QR code with a link to the play store page.
Hey guys, sorry for all the crashes. It worked on my nexus 7 and my fujitsu phone, but there is obviously something missing, might be an API thng. If you could play the Playstore version so I get crash reports ( or send me logcat reports if you know how to) that would be awesome.
Running the .jar, I ended up spawning with coordinates that made it impossible to get any keys. Game looks like it would be fun on an actual phone, though.
OMG, I played the desktop version and it is really awesome, but what makes the game awesome is the innovative idea and a perfect interpretation of the theme!
Decent entry, though the power-up descriptions left me somewhat confused about what they actually did. u_u" Also, at the beginning I had no idea I'm supposed to collect the keys in other worlds, thus I was wandering aimlessly in the first level. ^^"
Awww... I wish I had an android device to test with. I tried the desktop version and it look so much fun, although the controls was very difficult. The music really sets the mood. Nice entry, man.

It was on android 4.1.2 on Xperia J.
I like the idea, it's simple but playable! Too bad that sometimes it's nearly impossible to outsmart enemies.
Thingo: The coordinates on the Jar are different every time you play :-)

It took me a couple of levels to understand what to do though.
