Games I have played: Sugar Blast

Recently, I have played a game made by Rovio Entertaiment, the Angry Bird maker, called Sugar Blast. Following you can see the main scene of the game. Personally, I really like the art style of the game especially those cute mini figures.



I have not found a game very interesting with challenges such as the "choco challange" show in the following pictures. The challenges usually last several days and the top 3 will get gold, silver, and bronze medals. The player will get match with players of similar levels so that the race is more exciting.

Beside the challenges, there is also event such as caching rainbow candies or stars which will get the player different in game rewards.


In addition, a player can create a team or join another team created by other player.


Below is a video on a demo play. In the demo, I have played a level using special skills such as the magic guy to re-arrange the layout and the "powers-up" to bomb a large area. There is also "relax gummy" who can pick up one item on the game screen. Also, the demo showed that a player can get extra moves by watching an advertisement - only available once per day.



And finally is the video demo of getting a box of rewards.

How does virtual reality (VR) work?

Today, I learned a basic of how VR works and want to share you my short summary: VR feel can be achieved by using head mounted displays to show different 2D pictures (different angles, depth) to each of a user' eyes to immerse the feeling of staying in a 3D world to the user. The immersion can be increased by increasing the field of view (typical field of view is 100 to 110 degree).  FPS requires at least 60fps for the user to feel okay. Different trackings such as head tracking, motion tracking, and eye tracking decide when to show which pictures provide more complete VR experience. After learning this basic, I am interested in making some experiments with VR application for Android phones and tablets. I will share those learning experience after the experiments.
