This game isn't as good as World Bash from a few competitions ago, however this time I did not have a team to make music and art for me, as well as to provide input for the Game Design. I also didn't have time off of my job this time, so I had to program in between work. I made it by myself as a test of the Engine I made recently based off of LibGDX, and to come to understand the accelerometer. I think it turned out pretty well all things considered. :)

If you're browsing through the source file code and don't understand the functions that are referenced under com.mwojnar.playgon, then you can contact me at [email protected] and I'll explain or send you my Engine's source code.

REGARDING RELEASE ON IPHONE:

Unfortunately my friend with the Mac is too busy atm to figure out how to export the game to iOS, and I'm not buying a Mac just so I can export games to iOS. Maybe later we'll release for iPhone, but probably not in time for judging. If anyone has any advice regarding exporting to iOS, it's always appreciated.

Thank you for taking the time to play my game!
